Hi, I've just called a local PC shop and they have a BenQ G2410HD in stock for a good price, so I'm considering getting it. However, I am aware it has no HDMI port, and one of the reasons for upgrading my monitor is to be able to plug a PS3 in the back of it. BenQ claim it is HDCP compatible...

Cheers Cheers guys, especially reflux, that was exactly the sort of thing I was looking for. Something to give me a bit of general context in which to read website reviews etc. Thanks very much. Following up the netbook comments, I've seen these cropping up at university more and more, got any...

Bump? Err... bump?

Hello all. After a couple of years at university spending very little time reading about / buying PC components, I am coming to the end of my degree. The prospect of having income from a job (hurrah!) is spurning me to revive my interest in upgrading my PC, and, let's face it, playing brand...

Bah! Oh well, fair's fair. Fluff_eei

Does anyone know if, as a Pay Monthly Orange customer if I set up a my friend's number as my magic number, and then my friend moves that number over from Orange to 02 using a PAC code, whether it'll still be free? My guess says no but I was wondering if anyone's already tried it. Fluff_eei

Seller decided he wouldn't sell it seperate to the motherboard, blast. Not paying £235 for a processor and motherboard when I don't need the board and it'll only sell for about £70. That's £165 for the processor, no thanks. Fluff_eei

Hi guys, I currently have an AMD64 3000+ running overclocked from 1.8Ghz to 2.5Ghz. I have come upon the opportunity to buy an Opteron CCB1E0606 (a very good stepping) for around £130. I am only looking at this instead of conroe because to go to conroe I would need a new mobo and ram and...

That's stunning. Looks like it was done at the factory, and very in keeping with the case. Awesome. Fluff_eei

Stunning. I really hope OcUK stock it, because I now want that isntead of the PC7+. Fluff_eei

Your carpet's horrible :D Fluff_eei

Wow, thanks for the hugely detailed responses. Couple of things. Firstly, my router has an integrated modem, sorry if that was confusing. Secondly, looking at competitors (OcUK don't sell switches) switches look quite a bit more expensive [edit: not hugely more expensive] than hubs...

Hello everyone, I've not really used the networking forum much during my time as a member here, so first of all, hi. Basically, I am thoroughly fed up of my wireless network. I have the fortune (via a well paid dad) to live in a big old victorian house which has accumulated a couple of...

When do you recon the new generation of Lian Li cases will start becoming more available in the UK? Fluff_eei

Bloomin sweet! Hope it's not as mahoosive as it looks, so I can gets me one. Fluff_eei

Ha! Not mine, my parents', but yeah, it sucks for wireless. A homeplug twin set is looking to be around £70, competitor so can't say where, but that's the same as 2 wireless access points so could be worse, and I hope *touch wood" they are more reliable. Will go get some soon, and infact may...

Not terribly helpful. I live in an old victorian house with very thick walls and a couple of extensions, and so for the wireless signal to get from the study to my room it has to go diagonally (therefor travel further) through 2 walls and half a chimney at best. I'd have to add two repeaters...

Hi guys, I was thinking, really I'm making the problem worse by creating another thread on the topic, but my hope is this will act as a first port of call on the subject. After much trawling through the site in anticipation of upgrading to Conroe, with a new motherboard and ram, I stumbled...

http://tomshardware.co.uk/2006/07/31/graphics_beginners_2_uk/ The first part is on the site somewhere, but was very basic. This is a little more detailed, although not hugely so, helped clarify some definitions and taught me a bit. Enjoy. Fluff_eei

The ASRock board is you answer, but be aware that there'll be a peformance dip even if you do switch to PCI-E and DDR2 later on, compared to other boards. Fluff_eei
