    NVME Gen3 vs Gen4 ???

    Just to close the circle, I the was looking at the P41 2TB for £85 mentioned above... the price was crazy good and hard to resist, but the benchmarks didn't justify replacing my ADATA drive. Thanks to everyone for input!

    NVME Gen3 vs Gen4 ???

    With low prices right now, wondering if it's worth replacing my ADATA SX8200 Pro 2TB with a WD 850x or Hynix P41 Platinum... advice appreciated! System is Ryzen 5900X and MSI Tomahawk X570 mobo (I don't have any free NVMe slots).

    Are you on the Ultimate Volt package? If you are on a lower package then you can shift her O2 tariff to something cheaper... I just signed up to 30GB for £8, which will boost to 60GB. However, I read somewhere that the Ultimate Volt package requires you to be on the O2 unlimited data tariff...

    Virgin Media Discussion Thread

    If you don't really want to leave VM, is it foolhardy to cancel and call their bluff waiting for a better deal? A real negotiator would say a person leaving and then subsequently coming back for a deal to stay has lost leverage. Do they always chase you if you cancel? Last time I cancelled Sky...

    When you say all the TV channels bar sports, does that mean you have Sky Movies? Are you only missing Sky Sport or also BT Sport? We must have signed up around the same time, and I thought I got a really good NHS staff deal, but it sounds like you did even better!

    The pricing is all over the place... I'm in Bigger Bundle M350 Oomph (6GB SIM) which is currently £47 and goes up to £96 on 2nd Feb... How does your Gig1 with Volt and all TV only go to £67 off contract?

    Virgin Media Discussion Thread

    I'm currently paying £47... TBH I'm surprised I got a new offer so close to my current price. Does anyone think I might get a lower price if I actually cancel and wait? Last couple of times I've played this game of cancel and wait, it's not yielded much. The deal offered right now is the...

    Currently on bundle with M350 BB, but coming to end of fixed term... new offers from Virgin include M250 or M350 for £5 more per month... my gut feeling is that I won't tell the difference dropping to M250, so save the money... thoughts?

    Tablets and Samsung Dex - advice please

    Sad news... can't use my birthday voucher on the EPP website, so best price I can achieve is £401... still a decent discount, but we were already on the fence at £340... will wait and see what comes up in Samsung Week and BF. Another option that has distracted me is the Lenovo Tab P11 Pro Gen 2...

    Rugby union?

    With the salary cap, more money does not necessarily mean a bigger squad. Also, I believe that the majority of pro players start in a Developing Player Programme (DPP) from 14 years old, or at least club academies in their late teens, so I don't think there are many pro players with an "amateur...

    Rugby union?

    I can't think how 2 full squads can get absorbed into other clubs, even considering Scotland, Wales, Ireland and France. Can't see many going to Italy, a couple might go to Japan.

    Today is the 20th anniversary of the Big Nuke - OcUK are giving away a Ducky One 3 keyboard

    22-11-2003 England won the rugby world cup... maybe the person picking is a rugby fan?!?!? Australia weren't the golden duck that day!!! (Get it, Australia play in gold, golden duck, ducky pun... I'll get my coat?!) I still remember the shift to the new forum and amazed to see it was so long...

    Tablets and Samsung Dex - advice please

    Thanks for input. I'm a big fan of Xiaomi phones (and Honor, Oppo, etc) and can't bring myself to pay the money for a comparable Samsung phone. It is reassuring to hear positive feedback about Dex, which is a bit of an unknown for me right now. @Countcussy I can get discount through Perk@work...

    OcUK RTX4000 series review thread

    I would have thought someone would have questioned the 4x performance difference between the 4090 and 3090Ti before posting those results publicly!

    Tablets and Samsung Dex - advice please

    My 10 year old has asked for a new tablet... she currently has a Huawei MediaPad M5 lite 32GB, and is complaining that it is getting "glitchy" and she is running out of space. She used her tablet for games, watching movies and school work. I found myself considering multiple (and very different)...

    Google Pixel Tablet

    I think the success of this will lie in the pricing versus the Google Hub products.

    Which Canon MegaTank printer? G3560 or G650

    Advice and input wanted, please. I've finally conceded to get a new printer after my family have continued to complain after the last one died about a year ago. I was put off getting a new one due to the hassles of inkjet cartridges, but I'm liking the look of the Canon MegaTank range. I'm...
