    Keep RX 5700 XT or Wait For New GPU's?

    I've just bought a Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT Gaming OC 8G (£344) and have a 30 day cooling off period. I'm happy enough with the card, but wonder if it's worth returning it and waiting for the next gen GPUs, due out pretty soon? Will the gain be worth the wait, as I'll have to go back to my...

    Right, the B550's are out and I've adjusted slightly, although I'll keep the ram and GPU, as I already own them and they're good enough for me. Fractal Design Meshify C Midi ASUS TUF GAMING B550-PLUS Ryzen 7 3700X/3800X Asus 1660 Super Corsair RM 750/TX 650 CORSAIR HYDRO SERIES H115I RGB...

    Yet Another New Build Advice Thread

    I'm out of the loop, not having built a pc in about 7 years, so am after some advice please. I've come up with the following and would appreciate some improvements, also, should I hold out a few months for any new gear coming, or just coming in stock again, also some future proofing would be...

    Upgrade Or Sell?

    Bad wording on my part, I meant to type, sell the computer itself and get a new one, not just the GPU.

    Upgrade Or Sell?

    Thanks for the replies, much appreciated. I was looking at the 1660 super, a little more than I'd like to pay, but it should be a good upgrade. I did look at the 1650 super and RX590 as well, but according to the reviews, the RX is more power hungry, runs hotter and makes more noise, plus I'm...

    Upgrade Or Sell?

    Hello, Although my computer is just over 2 years old and I don't game that much (F1 2019 and Doom Eternal at the moment), I'd like to get better GPU performance. Graphics apart, the system performs great and my building days are well behind me now, so would a £200 GPU upgrade be worth it...

    PC Automatically Restarting After Shutdown

    I recently had a GPU become faulty and since I replaced it, every time I shutdown from Win10, the system turns itself off and automatically restarts after a couple of seconds, so I have to pull the plug out. I've cleared CMOS, with and with the battery removed, Turn on fast start up unticked...

    Computer Crashing During Games

    Well I got another GPU and it's working fine now. There was some residue on the old GPU and I've no idea what it was, as the inside of the computer was very clean, no dust or anything. Now I've just got the problem of the system restarting after I shut it down, either via Windows or manually...

    Computer Crashing During Games

    Thanks for the reply mate. I dropped the CPU to stock and underclocked the GPU but the problem has got worse. Sometimes the PC won't restart and when it does, the screen has the green lines all over them and I can't even reinstall the graphics driver now, so I'm stuck in 800x600 as well...

    Computer Crashing During Games

    I bought a computer from Overclockers just over two years ago and it's been great, until the last couple of days, when playing F1 2017 and COD, the system then freezes, as per the picture and reboots. I've updated everything, as per the Asus website,but, as I don't build my own computers...

    New PSU Advice Please

    Cheers for that, looks like I'll go 600/650 to be on the safe side.:) Are the OCZ/Coolermaster/Be Quiet range any good, or should I stick with Corsair?

    New PSU Advice Please

    I won't be oc'ing the chip above 4.6 and have no intention of adding another GPU.

    New PSU Advice Please

    I'm having trouble booting with my set up and have been advised to try another psu, as the one I currently have, Corsair 620W, I bought second hand about four years ago and could be causing the problem. My spec: MSI P67A GD65 i2500K @ 4.6 (1.31v) HD5850 Extreme Crucial M4 128G 2 x 7200 sata...

    Booting Problems

    Thanks for your help mate. I disconnected everything apart from the SSD drive, GPU, Silver Arrow fans and case fans, but the problem still exists. If I need to get another psu, I don't want to spend anymore than I have to really, so it would need to power everything in my first post, with...

    Booting Problems

    A quick update, I've tried everything I can think of, various BIOS', one stick of memory, clearing CMOS, but when booting, the thing still comes up with the blank screen and 98 in the bottom right hand corner, until I keep pressing the power button until it eventually boots. MSI have...

    Should Wenger go? (Spoilers!)

    I've been increasingly frustrated and after yesterday, goddam annoyed by the lack of transfer activity over the last couple of seasons. We all know that we've been lacking in the middle of defence for a while, yet the two purchases last year haven't solved the problem and serious quality...
