For general web development guidance there is a tonne of stuff here: https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/ For building a wordpress theme, I loved Chris Coyiers screencast - it's a little old now but I believe it's still enough to get you going...

AIO sounds like best option, will go for the h100i with some higher quality fans (probably noctua).

The reason I went for the H55 is because I would love a quiet machine (as quiet as possible). But if temps are kept down and therefore the fans are kept kept lower then H100i sounds fair, can anyone coemt to noise levels (I'm not over the top about noise but just a nod of "its not actually that...

Hi All, Im looking to pass on my old machine to the parents and put together a smaller box used primarily for coding, video / photo bits and bob. I tend to stick towards components that will last for years without any maintanence. OS I have sorted and I believe the Corsair 250D will take...

Thanks RJC - I knew there would be something stupid. I missed the socket name difference

Hi everyone, I'm looking to put together a new PC, my current one is head off to another family member. I use my computer for programming on linux and largely opt for good parts to give the machine a good length of life and not have moments of getting sluggish. At the moment I'm looking...

Hey everyone, When I first did my build a few years ago I went for the Lian Li PC-A71FB but it's ultimately just too big for what I need and I'd like to switch to something smaller. My main concern with a new case is whether it'll be able to fit the Noctua NH-D14 without any hassle. I...

Hi Everyone, I've been wanting to make some of my machines easier to access from other machines on the local network. Ideally I'd like something along the lines of: http://media.home/ http://workstation.home/ .... And each of these simply redirect to static IP addresses and port...

Hey everyone, I current have 2 Samsung 940BW 19" monitors. I've had them for about 5 - 6 years. They have served me well, but I've been spoilt at work and been given a huge Dell monitor (I don't know the size of it), which is making me realise that coding is much nicer with the extra space...

Biffa - Looks like I completely mis-read the guide. I also thought about it, and it talks about lining up holes from both backplates, so yeah I'm just having a simple moment.

Its the i5 760 2.80 GHz Lynnfield

Lol, I've wanted a Lian Li case for ages and since my old was so terrible (photos coming tomorrow I figured I pay the money and see if it lasts

Hey everyone, First off - checkout what got delivered today: Tomorrow I'll be putting the build together, I started looking at the motherboard and heatsink, one thing that concerns me is the Noctua installation guide says LGA1156 board have a stock back plate which will need to be...

Yeah but I'll know they're there :-P

Yup :-P All ordered, now the fun part - wait till everything arrives. Thanks everyone for helping me out, I both hate and love doing things like this, love the choosing, hate the final click of all the money going out. I'll be sure to stick up a build log when I get started, then my old...

I've always wanted a Lian Li and I want a huge case so it will last me for years regardless of what I do with it (my current case is a sunbeam sumarai case - god awful looking thing :-P) plus: the case is a graduation present from the parents, the rest Im buying

To be honest the cost of that ram is just right for me, so long as it works and I can play my games at a pretty good rate :-)

Just a quick google flags up some concern with XMS3 ram, its not on the list of supported RAM for the gigabyte M/B, main concern is its PC3-12800C9 not just plain old PC3-12800 (neither of which mean anything to me, so I can't say if there is even a difference) If you guys say it'll fit and...

It was largely the look of them, I know they are meant to be good, but sharkoons are meant to be pretty good too.

Looks like those are the winners, Ill go for the XMS3 purely because I have a feeling the dominator RAM will have issues of fitting. Anyone know if the fans on the noctua cpu cooler can be swapped for the sharkoons, without damaging it??
