    After my poorly worded, multi edited OP. I read through the forum and bought the DELL 27" G-Sync monitor. Wow!

    I want to buy a new monitor.

    I'm ready to but a new monitor. I currently use a AOC G2460PG, I bought it as a stop gap as it was in budget and would give me G-Sync to go with the 980Ti I bought. I now have enough to upgrade the monitor to 1440. To get the best out of the 980Ti as it can easily handle it? I'm not convinced...

    New Monitor - 27" 1440

    You may not have this issue, dependant on the second monitors refresh rate. Check your cards is down clocking when on the desktop. I found and did some research, when running the main monitor 144hz with g-sync on. Along with a second monitor the card does not down clock on idle. Set the...

    Outhouse conversion

    If budget is an issue, first thing I would do is just paint the walls. Also paint the floor with a good floor paint. You can board it out later. Painting the walls will add a lot more light and give it a less industrial look for now. It will be a sound echo chamber, so a nice rug and some sound...

    Are we not far away from discovering alien life

    I'll read the article later thanks for the info. Interested in the other extinction evens. I have a passing interest in Space the universe etc and how it all works. Never really read up and got to the finer details. Possible life and the work to find it in the universe and quantum physics really...

    Are we not far away from discovering alien life

    What would life be like, we are only here due to the dinosaurs being killed off by a meteor strike. If early evolution of the human race had to compete with these creatures would we be here now? So given the 1 in x chance of the human race actually evolving to where we are now. Applying that to...

    Dual monitor set up - Different refresh rates

    yep, I'm 144hz main and 60hz second monitor. Although you may want to drop it 120hz as the nvidia drivers will not down clock your card when only using desktop programs. Only drops to 9xxMHz on the desktop, only at 120hz the clock drops to 135MHz. Saves a lot of power and heat. Idles at 58...

    Having a baby this weekend, spec me some time killers

    Have to agree with this and thanks for confirming, I made the right choice on all four occasions. Longest was the second, 13 hours, and that was a while ago and only had TV. If i was to do it now. with what I own, it would be the 4G iPad and watch movies. Don't look!

    8Pack super fast smash the rest i5 Skylake Overclocked, Discounted killer GAMING bundle.

    Awesome. I once offered to buy you a pint after reading what you did for a customer. Very impressed with your support for bundles you've put your name to. Hope anything you make from my purchase is used to buy yourself a protein shake on me. Great bundle, great support!

    8Pack super fast smash the rest i5 Skylake Overclocked, Discounted killer GAMING bundle.

    So far so good, easy to apply and running smooth. Only went for Air Cooled so not pushing the full 4.4ghz. My son is really happy, even if its because he can now run Division on high. Where as Squad and ArmA 3 look like a new game on my 980ti. One day he will grow up.

    8Pack super fast smash the rest i5 Skylake Overclocked, Discounted killer GAMING bundle.

    I drove down to the shop on Saturday and bought this bundle for my son. He was overdue an upgrade as he's been running my 6 year old i5 750 rig for a few years. While I was there I bought a 980ti for myself. My sons new rig with this bundle was easy to build and matched with my hand me down...

    Just not my day!

    Although local restrictions exist, there is currently no national ban on pavement parking across England and Wales. One was included in the Road Traffic Act 1974, but it was never enacted and was eventually repealed in 1991. Stop biting, its late. Just tell them to read the thread. :D When...

    Just not my day!

    It is a bus stop so councils can put them where they like, whether they can be enforced as no parking is implied for lay-bys, best way I can describe is, sole use for buses only. Bus stops that are on the carriageway need supporting signs and kerb marking to stop people parking in them. The old...

    Just not my day!

    Indeed I agree, although it does narrow down the potential bus's that could have done it. Hence giving my insurance a vehicle to name when contacting the bus company when requesting the CCTV. That will prove every thing. They may not have to provide it though. I'm still fully expecting them to do...
