  1. thanks all!
  2. Hi all Im currently running on a 19.5" monitor, Aspect Ratio 16:9, Native Res. 1600x900, Cont. Ratio 1000:1 (Edge10 ES195c, yeh, pretty basic) If I was to buy a BenQ GW2270H 21.5" Monitor (1920x1080 Native Res. , Aspect Ratio 16:9, Cont. Ratio 3000:1), would they work together or would the max. Res. be messed up? Thanks
  3. Thanks for all the relpys. Slight change of question. If I was to change the motherboard before migrating to an SSD, would there be any worry of Windows 'thinking' its a new PC and ask for the Product key (I lost the OS CD case ages ago and can't remember the key)? Also, does anyone know a free way to find the product key through the PC itself, like in CMD or something? Thanks
  4. Hi All, Just wondering for future upgrades... If i cloned Windows OS off my current HDD to a new SSD, would i be able to put that SSD in a new PC as a new system but with WIndows OS? OLD HDD -> Clone Windows to NEW SSD -> Put NEW SSD in NEW PC to use as boot/OS drive Thanks
  5. what is a good cheap, but 'good' matx case that's a slimline/flat case which can -hold a full size ATX PS2 PSU (doesn't include PSU) -hold a full size GPU -have 4 exp. slots any suggestions? thanks in advance (P.S: Something like this)
  6. Why when i download Origins update will it not stay downloaded? I download the update from the client, but each time i load origins, it re-downloads the update again. Why?
  7. @Comessy thanks!
  8. Could someone recommend a cheap 600w (Modular or semi-modular) PSU from a respected brand such as corsiar or EVGA... Thanks
  9. Check out the Bitfenix Aegis. It will be in this price range. Radiator Top 360mm, 280mm, 240mm, 140mm, 120mm Radiator Front 360mm, 280mm, 240mm, 140mm, 120mm Radiator Bottom 140mm, 120mm Radiator Rear 120mm It has plenty as you can see. It comes in 5 colours: Black, White, Blue, Red and Yellow. It also has a custom front badge, called the ICON Display, which you can customize in a program that you download on there website. ICON Display plugs into any spare USB 2.0 Header on your Motherboard. Price is £68-£80.
  10. Can anyone recommend a good 650w modular psu for under £80/$118 USD? I have be recommend to buy the Superflower Leadex GOLD 650w, but i was wondering if there is anything else that is good thats cheaper... Whats the best 650w EVGA PSU under that price limit? Thanks
  11. Hi all, kinda would be nice if you could reply today. I've got a good offer on an EVGA Supernova 650W G1 PSU. IS it any good? Or should i go with my original idea of a Superflower Leadex Gold 650w? Thank!!
  12. ASUS M5A78L-M LX AM3+ AMD 760G/780L uATX (mATX) AMD Motherboard Will this mobo fir in the Bitfenix Phenom M case?
  13. I have this but in the USB 2 version. Problem is i need one PCie 16 for a DUAL PCi slot graphics card (Gigabyte Geforce GTX 660) and then one PCIe (not covered) for an expansion card and one PCI slot for a network card. problem with this board is that the PCIe 1x slot is covered by my twin-slot GPU...
  14. Im planing on buying a Bitfenix Phenom mATX Case, but I a) need to know if uATX motherboards will fit in this case and b ) need to find a decent AM3+ mATX (or uATX if possible (above)) motherboard with (possibly) 2x PCI-E 16x 3.0 slots under £60... Can anyone give any info on these??? Thanks!!
  15. Will the SuperFlower fit in a mATX case? My case is 18cm wide
