Do you mean to reinstall windows? Ideally I’d like to do that but I want to avoid it as he’s been using the PC and he wants to just continue where he left off

Hi guys, I installed a NVME SSD in my PC and installed windows on it for my dad to use until I got his PC built. Now that his PC is built, I’ve swapped the SSD into his PC and it’s not recognised as a bootable device. I’ve since found out that leaving my SSD installed when I installed windows...

Thanks for your reaponse spoffle! I don't think my sister is a heavy user of Photoshop, her laptop has a GT740M and my computer even with HD4600 was faster in all areas she was concerned with. What worries me I've read that 4k monitors can use over 1GB of VRAM in just normal use so I was...

I'm building a new rig for my sister to edit photos and do general work with. She loves my 4k monitor and I've selected the Dell P2415Q for her. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-079-DE&groupid=17&catid=1895 She tested Photoshop on my computer with 4k on just the HD4600...

Cheers for your input guys. I managed to do it through Audio Devices > Playback > Speakers > Properties > Levels and then reduce all of them from 100% to 20%. I swear I exhausted all possibilities from under Properties a while back but this was the first thing I went to today... Go figure. 20%...

I use the onboard Realtek ALC1150 from my ASRock Z97 Extreme6

Hello, I use my earphones on my windows 8.1 computer and anything above 20% volume is deafening! Sometimes even 2% volume is far too loud... Is there a way to reduce to volume output so that 100% volume would be about what I experience now with only 20%? ie reduce the volume by a factor of 5...

Do you have an R9 290? I have no issues now other than an occasional small line flash across my screen, kind of like a artefact while overclocking GPU but mines stock clocks (for now). Cheers, Fenza.

Just for future reference my monitor is mostly fine now with Windows 8.1 and and my R9 290 never black screens any more. I never did figure out the issue. Cheers, Fenza.

Cheers setter, I have a 4.9 at 1.365 saved which I use for work. I managed to get this with hyperthreading off as my work is solely singlethreaded applications, and apparently they work better with hyperthreading off. Would this be acceptable for 24/7 use? Not sure if it makes a difference but I...

I like the idea of that Gamepad, reaching 25 keys on a keyboard isn't the most elegant of solutions. This Gamepad only has 14 but if the 15th on the thumb was to be used as another modifier then the 14 could effectively be 28 keys while being a lot more comfortable as well as precise. I think...

Hey, ZXSpectrum I do really like the 3D Connexions and certainly see the appeal after trying a colleagues, but they don't solve my ultimate problem. I feel that to be the most efficient I need to rely as little as possible on mouse movement and the way I think this is most achievable is to...

I'm sure the 3Dconnexion things are great for most people, but I do really like to keep my left hand on my keyboard. I've had a go with a colleagues 3Dconnexion thing and certainly see the appeal but it's just not for me. I'd like to have a huge number of keybinds. I'm used to using ~50 key...

Hey gradyhawks, cheers for you comment. The Kone+ doesn't have as many buttons as I'd like but looking at their website they have one called the Tyon which may be worth a look at. It has 9 button in total with two of them being switch like (up and down clicks), so there's a total of 11 buttons...

Hey SPG, the X Button Mouse Control looks really interesting, I'll have to try that. I've always hated scroll wheel button and in CAD I'm forever double clicking it! so the option to change that would be fantastic :D The ability to change it only in certain applications is perfect so I'll...

Cheers setter, what would you consider reasonable voltage? I'm very happy with 4.8 then if the norm would be considered 4.7 I'm running at 1.30v Cheers. Fenza

I've come across the Mad Catz M.M.O TE which looks ideal but also 'chunky' and I can't imagine the buttons being delicate / easy to click. Here's some pics Cheers. Fenza

Hey Mercutio, cheers for your imput. The G700 looks pretty good, 5 buttons for the index finger and those 4 for thumb look quite close together so may be able to press two at the same time effectively making 6 buttons. Yet another disappointment of the M95 was it's inability to stack multiple...

What's the average OC of the 4790k? Mines running 4.8GHz on H100i

My 4790k is overclocked to 4.8GHz with the H100i, Broadwell will have some big boots to fill.
