    Budget Upgrade from 6700k

    Thanks, I will take a look just now. psu works fine.. I was just a bit concerned about the load it would be under with the new cpu,gpu along with everything else. Suppose the worst that can happen is it cannot cope and starts cutting out!

    Looking to upgrade my HTC Vive One

    great, thanks for the advice. I will look into both and make the decision. Maybe if I can get a G2 cheap enough and sell my vive for £100 or so it takes the sting out of spending more money than I expected

    Upgrade Decisions - Going the full hog required?

    Will the psu hold out? I thought 750w is pushing it a bit.. its the Corsair 750cxm so not exactly high spec one.. only one way to find out I guess!

    Scammer knows an old but genuine password

    I received a few of those emails last year, I was also a bit startled to see a password and as much as I knew it was a scam almost immediately after reading the first line it did give me that push to move over to a password manager.

    When you first bought some excercise equipment...
