Haha no, I was tempted to ask someone who did that to see how it compares! Flats above a club, where I work, so I asked the GM if power bill dropped after flat renovated.. Anyhow, I think its a dodgy meter, or faulty boiler/towel rack

Yeah, the heating is electric and all off at the wall, never been used by me. The flat was fully renovated ~ 2 years ago, prior to that it was derelict I'm pretty sure, so electrics should mostly be new.

Well, original bill was like £200 a month but gave updated readings and was reduced to £125 a month. This is for one person living alone, I don't use heating at all, I very rarely cook or even heat up food as I work nights and am pretty bad for ordering food :(. Also don't even have a kettle or...

Thanks, any idea how much they can handle? I guess if its stable through one socket it should be fine but mildly wary! Also yeah, pretty sure they get removed :) That's neat, however want to include the monitors + other usage too, have 3 monitors and a hifi for the sound etc. I'm mostly sure...

Hi all, Wasn't sure if there was a better place to put this, sorry if there is! Recently got stung by some massive electricity bills and wanted to set up monitoring for the power used by my PC setup. If anyone has recommendations how to go about this that'd be grand. I'm assuming best bet...

I'm guessing thats the case, will be removing all key caps and giving it a clean to make sure it's not something silly like a bit of dirt but the key does seem fine, just doesn't register some times.

I have a corsair k95 RGB I bought in march 2016, it's had one hell of a lot of usage and the D key has started to go. The last keyboard I had last way longer and was about 1/4 of the price so I'm suprised this has a fault already, especially with it being mechanical and last one not. Should I...

Hi all, I set up an external HDD for my sister some years ago for a backup drive, apparently she's only got around to using it and after writing data to it once it stopped showing up on her mac. I've got it showing up in disk management, I've noticed there's no name and no letter assigned...

Ah okay, so thats DVID option, any idea how to see default vcore? Don't know if I'm being a real dumbo here but I can't work it out where to find that info lol

Started freezing when I tried that, dropped LLC by one setting and it was freezing up, ended up raising voltage enough to get it stable, however the thermals are about the same hah. I guess its less stress on the mobo, so I'll leave it at that. Is there a way I can get it to put less voltage...

Wasn't too fussed about the backside after I got all the fan/controller cables wired to the sides, just needed it done enough to make it easy to work with. Front side had a bit more effort into it

Put the sides back on now I have all the drives sorted and hooked up, and put the extra cpu fan in, I wasnt sure if it would fit before. 27mins on aida, will test fan on the other side tomorrow and see if that makes a difference, and try dropping vcore

Well that gives me some comfort! :D

Yeah, not too fussed myself really, will be a long time before those speeds are needed Don't suppose I could get your 2 cents on this "Is it normal that mouse and system start freezing when GPU is stressed in stress test? (never stress tested a gpu before) When I'm running realbench or aida...

m2? Edit, went to test writing to m2 got this weirdness when trying to move over a large .mkv My phones stopwatch makes it around 800mb/s write

cheers for the link, will look through that now Nah haven't done that, I was thinking GPU might be faulty and just wanted to do 1 bit of the rig at a time and test it all at the end. Is it normal that mouse and system start freezing when GPU is stressed in stress test? (never stress tested a...

I'm hoping to get this 5ghz clock down to 80 max on aida by lowering the voltage, would be good enough as a baseline, then perhaps using turbo boost for a small boost when less cotes are being stressed, the issue with that seems to be what intel defines as an active core

ooh that would be so handy! I gave up with low LLC. now working with HT on, 5.1ghz was too warm with enough volts to keep it stable, so dropped to 5 and this is where I'm at. will continue dropping voltage and benching tomorrow

Don't suppose you could read through my post in overclocking subforum? I'm a bit lost as to what is going on with my vcore when LLC isnt on max https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/rookie-ocing-everything-8700k-1080ti.18797618/

Thing is, with other apps not getting past 85c, prime is straight to 100c which is where I instantly stop the test, really dont want the first chip I fry to be from my most expensive build haha.
