Snapped one of these up two days ago as a B grade for £360. Was going to hold out for the Samsung to get a bit cheaper but figured the AOC was worth a punt at that price. For anyone thinking of getting one of these B grades here are some quick observations based on a day's use. Firstly the...

Cheers mate very helpful.

Can anyone who has the Xonar DG confirm if it has optical out via Toslink - the manufacturer's page says yes but the OcUK pic doesn't show one.

Rough and ready figures from Afterburner: 33C/23% idle, 61C/40% load - 99% GPU usage, although that was only one quick bench I suspect it would heat up a good deal more if I gave it longer, although even arfter hours non-stop gaming I still haven't heard the fans above the others in my case.

Played 4.5 hours solid the other night on mine and didn't hear the fans once.

Will be posting my Saphire HD5870 in Members' Market soon at well within your price range but then noticed you won't have access yet which is a pity. Good idea when you get a moment to enable your trust so other members can contact you directly.

The Sky+HD boxes still have the second coax connectors and yes, it will pass through the digital terrestrial signal. As already said, this setup is a quick and easy way of doing it, just about adequate for a small TV but the picture quality will be noticeably inferior on a larger screen.

3rd for the M4 256, just got one, excellent performance all round.

Think I read someone with a similar problem on the Crucial forums got it to work by disabling any third party storage controllers on the board whilst running the update.

Glad you got sorted, spec is almost exactly the same I got for £430 with the exception of the 1080p screen, pretty good for an extra £70. Believe me that cpu is more than capable, not worth shelling out the extra for i7 imo. The difficult bit now is waiting, seemed to take an age for mine to...

Wouldn't wait in hope tbh, I've never seen new stock appear at the weekends, weekdays only I'm afraid

"View current status of all 72,861 members" Odds ain't good.

Finally relented and got 1 and 2. All that driving never appealed before but I'll give them a go. Looking forward to the stories.

Shaping up to be best final day in years.

No personal experience of playing BC2 on the xps15 as such, but this should give you some idea of the NV 420M's overall performance: http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GT-420M.35837.0.html Looks like it's just about playable on medium.

Upgraded mine to 8gb a week ago and there's no difference tbh, kept an eye on task manager whilst I opened 10+ IE8 tabs, every Office 2010 app and a handful of utils and it's not even using 3gb. Still, with the current price of RAM so low seemed like a good time to add a little futureproofing...

Crikey, not sure I could look at that everyday! Luck of the draw with the outlet, I guess. Can send it back under DSR I suppose (no doubt as the original owner did when they took a look at what they'd ordered after one too many).

Weekend deals are often good until midday the following Monday but I wouldn't chance on leaving that late tbh.

Cheers for that. Did like the RAT I looked at the other week but being a current G7 owner I would only consider going wireless now. Not sure I can justify dumping the G7 tbh even though it's well-worn and the battery life has become useless in the last year or so - anyone confirm the 700 uses...
