    Apple iMac - Fusion Drive Issues (Plea for help!)

    Hello all, I need some advice guys. I was approached on the school run by a very upset lady in my boys class almost in tears. Turns out her husband upgraded their iMac (~Late 2013) the other night. It completed and he was using it for a couple of hours after. He went back to it stuck on the...

    Subnautica

    So finally found all of the parts for the Prawn Suit despite being over 25 hours game time in :) I'm really enjoying it and trying not to look on Youtube for any possible spoilers e.t.c. I just need to find the materials for AeroJel - I've been told to aim for the edge of one of the clouds...

    Subnautica

    The other night I was all lined up to by Final Fantasy 12 on PC (Just been released on Steam) then saw this pop up on the main page. I had a look and watched the trailer and wanted to play! I'm around 5 hours in and really enjoying it. Base is quite small at the moment, I'm playing on survival...

    Quake champions

    Anyone disappointed by the graphics? I'm running @ 1080p, Ultra with V-Sync on. It's buttery smooth but looks like I'm running at 640x480. The textures looks very blurred, almost like there is some interlacing going on. Just me? Edit - Hang on, just noticed that the resolution texture was set...

    Graphics Card needed for Nvidia Surround (5760x1080)

    I've just recently upgraded to a Ryzen 1700 @ 3.9Ghz but still using my old Graphics card - GTX960 4Gb. The card is actually not bad at 1080p However, I've just discovered "Nvidia Surround" where I can extend my desktop to my 3 DELL U2414 monitors for gaming to 5760x1080p. Now my poor 960 is...

    Thanks, I'll give this a try tonight. I turned off SMT last night but made no difference.

    *** Official Ryzen Owners Thread ***

    Yes, I dropped down the graphics to the lowest and made no difference to FPS. Everything else is running quicker! I get a Cinebench of ~1720 and Batman Arkham Knight runs silky smooth now.

    *** Official Ryzen Owners Thread ***

    I've tried it with no OC and it's still the same. Also clocked it to exactly what I had previously but again same result. Running latest BIOS and High Performance in Windows - really unsure.

    1800x Pins bent.

    It will be fine. So long as you've bent them back straight you should be fine mate, if they are not 100% there will be a resistance when placing in the socket.

    *** Official Ryzen Owners Thread ***

    I miss the old Creative Live Drives... Plugged it in the back and still the same, it sounded like one channel was having problems - crackling a little. So I uninstalled the drivers, Windows picked up a standard HD drive which worked then re-installed. It appears to be fine on the rear and on the...
