    Budget Gaming PC

    After some consideration I think i'll get a PC for a few months, sell it and pick up a laptop q2/q3 this year once we see the new gpus/cpus

    Budget Gaming PC

    My only concern is regarding the AMD driver issues I keep hearing about. i'd love to support team red but as I'm going to sell this machine in 6 months I don't want something plagued by issues. I read through the thread and couldn't see anything out of the ordinary for VA monitors. It seemed...

    Why do you say that? Edit: I don't play FPS games really not sure if that makes a difference.

    New to AMD, does this build look ok?

    He states the CPU is temporary until they release new chips.

    Gigabyte Aero 15 X Gaming Notebook With GeForce GTX RTX Max-Q Graphics

    Hopefully we get reviews for the 144hz model soon. Looks like it'll struggle to take full advantage though. Out of interest, can any of the current gpu's consistently hit 120 fps plus at 1080p on modern titles?

    No Man's Sky - Procedural space game

    For anyone interested in the latest "Fight" trailer there appears to be some kind of missions. e.g. defend x ship from pirates. But thats about as much as we've seen of that system. They're clearly trying to keep stuff secret and allows players to discover it.

    Free hdd recovery software

    Recuva is worth a shot. Alternatively you can try: PhotoRec for linux. More complicated to use but better results when I've used it.

    100% Disk Usage

    Start the machine in diagnostics startup and see if the disk usage is still the same. Process explorer from tech net could help you track it down. I've seen the update service and indexing cause this issue.

    problems with 3 monitor - Resolution etc - grateful for help!

    So I'm making a couple of assumption here. 1) Your running windows 8/8.1/10 2) The issue effects text and borders of windows mainly. If that's the case then your looking for "Let me choose one scaling level for all my displays" in control panel, under display settings. Uncheck this option and...

    What phone?

    5"-6", prefer for it to be on the smaller side. Camera needs to be decent (heard good things about the G4) Phone needs to last all day with fairly heavy use (no games but a lot of screen on time e.g. email, internet). Removable battery is a must. SD Slot isn't so important as long as the phone...

    How quiet can you go?

    Disclaimer: I didn't set-up my watercooling loop so its possible it could run quieter, almost certainly in fact. The pump noise in my machine is quite noisy, much nosier than the large slow RPM fan set-up I used to run. I was expecting a wonderfully quite machine with almost no noise...

    ** POTENTIALLY THE BEST GAMING MONITORS YET!! ** Acer 34" Ultra-wides

    Specs are exactly what i'm looking for, but as other have said at near £1000 it needs to perfect. I'll wait for the Gsync version review and see what the first batch is like before I decide to jump in.

    HP/Switch Warranty cover damage?

    No harm in trying but the Limited lifetime warranty won't cover this kind of damage. Worse they can say is no.
