    Would a 7900 xt be wasted on a Ryzen 5 5600 build?

    Thanks for the tip, it wasn't that much more and I have upgraded to the 5700x. Cheers!

    Would a 7900 xt be wasted on a Ryzen 5 5600 build?

    Excellent, thanks for that. Nothing crazy on the resolution, 27" monitor at 1440p so should be perfect. Have taken the plunge. Cheers!

    Would a 7900 xt be wasted on a Ryzen 5 5600 build?

    Hi guys, I am long overdue an upgrade. I had my eye on the Ryzen chip as the price is attractive, but I have also ordered a Sapphire 7900 XT. Am I going to be crippling myself from day one if I run this card with the Ryzen 5600, 32GB of DDR4 and the MSI B550? The rest of the PC will remain as...

    New loop in Corsair Air 540

    Ah perfect, thanks - if that's the case, then I think I can fit a pump / res combo on the floor of the case towards the rear, I'll have to measure it but I think it's preferable to have all the kit in the same chamber.

    New loop in Corsair Air 540

    Hi guys I'm currently designing a new loop for my system, it's been a while since I ran a custom loop (danger den blocks in a Lian Li PC70!). I'm running an i7 8700k (delidded from OCUK rated to 5ghz OC) with a 1080 Ti. Both with Phanteks blocks. At the front of the case I plan on running a...

    Faulty Mobo / RAM - Upgrade time for i5 Sandybridge!

    Have had a browse - Posted my initial thoughts below. Will this GFX card be a massive improvement on my 480? Also, if the MOBO turns out to be the problem, I should be able to run the XM3 4GB matched pair with this new 8GB matched pair?? Hopefully with the 12GB RAM, SSD & GFX card I...

    Faulty Mobo / RAM - Upgrade time for i5 Sandybridge!

    Hi Guys, Been a couple of years since I upgraded my rig, and have been having all sorts of trouble with my RAM. Ultimately, had to resort to running one stick in single channel as the dual channel wouldn't boot. I think it may have finally given up the ghost, I've tried to deduce if it's...

    Worth upgrading 480GTX for £150-£200?

    Hi guys, I'm currently running my gaming PC with 4GB of DDR3 RAM and the Sandybridge i5 2500k 3.3ghz. With regards to the graphics card, I have the Asus GeForce GTX 480 1536MB GDDR5. I'm planning on getting another 4GB of RAM to top this up to 8GB, but... Is it worth upgrading the...

    Absolutely shocking time to patch, when a lot of people with commitments over Christmas finally get to sit down and play, boom... Poorly planned & handled all round.

    Is there anyway to change your spec? I.e. if you go as healing corruption spec as a Sorcerer, could you 'unlearn your talents' a la WoW, if you wanted to go Assassin? Or is it far to woven into the gameplay, and you're stuck with any choices you make?

    After the 11 gigs (of which I have 300mb left), does the game become 'playable' and continue to download the extra content whilst in game? Like WOW?

    Surely they will implement a mechanic that, when you disconnect via connection error, than you can just re-enter? Assuming you log back on with a 10-15 minute window? If not: Toilet.

    The client is massive, and I'm getting lousy download speeds as well... Been downloading since 11pm last night!

    *****Official Star Wars: The Old Republic Thread*****

    Looking forward to playing this. I bought the early access edition y/day from origin. Still waiting for the client to download! It's a beast. I'm thinking Sith Warrior or Inquisitor. Repub looks decent though, using the wait time to check out the different options. :p

    Looking to add additional monitors to my 24"

    Have been looking around, checked out the TVCalculator website mentioned in another thread on here. Turns out theres about an inch or less height difference between a 16:10 24" and a 16:10 17" in portrait. Does anyone have this setup? How noticable is this likely to be? Thanks.

    Looking to add additional monitors to my 24"

    Hi guys. As per title, I currently have the Dell U2410 monitor. I'm really eager to get two more monitor's to arrange either side. But ideally I'd like them to match, so I'll be sticking to Dell, and not have too much discrepancy in height. Ideally I'd like to have two smaller widescreen...
