Thanks for advice and have had a look at those micro PCs and they can get as expensive. My Mum is not a typical 77 year old she helps to design website content, slideshows and also has digital sewing machines needing a few USB ports. She keeps far too much crap on her machine "just in case"...

My mum has a 6 year old machine, originally Win 7 bought and upgraded to win 10. Going to replace the lot (she doesnt need to upgrade parts - so this machine will last her a similar time). Anything I have missed or got wrong - planning on a Win 11 O/S and she already has a recent graphics card...

Hi, running a very old pairing of Cougar Mouse and KB bought from OCUK. Want a white mouse and mostly white keyboard Thinking of Corsair M65 for the mouse. Unsure as not much in the 100% of 85% TKL (no smaller) white keyboard range and never built a keyboard in my life. People stating that they...

Thanks for help, so after a small heart attack finding two bent pins on the Ryzen and straightening those up and then finding the Peerless Assassin provides much less room in the case for fat fingers. The CPU upgrade to Ryzen 7 5800 X3D went well (forgot I needed to boot into BIOS as it...

Bios updated to F52i, 5800X3D and ThermalRite Peerless Assassin ordered (so far) - thanks

My PSU is a Seasonic Focus 650W Gold (SSR-650EX) and 5 years old. Been sold as a rock. Will that do.

OK do decision made on the 5800X3D for the CPU, do I need a cooler (using Wraith at mo)? What is happening with the new Radeon cards? I can sort the Bios, CPU and potentially RAM as first £300 step. Thanks for advice so far

5 years ago (! time flies) I upgraded my kids PC with the above guts, plus 16Gb 3000Mhz Team Force Ram, new BeQuiet case, sensible PSU. He is 16, passed his GCSEs and has been working and is looking to upgrade (using his money). Gaming PC - Siege, Rayman, Fortnite, RDR, etc I am thinking that...

So does that mean it doesn't matter which of the three I pick as haven't got £500

Or one of these : Dell 27 Curved Gaming Monitor – S2722DGM? Can anyone help. Only had TN screens before, does VA or IPS really matter?

My basket at OcUK: 1 x BenQ 27" MOBIUZ EX2710R 2560x1440 VA 165Hz 1ms FreeSync HDR400 Curved Widescreen Gaming Monitor (SKU: MO-13G-BQ) = £249.95 Total: £249.95 (includes delivery: £0.00) Which one is best the Benq (down from £500 really)? Or the Gigaybyte. Budget is £250 ish running a...

@mickyflinn thanks, forgot to check the speeds that the motherboard would take. So have ordered the Patriot 3600 and gone faster than existing. Cheers for help once more...

Does it matter which of these I buy? Assume the price difference is less than £5 My basket at Overclockers UK: 1 x Kingston Fury Beast 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit= £128.99 1 x Team Group Vulcan Z T-Force 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-25600C16 3200MHz Dual Channel Kit -...

Think it makes sense to go for new 32Gb and try and sell the single stick to someone else in my situation.

Thread hijack - same question please but my move is from a Ryzen 5 1600 AM4 3.6 Ghz on a Giagbyte AB350 motherboard? I cant get to 5000 series chips, I can only get to a 3600X, 3700, 3800 Think my board has updated Bios to take those CPUs. If not can do so Ta

So i have a machine (unfortunately not bought via OCUK) which has a single 16Gb Corsair Vengeance DD4 3200 16-20-20-38 1.35v. However, whilst I don't need to increase to 32GB now prices make sense and struggling to get my eldest anything else for Xmas. I am struggling to match the product code...
