Because of lockdowns and weather I've not taken my van (VW t5 2.5 TDI) out for a spin for a while and the battery isn't charged enough to start her, just a few clickings, it was a new battery mid-last summer so I think it's just a bit flat. I use it for "van life" climbing/mtb adventures so...

Looking to get a new monitor with a display port input since my new PC has DisplayPort and HDMI and neither of my current old (excess 10 years) ones has anything bar DVI/d-sub. Got the list down to an Acer XF240QS or an AsusVG249Q, the Asus is just over £200 and Acer just under. The Acer is TN...

I'd hope not, only had the system for ~11 months and was a complete Overclockers build. But will try the slightly underclocked version. Thanks.

GPU: PowerColor Radeon RX 590 Red Dragon 8192MB CPU: 3700x - Not o/c. Motherboard: MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2x16GB) PSU: Bitfenix Whisper M Series 550W Case: Phanteks Eclipse P400 2x120mm intake fans I have the above set up and the system is crashing when the...

MSI seems to have done the trick, it's humming away steadily now. I'd rather a bit of consistent noise than none then all. Will try it with some games tomorrow. Cheers.

I've tried the fan curve in the Radeon software but not that, I'll give it a go. tvm.

Less a specific tech problem more advice. Running an rx590 8gb which is lovely but noisy at full chat. What I'm seeing from the Radeon software is zero rpm until it hits temp then it spools up to ~1400rpm, it then cools down enough to drop to zero rpm. There's no gradual ramping, just binary...

Age - 37 Height - 170cm Weight - 68.8kg FTP (60min) - 222 W/kg - 3.23 Nice 10W gain between Xmas and now, making good progress towards 3.5w/kg. Not eating all the lockdown junk would help I bet!

I've got an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X with a Cooler Master MasterLiquid Lite 120 and the CPU fan will spool up and down like a sine wave. I was thinking of adding an extra 120mm fan to the other side of the radiator so that they would both spin a low rpm instead of one spooling up to 1600rpm when...

As the title suggests I'm looking at a prebuilt system and the gfx card I've selected is advertised with a game if purchased individually. Does anyone know if this is included? Would be cool since I would then have a modern have to play.

And that shows how up to date I am!

I'm currently speccing a new OCuk prebuilt machine and since I've not built (or bought) a PC for a good 8 or 9 years I'm a bit out of touch on good h/w trends. I am getting back on the learning train, plus a bit of gaming so need something with a bit of horsepower since it will have a bunch of...

Username - Fire Munki Age - 37 Height - 170cm Weight - 68kg FTP (60min) - 212 W/kg - 3.10 Gear - Stages gen3 - wahoo bolt Info - indoor trainer road with a goal of 3.5w per kilo after Xmas Although it could be a case of only reporting when you are fast/strong some of the folks here have some...

Current build, saved so I don't forget...

Should say this came out ~£1300 in total which is about as much as I want to spend.

I've not built (or bought) a PC for a good 8 or 9 years and am getting back on the learning train, plus a bit of gaming so need something with a bit more horsepower. Everything on my current pc is out of date (or beat up looking at the case) bar two SSD so it's a whole build. It will be both...

Eye mask and good earplugs. When I'm on a night (22:00 to 06:00) I tend to get up around 11:30 and have a nap from 16:00 - 18:00 but being able to block out noise and light is awesome. When you're coming off the block for your weekend go to bed but only for a couple of hours, then get up and...

Definitely not over heating, it is corrupting on the BIOS. Think it's going to be a 1050ti unless there is anything at £200 I should check out.

£200 is really the absolute max budget there is. I'm not sure the card is over heating, it was donated to me as it wasn't stable for them intitally but would run F4 fine for me after the first ctd. I've was monitoring temps with the catalyst tool and it never seems to get super hot, I under...

My R9 280 3gb is dying a slow death, can't play anything now without ctd after 5 or 10 mins. It is stable for the time being just browsing the web and non demanding applications. I'll be using it to play Skyrim, Fallout 4/NV and newer games. I've got a i5 2500k running at 3.7Ghz, and 16Gb ddr3...
