    Windows 8 to 10?

    what I was wondering is if I were to install this mobo, use my 8.1 key that I currently have - could I still upgrade to win 10 rather than buying a win 10 key (costing me £100 or so)

    Windows 8 to 10?

    Oh I see. I managed to find my 8.1 key last night, so surely I don’t need to use that?

    Windows 8 to 10?

    This just confused the shiz outta me. What do you mean by RW everything?. I’ve only ever installed fresh copies of windows and done the 8.1 to 10 upgrade when they first released it. I only have a win 8 key, so I have no option but to do what you said not to do, don’t I?

    Windows 8 to 10?

    Hi all, I’m looking at changing my motherboard, cpu and ram. As I understand it, I need to reinstall windows now when I change the motherboard as the windows license is linked to the motherboard somehow?. I still have my windows 8.1 key, but I’m just curious if I can still do a free upgrade...

    Help a case newbie out please :-)

    Hi all, I'm looking at a new case to go with the components i'm buying this weekend (along with re-using my GPU). I really want to add an all in one water cooler, but I have no idea how these fit into the case. Currently I have a full sized tower, and was hoping for some recommendations for a...

    Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz

    Hmm, if the new Ryzen gen is a few weeks away I may sit tight and wait to see what kind of prices they’re coming out at. I’ve always had intel chips in all of my past pc’s, so AMD is abit of a grey area for me.

    Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz

    Thanks Kelt. I dont currently need a new psu, as i'm running an 800w as it stands. If I were to want to do a build around a Ryzen 7 2700x, what motherboard and ram would you recommend? (16GB). Sorry if I seem lazy, i'm not - its just i'm so out of touch with cpu building

    Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz

    Hey all, You could probably write what I know about CPU's on the back of your hand. Just wondering, what do I need to take into consideration for a new CPU, as mine always seem to be failing for new games on can you run it / recommended spec. Do different CPU's fit different motherboards?. I...

    Potential upgrade question

    Hi, I currently have the below spec computer, which I built myself a fair few years ago. I'm wanting to get back into pc gaming, as I lost the way and went into consoles more than anything. Just wondering which components may need an urgent upgrade, to play games such as total war three...
