Personally I like these forums but OCUK customer service is awful, actually I would even say non-existent. I guess it depends on your personal experience but I would never order from here again.

I've only had this 5770 for a month and it had been working fine. However I installed Dragon Age the other day and noticed I was getting tearing and black squares whilst playing, even with latest catalyst drivers. One morning I powered up the PC and got a blank screen so reseated graphics card...

Yes. The bios was cleared as I had to re-enter the settings when booting up afterwards.

Ok so reseting the BIOS didn't make any difference so I guess it's either the PSU or the card itself.... Can anyone recommend a decent PSU for my rig that would be fairly future proof if I decide to change the graphics card aswell?

No I don't have another machine with an SLI slot :( so I'll try clearing the BIOS and see if that works.

No I don't have another PSU :( How do I go about clearing the BIOS? Can this sort of thing happen even though it's been running fine up to now? Edit: sorry don't have another SLI card either...

I recently upgraded my system (see sig), all except the graphics card and PSU. This has all been working fine and stable for a couple of weeks but today all of a sudden I'm getting no display when I boot up :(. There are no beeps or anything to indicate a problem. I can plug the LCD into the...

How well would this system handle future upgrades? For example, would it support an ATI 5870 and Phenom II 955?

You might want to consider an OC complete system, such as:- http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FS-103-OE&tool=5

Or not? ;)

Just checked my original correspondence with them and I have an email stating they'll review my salary after 6 months. This isn't in my offer of employment but I guess I'll wait until then anyway.

Normally they give pay rises in January, so I'd have a long wait :(

I'm just about to reach the end of my 3 month probationary period as an IT support consultant. Would you say it's normal or rather cheeky to expect a pay rise at this point?

Any stats yet?

Yes try this :)

Very impressed with my Audi A3 3 door S-line with black leather :D. Quite cheap now if you want a 2nd hand one.
