    Quite specific laptop spec needed 'approx' £400 - 10"-13"

    Sorry to hijack - I'm also after a <13.3 inch laptop for about £400. My only requirement really is that it has a dedicated graphics card of some description (it needs to run SolidWorks). Any help would be great! Shame the Acer 8371 is so expensive these days :(

    Lightweight laptop for <£600

    Hey guys, A friend of mine is in need of a new laptop, and has asked me to find her one. The only criteria is that it's as light as possible, with a decent screen size. So I'm thinking 13.3-14 inch if possible. It'll be used for emails, web browsing, watching movies etc. £600 is the absolute...

    I went from SLI GTX 275's to one GTX 275 (graphics cards don't like summer fruits squash) to an MSI GTX560. I was gunna get a 570 but I'm a bit skint and didn't wanna fork up the extra £80+. I'm really impressed so far, good framerates in everything I've played so far, is silent and load...

    Why aren't arts degrees "real degrees"?

    I'm a third year mechanical engineering student. I did maths, physics and chemistry - I think most places want maths and physics and something 'relevant', though to be honest so long as you have good grades in maths and physics you should be fine :) There are definitely times where myself and...

    Checking for keyloggers

    Cheers :) I think the issue is that even if he changes his information on another PC (which he has done) he still needs to log on using the works computer. I'll get him to run said programs and see what comes back.

    Checking for keyloggers

    Hey guys, My girlfriends dad is having a bit of a mare with his eBay account. It wouldn't be so bad except that it's for his business. Someone keeps hacking in and locking him out, and selling junk. I don't have access to look at his computer, but is there anything you could recommend to...

    5850 CF or GTX 570?

    Sorry if this has been covered before.. I used to have two GTX 275's in my rig, until my friend decided to pour a glass of squash into it. One of my cards is dead, but the other is still alive. My plan was to sell the working card and put the cash towards a single GTX 570.. However, seeing...

    Sound card for Aego M's?

    Thanks for the input guys :) I think I'll do a bit more research before buying a card - I might even go for a cheaper card, if the D2X is too much for the Aego's

    Sound card for Aego M's?

    I've treated myself to some Aego M's for Christmas, but I'd like to get the most out of them. I've never used a sound card before, so I'm a bit of a rookie I'm afraid :confused: I've been thinking about getting the Asus Xonar D2X? Is this a good choice for the moneys? I don't really wanna...

    Redbull Shots vs Pro Plus

    I drink a lot of Red Bull but only cos my housemate works for them, so there's always some lying around, and because there simply aren't enough hours in the day :( If you get the shots, get the original ones. The diet ones taste like nail varnish :)

    ~£300 SolidWorks/MATLAB Build

    Yeah it'll just be small parts and assemblies. I thought an actual GPU might be a better route to go, especially for 30 quid. I can run SolidWorks on my netbook (GMA 3150?) and it's alright, just a little laggy, so the 5450 should be fine. Cheers for the comments guys, might get this one...
