    Aorus Owner's Lounge

    Just wanted to come on and say that my Aorus X7 V7 (GTX 1080) has packed in. Same issue as the one posted in this thread. I've had it since August 2017 so it is now outside the 2 year warranty. The V7 was extremely poor in quality compared to the previous Aorus I bought (whichever one the...

    Aorus Owner's Lounge

    Purchased my X7 DT V7 16 months ago and the power supply has now packed in. That was replacing my Aorus X7 PRO that broke after 2 years (screen died). Seems the build quality on these things is really substandard because I'm not throwing my laptops about -- there isn't a scratch on other of...

    I'm also the same. I find the TN panel horrific for viewing, especially in bed. Constantly trying to readjust it so I can see things properly.

    Aorus Owner's Lounge

    Well, I'm using it at a LAN now and it performs well at least in games. However, another issue I've found is that there's some flex in the top part/lid of the laptop. So you can push it in and there's a very noticeable popping of the lid. Not great build quality at all. I've got the old X7...

    Hello, new X7 owner here after handing down my old X7 (the 2x970M one) to the misses for LANs. The trackpad is worse than the glass one on the previous X7, for sure, and the screen has a very very bad viewing angle. However, the thing that's actually annoying me the most is the god damn...

    How many have now bought 980Ti because of Fury X release

    Bought 2 x 980 Ti after the E3 reveal. I figured they either had the world's worst marketing division or they had nothing of comparative worth to offer. Either way, it didn't make me want to give them any money for such a lacklustre, awful performance and made me lose any faith in them as a...

    The GTX 980 Ti owners thread.

    Hi guys, Just thought I'd share with you some very simple benches I ran in Unigine Heaven. Yeah, I know, not the best benchmark software but I like my benchmark numbers in FPS, not some seemingly arbitrary score. Rig Asus Rampage IV Extreme i7 3930K @ 3.2 Ghz OC'd to 4.4 Ghz 16 GB DDR3 @...

    The GTX 980 Ti owners thread.

    The reference/non-SC cards are supposed to be 1075 Mhz boost clock, but the Overclocker's cards I installed today (Manli brand) are boosting to 1175Mhz as stock/with no changes from me. Is this normal?

    The GTX 980 Ti owners thread.

    GPU-Z reports the correct 6144MB of memory. Must be some sort of incompatibility with CPU-Z and Unigine Heaven, I guess? I was slightly worried, and then I checked some Google videos and benchmark pictures of other people with 980 Ti's and saw the same was happening to them and felt a bit...

    The GTX 980 Ti owners thread.

    Hi guys, Just put my 2x980 Ti's in my rig and ran a few benches/checked up on it in CPU-Z. Is it supposed to be reporting only having 4095MB of memory?

    Upgrade help on 2011 system (sorry)

    Hi guys, Sorry to be "that person" who asks for advice on whether I need to upgrade or not. I'm currently waiting for the new AMD offering and the 980 Ti's to see what happens there and plan to buy 2 of whatever turns out to be better and Crossfire/SLI them. I am running an "old" setup from...

    New System: BSOD/Instability

    Okie dokie. I've changed the memory timings in the BIOS. Only slight issue was that the CAS option had "auto", "4", "5", "6" ... but no "3". Seemed a little odd? Is my Q6600 ok at 1.3v?

    New System: BSOD/Instability

    Yeah, sorry, I got your post before the edit so I was enquiring where to get the proper timings, rather than where to edit them! Thank you for your help. I'll go give this a go and report back!

    New System: BSOD/Instability

    Edit: Doh! You edited :X Thanks for your help -- have never had to do this before. Is this something to do with the hardware I've purchased, or is this starting to become the norm?

    New System: BSOD/Instability

    Hi folks, I setup my new system yesterday but have found the system to be unstable; sometimes causing a BSOD and causing a system restart. I am running everything at stock, no overclocking: Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "LGA775 Kentsfield" 2.40GHz (1066FSB) - Retail Crucial Ballistix 2GB...
