I play dota mainly, the kids muck around with a few games too and general browsing. Im using all the same components just swapping for a new motherboard if possible. Thanks.

Hi folks. In an unfortunate turn of events I have ended up with some liquid on my motherboard which has since stopped my pc from working. The machine fires up but I get a a 'no display' signal on my monitor. I tried moving my HDMI from my GPU to my mobo and I recieved the same message, thus im...

Well a clean install of Dota hasn't achieved anything. I'm really puzzled by the benchmark test showing me everything is performing as it should be.

Ok ive changed the ram over however the lag is persisting. Ive re-ran the benchmark with the following results; Intel Core i5-4690K 53,147 User benchmarks - Average bench 80% SOCKET 1150, 1 CPU, 4 cores, 4 threads Base clock 3.5 GHz, turbo 3.9 GHz (avg) Performing above expectations (66th...

Should I move one stick over one slot and re-try? I haven't changed the slots since a friend first built the PC so im confused as to why it would start lagging all of a sudden, strange!

I just had a look through the bios and I couldnt see anything which would suggest dual channel wasnt enabled. Although my knowledge of the bios and how to navigate it is fairly basic. My ram is installed in the 2 slots closest to the CPU cooler, they were marked in the bios as the following...

Hi, thanks for your quick response. I can confirm that the bios had XMP disabled, which I went ahead and enabled on profile 1, however having launched dota again this doesn't seem to have resolved the issue. Here are the results having enabled XMP 2 of 4 slots used 8GB DIMM DDR3 clocked @...

Hi guys. My spec is as follows, Intel Core i5-4690K AMD R9 380 Samsung 850 Evo 250GB Kingston HyperX DDR3 2400 C11 2x4GB I've been running dota 2 seamlessly for over 2 years, now ive booted my pc and launched the game and i'm getting pretty bad intermittent lag during play. I initially thought...

Laptop I was looking at sold out, ignore this!

Hi fellas. I was playing on my pc when I got what I thought was CPU lag. After looking inside my case the pump on my cooler seemed to be working overtime but the water was static in the pipes. I restarted my pc and the bios said something a long the lines of CPU temperature problems. I presumed...

Hi Guys, Thanks for the fast replies (as always!) - I have managed to change the SSID and all seems to be running fine internet access wise. Strangely there is no request for a password when connecting via the Belkin Router? Using as a wireless repeater to extend the range of wifi in the building.

Hi guys, So I'm trying, and failing, to set up an old Belkin N+ router as a wireless access point on my BT Home Hub. So far it's gone like this: BT Home Hub IP is 192.168.1.254 Set Home HUB DCHP range to 192.168.1.64 - 192.168.1.252 Reset Belkin Router to factory Connect to Belkin over wifi...

Yes that is the patch panel it connects to which corresponds to the faceplate upstairs on which the bthh is running. The DSL port is connected to the faceplate. Thanks for this. So assuming the above set up then there will be no interference between the corporate network and the newly...

Why would it be unenviable? I don't want to cause any issues whatsoever with the existing network. If i use the set up outlined above by Chief Wiggum then would this ensure that the networks are kept completely separate?

Brilliant, that clears up a real point of confusion for me as i couldn't reconcile those 2 cables with our router location up stairs. So we've simply got our phone line box & BT open reach cable which essentially transfers the line up stairs via the patch panel. Upstairs I have the router...

Thanks for this! So is the purple adsl cable anything to do with our set up? Everything was originally set up by the BT engineer and it does confuse me that we have our phone line into those back to back boxes and then the adsl splitter coming off on one side as well as the BT open reach cable...

The server and ethernet ports are for the running of the internal system and do not carry the wifi signal unlesss i can set it up that way. So not sure if this would work? I hoped this was possible! Yes we have free ports in the router room upstairs and free ports downstairs where we want to...

The DSL connection plugs into the network port on the wall, this network port corresponds with the port on the server downstairs which the yellow ethernet cable is plugged into. The LAN connection you can see is for the powerline adapter which we are currently using and finding to be...

I have permission from my line manager. We have unoffical sky TV as standard on all stations and this is a natural progression to have the internet- bear in mind we upto have 6 people constantly on duty for whom this is a second home.

Hi guys - I need some help, i have limited networking knowledge (read zero network knowledge) but I have been tasked with setting up an unofficial wifi network on my station to be used by the guys and gals for personal use during down time. Now the problem is that it's a large building, the...
