    Alternative to YouTube for trailers?

    Yeah, I'm not interested in paying £12 a month to watch some trailers. It's clear that they've reduced the quality of their standard 1080p and I've no doubt that the enhanced bit rate will look better.

    Alternative to YouTube for trailers?

    Hi all, I've recently noticed that the 1080p resolution for Youtube free account has dramatically dropped in quality. Full of artifacts. No doubt this is to promote the paid higher bitrate version. Are there any other sites worth looking at?

    Spec me PC for Computer degree course for compiling games etc.

    Hello all, A friend of mine needs a PC for their computer degree. They'll be using it for compiling code and building games in Java. What spec would you recommend? I'm assuming the GPU wouldn't need to be too advanced, probably no more than 1080p. Are there any CPUs recommended for...

    Advice needed for 27" 2560x1440 Monitor

    I ordered a B Grade LG 27" 27GP850-B for £250. I've already got two of these for my PC so I know he'll be happy with it. And the B grade price fits the bill.

    Advice needed for 27" 2560x1440 Monitor

    Hello all, as the title suggests, I'm looking for a gaming monitor for my son. 27" 2560x1440, high refresh rate, IPS(?), budget of up to say £250, might be willing to chip in a bit more if it's worth the extra. He's currently running an Gigabyte nVidia 1660 Super with 6GB of RAM, but will...

    Spec me a budget PC for Fortnite etc

    I might have a few bits and pieces, but it's good to get an overall picture. My main issue is not knowing what current cpu and gpu is up to the job.

    Spec me a budget PC for Fortnite etc

    Hello All, My son is after a PC to play Fortnite, Rocket League, Titan Fall 2 etc. I'm looking for a budget spec for both a 1080P and a 1440 variant. Not looking for a price of a monitor yet, just want to get a feel for the PC price. I've been our of the loop for a few years. Cheers, Jed

    Lost my wallpaper folder but Windows still showing them. Where can I find them?

    Yeah, that's what I thought. The weird thing is that I always remap my Documents, Downloads, Photos, Desktop etc to the D drive so that they're safe when I reformat my C drive. Something must have gone wrong at some point. I'm kicking myself for not backing it up elsewhere. It definitely...

    I've found the DesktopBackground folder in my AppData folder. Unfortunately it just cached a handful of my images. Can anyone recommend an ideally free data recovery program? Might be worth a try...

    Lost my wallpaper folder but Windows still showing them. Where can I find them?

    I believe it might be. Or it must be if it's still showing those files. Would it be on OneDrive, or is it something else?

    No luck, there are a load of folders with just stock images in them, nothing of mine.
