@Showboat Yeah that's the sort of thing I dread - Played some Halo again today and got a couple of hours of smooth sailing until it started crashing again My HTPC has my 2 upgrades old GTX 970 in it which I'll probably throw in and content myself with turn based strategies and retro gaming for...

I transplanted the card back to my main PC, and it was all fine last night for a couple of hours. Tried again today and it booted with 640x480 resolution, restarted and it crashed within a few minutes, so an RMA will be raised with a link to this thread Card was bought at the beginning of...

@SkeeterUK The back of the card is pretty much entirely shrouded, only a couple of cutouts which I've inspected closely and can see no obvious signs of damage. It does look like it's an RMA, but dread sending off a card in case the fault isn't reproduced, so I'm trying to be as thorough as I...

@SkeeterUK I did try reseating the card, and installing the latest AMD chipset drivers - forgot to note that in my actions so far 3dMark either fails to start or crashes almost immediately, Halo will run but usually crashes within a few minutes - even seen it happen at a pause screen...

Are you using any other software at all, to monitor the graphics card, or other system stuff? Using the overlays in Adrenaline, not seeing anything alarming temperature or power draw wise Are you using separate power cables for the 6 and 8 pins? Yep Have you tried massively downclocking the...

Bought a 6700XT as my 1080ti bit the dust giving the classic blue sparklies. Was pretty happy with the purchase, but started getting AMD driver crashes more and more frequently, and now it's giving hard lockups with the screen going completely black. Following a reboot after a hard crash the...

Yarde is the Trump of boxing - 'I didn't lose that fight'

You mean guess the house judge?

2 rounds the Yarde corner has failed to put his gumshield in, absolute disgrace

There's cagey, and there's this. Looks a good fight on paper, but the ref might have to intervene at some point

It's an exhibition so a KO shouldn't even be on the cards... Going by the officiating in the last fight, though, it could easily happen

Ref should have stopped that before the KO, Nate was out on his feet. The Doctors looked clueless, but the ref has a duty of care to stop a fighter before it gets to that

Been following stock and delivery dates on a number of sites and I suspect you're right, I'm seeing delivery dates of New Years Eve currently. I have a working PC, so I'm happy to wait, I'm certainly not throwing money the way of scalpers or sites with inflated prices. As has been said...

That's probably the unanswered question, seen lots of reviews with 3200/3600 RAM speeds, but is there performance left on the table?

Most embargo lift reviews focus on the flagship processor, frustrating, but understandable as it's ultimately the halo product that drives the most views. Just going to have to be patient at the moment, the reviews focused on the lower tier products will be along across the next few days

Imagine posting something incredibly vague without adding anything to the conversation... I've been on quite a mental journey with the Zen3 release. Started out adamant I'd get the 8 core SKU, then when pricing released I was going to get the 5900x as it was 'only' £100 more. Right now I'm...

What layout are you planning for these monitors, all landscape in a row, a mix of portrait/landscape, one on top of the others? I've looked at the cost of single and dual arms and they work out roughly the same per monitor, if you're able I'd honestly buy one for each monitor and have the...

Absolutely not, built a 3400G based SFF HTPC to replace an HP Pavillion mini that just wasn't up to the job. That has since migrated to be my 2nd PC, and a 1600AF 1080p gaming system has taken its place. So no, not nervous at all and neither should you be.

I've used an online store and I got the service for free when I bought CPU, motherboard and memory - otherwise it's £9.99. Alternatively if you have a local indy computer store they may do it for you for a fee

Absolutely that, flashback will be needed. Either that or a vendor that will flash the board before sending it out to you, providing a BIOS is available for your chosen board, of course.
