Hi There, The past week or so i've had a strange clicking sound coming from the PSU, however this only happens at full load (in a game with lots going on) and even then not all of the time. I can be in the game running around doing stuff and it won't do the sound at all, just sounds as...

Cheers for the reply, i ended up going with the Asus PB298Q in the end, had better warranty and overall better contrast/reviews than the LG apart from the freesync, for only £10 more. :)

Hi Guys, I've been looking to upgrade from my 23" to a 1440p 27" IPS, i've had my eye on the AOC Q2770PQU for a while waiting for the price to lower (it was about £285 black friday weekend, £330 current) However on this week only deals there is the LG 29UM67 IPS with 1 year less warranty and...

Hah cheers guys, friend suggested molex>8pin and i didn't even think to look for pci-pcie2 while searching d'oh. All that was in the box was a DVI>VGA adaptor unfort, ordered and sorted :)

So it turns out it does have enough power...however it only has 1x6pin PCI-E and 1x8pin 12v...and the 390 needs 2x8pin. Will it be safe to use a molex>8pin converter or is it new PSU time?

Not able to get in it at the moment but i did find this picture at least, exact same PSU as i have; Will it be enough?

TDP on the 5820k is 140w whereas 4690k is 88w, does this means i still have headroom to overclock the 390/4690k more? Currently no OC on the 4690 as 7850 is struggling as it is in current gen games at higher settings. Surpising as reviews/other topics on here says 600w-700w min for the 390...

Hi guys, hoping someone can help. This morning i ended up buying the R9 Nitro 390 for £205, however having had time later tonight to research more i realised my current PSU may not be able to handle it - so i am thinking of returning it and getting the Strix 970 (£20 cashback, +1yr warranty)...

Thanks for the replies, i had it booked in tomorrow for the aux belt but i was a bit dubious it was the problem given it wasnt doing it consistently (and that it only started when they fixed the water pump again..), so didn't want them to put a new one in and it not be the actual issue. I've...

Hi All, I haven't had much luck with this elsewhere so hopefully somebody here may be able to help. Short version: Water pump died in april, new one fitted, turned out its been slowly weeping the past few months - had another water pump fitted last week under warranty, on picking it up the...

Motherboard is a 'Gigabyte Z97X-UD3H-BK', have just had another look and found this also similiar to what Justintime mentioned; http://www.hdsentinel.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=1947 I actually don't get any errors at all as far as I'm aware, its used as the OS drive so errors i assume come...

Cheers, i did try to read through some of the SMART result but it has a few the software cannot identify in HD Tune, even the Sandisk SSD software thinkts its okay. It only arrived Friday and was quite worried to see it having errors. It had a few when i was copying over GTA and the rest since...

Aye i mentioned it above :) I was using a cable from my previous motherboard and replaced it with a new one with a metal clip and it still throws the same error.

Hi There, I recently bought and installed a Sandisk X110 128GB and have been using Hard Disk Sentinel to keep an eye on the rest of my drives when i noticed it has started coughing up errors. Edit: also included HD Tune + Crystal Disk Info screens I've only had it installed...

After speaking to a friend it seems my question was pretty pointless as i didn't notice RAM isn't important like it was for overclocking my old e8500 where you needed better fsb and timings etc...d'oh, long while indeed! Thanks anyway :)

Hi There, I currently have 2 sticks of 'TeamGroup Elite 4GB DDR3 PC3-10666C9 1333MHz' from when i first went DDR3 and wasn't overclocking. However having recently bought a 4690k and a better motherboard I'm just wondering if i would need to purchase better/faster RAM in order to overclock...

Thanks for the advice, went with the below, should be a nice upgrade from what i have now! Seemed silly to pass on the gigabyte offer especially. :) YOUR BASKET 1 x Intel Core i5-4690K 3.50GHz (Devil's Canyon) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail £179.99 1 x Gigabyte Z97X-UD3H-BK Intel Z97...

Okay, having toyed with the idea of upgrading my RAM as well it seems GTA doesn't really need 16GB that much and after looking at a few benchmarks the i5 vs i7 performance difference isn't that huge either on it. Would the below be a better option perhaps? More importantly is a 550w still good...
