I'm very much in the same boat actually. My bipolar II diagnosis was last year and I was only diagnosed with ADHD last month. A lot of clinicians believe you have to treat any mood disorders before the ADHD, but there's an increasing amount of evidence to suggest it is actually vice versa for...

I imagine you've checked this but was your SSD definitely partitioned as UEFI and not legacy on your old board? Are you able to enable legacy booting on your new board to try that? If not, I think having the drive set to AHCI vs another setting can cause this, so it might be worth checking what...

Yeah that looks like the correct flow to me :)

Classic problem, I went with an Eheim Pickup 45 in my 57L - adjustable flow rate from 50lph to 180lph. Another good option is the Elite Stingray 5. Just take out your existing filter media and float it loose in the tank, should be zero problems but you can always monitor ammonia/nitrite if...

I do try and mix it up a bit but they only begrudgingly eat the other foods now lol. Yeah ours love dried bloodworms too, I have to grind them up quite fine though as they're too big, one of ours was swimming around for a few hours with his mouth stuck open because he'd tried to inhale one...

Amazing fish, well chosen! I highly recommend Hikari Bio-Gold pellets. Ours took to Fluval Bug Bites and Tetra Shrimp/Krill flakes at first, now that they've tried the Hikari pellets they look visibly disgusted at anything else. Plus you can hear them crunching and it's quite funny

Used Humanscale Freedom should be within your price range. I bought a used one for £135 delivered and it's amazing, so much so that I've bought a second one (£182 this time, demand seems to be quite high).

Hi everyone, not posted in here before. I know this probably isn't going to be helpful to people who'd struggle to afford it in times like these (my apologies), but I recommend looking into private healthcare if your experience with NHS services is as bad as mine was. I've been awaiting a...

Yeah they can get bloody huge those things, I've had a few pop up out of nowhere. Enjoy the betta, though be warned they're addictive, I've got 3 now lol.

I'd personally say delete them, it's a bladder snail and they can be a real pest, worst of all they can reproduce asexually. Eggs can take a while to hatch too so it can be difficult to fully remove a large infestation. Odds are they probably came in on a plant - I prefer to quarantine my...

Yes it was the Intel graphics drivers, just the latest ones from Intel's website did the trick.

Yes it might be worth changing it back to 'sleep' if you want that behaviour, as it would probably happen again if the issue was still there - the issue in my case was specifically coming out of sleep. I'd personally recommend updating to the latest driver from Intel's website (I assume it is...

I have seen exactly the same glitch on two Inspiron 15 3000 2-in-1 with integrated Intel graphics, occurring when coming out of sleep mode. In both cases, an update of the Intel graphics driver resolved the issue.

I recently was given another dead system of the same model, that had the GPU version with heatsink and backplate. Although I repaired the dead board so that it would boot, it still won't POST, so I decided to use it to do a slightly neater version of this mod on my working system ;). I used the...

So odd problem - I've actually noticed that the CPU cores are down to ~35*C at idle, and it's the HD 4000 core (and hence the package temperature) that is idling at ~50*C. Any idea why there would be such a big disparity here? Also in reply to above - both fans are 2.4CFM and are used...

So I did the mod - went fine, and all fitted OK. Temps at idle are unchanged (with the fan tripping on/off @ 50*C this is perhaps to be expected), but load temps have been reduced by about 12~15*C. Haven't yet tried bridging the CPU and GPU plates. Might give that a go, and if there's no...

I might have a go at epoxying a heatpipe between the CPU-GPU plates after all then - would have been great to compare them unmodified to the UMA heatsink for the sake of discussion, but the extra bits of metal surrounding the CPU side would make the data noncomparable. Anyone know the best way...

Interesting - without knowing the substance in the heatpipe, surely there must still be a dynamic range here though? ie the heat at the fins is still going to be greater than the heat at the GPU end, which will be at room temp ish, so there will still be some movement from the fins to the GPU end?

How so - surely a certain degree of heat will be drawn back into the GPU end down a temperature gradient? My understanding of heatpipes is limited, but they aren't unidirectional are they? A few people have told me it will just take longer to reach max temp but not actually reducing the temp...

Thanks all - I'm 99% sure the GPU version will fit as the chassis is exactly the same, and the GPU/UMA boards are virtually identical excepting that the radeon chip is physically missing. I think the heatpipe just looks shorter as the back of the fan has metal on the GPU version, and connects up...
