    Advice choosing new card please :)

    Hi guys, I've been away from the scene a while, so need help choosing a card for a new Z87 gaming build... I've got approx £350 to spend and been looking at the GTX 770, would this be a good choice or is there better for the money ? Also should I go for the 2gb or 4gb versions ? Thanks :)

    8gb (3.99gb usable) - tried everything, need ideas

    I'm not familiar with your bios, but on mine it wasn't in the memory or cpu overclock section, it was in a seperate advanced tab with "boot guard" and "cool and quiet" took me a while to find it. Maybe yours doesn't have it, but deffo worth a good look. I also remember at the time someone...

    Help! Bizarrely slow bootup?

    I have a similar problem myself ranging from slow boot to no boot, unplugged the secondary drive and voila. If it is that, try the drive in different ports and different cables to rule that out, i'm still trying to diagnose mine.

    Random boot failure

    My system was working fine for a few weeks and then started with random boot issues, which seems to be related to my old sata1 maxtor drive that's installed as a secondary. When it first happened i could hear the secondary drives start spinning up as normal, but then it just froze and there...

    Mouse trouble

    I play all types of games, but fps and rpg mainly. I just looked at the razor, its a lot more than i'd usually spend on a mouse, but if it's worth it then the cost isn't really an issue. Thanks

    Mouse trouble

    I checked all settings and cant see anything wrong, also messed with the drivers with no change. I'll try it in my laptop when i get chance, but i'm thinking the micro switch is faulty. It's pretty annoying when i'm trying to highlight something and it keeps opening it instead :mad: Guess...

    HDD recomendation please ?

    Hi, Is the (Samsung SpinPoint F3 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache) still the best drive to go for ? It's to go with my new Intel setup with the Asus P8Z68-V mb, and will be used as the boot drive. Thanks :)

    upgrade advice please

    Yep other parts in sig, all i have is the bracket on the heatsink that is installed on my athlon, so i guess it wont fit then, bummer. Although i guess it wouldn't hurt to give it a try, and i can use the retail heatsink until i get another if it wont fit. Thanks mate, much appreciated !

    upgrade advice please

    thanks mate, pretty much what i was looking at nice :) A few more questions if anyone can answer - Do all the 1155 socket boards have the same maximum cpu capability ? (for future upgrades) Will my 520w OCZ powerstream be capable with the new Intel setup ? Also will my AC Freezer 64...

    Can't figure out how to format my HDD

    I had a similar problem to this and it drove me bananas, mine was fixed by unplugging everything out the back of the mb ! I'm not sure if there was a short in a usb port or something, but it worked after that, worth a shot anyway mate.

    upgrade advice please

    Hi guys, I was initially looking at the Phenom and AM3+ route, but correct me if i'm wrong, from what i've been reading it seems Intel is a better all rounder for a bit more cash ? Although i could do, i don't really want to go crazy on the spend, so somewhere approx £300 for (mb, ram...
