    Anyone just given up on looking for a new GPU?

    For those who don't know how it works (and this was me yesterday). Download the app Telegram to your mobile phone and set it up to send notifications (it will ask you so just say yes) then search for FE PartAlert telegram online and click on the link on the page this will set it up. Finally as...

    Anyone just given up on looking for a new GPU?

    I was surprised how "easy" it was - I decided I'd try the telegram thing yesterday so created an account on Scan and set up telegram. This is literally the first alert since I downloaded the program - now to explain to the wife the sudden Credit card charge :) BTW second alert just came up if...

    Help for long time existing customer but new to forums

    Long term user - can't see the new section - been meaning to mention my post count is way down for some reason (doubt I ever had enough for MM) but I used to post a lot but I think my ordering and forum accounts got messed up several years ago. Just checked and I have a receipt from OCUK from...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Straight in to character select on all the realms which aren't pvp that I've looked at so far. Be interesting to try (later in the week when people have got over the excitement). Shame the old crew from Aggramar have all moved on so we can't relive the (overly rose tinted) past. Can't get that...

    Sony WF-1000XM3

    Update after 2 days use during commuting etc. Pros - sound quality is still good - had another play with the seal / tip sizes and the bass has improved considerably. It's still "woollier" than I'd like but much improved. Cons - they are quite poor when walking - you get a bass thud when...

    Sony WF-1000XM3

    Hi all, Just wanted to add my six pence worth - just picked up a pair of these to replace my wired Bose QC20 earphones (stolen on the Paris Metro last week). Overall sound quality is not bad - mid and treble are pretty good. You have to really screw them in to get any bass though as the seal...

    The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

    Not on either side here but just a quick note on the comparative noise issue - the scale in decibel measurement isn't linear - the 3 points difference between the 2070S at the top of the graph and the highlighted 5700XT means the 5700XT is twice as loud not slightly louder or similar. This...

    Windows 10

    One of my PC's is locked into Pre Anniversary Windows 10 because any version after this causes it to blue screen on first boot. Given up trying to trouble shoot / fix this as I've lost count of the number of times I've had to restore the boot drive from back up. Used the instructions several...

    *** Official Elder Scrolls MMO Thread ***

    Hi Dan, Not tried the guild finder - not sure what I'm looking for TBH - mainly people to group with possibly raid in the future I guess. Trying to keep my play as casual as possible :)

    *** Official Elder Scrolls MMO Thread ***

    Hi all, Bought this game a couple of weeks ago to try it out (not played since the closed beta). Quite and enjoying it but getting tired of soloing everything - any recommendations for guilds etc. to join? I'm no longer remotely hard core but I play most nights plus weekend afternoons. Mostly...

    Windows 10

    Thanks Dirk, I'll double check that tonight when I get in - fingers crossed not seen the updating screen since I restored my PC and put that script on. I'm definitely going to have to get a new PC but hopefully this will leave this one stable as a back up device when things go **** up on my...

    Windows 10

    Just set up that script above - fingers crossed I wont have to go through this crap again. Will have to replace the PC I guess - just didn't want to get involved in this round as it all seems very poor value for money.

    Windows 10

    Windows 10 attempted to update itself yesterday and completely hosed my PC - taken 2 hours to get a working back up reinstalled - just searching through this thread for the way to stop it auto updating (my PC won't run any of the newer versions of Win 10 (anything after and including the...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    As I was an ex GM from another MMORG I beta tested most major releases back then - I never paid for access and never would.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Can’t believe anyone would pay to play a beta of WoW classic. I alpha / beta tested it the first time and there’s no way i’d have paid then, never mind this time round. But then again Beta tests nowadays are marketing tools and nothing to do with actual testing or QC.

    Which way to go on GPU?

    Hi all, I think I've decided which way to go with the rest of my new PC but no idea what to do about the GPU. I was holding back to see what the new GTX200x series would do but the prices for them are probably too rich for what is now mostly an hobby machine. I intend to get the following...

    Upgrade or replace old system?

    LOL if I was going to spend £600 on a component I’d grab a 1080 Think I’m gonna build something using the 1070 in a plain case like the R5. All my pcs are under a large desk so no point having a windowed case. Guess I’m going to have to think about AMD this time round judging by the build...
