    Nvidia RTX 5 months on-a win or fail?

    Price was a fail, definitely. I can see a justification somewhat in the larger die size compared to previous gen but.... That being said, I bought a TI and put a waterblock on it and, in isolation, I am very pleased with the performance - who wouldn't be. I enjoy playing with the various demos...

    What has been your best computer hardware / software purchase?

    Lots of good purchases (lots of bad ones too :)) but the most recent one is the Pixelbook - Effin love that thing. Looks fantastic, best keyboard ever and only 1Kg. I didn't really need a laptop but when it was announced I fell in love. Haven't had a Chromebook before so it has been interesting...

    U.S. Keyboard layout, can I somehow get my (£) back?

    Hmm, keycaps - didn't think of that. Could be an option.

    i5-9600 Overclocking

    Doing a bit of experimenting myself but haven't had much time. Running a 9600K and an Asus prime z390-a. Ended up using the 1-click 5Ghz OC option in the BIOS which has been rock stable :) Looking forward to getting into the manual settings - any chance you could post yours in XTU as a reference?

    Membrane to mechanical keyboard

    As been said, try o-rings. However, I have had issues with the corsair keyboards - 2 K-65s so far had this same issue after as little as a couple of months of use. I switched it out for a fnatic one, which I am very happy with.

    U.S. Keyboard layout, can I somehow get my (£) back?

    If you can stomach having the "wrong" symbols on the keys, then just switch to a UK layout on the keyboard. There are a few differences in layout but minor ones.

    a word of warning aka you learn the hard way

    Had a recent scare as well a couple of months back. In my fileserver I had installed the leftovers of my watercooling components after a few upgrades to my desktop. An XSPC reservoir/pump combo which has been happily humming along for about 3 years UNTIL!!! Due to my lack of diligence, I didn't...

    Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

    We will get performance numbers for all cards - whichever you want to compare it to is up to you really. Generally price brackets will be used to compare rather than model numbers, which are arbitrary anyhow.

    Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

    The point Usersonic is making is likely correct. The Titan no longer exists because of the separation of the professional GPU/Gamer GPU designs. Also, the new Turing die is huge, which additionally would add to the pricing. I am tempted to go all out on a 2080TI and as I will be heading to the...

    advice on which of these fans please for 60mm thick radiator

    Cant really go wrong with the Noctuas - apart from looks they are probably the best. The noiseblockers look interesting but I seem to remember a review that stated they were not particularly quiet. Noctuas are not silent on max setting - run them around 800-1000 rpm and they are fine.

    Stuck at 60 FPS on g-sync 100Mhz panel

    I got the Asus PG348Q. Splashed out some 9 months ago - haven't regretted it one bit.

    Stuck at 60 FPS on g-sync 100Mhz panel

    Thanks for all the pointers - some good ones in there I didn't know about. I just did a clean install of the drivers and the behavior is normal now. Thanks again all.

    Stuck at 60 FPS on g-sync 100Mhz panel

    Hi all Got a 1080 and an Asus 34" 100 Mhz panel - recently I have noticed that games and Unigine tests cap out at 60 Fps. I have fast sync on in control panel and have checked that the monitor is actually running 100 Mhz but have no idea what else to check to find out why this is happening. Any...
