    Acer Predator X34P developing fault - What to do?!

    My 4 year extended warranty ran out 4 months ago so of course the screen has just started developing a fault. First: HDMI input started displaying full white screen and now no longer works Second: DP input will sometimes suddenly go blank and flash up the "no input" popup. Pulling and reseating...

    Looking for a petrol estate for £5-10k

    Having scanned the market and seeing just how messed up it is I think we're kinda forced into it. There really isn't much about! The Audi is fine for now I guess...

    Looking for a petrol estate for £5-10k

    I recently scrapped my 2005 V70 D5 which was a great car (except for being diesel) and had to quickly buy a stop gap 2007 Audi A4 2.0 TDI estate. I'm not impressed by the Audi in comparison, its much smaller and amazingly more boring to drive than the lumbering V70 was. We do very few miles but...

    Side monitor for 34" Ultrawide

    I currently run an Acer X34P centrally on the desk, with a Dell U2412 alongside in portrait mode. I would like to replace the Dell with something higher Res, either 1440p or maybe even 4k? It is used to display things like Slack, Spotify, terminals etc while the main screen is the X34. What kind...

    Weirdly the problem is far reduced when playing Batman Arkham Asylum, but still happens from time to time.

    X34P Problems With AMD Card

    I just tested with Elite Dangerous and get the same result for all refresh rates, so at least it isn't the game at fault!

    X34P Problems With AMD Card

    I recently bought an Asus x34P, I intend to later get an Nvidia card to take advantage of GSync, but for the meantime I'm using an RX480 4GB card. It seems to work just fine on the desktop at 100Hz and 120Hz, but when I start PUBG the screen constantly blanks out and re-establishes the picture...

    Google Pixel or Sony XA2?

    I need to get my wife a phone to replace a faulty Nexus 5X. I myself have a Pixel XL and think its great, particularly the camera performance. I'm tempted to get her a Pixel for that reason, but I'm aware it's getting on now. I can find a Pixel for £277, but this seems to compare with a new...

    New CPU/Mobo/RAM

    Confirmed motherboard is dead, so I'm either spending like £100 on a second hand Z77 or buying a new rig. Hmmm.

    New CPU/Mobo/RAM

    Looks like my ageing Z77/3560k/DDR3 rig has finally died, I can't get it to post anymore. I quickly priced up a couple of options to replace this, one Ryzen 1600x and the other Coffee Lake 8600k The price is surprisingly close so what do the masses think? Let's say budget of £500 and minimum...

    GA-Z77-D3H and Samsung Green RAM - Unable to change settings

    I'm trying to overclock this RAM and it seems the settings are completely ignored no mater what I do, and remain at SPD timings. Am I missing something? The options selected are saved correctly and survive a reboot, but the actual speed & timings never change.

    Upgrade to RX480 4GB or 8GB?

    Just Went for the XFX RX 480 RS Edition 4096MB Can't really see any appreciable difference between the RS and GTR? Willing to risk the lack of additional VRAM for a £50 saving, by the time I need it I'll be upgrading again I reckon. Considering my current card has 1GB I think I'll be ok :P

    Upgrade to RX480 4GB or 8GB?

    That's the thing, if a £190 4GB card gives 95% of the performance of that £250 one, that's a bad value upgrade.
