    New gaming build

    Personally the setup you have opted for is a good price to performance ratio based on your budget. As for cooling, i would go air as there is less parts to go wrong, in this case just the fan and unlike an aio the pump is also an issue. Replacing a fan is far easier and cheaper than the whole...

    Discord

    Forgot all about dsr but that didn't work. it would seem the size stays the same. Tested my 1440p primary monitor while watching 3 streams and got the same size streams. The higher resolution monitor just increases sharpness where discord is concerned. Thanks for checking ;)

    Discord

    So i currently use a secondary 24" 1080p monitor for discord so i can watch my friends in games that we all play together to help each other in these coop games. When i watch 2-4 streams at once they go very small aspect. I'm wondering how different would it be if i upgraded to a 24" 1440p...

    ASRock Z590 Phantom Gaming-ITX/TB4

    sold as seen usually means they know it don't work but are hoping those that want to gamble maybe able to repair. These are a no go area for a cheap upgrade route and would say the board is more than likely bricked long before you got it and you have wasted £49 :(

    Creation Finance

    well it turns out that creation made a mistake during my plan. After i called them to find out what was going on they informed me i did in fact pay 7.495% interest. the 29.9% is over a 24 month period. 14.95% over 12 months and 7.495% over 6 months. Why this was not informed to me is odd but...

    Creation Finance

    Guessing you guys are right. I brought it as i needed a replacement at the time and have purchased from currys many a time. Just a shame that creation finance stats they will give a full refund upon an item being returned to currys but say nothing in regards to the interest. Oh well. Lesson...

    Creation Finance

    So i have a your plan account with currys with a £300 limit. I purchased a monitor (£159) that 6 months later ended up having a power fault. I then returned the item to currys to which i got a refund to my credit account. I had already paid off the monitor including 29.9% interest (£206 total)...

    Budget Monitor Primarily for Office Work

    if your happy with 1440p 27" you can get the aoc q27v4ea for around £160-£170. i use the 24" version which is around £130-£140 and it's a great monitor for the price. i have purchased more expensive 1440p 75hz monitors that have performed worse than this ;)

    New GPU and CPU installed - Crippled PC

    open control panel, click view network status and tasks, select change adapter settings, right click your wifi adapter, properties, then configure, click advanced tab then look through the settings below to find channel width and set to 20mhz for 2.4ghz and 5ghz if you have it :)

    New GPU and CPU installed - Crippled PC

    I saw this issue recently and oddly enough with an rtx 4070 super. started to see a pattern. However i managed to fix the issue by opening the wifi adapter properties and putting the adapter to 20mhz only. For some odd reason this worked but did slightly drop the wifi speeds. My only guess is...

    Thanks OCUK

    Just want to say thank you to the 2 guys at ocuk (sorry forgot your names) that helped me with my never ending issue with dpd recently. I had to return a monitor due to very bad ips glow. Collection was booked next day and driver didn't show. The next day ocuk rearranged collection and the...

    8Pack Overclocked Bundle - RAM upgrade

    i had the same issue and thankfully was able to get the same kit i have now as 2x16gb that didn't break my OC. Having a weaker imc really doesn't help when running 4 sticks, but only way to find out is trial and error. i always try and run 2 sticks when i can but in your circumstance thats a...

    RGB 6x Corsair fans and a Corsair RGB Hiub issue

    i use signal rgb instead of msi mystic light. yeah signal rgb uses a little more power and resources but is far more stable. the free version is all i use and works like a charm. maybe give that ago unless your happy with it all being set now :)

    RGB 6x Corsair fans and a Corsair RGB Hiub issue

    could well be a faulty hub but don't go spending more money just to figure out whether it's the fans or hub. As Rugrat has said change the order of the fans. Even reinstalling the msi centre can help :)

    RGB 6x Corsair fans and a Corsair RGB Hiub issue

    are you using the msi mystic light to control the fans leds?

    Noises since upgrade

    this almost sounds like glass cracking. you said when you take the side panel off the sound goes away. could you check gpu temps as the gpu could be pushing enough heat out towards the side panel so that when tightened it is causing the side panel to rub against the thumb screws as it expands. i...

    Game delay (need help)

    You have an old setup. cs2 and minecraft are more cpu bound than gpu. So it's likely your cpu is bottlenecking your performance. This is probably causing latency issues in game that is higher latency than your ping. Your PC is trying to play catchup so you are getting a delay in game that you're...

    Possible Combi Boiler Issue!

    Only when the boiler is running but it's not a plastic burning smell. Still waiting on my landlord to send someone out. He said to be safe he will get someone on it and have yet to hear back. So will give until Thursday and call back to make sure it's sorted in case it's something more serious.
