    Thanks for the reply Zealot, good info. If anyone would like to sound off on IPS vs VA / flat vs curved for my use case that would be great too :)

    Monitor Newb - Shopping for an ultrawide - VG35VQ, 34WL85C, Something else???

    Hi all, Planning my first monitor upgrade in about 10 years, currently have a Samsung S24D590L - 1080p, 5ms G2G, IPS, 60hz nothing spectacular (full details here). A friend of mine has an Acer XR342CK and it looks fantastic albeit a little old now and I want to jump on the ultrawide bandwagon...

    Fan Recommendation for Lian-Li TU150

    Hi Everyone, I'm trying to decide on a pair of fans for a Lian-Li TU150. RGB is highly desirable but not absolutely essential, however the fans must be daisy-chainable since I only have 1 Sysfan header on my mobo. Best I can come up with so far is this set...

    Upgrading - Torn between Ultrabook + eGPU or new tower

    Hi Everyone, Thanks for checking out my thread and providing your opinions. I'll get straight to it - below are the specifications of my desktop and current MBP. I'm only doing casual gaming at the moment (mostly beatsaber!) but it's clear that my tower isn't quite up to the task now that I'm...

    Cloud Software & Services - What do you use?

    Thanks for taking the time to reply folks. The simple fact that so many millions of people trust these services is a clear indication that I'm being overly paranoid I think. Time to set up some sort of migration plan!

    Cloud Software & Services - What do you use?

    Good afternoon everyone, It's been a while since I've posted here but I thought that the good folks of the OCUK forums are some of the best people to help me with this little quandary that I'm having. Todays subject is what is largely becoming the go-to model for software companies in so...

    Spec Me an Entry Level Road Bike

    Thanks for the tip Mr Jones that Fuji looks very nice! Out of interest has anyone had any experience with Coast-To-Coast / Roubaix (sp?) frames? They have a slightly curved top bar but their main focus is to give the rider a less aggressive riding position for additional comfort. I'm told...

    Should I bother implementing OAuth authentication, noting the security issues?

    Thanks for the replies both. The design route that I've chosen will cater for both 'Registered' users and 'Social' users. Making it easy for people to 'login with google' but also allow people to create a new account if, like me, they don't want to let 'random website z' have access to their...

    Should I bother implementing OAuth authentication, noting the security issues?

    Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've posted in HG&P, I hope you're all well. I'm just starting out on a new project and as always, security is the first thing on my mind. I've got the standard user registration / login sorted out and I was also considering adding in Social...

    Spec Me an Entry Level Road Bike

    Thanks for the replies all. Budget is around £500 for the bike and £100 for everything else (e.g. helmet). The triban's look interesting. As a 'beginner' would I notice any difference between the 3 and the 7, especially noting the higher spec chainset and rear mech? Also are there any...

    Spec Me an Entry Level Road Bike

    Greetings all! Now that we're finally getting some sun, I'm in the market for a road bike to enjoy it with. As with all of these things, there is a great deal of choice and I find myself stumped. How much is too much and where will I stop noticing a difference in spec is really the key...

    CSS Frameworks

    Hi All, I've been out of the web development game for a couple of years and have been asked to get involved on a couple of projects. I'm definitely more 'developer' than 'designer', feeling much more comfortable looking at databases and logic than messing about with the UI. Back in the...

    Advice Please: From Desktop and Laptop to Ultrabook

    Hi Everyone! For the last 'n' years I've been a two PC man. I've had a desktop with a reasonable amount of power and a laptop for mooching around the house, taking on road trips etc etc. Over the last year or so, I've found myself needing the 'power' of the desktop less and less...

    Reputable good value Insurer... Does one exist?

    It's that time of year again to renew the car insurance. For the last 8 years I've been with Tesco, despite their reputation since they have served my family well. However, when my renewal came through this year, there had been the usual price-hike but this time Tesco would not budge on the...

    Been away for a while, new build advice

    Quick follow up questions: I need a WiFi enabled motherboard because I can't get an ethernet cable to my desk, would the Gigabyte Z77N be suitable? Also, a friend of mine is running this CPU with the stock HSF at the moment and he's getting circa 60 degrees under high load, well within...
