    Silverstone ft02 replacement

    Just purchased a used 3090 and after doing a bit of reading it looks like it's not going to fit unless I do a bit of work. I am thinking it might be time to finally move on. What would you recommend as a replacement. Something like a fractal torrent? Thanks

    MSI optix mag274qrf-qd Panel Uniformity

    Hi, Just want to check is this normal for this type of display. This is the second one I have received due to the first having terrible grey uniformity and this one is exactly the same if not worse. With a white background the edges bleed to a cool grey! Would you consider this acceptable? I...

    4 sticks vs 2 sticks 64gb

    so if I paired 32gb 3600MHz Cl18 with Crucial Ballistix 64GB 3200MHz DDR4 2x32GB CL16 i shouldn't have any issues? Would the 3200 ram run at 3600?

    4 sticks vs 2 sticks 64gb

    Thanks for the input, never thought about doing that. Do you need to match the ram? Or can i get different speeds etc. Also with the little knowledge I have i thought 4 sticks caused instability? I need more ram as the 3d scenes I am working on keep running out of memory.

    Hi I have a 5950x with 2 sticks of ADATA XPG GAMMIX D10, 32GB (2 x 16GB), DDR4, 3600MHz Cl18 Is it worth adding 2 extra 32GB to this or get a new set of 32GB x 2 to get me to 64GB I have seen some Crucial Ballistix 64GB 3200MHz DDR4 2x32GB CL16 which would be within budget. Any advice much...

    Frequency and doubt over 5950x

    3ds max is still mostly single threaded for most tasks. Reading and writing is always slow due to this.

    Heatsink Orientation ?

    Hi thanks for the suggestions. The bracket circled in red is for 1155 socket. Besides it's the same length as the one included in the kit. The bracket on the motherboard should be more square so it would allow the heatsink to be rotated. If this is thermalrights solution to upgrading your...

    Heatsink Orientation ?

    Hi I just put together a new system. I was using a thermalright silver arrow from my old pc. I purchased a new AM4 bracket to mount the cooler. I am totally lost by this but I cant mount the cooler so it blows ait out of the case. I have to rotate it 90 degrees for it to sit onto the cpu. Does...

    Is the tomahawk still the best value board

    Hi hopefully I will be getting a 5950x this week. I need a motherboard and it seems that the x570 tomahawk is the best value option. I also see that the b550 unify is the same price. I won't use a 2nd gfx card but might use a second ssd in the future. Which one would be better? Thanks

    Broadband opinions

    Uno is much more then zen. Been looking into Zen and it seems like you get a decent router that you can keep after 12 months. I dont know what the plusnet one is like thou so still a bit undecided. What do you think of virgin. I can get 200mb for like £27 pm. Thats pretty amazing value...

    Broadband opinions

Just wanted opinions if it is worth it with all the negative press. Or are the others; talktalk, sky or bt...

    5950x build

    Cheers, will get the bracket ordered today then. Will 3600mhz ram improve performance noticeably or is that more for gaming? 32GB would be better. I guess it will have to be Corsair Vengeance LPX due to the cooler. Is the MSI B550 motherboard the same as a X570 apart from wifi? Dont really...
