    Has the "GPU Voucher" subforum gone? Or... have I lost permission somehow?

    This would be useful to know. I don't have may posts so it may be due to that.

    Why do we run, is it good for you?

    Well done. I found walking and lost a lot of weight too. When the weight came down I started running and I've been doing it for 5-6 years now. I've done a couple of marathons and countless half marathons. What I will say is get the correct trainers for you. Not the nice looking ones you see but...

    New PC build. Now or hold on for DDR5

    I have decided just to see if I can get a GPU and see how the system holds up around it. Not going to pay these ridiculous prices that are going about at the moment though. Thanks for everyone's input.

    New PC build. Now or hold on for DDR5

    I got a bit excited a while ago and got an ultrawide 1440x3440 and what your saying is supported by the stats on the system now. GPU running at 100% and none of the cores really reach 50%. thanks

    New PC build. Now or hold on for DDR5

    I agree 6700xt’s are so expensive and not worth the price people are charging. I’m going to do the grown up thing and just wait. :rolleyes: (How boring)….

    New PC build. Now or hold on for DDR5

    The end of 2022 :eek: OMG :cry: I think the sensible thing to do is give it till December and see how things are while still trying to get a GPU for a sensible price.

    New PC build. Now or hold on for DDR5

    lots of good advice thank you. I do make sure the PC is dust free and clean. New thermal paste and clean install of windows. I will do this as windows has been on it for years without a clean install. I do have an SSD. I really appreciate the time you all have taken to help.

    New PC build. Now or hold on for DDR5

    I agree if you were to always wait for the next thing you would never have anything but I am trying to be sensible and no look back and think “why did I not just wait a bit longer”

    New PC build. Now or hold on for DDR5

    I have a 4790k and just managed to get a loan of an RX480 GPU, 16gb memory. Gaming mostly not multiplayer l’m getting on a bit and can’t keep up how fast these guys are. You can definitely tell the GPU is getting on a bit. I would just replace the GPU if I could get one at a good price but you...

    2x 780GTX's in SLI with a 4790K CPU Not at full use help

    Thanks for the effort. I hadn’t look yet but that’s alright. I paid £250 per card back then as far as I can remember so that’s a decent return. I always get a bit nervous about selling stuff like that on eBay with all the “it arrived not working” rubbish that goes on. :cry:

    1440p 144hz monitor recommendations?

    Have you thought of a ultra wide 1440p. I have the ilyama ultra wide 1440 and it’s an absolute bargain at the moment. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/iiyama-34-g-master-gb3461wqsu-b1-3440x1440-ips-144hz-1ms-hdr-freesync-ultrawide-gaming-monitor-mo-13j-iy.html I’ve had it a while and I’m totally...

    New PC build. Now or hold on for DDR5

    Hello All, I was looking to build a good PC but I think I’m looking at the wrong time. With the possibility of DDR5 coming out and all the sockets changing soon. Should I hold on? I know it’s an age old question but the last PC I build was 2014 and it lasted well. I just don’t want to...

    Fish Tank Cooling

    I like and have fish. I like and have a PC. I have never thought of combining the two. Might be a bit cruel on the fish. :eek::cry:

    3060 Ti - The Right Choice? Stock?

    I’m in the same boat at the moment but I think the 3070 is where I’m going to try and go. Its just a case of how long do you hold out for and the cost :confused:

    Selling GPU to CEX

    Your a man of morales which is very commendable. But as people have said CEX is where I would sell it. If people want to pay the higher price for cards then there is nothing you can do about it. Do what’s best for you. Good luck.

    What are the 30 year old plus gamers playing?

    Telltale games have a few good ones The walking dead if you like that kind of thing. Batman The Wolf among us they have a few others as well but can’t remember the names. Maybe worth a look??

    2x 780GTX's in SLI with a 4790K CPU Not at full use help

    Very well explained. Thank you. I’ll take a look at ebay and see how much they are going for. If not they are nice looking cards they might end up in my man cave on a display shelf.
