I'm in my first cyber/infosec job after being in infra/IT service delivery for the last 12 years. I have no industry specific qualifications although I am doing a CISSP. Speaking with long timers in the industry the opinion is that certificates are good for getting the interview but don't...

It’s really good, I’m glad I bought it. It doesn’t feel as sharp as the Masutani and as others have said it needs some looking after. Chopping something acidic like tomatoes I swear you can almost see the metal tainting. It needs to be looked after but my main concern before purchasing it was...

Made a few purchases today. I've been using a set of Ikea knives for the last 12 years and whilst they've been okay, I've found myself sharpening them after every other use and I felt like it was time to invest a bit. I ordered the following: Yoshida Blue #2 Kurouchi 165mm Nakiri - this isn't...

I had it done on the NHS about 4 years ago. The procedure was done at my local GP and I was in and out within 30 mins. Before the procedure I had to do a small questionnaire with the Dr, to make sure it was appropriate etc (FWIW I was 30, married with 2 kids) which was fine. The actual procedure...

Thanks, I flipped the bottom set after I took the photos. I don't think it looks as clean though as you can see all the cable guides etc, bit difficult in this case as its nearly all glass and it doesn't make sense to flip the top set on the AIO to intake. Spec is as follows: AMD Ryzen 5 3600...

Just finished a build for a lads birthday. Spec isn’t amazing but at that age it’s more show and less go. Really pleased with how it’s turned out. His parents originally paid some fly by night PC builder website that disappeared with their money so I offered to step in at the last minute and...

Exactly this. We took a 4TB on premise file server with 7 department network shares on it and stuck it in OneDrive using separate O365 groups. People can sync the folders to their file explorer using OneDrive Sync and Files On Demand means that no one is gonna fill up their disk by accident. No...

Picked up the base game direct from Ubisoft for £16.50 which I thought was reasonable considering the list price. Absolutely love it, brings back memories of playing AoE II into the night and being knackered for school the next day. My son is less than impressed that i've highjacked his PC to...

Hi Guys, Looking to build a gaming PC for my son for Christmas. I've had a bit of a read and have come up with the following: BitFenix Prodigy M Mini-ITX Cube Case - Midnight Black £73.99* Raijintek Eos RGB Rainbow Complete Water Cooling - 240mm £64.99* AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT Six Core 4.5GHz...

Here you go, playing Prep3d v4, flying around Heathrow with add-on weather and scenery, 1080p res 8xAF and 4xAA, I was getting between 10-12 FPS according to Afterburner GPU usage doesn't really go over 30% where as one core on the CPU is maxed. This piece of software is single core performance...

The CPU, RAM and Mobo was a skip find :) I figured 20GB would be somehow better than 16GB so i stuck it in. I have looked at B450 boards, specifically the MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC AM4 DDR4 ATX board, would anyone recommend? Thanks B

Every piece of advice I've had so far has been that its the CPU holding the GPU back. I have considered swapping the card out for something newer but until now everyone has said I should be looking at swapping the CPU out. Why do you think this is the case? I'd ideally be looking at doing one or...

Hi Guys, Last Christmas, I built this machine for my son, and myself (just a little bit) https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/the-new-cases-gallery.18571712/page-68#post-32240385 Its got the following spec: i5 4670 20GB of RAM Asus B85 motherboard of some description Crucial M500 SSD...

Almost, 1 8gig stick and 3 4gig sticks. Neither here nor there tbh, a bit irritating that I can’t run a matching pair of 16gig. But it was free so I’m not complaining, if it turns out he sticks with PC gaming I’ll purchase an 8th gen bundle at some point.

Build is pretty much done for my sons first PC for Xmas. Details as follows: i5 4670 20GB of RAM Asus B85 motherboard of some description Crucial M500 SSD GTX 970 (off the MM) Bitfenix PSU ID Cooling AIO Total cost for the build was £398, the mobo/ram/cpu was a skip find, SSD was also a throw...

What did you do for lighting inside the case? I'm just about to buy this case on the strength of your lighting, looks amazing.

Pah! Shows how much I don't keep up with the times, maybe this will work instead..

Hi Mark, Don't worry about your Birdseye, its a very small and compact plant, here is mine from 2016, excuse the slightly blurry photo. It'll grow just fine and will give you hundreds of bullet sized chillies even in the first year. P.S I am pleased you are happy with your plants ;) Dan

Sorry to hear of your sad new Biffa, cancer is a terrible disease. I'm very sorry to say that as i've long since had any spare hardware to fold/boinc with i've not visited these forums as much as I should have. I have since now got some spare hardware to donate to the cause but I came into this...

Worked for me thanks
