    NO sound coming from my computer

    Yep I have my HDMI plugged into my graphics card and AV receiver. I can also force it onto other modes too so stereo, 5.1, DTS surround etc took me ages to work out why it wasn’t coming from my sound card - still have installed an Asus Xonar card but my AV seems to work well.

    Apple Music HiFi

    Mine started working last night so have had a play with a few tracks on my shure 846 and it’s different so but pleasing. However, I would question that this a mix and is it how the artist originally intended for it to sound. I may be happier with lossless and my DAC instead. will see how it...

    Ambient room temperature

    Thankyou. If I take the case apart and have more “cooler” temperature on the components does this then make a difference ? The air entering the case or components would be similar to the air temperature.

    Ambient room temperature

    Dear all, How much does the ambient room temperature influence cooling and overclocking? My PC is in a room with an ambient temperature of 19c. Does that influence over locking and heat? I’m air cooled at moment and am wondering if water cooking will make a difference ? Thanks

    Thanks for the replies. I want to go for longevity aswell so Ryzen would be choice. Would it be better on the x570 MB? Yes I need a case...! Is my NH12 ok for Ryzen (with a new bracket) or should I get a new one? Not really interested in gaming on next gen consoles either. The PC is...

    YMMV but I run both. Nord works perfectly, and fast connecting to the UK on my PC and Laptop and I can watch iPlayer etc with no issues.
