    Help needed with new monitor setup

    Hi All, I just got a new Dell LCD monitor (U2713H). Its native resolution is 2560x1440 but when I set this in Windows, the text looks all blocky and barely readable. I'm using Windows 8 and just installed the latest beta of Catalyst Control Centre for my AMD 7700. I also installed the...

    Capital Gains Tax

    Hi, Can anyone let me know what kind of percentages the Capital Gains Tax deducts from any profit? Example: I buy £10,000 shares which increase to £20,000 I then want to sell to get £10,000 profit. How much % tax would be given to Gordon on the above 10k profit? BTW - on higher...

    Advice on Intel 1366 Mobo's

    I'm thinking of purchasing an entry level Intel i7 CPU and have been told I'll need to use a 1366 (x58) motherboard. There seems to be a wide range in price from £160 up to £380. I wont really be looking to do any major overclocking or watercooling with it and don't plan on plugging in...

    Purchasing the XBOX 360 with HDMI?

    Thanks guys ... been looking at the different versions around. I'd just use the system for playing games, maybe a bit of Xbox live games but not to download music, films or photos to.. Would the Arcade version be sufficient for my needs? does it have enough space to fit the saved games of...

    Purchasing the XBOX 360 with HDMI?

    I'm probably going to get a 360 and would like the HDMI output. I thought all the new 360's would have HDMI but I can only find the Elite with it at £300 thats pretty expensive as I wouldnt expect to be downloading films etc so wouldnt need the hard drive. So are they going to fit the...

    I Hate my best friend

    The evidence mounts up suggesting this guy is a liar - all fat blokes/women lie because they know no-one in their right mind would want to have sex with them. I think it raises their self esteem Remember Chunk from the Goonies?

    Bu-ray edging ahead

    I found a website with all the charts... http://www.thedvdwars.com/ If you click "Show All" on the top chart, it does illustrate the increased Blu-Ray sales which seem to have taken place recently. Blu-Ray has marginally overtaken HD-DVD after being behind for a long time.

    DVD player with HDMI

    I have that upscaling DVD player, and a 32" samsung connected up by HDMI and have to say I find the picture to be a big improvement over what i had before. Im not sat all that far back and the quality looks good (around 3 1/2 metres). Whats more, its good to have the samsung because it all...

    Bu-ray edging ahead

    As another poster said, who in their right mind is going to want to pay £25 for a film (apart from perhaps one or two films to 'demo' HD). The price stinks and I'm glad both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray encryption has been cracked already. What will really set things off is the rental market. When do...

    Does the UK need immigrants to fill unskilled jobs?

    To tackle this, the root of the problem should be targeted - the Labour Government. Blair and Brown- past their sell by date. Get them out and then we may start to see some changes.
