    Thoughts on a £500 budget - great camera, battery that lasts a day, and dual sim. Thinking of a refurbished S21 Ultra.

    Ended up buying a Pixel 7 Pro used from back market for £470 where they've guaranteed screen to be in pristine condition. I would have grabbed the S23 but having had a P30 pro in the past with an optical zoom of 5x/periscope minimum (x3 doesn't quite cut it), I can't live with a phone without...

    Thoughts on a £500 budget - great camera, battery that lasts a day, and dual sim. Thinking of a refurbished S21 Ultra.

    My phone screen just got smashed to bits. I'm not interested in buying the latest and greatest as I think previous 2 years has seen some great phones. Currently at the £500 mark for refurbished I'm looking at the following. Pixel 6 Pro Pixel 7 (horrendous battery I heard) S21 Ultra Oneplus 11...

    PSU Coil Whine driving me nuts - what's the best option?

    To update everyone. I've replaced the PSU with a Corsair SF850L and the high pitched coil whine when playing high framerate games like CSGO or highly GPU taxing games like Starfield has been close to eliminated. Not completely eliminated as there is still noticeable buzzing from the coils but at...

    PSU Coil Whine driving me nuts - what's the best option?

    This is my plan B. I'll be wearing insulated gloves if I do decide to do this and not touch anything. I've ordered a new PSU for now - will see how it goes tomorrow and post back here.

    PSU Coil Whine driving me nuts - what's the best option?

    Do you recon a higher wattage psu will reduce the likelihood of coil whine?

    PSU Coil Whine driving me nuts - what's the best option?

    Yes - I've switched it with my bros 4070, coil whine still exists. He hasn't tried my card on his PC though, but his PC does not have coil whine. Also my case is split in two halves, PSU on one side, GPU on the other. Noise is 100% coming from the PSU.

    PSU Coil Whine driving me nuts - what's the best option?

    I know this topic has been probably talked to death. However, I don't think there's a definitive answer. So my question is, out of the three options below, which one is the best next step for me? 1. Replace the PSU with a different one 2. Buy a mains conditioner like this one assuming wiring in...

    Free Shipping for Loyal Forum Members

    My basket is currently £30. Also everytime I go to the profile page, the "account linked" section keeps resetting to asking me to log in. Like nothing is saving at the moment. I tried changing my contact number for example and the page just throws an error that "email already used". Looks like...

    Hmmm - I've somehow lost my link to my OCUK account and then somehow now that I've re-linked I can't seem to find the free postage option?

    Car purchase gone wrong….

    The only car I would buy out of its warranty period is a Toyota. German marques I would not touch with a barge pole without a warranty.

    Car purchase gone wrong…. No.2

    Any BMWs outside their warranty period should not be touched. Get a Toyota or something like that.

    ***The Official 5900X \5950X owners thread***

    Ah that sucks, it's my second processor after RMAing the first one, and this one has completely new auxiliary parts built around it (PSU, motherboard, RAM etc)

    Are people still suffering random reboots with their 5900x?

    The Gordon Murray T33

    I think this is the last of the great pure hyper car in the ICE era. Personally I think it looks cleaner and better than the T50/T55. I've only just started to accept the looks of the T55. This one burnt into my brain faster than the T50/T55. Of course beyond the reach from us mere mortals...

    5900x Random Restarts - All Default Settings

    Yep, I am really curious what that % is. Anecdotal evidence so far shows that it looks very high... but then the internet is pretty good at becoming a magnet when something goes wrong. But for sure there's a manufacturing issue somewhere in that long fabrication pipeline because it's pretty damn...

    5900x Random Restarts - All Default Settings

    I just want to update this thread in case someone with the same problem comes accross it. I thought I managed to make the CPU stable with the above solutions but all I did was make it last longer before it randomly restarts from a few hours to a day or two. So in the end I RMA'd it back to AMD...

    Does connecting more fans to motherboard affect overclocking?

    I should've read the manual... D'oh! Looks like I'll put more fans on the Pump header. https://imgur.com/a/dwDjs16
