Update. I reset cmos, entered bios and changed boot priority to CMS (drive was on intel build b4). Some kind of windows repair going on. Found out my son pulled the plug out the back to turn it off. The system seems to be running windows repair. Thoughts?

A while back i build a new rig with the b550 and a 5600x, rtx 3080 and 16gb RAM. I bought the mobo memory and cpu as a bundle, with bios pre installed so the cpu worked. All worked well, then suddenly today it wont boot. Everything powers up, nothing on the monitor, no signal other different...

Im currently downloading the free to play trial. One of the best games i ever played (for me!) Was indepedence war 2 esge of chaos. Not played space sims since tho so hoping this scratches the itch

I played from 04 to 07 whilst at uni, i had heaps of time. What an amazing experience coming across the AH for the first time, or an enemy player in the first mixed zone you go into. I remember seeing the first enemy player that was a high level and running! Awesome experience and i had the time...

ACC in VR. Honestly sim racing has spoilt pc gaming for me. If i do boot something else up and quickly bored and want to get back on track Used to love FPS and strategy games like homeworld and total war. Mount and blade also. Just dont have the time for those now

I went for the same card (3080) but only after deciding to get a 5600x over the 5800x, soni could up my gpu budget and fet the 3080. Obviously if money is no object get the 5800x

Im happy to see ACC as the worst here. Ive been loving that game on my monitor and was using a gtx 970 and an intel i5 4590! I just upgraded to a 3080 and 5600x. Cannot believe how poorly ACC runs, i can get it looking amazing close up, but cars and textures in the distance almost shimmer!! I...

Does anyone have this setup, or if not at least the Rift S and play ACC in VR Whats your step by step process to get into the game and your settings.

So, i might have to bring my upgrade plans forward ACC ultrawide 34inch 1440p resolution. All high settings Practise with no other cars = 140fps Full grid race = 65fps I didnt realise the impact a cpu could have

Looking at my intended mobo msi b55p gaming edge wifi. It looks like it goes to 3200mhz and if i want higher i.e. the 3600 that would be in a xmp oc mode (taken from their site) Does that mean plugging the memory in you propose will default to 3200, is the process simple to get it running higher?

Is there best practise or certain things to avoid when changing gpu. Ive always had the same GPU (970) so never had tonworry about this. I.e. do i remove everything related to nvidia off the pc then start again or can i simply plug it in and gonget the current 3080 drivers

Ye i know what you mean, **** housery is **** housery whatever the circumstance

You should be. Id have my phone handy between 9 and 10 and 2 and 3 weekdays. You have to be quick i.e. hearing/feeling the alert, open up.immediately and add to basket. Dont think that youll be able to get anything outside of that timeline Saying that, the drop thursday when i got my 3080 , the...

Scalpers, just had an interesting debate with my mate. I just got lucky and managed to get a 3080 FE and he was saying i was daft to not immediately sell it and make £800 easy. We then talked about whether there was ever a scenario where scalping was ok. My point was i dont NEED the £800...

In case this wasnt clear to anyone (still...really) . In order to get one of those FE scan drops, you need to pull your phone out your pocket as soon as it buzzes for the telegram alert, click the link, get tonadd to basket..all within 60 seconds. If you do that your going to be unlucky, but...

How come
