    Memory upgrade advice

    Thanks everyone! Edit: I bought 2 x 8GB for £60 and they work with my existing 8GB stick so I'm on 24GB RAM :)

    Memory upgrade advice

    I have 8GB and I want more RAM, so that is a given. The initial stick runs fine without any issues. Are you suggesting to leave the existing 8GB (CMK16GX4M2B3000C15) stick solo and add in a pair of compatible / matching 4GB sticks? Can they work independently of the existing stick? I agree...

    Memory upgrade advice

    The motherboard is Asus PRIME Z270-P. I think the BIOS uses XMP, I didn't do any tweaking of this. On the CMK16 chip: XMP profile XMP-2998 Specification DDR4-2998 Voltage level 1.350 Volts Min Cycle time 0.667 ns (1499 MHz) Max CL 15.0

    Memory upgrade advice

    Hi, I bought a gaming PC back in March 2017 and I am looking to upgrade the RAM. My PC was built with a single 8GB chip which using CPU-Z seems to have a serial number relating to a 2 x 8GB configuration. The part number is: CMK16GX4M2B3000C15. I am finding it difficult to source a single chip...

    Can overclockers do a better deal?

    Oh it's been a while since I've posted on here. My aim was for someone to show that overclockers is cheaper if they are rather than advertise anyone else. If the site needs to be cagey then it's leads me to think there might be a reason. Not a problem as I have other options.

    Can overclockers do a better deal?

    Hi I'm looking to buy a new desktop PC. My current rig has lasted me about 8-9 years, I invested in the first place and then have been tweaking it here and there over the years. It has served me but I want something new. Looking to spend around £1,000 preferably below but I don't mind slightly...

    Windows 7 Installation

    Hi, A couple of days ago I bought a new SSD from OCUK and I have tried to install Windows 7 using the CD and it froze and the completing installation point. I restarted the PC by the power switch and now it says "The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered or an expected error" and...

    Quieter - not necessarily cooler :cool:

    Thanks for your suggestions. The Prolimatech Megahalems Rev B CPU Cooler seems to be efficient as cooling but also pretty much silent. The price makes this good value too. Cheers, R

    Quieter - not necessarily cooler :cool:

    I have an Intel Core 2 Quad Q940 Quad Core Processor (2.66GHz, 12MB Cache, 1333MHz) Would the Akasa do just as well for this?

    Quieter - not necessarily cooler :cool:

    Hi, I am looking to get a new heatsink/fan for my CPU. I currently have a OCZ Vendetta on an Intel LGA775 socket. I am most interested in finding a quieter setup rather than a cooler one. I have searched and come up with the SilenX iXtrema Effizio EFZ-120HA4. Although it seems to do a...

    Create folder Excel VBA

    At work we use excel as a work log and can click on a hyperlink that links to the folders of work people have produced. It seems like a good idea to create a macro that will create the work folder too (to save people from having to do it manually) I am looking for a user friendly function...

    yes , I have DDR ram and AGP. Is it easy to get an Intel motherboard that is compatable with all my current hardware that works with AMD?

    Single to dual core

    Would you expect a big jump in heat or the need for a more hefty power supply?

    Single to dual core

    I have a AMD 939 socket motherboard with single core processor. Is it possible to wack a new dual core processor in that has a 939 socket as well? (like the AMD Athlon 64 FX FX-60 Dual Core Processor) and is it worth it? (I have AMD Athlon 64 4000+ now)

    What's the best?

    My spec is AMD Athlon 64 4000+ (Running at about 2500MHz, 210MHz FSB, 1MB L2 Cache, socket 939) 1536 MB DDR SDRAM NVIDIA GeForce 6800 LE • Video RAM: 128 MB Windows XP Home Edition If you want to know more, let me know. I don't play games as much any more. I bought my pc in Jan...

    What's the best?

    I think I will go for the dual core 3800+ and keep the opteron on my wishlist! Changing to c2d sounds like a lot of hassle to me, surely there will be issues of compatability of my other components?

    What's the best?

    Do you think I would be seeing a big difference from what I have now if I wentr to the Dual 3800+ ?

    What's the best?

    I wouldn't spend more than £100 I like the AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 3800+ suggested I wanted to check also if most programs are able to make best use of the dual processor. I don't want to be only running 'half' of the chip i.e. 1GHz!

    I have an A8V deluxe motherboard and I have been reading the manual and under CPU it says: Socket 939 for AMD Athlon FX / Athlon 64 processor. Supports AMD 64 architecture that enables simulataneous 32-bit and 64-bit computing. Supports AMD 'cool and quiet' technology. I have an AMD...
