    I am king of the numpties!

    First thing I thought was your mouse must have a very thick cable! I'll second the head torch, game changer for fiddling around with PCs.

    The rise of UK Banking Scammers

    They don't make them like that any more :cry:

    The rise of UK Banking Scammers

    Simple policy, if someone comes to you they are a scammer until proved otherwise. If they are a scammer a few phrases in an obscure language, maybe Welsh ;), soon gets rid of them:cry:

    2024 OLED bonanza take your pick from dozens of new monitors

    Not jealous at of all these OLED owners :cry: At least being skint for a while gives me a chance to see how it all pans out. Some extra motivation to get the "computer room" redecorated too ;)

    Nvidia now worth more than Amazon and Alphabet

    Crony capitalism ;) It's the same reason Communism doesn't work, someone needs to be watching those in charge as they are mostly greedy *******'s :cry:

    7800X3D now or wait?

    I'm pretty much running an AM5 set-up on auto. Plenty fast enough, not much for a tinkerer to do but it does the job very well. If anything a little undervolt seems to be the way forward. I also keep BIOS, chipset and GPU drivers updated as it's still an evolving platform YMMV ;)

    What is the most trusted SSD?

    May as well add in my own experience here, never had one go pop even an old Intel X25M is still working. I haven't bought a HDD for a good 10 years I would think.

    Streaming from PC.

    I've just been looking into this. Sunshine sounds interesting as I have my all AMD PC upstairs and wanted to stream casual stuff to the TV downstairs. How do you get around Bluetooth controllers connecting?

    Is Teflon the best mouse mat material?

    Looks like a neat idea. I just use a fabric covered rubber mat that works well enough, I suppose it depends on how demanding your use is.

    *Competition* Show us something OP! [Prizes To Be Won]

    It's obvious, I'm OP because I've shopped at OCUK for nearly 25 years :cool:

    Recommend a first build PC with my son

    Hobbyists/enthusiasts and adults ;) There are still some civilised corners of the internet :cry: I don't envy the youth of today navigating the pitfalls of the digital world! A good lesson though for him that there are helpful people around if you seek them out in the right place.

    *** The AMD RDNA 4 Rumour Mill ***

    It all hinges on whether you think the current "sale prices" are genuine or original MSRP prices were artificially inflated? I'd say the consensus is they were inflated as an attempt to reframe pricing. Crypto and CV19 have got them drunk on profits and they don't want to let them go. To be fair...

    ***The RX 7600/XT RX 7700 XT, RX 7800 XT and 7900 GRE owners thread***

    Base clock 1860MHz, game clock 2226 MHz and boost clock 2435 MHz. Memory clock is 2250MHz 18 Gbps effective.

    Where's the 7800XT make up for the shaders, clock speed?

    ***The RX 7600/XT RX 7700 XT, RX 7800 XT and 7900 GRE owners thread***

    Looks like a nice card, if they'd launched it sooner I'd have gone for that over the 6950XT.

    ***The RX 7600/XT RX 7700 XT, RX 7800 XT and 7900 GRE owners thread***

    First one I had was a 7970, then a 5700XT and now a 6950XT. All have performed well and the build quality has got better to the point I think my 6950XT is a very good quality card. The best fit and finish I've seen was my 3060Ti FE.

    *** The AMD RDNA 4 Rumour Mill ***

    Pretty much what I took from it. "We don't know, this is my best guess". Makes sense they may be having a pause on the high end until RDNA 5. That won't affect many buyers. I'd rather see another 5700XT, decent price to performance. On a 6950XT I'll probably hold out until I see a decent 50%+...
