    Bought a Cyrus soundkey and sound quality seems inferior?

    Thinking about returning it but before I do I'm looking for everyone's thoughts. I had my Z490E onboard Realtek connected to my Teac A-H500i amp. Speakers are B&W D601 S2s. Then I thought I'd buy and use a DAC instead over the Realtek onboard and chose the Cyrus Soundkey. I feel the Cyrus...

    Windows 7 recognises Xbox controller but games don't?

    Thanks :) Managed to resolve it. Was on a similar note to what you mentioned. Changed the controller in device manager to an Xinput device.

    Windows 7 recognises Xbox controller but games don't?

    Hi, https://imgur.com/a/tfhCaBE As you can see I've managed to connect to my new Xbox wireless controller via bluetooth and I can test it successfully in Windows but no game recognises it? When playing Shenmue 3 for example it doesn't respond to any of the button presses. Any ideas why...

    NCP £100 fine - overstayed by quarter of an hour

    Hi, Paid £8 for 3 hours but overstayed by quarter of an hour. I have a PCN requesting £100. How they've come to this ridiculous amount I've no idea (£60 if paid within 14 days). Could park for 4 days for £100 at that same car park. Is it best to appeal on grounds that the amount is unjustified...

    Philips Fidelio X2 / Grado SR225e alternatives?

    Hi, Looking to upgrade from my Sennheiser HD595 which have also cracked and broken fully on the side of the head band. Initial research came up with the Philips Fidelio X2 and Grado SR225e. Super gutted I can't find anywhere that sells the former and the latter is not full over the ear style...

    Can I send scented candles abroad?

    Hi, I know perfumes are prohibited but I can't seem to find any reference to scented candles in the Royal Mail/Parcelforce Prohibited and restricted items leaflet. Anyone know for sure? Thanks :)

    Possible USB 3.0 front panel I/O issue?

    Have you tried unplugging the USB 3 cable to the motherboard and checking for bent pin/s on the USB 3 header? Also try the cable on another header if your motheboard has a 2nd one available.

    £2K budget, new gaming PC. Help me spec before 4pm cutoff?

    With Legend's recommendations too, I'll probably be looking at something like this. Personally would go for a Noctua heatsink myself but you asked for watercooled so an AIO will be the only choice as custom is more expensive of course.... My basket at Overclockers UK: 1 x Intel Core...

    £2K budget, new gaming PC. Help me spec before 4pm cutoff?

    If the main use is gaming potentially at 4K like you say, I would definitely prioritise the GPU. You can easily fit in a 7700K and a 1080 on a 2k budget if you're willing to make cut backs on other components.

    Mobo or CPU failure?

    Hi So I took out my 8800GTS from my second system I use to learn Linux to test a 6800GT. On boot up I saw one of the components on the back of the PCB glow and burn out. I've tried my original 8800GTS and 460GTX and also tried a different ram set and PSU. All scenarios I just get the...
