    Which USB sound card for "virtual surround" with headphones?

    Unless you need hardware to drive your headphones, check out Hesuvi. It's software that lets you select from all kinds of surround sound profiles, including cmss, sbx, gsx etc. https://sourceforge.net/projects/hesuvi/

    Best 24" 1080 Fps monitor sub £250

    Might as well get the VG259QM for another £12 and 280hz, although currently out of stock as well. £90 more than the 24G2U is quite significant though and maybe not worth it for OP

    Budget Build

    Out of interest, what makes them awful? I know they're not great hence the low price but would it not be fine for such a low end pc?

    Advice from the ppl who know

    If you wait 2 months, another 2 months later and something else will be coming out. Just get what you can afford now. Games aren't going to suddenly be more demanding in 2 months time so a 1080 will easily run what ever you throw at it...unless you are planning on a 4K monitor?

    Sennheiser gsx 1000 thread?

    Surely from these videos we are just hearing what our own soundcards surround is producing? As the GSX is aimed at competitive gamers, it would be beneficial to see something like you trying to track the movement of a player you can't see as this is what gives you an edge over other players...

    Alternative to Quadro K620

    I'm building a computer for work based on the same spec another graphic designer uses here. His specs are: i7-6700 16gb ram Nvidia Quadro K620 Looking at this graphics card, the output options are pretty terrible and I'd like 2 hdmi outputs or 2 display ports. I'm also sure there would be a...

    Best high end cpu air cooler?

    Just out of interest, is there a reason why one wouldn't get an AIO watercooler for a similar price? Surely the temps will be lower than air?

    Newbie Memory Question

    I would advise against using the overclock profiles and set everything manually. When you're setting a 40% oc you're changing the base clock which causes the memory clocks to be far higher than stock. A 40% increase on 2133mhz means you're trying to set your ram at 2986mhz which just isn't...

    Enabling XMP is reverting my CPU clock back to stock...seeking some help

    All your settings are correct If you look under Memory tab in cpu-z, it shows FSB : DRAM 2:8 (1:4) This is your bus speed x 4 so 191 x 4 = 764 To get your ram up to 800 you would need to set your CPU clock ratio to 20 and BCLK frequency to 200 This will clock your cpu at 4Ghz and your...

    Enabling XMP is reverting my CPU clock back to stock...seeking some help

    What cpu have you got? In the bios change your cpu settings from auto to manual and set everything to their stock levels and enable XMP for your RAM
