    BBC Top Gear - Series 23 discussion thread

    I thought it was a huge improvement on last week. The Top Gear Extra thing wasn't though... It missed both Chris Harris or Sabine's input.

    Upgrade time.

    If it is of any use - I recently upgraded (part-ex) from a D800 600mmF4 (the last gen one which i've had for 5 years) to the 800f5.6. The reasons for doing this were the prices were about to go up a notch, and I found myself using the 600 with the 1.4x on 75% of the time - 600mm on a full...

    GoPro or?

    I've been looking at the Garmin Virb XE myself. Don't need 4K at the moment, its a similar price to the GoPro and includes image stabilisation, plus Garmin's GPS (plus other data) capture which you can overlay over the video. The downside seems to be poor battery life (like the GoPro), but a...

    RIAT 2015

    Just went on Friday myself, and had pretty miserable weather, although it did at least stop raining by lunch time, and the wet weather resulted in plenty of visible vapour in the low pressure zones. Didn't come away with many shots I was happy with, flat skies are not very complementary...

    New top gear lineup..

    So much hate already for a show which is still a long way from production. How many people were complaining a year ago that Top Gear was boring and no point watching any more? However I do hope that he reinvents it as his own show - and not as a carbon copy of the three old boys. I also hope...

    *** Official Dota 2 Thread ***

    Centaur is my favourite class, and I was concerned that I'd never be able to play him again with the buffs. Thankfully that hasn't happened so far - the buffs are nice, he is able to get more health now thanks to the Aghs (about 4.6k health at level 25) and his damage has gone up considerably...

    Project Phat Penguin

    Project Phat Penguin Hello folks, This is a retrospective build log which hopefully may be of interest. The build was completed in December 2014, and I have been a bit lazy with editing the pictures and writing a few words. I am a bit light on the design thought process, but please...

    Bloody Range Rover Sports.....

    Good to hear that you had a good time Sagalout. I went green laning with Russ myself back in December on his Lake District tour - had an absolutely epic time! My little Land Rover might leak like a cullender, take ages to warm up (and then only marginally classed as 'warm'), be slow noisy...

    Gaming keyboard and mouse

    The problem with the keyboard choice is that its a very personal thing. For example, I have bought many (pretty expensive) keyboards over the years - and found that I just can't get on with keyboards which have an extra row of keys down the left hand side. I use the edge of the keyboard to let...

    Asus Rampage V waterblock

    Just want to check I haven't missed anything here - but we still haven't got any motherboard waterblocks for the Rampage V yet right? I saw that EK indicated that they were working on theirs, and expected to have them out at the end of September...

    Wondering How To Get A Job As A Gaming Scientist? Ask Richard Huddy from AMD!

    Hello Richard, Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to consider responding to our questions. I'm a big Linux fan (and a gamer), its the only OS I have in my household. With the potential for significant Linux growth over the coming months with the adoption of Steam systems...

    GoPro Hero 4

    Ah ok sounds like I made the right decision in waiting then :) I just hope the battery lasts a reasonable amount of time - according to a friend who has a '3', the battery life seems to be one area in which there is room for improvement.

    GoPro Hero 4

    Yes I think I will. I've been waiting a while for one - I didn't want to get the 3+ and find the 4 was then quickly released. However having said that - looking at the specs there doesn't appear to be anything ground breaking since the 3+. A faster CPU to enable higher framerate 4k video...

    A few snaps from the weekend's Billing Land Rover show. (1) A RangeRover demonstrating the correct way to enter water, nice and gentle... (3) Anything a RangeRover can do, a Defender can do better. (4) Of course it wasn't all nice and clean water. (5) Only...

    Kerbal Space Program

    Yes this is going to be awesome :D Having watched Mr Manley's video on how it works - it looks like it will be a great implementation of cash based missions - can't wait.

    Are Alpha/Beta releases counterproductive?

    I might agree with you on the 'big releases' - but on many of the indy titles I think its fantastic. Take Kerbal Space Program for example - its absolutely brilliant already and is only on version 0.23.5! They are using the community to provide feedback and direct the development of the game...

    Kerbal Space Program

    Do you guys not get a 64-bit KSP binary on the Windows version then? On Linux (KSP bought through Steam) we get a 64-bit version in: $HOME/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Kerbal Space Program/KSP.x86_64 This isn't used by default by the Steam launcher - so I just run it directly, and can...
