Hi guys, So I've fancied having a go at a self build for a little while now, and seeing posts about other people doing it hasn't been helping. However, I have a perfectly good laptop and when it is fixed a desktop. So, I was trying to work out what sort of uses I would have for it, pretty...

Hi guys, My external hard drive seems to be playing up at the moment so can anybody recommend a good replacement with usb 3? Or are they all pretty similar in performance? Also, trying to transfer a couple of movies I bought on itunes onto it and it is saying file is too large for...

Hi guys, was playing on my desktop earlier, had a powercut and now when I turn it on I don't get any signal on the monitor. There is definitely power going to it because I can hear the cpu cooler and the fan controller is lit up. I have tried: A different monitor Hdmi instead of dvi Taking out...

Hey, I'd like to play bad company 2 again as I prefer it to bf3. However last time I tried it on the xbox all of the servers were either empty or full of noobs trying to get that stupid destruction kills achievement. Does anybody still play it on pc? Don't want to buy the game if they don't...

Hi guys, finally got round to playing bf3, but I find as soon as I load it up my headset starts to buzz. I was playing with the settings and none of the sound options in game made any difference, changing the graphics options changed the pitch of the buzzing but didn't stop it. Unplugging the...

Ordered an ultranote with the specs in my signature on the 12th March, Glen from DPD dropped it off today about 9.15 They say the best things come in small packages, this one was fairly large... http://s1245.photobucket.com/user/bigben93/media/IMG_1874.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0 I had also ordered a...

What does 1080p mean? I know the definition is 1080 horizontal lines or something to that effect, but how does that actually work? For example, how can my 15.6" laptop, my 24" monitor, my 32" TV and my brothers 42" TV all have the same resolution and look as clear as each other? I know it's a...

Hi guys, I'm thinking about upgrading my monitor for my gaming desktop (specs in sig) and was looking at the BENQ XL2411T 23.6" 1MS 3D MONITOR. Does anybody know if this is good or can you recommend something better? Budget of about £250, obviously cheaper is nice. I think 24" is probably as...

Hi guys, looking for a new laptop as my current one is slow and I'm going away soon. It won't really need to be able to run anything too demanding, mostly itunes, google chrome, football manager and skype.. I like the look of the following spec, and was wondering if anybody could see any ways...

Hi guys, I have a fairly new gaming pc (spec in sig), for some reason it seems to crash when playing games like fallout 3 and new vegas - not all the time, but often enough to bug me. I have all of the up to date drivers for all of my components, and latest patches for the games. Does anybody...

Hi guys, Basically I am looking for a basic laptop for general low usage - eg. internet and very infrequent games of football manager. Nothing more demanding as I have a decent gaming desktop. I put 3 specs together, all with pretty much the same internals for pretty much the same price, was...

Hi there, Does anybody know the sizes of the mini PC please? Also does anybody know if that would be ok or would the SSD be wasted on these PC's, I have one on my home PC and it is brilliant. I don't need a huge amount of storage as all of the data is on a server. Case PCS Hush! Silent...

My new PC. It's a little bit huge... Chuffed to bits, pictures don't do it justice (probably because they were taken on a phone camera.) http://s1245.photobucket.com/albums/gg598/bigben93/ Like I said, pictures are a bit lame but oh well... Just got to wait for the replacement for my...

Hi guys, I'm after some fairly cheap PC's for work. All they will be used for will be sage 50 and a bit of internet browsing. Everything is saved on to a server so we don't need lots of memory, I chose SSD's for fast startup. Do you reckon this looks ok? Case STYLISH PIANO BLACK ENIGMA...

Which of the SSD lines on the PCS website is best? The Hyper X has the biggest numbers, which I would assume makes it the best, however it is cheaper than the others? Also, other people on the forums seem to recommend the intel lines. Thanks

Hi guys, last question (hopefully). I currently use a TV which can accept both HDMI and DVI as a monitor. I plan to get a 24" IIYAMA E2473HDS which I will use as my main monitor so I can watch TV on the other screen. I tried HDMI with my Xbox but whenever I switched channels it reset the Xbox...

Hi there, I recently placed an order with a spire thermax eclipse II a fan controller, this is now in pre-production. Unfortunately the fan controllers are out of stock and not due in until early June, therefore my computer would not be with me for at least a couple more weeks. The reason I...

Hi guys, I'm after a machine which will be able to run games such as Skyrim nicely - I currently play on an xbox, so anything that runs better than that will be great. I want to be able to use this with two monitors. Do you think this looks any good? Case PCS MAELSTROM T900 BLACK GAMING CASE...
