    It's a terrible time to want to get into Flight Sim '20 (Joysticks)

    Virpil and VKB are worth keeping an eye on. Both produce high-grade pieces of kit, some of it modular, some of it not, but it's a rabbit-hole most flight simmers go down at some point. If you're patient, the VKB Gladiator NXT will be in stock again shortly (around the 18th Jan), and they will...

    New Dell IPS S2721DGF 165hz gaming monitor

    I had been refunded my money after the unit arrived at my door - I have no idea why.

    New Dell IPS S2721DGF 165hz gaming monitor

    Dell must have some fairly troubling internal logistics; I placed an order on the 14th, it was in production by the 23rd and delivered from the EU to my door by the 28th. I am sorry to hear that some of you are having immense troubles in securing the monitor.

    New Dell IPS S2721DGF 165hz gaming monitor

    Having received the monitor on Wednesday, is there any particular reason as to why Dell would charge me and then refund the money back in to my account?

    New Dell IPS S2721DGF 165hz gaming monitor

    Another update on this. Three days ago I emailed customer support to confirm the delay, and if I could expect to wait until December as some of you folk have speculated. They responded yesterday to say that the expected delivery time was still the 20th of November. Now I've just had a look at...

    New Dell IPS S2721DGF 165hz gaming monitor

    Throwing my two pennies in; I ordered on the 14th October, had it confirmed on the 17th and now I see that it is 'about to enter production' with an estimated shipping date of the 20th November. I am looking forward to the screen arriving and I am content to wait for it, I still use a little 20"...

    The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

    @humbug Understood. It's been so long since I've had a card that is capable beyond the performance of the rest of my system, I was fairly ignorant of the relationship between CPU and GPU until very recently. I'm still running a Zen+ 2600 (stock) and 16GB of DDR4 2999MHz (XMP#2), which I don't...

    The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

    @humbug Sorry, I took a few days away for work and also spent some time playing a couple of games that I know run well. I had been playing Post Scriptum quite a bit with friends, at 1680x1050(!), GPU clocks seemed to hit peak of around 2020MHz. Unfortunately, I don't think PS is terribly well...

    The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

    Forgive my apparent ignorance in this, as I am not entirely sure where you mean. If I open up the fine tuning controls for the GPU tuning, I can see the following (Frequency / Voltage) 800/750 1450/800 2100/1190.

    The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

    Thanks for the response Ross. I ran Superposition several times on the 1080p High settings; the card reached a maximum of 2024MHz 221W draw at 99% load according to GPU-Z, so I suppose it is actually functioning correctly. I also set a much more aggressive fan curve despite, what I thought to...

    The Radeon RX 5700 XT Owners Thread.

    Morning folks. I am a new owner of the Red Devil 5700XT but I seem to be struggling with it. I very rarely see the card hit anything near the default clock speed, let alone the advertised boost speed. It is running stock on a fresh installation of Windows 10 with the following hardware; MSI...

    Best ATX MB (no more than £100) for ryzen 2600?

    I was told yesterday through a webnote that they expect the MSI boards to be in stock by the end of the month (this week). Hohum...

    Best ATX MB (no more than £100) for ryzen 2600?

    Nope. I was told at the beginning of the week that it would be "soon" and "maybe" this week but that doesn't look likely at all. Oh well, what's another week eh? :(

    Goes for any MSI board really. I have been waiting on an order for almost four weeks now! :(

    OCUK's new website

    Not a fan at all. It's a pain to navigate around and generally has the same visual impact as a cheap (torrid!) domain squatter web page. Good job lads though, must have been worth the effort or something.

    AMD R9 290 (Non-X, Pro, etc) Owners Club

    Alright, done! What does this alter on the readout and what should I specifically be looking for to indicate 'proper' working order of the card? I'll have to get back to you after work regarding this now. Cheers!
