With an Outlander PHEV, it's mostly inefficient to charge the battery from the engine. It costs more in fuel than you gain in mileage terms. You can get some gains when doing above 50 - 60mph, as the engine is already working, so it can charge at the same time. Running on electric at these...

I've seen a problem at work with Surface Pro 3s. The USB cables supplied were causing the wifi to drop out. Try, wrapping the cable in foil. Or getting a couple of ferrite cores and put one each end. Or replace the cable for one with ferrite cores.

I would have thought so. This does seem a good option for flexibility and not being tied into anything if you don't have the cash upfront.

You're paying £69 + £56.45 x11 to rent the phone. You have to give it back when you upgrade. You then have your tarriff on top. Maybe better buying with a 0% credit card or cash and then selling if you want the next one.

Glad it all went ok. Best thing to do is make sure the boot drive is plugged into SATA port 0. Then in Bios settings make sure that port is set as the 1st port. This will save problems in future if you have to reset the BIOS for any reason. Although it should still boot from the old drive if it...

Ignore, didn't read properly.

Thanks Danny. The goal posts keep moving. I am ideally looking for a sub £100 board. I probably should have done a "spec me" thread, for a board and 3200Mhz RAM to go with a Ryzen 1600. Cheap as possible!

Thats not bad :)

May go for the K4 version. It has more 4 pin fan headers. Which I'll need, if im using the stock coooler. Just need to sort memory, as Corsair seems to be out of stock everywhere.

Thanks, it was save me some cash to go with the 1600. Looks like it overclocks quite easily. How about the AB350M - Pro 4 ? I was originally lookng at this one. How do I tell? I have this list. There's a fair few Corsair in there.

I'm looking to upgrade my rig to Ryzen. Any help appreciated. I have HDD, 600W PSU and GFX I'm currently torn between 1600 & 1600X. 1600X means I may need to find another cooler. I currently have a CM Seidon V2, but I can't find an AM4 bracket. CM don't have any. Another AIO would be nice as...

Nice job on moving all that data. You get about 930GB usable space on a 1TB drive. so should be good to go. There is a rule of thumb that you shouldn't use more than 80%. But that's for a normal HDD. Not sure if it applies to SSDs though. Just see how the performance is. Have you downloaded...

Doesnt look like you've got much wriggle room. You need to trim anything you can. Run Disk Clean-up (Right-click the drive in windows explorer, properties, Disk clean up) and clean up system files. Create a 2nd partition on Disk 2, as big as possible, once you've got rid of some data. Move as...

Moving your paging/swap file to to a different drive, will save the need for a new drive. Unless your drives are >80% full.

It's fairly straight forward. If you have more than a 1TB of Data. Create a partition of Windows files and a seperate partition for your Data. Or move as much data as you can to a separate drive. You can download and use a trial version of Macrium reflect to clone your C: drive, to the new...

I expect there to be many more toll roads come 2040. Once the duty on fuel revenues dry up, due to everything being electric.

It takes some skill to drive a Cheiftan well. It has a gear pedal like a motor bike. (As do the CVRTs). Timing the changes smoothly is not easy. The 432's have a "go" pedal and you pull the levers to turn and together to stop. If they put you through any big puddles. Just gently speed up as you...

Sign up to Ingress. Then download an app called "Nearby Ingress". https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keitark.nearbyingress&hl=en_GB It shows you where all of the Pokestops / gyms are, as it uses the same data set to create them. It will save you a lot of driving around. Also...

I picked this up on a bit of a whim. I got fed up with raging on WoT, and I couldn't seem to get back onto E.D. I've always liked this type of game, but never really stuck with it. Civ 4 was last I tried. I really enjoy this at the mo. Probably because I'm learning loads of new concepts. A lot...

Keep them topped up to 1000 and they build away quite nicely.
