Happy dance Happy dance the beast is alive.
Just got a new PSU today from overclockers and I got the Super flower 750 watt.
Everything is now running ok so looks like it was just the PSU that blew.
New psu is lovely and quiet. Has a nice white light emitting from it and the best part is that...
As I feared even a paper clip couldn't bring life back into the beast.
I've contacted corsair and will get another psu ordered.
Hoping nothing else has gone pop grrr.
Going to take a look and see if I check using the links above to see if the psu is blown.
Just looking through my documents it was only feb 2010 that I got my last rma from corsair.
I had a psu blow that took out my motherboard and ram.
Fingers crossed it's just the psu that's blown...
I think my psu has bit the bullet sob sob.
It's a corsair hx 650 w and when I turned on my pc today it tripped the main house power socket fuse box. Reset the fuse box and pressed power and no lights nothing.
It doesn't smell of burning and can't see anything blown on the motherboard or...
Been tearing my hair out getting this to work still.
Pc wouldn't post and after lots of faffing and swapping out gfx,memory and going back to the stock cooler it's the memory.
Now according to the motherboard manual dual channel=sticks in same colour.
If I attempt to boot like this the...
Yeah I did try that and it will fit just it's like 1-2 mm from the ram.
After having a glass of red wine I've realised I could just put the fan on the opposite of the cooler block.
So might give that a try as I had to reset the cpu cooler anyway as someone forget to plug in one of the power...
Finally ordered my new pic bits the other day and I'm struggling to make it fit.
I got a Alpenföhn K2 Mount Doom CPU Cooler, Gigabyte Z87-D3HP Intel Z87 and some Patriot Viper "Black Mamba" Generation 3 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz memory.
The space between the memory and cooler...
Looking to build a new rig and not sure what to even get.
My current pc is a e2180 dual core chip, 4 gig ram and a 4870 power colour gfx card.
Been looking for a few days now and just can't make my mind up what to get.
I've seen quite a few builds quoted still using ivybridge chips so...
I do 5 miles and used to drive but I'm hoping to start cycling in. Mainly to save money as spending 1100 quid a year on a car seems a bit of a waste.
Although sat in the car in the warm when it's raining or snowing is rather enjoyable as people get drenched and cold.
Watch me post in a week...
I was going to Southport after a night out in Liverpool and met the famous southport sockman.
He said he was collecting socks for charity so took my photo with a polaroid camera and put them into a plastic bag.
Thought it was strange at the time and nobody believed me until a few years laster...
Used to have a neighbour who lived opposite me who used to shout if you parked outside her house. She didn't drive and people never parked over the driveway and she still moaned.
She used to leave notes on cars if you did park there and one guy she cut the ropes holding the ladders onto...
Wordy I've also fallen trap to this and bought it.
Been reading about it all day the huge karma drama incident and thought I want to play.
Just waiting for the patch to finish install as I want to play.
Not even going to read about classes and races etc as I saw the word engineer and thought...
After drooling seeing a friend reading comics on his ipad I am tempted to get one of these.
Although from what I've read comics is readable but not amazing.
It's amazing how a gadget can come out that I don't even need and I'm trying to justify why I need one to myself lol.
