About to receive my Vega64 this week from someone here on OCUK - rather than read through 400+ pages, are there any particular setup hints and tips? I've got the Sapphire Nitro+ version on the way, undervolting seems recommended? Anything else?

Not got it yet, I had recently bought a Cf791 which is a 3440x1440 ultrawide - I know the Vega will be a big upgrade in that regard, not sure I can justify the processor upgrade and what it entails yet

Howdy, my 390x died recently and I've just bought a Vega 64 to replace it from the MM. I am still running the 6 core i7 3930k which has served me for a long time, is it time to upgrade from x79 and ddr3? Do you think it would be worthwhile? I'm looking at potentially high end stuff, i.e...

Didn't build one, but I bought a used dell optiplex 3050 for £200, it's micro form factor, i3 7100, 8gb ram (upgradable), doesnt have an internal dvd drive though. It'd my go to sort of suggestion over a new build, but probably against the grain of your request haha

Just out walking at the moment, it is the latest version of Windows 10, here is a list of what I have tried so far MSI Afterburner to underclock the graphics card (I did contemplate playing with voltages but I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing) Reformat with obvious fresh driver installs I...

Evening folks! Bit of an odd one this, I consider myself pretty knowledgeable most of the time but in this scenario I'm pretty stumped - randomly whilst playing Path of Exile (and very rarely outside of it), my computer will black screen - sometimes play a repeating sound over and over and...

I have a relatively old PC now, but with pretty high end components. Asus Rampage IV Extreme & i7 3930k (6 core) & 16gb of ram with a 390X Every time I come to spec an upgrade, pretty much the only major benchmark changes come from a change of graphics card - I think it would likely be a lot...

I actually won an auction for a Dell OptiPlex 3050 Micro for £155 - 7th gen i3, 8gb ram, wireless, bluetooth etc etc - think that was quite the bargain, so it should be perfect :-)

I've been looking at these for a while, and am starting to think they could serve me well for what I wanted. I've been using my Raspberry Pi as a download box thus far, and a sepearte PC for a plex server - I'd be looking to amalgamate the two, and making the NUC effectively a file server and...

Afternoon, I've been using my main PC for this task (not 24/7) and turning it off and on has been getting annoying, hot and expensive over the last few months! I am looking at investing in a Plex / File server. I priced up the stuff below, but I really don't know a great deal about this stuff -...

That has thrown a cat amongst the pigeons... it doesnt look to support HDCP 2.2 however which is required for BT's UHD service Looks like an amazing TV however...

I'm actually looking at the Samsung UE55JS9000 right now... its ~£1399 My dad has the exact same TV and it is gorgeous, is there anything else you would consider for the same price point? Edit - the other one I've been looking at is LG 55UH850V - but I can't find as much about that?

Looking for new TV's always gives me a headache - there are so many conflicting reviews out there it makes life very hard! I am replacing a 5 year old 51" TV. Thus far for around 800-900 I have been looking at the following (with the possibility of adding a soundbar) SONY BRAVIA...

There was a pcie switchboard on the mobo, the third slot was off by default :-)

False alarm, it was a case of rtfm!

Just building my computer at the moment, I have a Rampage IV Extreme and a 390x. With my noctua cooler my 390 won't fit in the usual graphics card slot - should it work in the other pcie 16x slot? Do I need to do anything first? It isn't working

Think I might indeed order the luxe, read some reviews and they sound great!

The phanteks enthoo pro looks very nice actually!

Afternoon all, I did post something similar in the cases forum but it is rarely populated. I have an Asus Rampage IV Extreme & 3930k and I didn't realise years ago when I bought it that it was E-ATX. Luckily my case worked fine, however it is not compatible with newer graphics cards (390x)...
