Hey, Been out of the upgrade paths for a while. From what I can see, the i9-12900k bests the 5950x in most benches but at the cost of heat and efficiency, is that the general consensus? Looking to upgrade soon from my i7-6700K. Usage is dev work, design, and gaming. So a real mix bag. Any...

Looking to potentially purchase this and was looking for some real-life usage reviews? Attractions: Resolution 5120x1440 120Hz VESA Mount I primarily work on my machine, however I do game as well. I'd like something the same height as my existing 27" monitor, but obviously wider and this seems...

Hey all, I've currently got 2x980Ti in SLI, most of the time SLI is disabled because of all sorts of issues. I'm starting to struggle to hit top performance on some of the latest games, even at 1080P and I'm looking to upgrade to a single card solution without spending a fortune. Does anyone...

Hey everyone, I've had 2x980Ti's for a while now and for a long time they've worked great. However, over the past 6 months I've had to disable SLI mode because leaving it on results in a game freeze just seconds in to a game (occassionally minutes). Using the Heaven Benchmark with SLI enabled...

Hello everyone, I am currently running this system: i7 6700k 2x 980Ti Reference Cards Everything at the moment is being cooled by 3 separate AIO coolers and this is not only inefficient but can be quite loud. I'd like to move to a custom loop but beyond AIO's I'm fairly clueless. Everyone...

Hey there, Just wondering if there are any Rust players out there? We've just started our own server for some friends and long-play. It's fairly vanilla with only a few exceptions (HUD improvement, PvP death notifications) - but nothing game changing. Happy for others to join us sometime...

Do you think we'd be able to get a competitive gaming sub-forum inside general gaming? There was definitely interest in some of the previous CS:GO threads and I'm sure there are LoL/DOTA fans too that would benefit from being able to discuss coverage of minors and majors. Just a suggestion :)

Morning all, I'm looking to purchase a new headset. I am currently using a Ttesports Shock headset that's pretty old but was free. I've narrowed down my decision to three sets of headphones, but cannot decide as some of the reviews are mixed and I have no experience with either brand. Quick...

Hi there, I know there are a ton of threads out there about updates and Windows 10, however I don't know if my issue strictly falls into any of the current answers. I am presently on a slow 2.5meg connection for the foreseeable and I have set updates to 'deferred' and such so that they...

Hi all, I've recently built a new machine and wanted to get one of the NVIDIA SLI GTX bridges to add some finishing touches, however none of the spacing options seem to fit the way my cards are positioned. I'm using the specifications provided by the motherboard manufacturer, which I thought...

Finally finished a new build but am experiencing a weird issue. When I power on it shuts off almost immediately and 3 seconds later comes on again by itself and boots fine. I've changed and removed all the hardware down to the motherboard, cooler and power supply. I changed the power...

Hey, I have two MSI 980Ti's in SLI on my machine. Specs at the bottom of this post. Using the nvidia game settings it suggested optimal DSR for games like CS:GO at like 4k and downscale to 1080p, but when I use those settings I barely get 60fps and it's incredibly inconsistent. I was...

Hello, I'm currently running 2x MSI 660Ti's in SLI and for the most part they run great. Unfortunately, with the 2GB of vram limited they're starting to show their age in some newer games (GTA5 and such). I was wondering if a 970 would be worth it? Specifically this one. Here are my...

Hey, I've just scored a free Tannoy SFX subwoofer and I can't for the life of me get rid of the slight hum that it puts off. I've looked at all the ground loop options etc, but this puts out the hum with JUST the power plugged in. Someone suggested changing the fuse in the plug to match...

Hi, I'm not very well versed in the latest and greatest cards so I'm looking for some advice from those that do. I currently have an MSI 660Ti video card and am looking to get a little more power so I can push the games that I do play up to the max without having FPS slowdowns and such. The...

Hey, It's live! Any planned purchases for anyone here? Also, sales here will be the same sales at Christmas/Winter sale. Nevermind - didn't see the other thread

Hey, I was wondering if any of you would be kind enough to somehow grant me access to download the Mavericks DP8? I'm trying to finish a one-off application and need to test a few things and would really appreciate it if someone could help me out. Would be willing to trade a brand new...

Hey, My laptop running the Windows 8 RTM was booting into desktop in just under 7 seconds and then, last night I was prompted for Windows Update so I installed them, as requested. Now, boot time is over 30 seconds - there is a 10 second delay between the boot screen dissapearing and the login...

Hey, I not-so-recently switched back to the iPhone 4S from my Samsung Omnia 7 WP7. After a few months I wanted to retrieve some pictures of my son from my Omnia 7 but have since forgotten the passcode to unlock the phone. I can wipe and restart the phone but would obviously lose the pictures...

Hey, We just got a warning from our hosting provider stating that we're going to get shut down for breaking their AUP/TOS for having unlawful software that's brute forcing other IPs and they gave us a snippet log.. Any ideas what this even means or what I should look for?

I just received this....

Hey guys, It's time I upgraded my poor 8800GTX. I have a Core i7 machine with 8GB of memory and am looking for a good card to play BC2 and some other upcoming games at 1920x1080. If price wasn't an object, which of these would be the best...

So, today I pulled the trigger on 2 new iPads, a 32GB Black WiFi+3G for myself and a 16GB White WiFi for the wife. I understand there are currently no jailbreaking methods but that they are close? In the meantime, any recommendations for games, business apps? Are there better mail alternatives?

Hey, So we're launching another site soon and I'm just playing with the concepts. Boss wanted an old school retro feel to fit in with the logo. It's in very early stages right now, so many things are final.

Hey, I've got a nice, reasonably powerful machine setup for a new HTPC. I've looked at various front ends, each have their own good points and bad. I'll sum up below: - All content is stored remotely on a network server. - File types range from .AVI & .MKV (480p -> 1080p) I've given XBMC a...

Hey, I listened to a pair of the studio headphones in a store the other day and found them to sound outstanding. I was considering a pair. I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with them?

Hey guys, I've been out of the hardware scene and am looking for some opinions! I currently have an 8800GTX. It's aging. I want to upgrade to something that will give me great performance in Bad Company 2 and any other new titles that are coming. 1920x1200. There is a great deal on a 1GB XFX...

Anyone else following the news on this? Various reports have stated it has been confirmed - ready to ship. Apparently allows the backing up of games onto internal or USB external hard drives and loading them directly. http://psx-scene.com/forums/cmps_index.php Sites are getting hammered right...

Hey, I've just been given the ask of settup up a local AD domain on our small office server. Everything is setup and running; users can log on, etc etc. However, all of our existing users that are setup on their Vista/7 workstations have a plethora of Firefox extensions, little tidbits in...
