    Please recommend a wireless router

    What is with this unhelpful response? Quite clearly I outlined that I didn't want to mess about with trying to secure a VMS 3 to find I've made things worse (from many of the comments about this hub). I had already missed their deadline to get a free upgrade so it would have involved me trying...

    Virgin Media Discussion Thread

    Sorry i missed your post. I moved onto the 100mb VM package recently but my linksys isn't even gigabit on the ports so not getting more than 30mb. I will be connecting my main pc and htpc via ethernet to router, but will also be using wireless for devices and stuff. £300 would be pushing it a...

    Cheers. Do you have any suggestions for a half decent wireless router - Asus or Linksys around £50 to £80 and preferably latest ac standard? I've heard Linksys isn't as good as it used to be but I'd still consider it. Not really sure about other brands or models.

    Virgin Media Discussion Thread

    What's the up-to-date consensus on the SuperHub 3? As you can probably see from my other thread on here, I'm deciding between purchasing a new wireless router and using this with my SuperHub 2, or trying to get a free upgrade to the superhub 3. The one concern I have is about the ability to set...

    Please recommend a wireless router

    I appreciate your reply and i'm not too technical with networking technology. The thing is I've heard about lots of issues people have had with the new VM SuperHub 3. I've only ever used my SH2 connected to an old Linksys and what I liked is the amount of options for configuring say port...

    Please recommend a wireless router

    Wi-fi drop outs on the super hub were really common, and not when I was using the linksys router. The config options with superhub were also extremly limited.

    Please recommend a wireless router

    I guess because i'm mainly using a wired ethernet connection (with wifi for a few devices), the Asus AC56U and AC68U might be overkill. What is the general consensus on Linksys? I definitely want to replace my existing one with something that has gigabit ports and latest ac wi-fi standard. Also...

    Please recommend a wireless router

    Hi, I am on Virgin Media 100mb broadband and i've been using the Super hub modem plugged into a Linksys WRT54GL Wireless G router. I think this is quite old technology now and caps my speed of upto 30mb/s. I don't think it has gigabit ports. The linksys wireless router has been very solid...

    Please recommend backlit keyboard < £50

    Cheers i'll check that I've ruled out CM anyway as just read it has an annoying thing sharing F keys and multimedia keys, defaulting to multimedia on every boot up. Maybe i should mention my budget is slightly extendable, if there is a good reason, and i guess i could live with a red backlight...

    Please recommend backlit keyboard < £50

    Hi, I'm looking for a decent keyboard for less than £50, which has a backlight for the keys, either white or blue and quite bright. Doesn't matter if it is a bundle with mouse, or keyboard on its own. I saw the Cooler Master CM Storm Devastator bundle which I am considering, but i'm...

    970's having performance issues using 4GB Vram - Nvidia investigating

    I really know little about gfx cards compared to most of you but i'm still unsure what to do. I'll most likely be gaming at 1080p but maybe higher at some point. With this NVIDIA memory debacle, am I likely to encounter stutter and performances problems running at 1080p ultra settings for most...

    970's having performance issues using 4GB Vram - Nvidia investigating

    I don't see how blaming the consumer here is helpful to the situation. I like others am unsure what the hell to do and its nothing about being opportunistic. I have no idea what else i'd buy or swap to at this point and also need the reference style cooler and dimensions. Then there is...

    970's having performance issues using 4GB Vram - Nvidia investigating

    This whole thing is dissapointing to say the least. New to PC gaming and this is the first gaming card I've purchased - OCUK GTX 970 reference cooler edition. Not really sure what to do now. I have tried to catch up on this thread - maybe the topic starter could edit their first post to...

    **GTAV OFFICIAL SYSTEM SPEC RELEASED BY ROCKSTAR**

    I thought this would be delayed again but don't mind the wait if the game is going to perform well on release. Need to catch up on other games first. I suspect they are going to include a fairly comprehensive video editor on the pc version which must need a fair bit of dev time and testing. I'm...

    GTX 970 PSU 6 pin question

    Hi. I have recently installed a gtx 970 into my case on pci-e x16 bus (top slot nearest to cpu). I assume this is correct and on the fastest pci slot. However there are two psu 6 pin slots on the card and two on my psu (Corsair HX650) I found I had 2 sets of psu 6 pin cables with my psu...

    Corsair PSU's Really That Bad ?

    that's reassuring if true. Is this enough power to run my system overclocked, as its first time i'm putting a decent gfx card in. Maybe i need to buy one with higher wattage. gigabyte z87 oc motherboard, i5 4650, 16gb ram, soundcard, dvd rom, and fan controller
