    Model D Preorder - ETA?

    Seems they're selling it at there store now even for U.K. customers and it's cheaper it seems (unless shipping bumps the price significantly?) They said somewhere third-party sellers will be an extra 4 weeks or so but do you have a proper date yet? I'm in no big rush for it since it's been so...

    Glorious Model O mouse

    How long after did they release the O-. A few months? Have they said for a fact they'd release one? I imagine they will. It was a bit silly of me to order one without waiting actually. But at least I'll know it the size is good or not.

    Glorious Model O mouse

    Obviously this applies all the mice: O/O-/D: Why choose the Matte Model O Cost: $49.99 Color: black or white ~1g less in weight. Softer glow. Gets dirty less (easier to leave fingerprints on glossy). Should give you a better grip if you have sweaty hands (glossy may be too slippery for you)...

    Model O with new cable?

    Yeah, cheers. I only ordered one so I have a backup I can fit without having to wait a few days for a replacement.

    Model O with new cable?

    Damn, I didn't even know they did this. Mine is fine but after hearing all the people with issues I bought a paracable elsewhere as a backup for the minus.

    Cannot Find a Stable i5 760 OC

    I just assumed when overclocking you'd need to mess with voltages but all I did was change the Multiplier and BLCK. I thought more work would be needed. When you say stable what are you referring to? In game FPS? I'm a ****ing noob-o-tron.

    Cannot Find a Stable i5 760 OC

    Oddly delayed reply! I'm running at 4.01GHz ATM and seems stable. I left all the voltages on auto. Is that OK? The Intel benchmark: Stock 2.80GHz= 349 O.C. 4.01Ghz = 466 Am I missing something?

    Cannot Find a Stable i5 760 OC

    PC completely freezes...I hear a continuous sort of buzz in the headphones and the power button does Nothing, not even holding it down for 10 seconds. I have to flip the PSU switch. I can run games fine. It has NEVER actually frozen during a game, but in Windows doing typical stuff. Once a day...

    Clock Rate Fluctuating In Goldsrc (HL1 Engine) Game(s) - FPS Drops

    This guy is talking poop, right? http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=454&threadid=171117 I was scanning the forums before I opened that thread...he's been saying that to others with the same issues.

    Clock Rate Fluctuating In Goldsrc (HL1 Engine) Game(s) - FPS Drops

    Thanks for the response, drunkenmaster but I tried disabling 'ULPS' and 'Force constant voltage' before posting but it made no difference. I read about that. I used AB to O.C my 470, so already had it installed. I had to update to beta to get the AMD options. I run games in full-screen...

    Clock Rate Fluctuating In Goldsrc (HL1 Engine) Game(s) - FPS Drops

    Yes, to remove the nvidia drivers I first used Revo Uninstaller, then DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) which found leftovers and finally Display Fusion that also found stuff. Done the same with the AMD drivers...no change.

    Clock Rate Fluctuating In Goldsrc (HL1 Engine) Game(s) - FPS Drops

    Thanks for the response. I have V-Sync OFF in TFC anyway because of aim. I tried it on/off within the game settings, no change. It's a pitty because the card is now half useless to me as I still play TFC a fair amount.

    Clock Rate Fluctuating In Goldsrc (HL1 Engine) Game(s) - FPS Drops

    Bad FPS drops in TFC... Upgraded to a MSI R9 280X GAMING 3 GB from a N470GTX-M2D12 I removed the nVidia drivers with DDU and installed the latest Catalyst Version (13.12). I haven't tried many games yet but I can run Bioshock Inf and Metal Gear Rising MAXED well. What's the deal here...

    £200 GFX Upgrade ~ i3 530 @ 4.20 / 8GB DDR3-1600 ~ Will A 760 Be Overkill?

    Got a 2nd hand i5 760 on the way. What are you thoughts on the MSI Radeon R9 280X? I was reading it had high VRM temps.

    £200 GFX Upgrade ~ i3 530 @ 4.20 / 8GB DDR3-1600 ~ Will A 760 Be Overkill?

    Thanks for the responses. I could probably throw in a new CPU at some point. Some are going fairly cheap 2nd hand. These are my options: http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=3503 What's the min you'd suggest?

    £200 GFX Upgrade ~ i3 530 @ 4.20 / 8GB DDR3-1600 ~ Will A 760 Be Overkill?

    I currently have a (self OC) MSI N470GTX Twin Forzr II which is showing its age, so I am after a little boost. As you can see my specs are a little dated, so I don't want waste unnecessary money on performance that will bottlenecked by other components, say if I buy for example a 760 2 GB...

    £200 MAX "Gaming" PC Build Challenge - [Excluding GFX Card]

    Some people have very little money. I agree, I'd spend at least £750 on a PC. He isn't going to be playing Metro or Crysis 3. The PCs on ebay are ****e atm. All brand named stuff and I don't trust peoples nooby custom builds. But yeh, I'll find him either a 2nd PC or salvage parts from ebay...
