Good day all, I've just invested in the i7-8086k processor after my 6800k failed and was causing freezing issues. I use my rig for gaming, and my main game is WoW (which I know is more CPU heavy than GPU). Now, I'm a complete novice when it comes to overclocking, and reading output and such...

I've got very little experience in computer hardware. However, I've been looking at buying my first gaming PC, specifically to play Planet Coaster and The Sims 4 on high settings (though the latter is far less demanding), potentially for Photoshop too. I'd also like it to be good for the next...

Hi all, it feels like too long since I last perused these forums but I've come back to the realm of PC Building and with some questions! My main issue at the moment is finding what case, motherboard, PSU & CPU cooler to run for a small form factor gaming PC that I can transport with relative...

Hi all, Hoping you wonderful people could help me out specing up a decent pc. After 5-6 years away from PC gaming I’m so out of touch it’s embarrassing. Unfortunately the games I play seem to be rather taxing on the system Looking to spend between 700 - 800 on a pc that can run a MS Flight...

I'm looking for a laptop at an £800 budget that can handle most games at decent settings. I'll also be using it to create fairly graphic-intensive games using Unity, so I need it to have a decent processor. These are the two I've sorta shortlisted, but can't decide between the two. **No...

Ive Just purchased a GTX 1070 from someone, barely used and I’ve seen it working! I’m trying to upgrade from my GTX 660 but all’s I’m getting when I’ve put it in is a black screen like it’s picking it up but I’m just getting no image. (I’ve uninstalled old drivers). Only thing I can think is it...

Hi all, I was wondering if someone could help me with which gaming laptop to get. I am deciding between the gigabyte aero 15w, msi gs65 stealth or a Razer blade? Any help in which to get and why I should get it would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi everyone, I am new to forums and just wanted some advice really on buying a system as I have looked myself and don't really understand computers all that well and the meanings and which brand to go with as I know there are so many different options to choose from and I don't really know what...

Hey, So nearly 5 years ago I bought my PC with gaming in mind and it is definitely getting old now I'd say. It has an AMD fx6300, GTX 960 and a Asus M5A78L-M LX microATX mobo, all powered by a 500W PSU. These I still enjoy gaming, still at it with CSGO and other games like pubg and DayZ arma...

As a kid I used to read the British comic books Fantastic, Terrific, Smash, Pow and Wham, which effectively licensed the contents of Marvel Comics and sold it in the UK. That included Thor, Iron Man, the Avengers, the X-men, etc. But I grew out of it at about the age of 12 or 13 (maybe because...

I've been a dad for nearly 7 months now and before the little bundle of joy was born I was a pretty avid gamer. Every new console and game that came out I had it, spent quite a bit on a gaming PC too and most of my time was spent mixing work and relationships with gaming. Now that he is in the...
