    *** Official Nintendo Wii U thread ***

    I salvaged my Wii U from my 2.5 year old last night after she went to bed (she likes to pick her own things to watch on netflix with the pad, mostly Mother Goose Club *shudders*) cleaned off the awful finger marks and started to enjoy Zelda WW again. I had forgotten how good the console is, need...

    Any recommendations on a heatsink that will allow me to fit that RAM? :confused: Around the £40 mark. Or more suitable RAM around the £70 mark..

    Cheers, I've tweaked a little: Dropped PSU, GPU (not interested in SLI), SSD. Replaced with recommended, also replaced mobo, added headset (which I had forgotten). That CPU bundle tipped me over too far to the wrong side of £1300! For your consideration: YOUR BASKET 1 x MSI Radeon R9 290...

    Good board for i5 Haswell?

    I'm looking for a good board to go with the Haswell i5 I have a budget of around £150, I am looking to OC this to 4ghz, so need a board to cope with it. I don't really have a preference for manufacturer Thanks in advance! ;)

    Budget gaming spec

    I've gone the AMD route, just cause it gets me that little closer to budget. Should be ok for modern FPS I would have thought.

    Budget gaming spec

    FPS primarily I would have thought. I would prob drop the SSD in favour of a more powerful CPU. I don't think speed of games/loading of OS is a big concern. The i5 Haswell looks good.

    I know it's the wrong section to ask such a question, but what kind of overclocking potential does it have? I wouldn't know where to begin really! Edit: There are a few tutorial videos out there, i'll thoroughly research and I will like a little boost out of 3.4. Thanks again :)
