  1. Look, like most I was a pure Mac hater. It's shit value for money, I get it, I personally use my own windows rig at home and love it. But, I love Mac OSX, all of my friends at school currently use them and I love the feel of them, just really great build, but shit spec:cost ratio. Thing is that battery life doesn't mean a whole lot to me as I'll only be using the laptop from 9am - 4pm five days a week, I tend to just switch files from device and work on everything on my main rig at home. And it'll go on charge every night. The most demanding thing the device will be doing is probably Premiere Pro, maybe some more demanding stuff as the years go by but nothing incredibly demanding, so performance isn't a massive thing either. It's just mainly that premium, easy sorta feel that OSX provides, so I'll be going with the Mac, thank you!
  2. Super urgent. Looking for a school laptop around the $1500 AUD range, would love for it to be a mac, good storage and 15", can definitely go a little bit over and it can be used. THANK YOU!
  3. THANK YOU! Went to Logitch website and they had a tutorial on how to do a hardware reset using a tiny little unlabelled button that you need a pin to press, absolute bullshit it's not in the manual.
  4. It's pretty much impossible as most alternatives that WOULD work better would either result in a guaranteed mega fire or (like ammonia) probably kill you while you sleep. And of course it has to be a liquid, so some potentials would simply have to be too cold to actually be in liquid form. The only alternative to water I know of that people use is some sort of man made cooling fluid that's often dyed and is mainly used for colour and it is a lot easier to clean with a custom loop, so you can go with that but I don't think it cools better.
  5. Hey LTT, My Logitch G933s are causing some major annoyances right now. On top of the now damaged mic that needs to be repositioned all the time to work, one of my ear cups is suddenly a tad quieter than the other, which as I'm sure we all know is probably the most annoying thing to ever exist. I don't know why this is, and I thought that just a simple balance change would fix it, but the issue is that there is simply NO balance button available, I go to the levels tab of the device properties as ALL google searched answers suggest and there simply isn't a button there. Also the enhancements tab isn't there either, so I'm really stumped on what to do here because my warranty just ran out. Thank you.
  6. Mainly chrome, cortana and spotify, but from what I can see the numbers don't add up, I might be wrong, but I just feel paranoid that my virus isn't completely off and is fucking my performance.
  7. And my system also still appears to be using 3.8gb/8hb of memory for some reason, could that be linked to the virus?
  8. Already downloaded both, what should I be looking for in the connections tab? It just appears empty with nothing in the box.
  9. Found file origin of plugin and uninstalled the program associated and all its components, restarted PC and plugin did not come up on startup list, should I be in the clear now?
  10. I've tried to remove it via control panel but it doesn't appear in my programs list, just my startup menu. Should Revo Uninstaller fix that?
  11. Genius! I found 'DelayPluginl' which from a quick google search is adware, don't know how I didnt see it earlier. Should it be easy to remove safely?
  12. Hey LTT, I've got this really weird adware/malware/whatever on my computer, symptoms include: Unresponsive applications Unresponsive buttons (power button, taskbar, etc.) Unresponsive keyboard in certain situations (when typing PIN to PC) Ads despite adblocker (not turned on for forum btw) Occasional static noise coming through headphones Performance Issues Putting PC to sleep Not sure what happened, I was on reddit, then i went to message a friend via skype and bam one of my keystrokes put my PC to sleep, turned it back on and couldn't input PIN or restart PC. Weird noises came through headphones and I could see some apps opening and closing in the background. Since then I have regained control of PC when the pin just randomly decided to work and uninstalled skype and some other things + disconnected ethernet before running virus checks. All came back with nothing but it appears that my virus is in my memory? 4gb being used when task manager only says around ~500mb or so. I've being courageous enough to plug ethernet back in and I'm attempting to locate an issue but most of the symptoms seemed to have backed off, still have ads, slowed performance and cant open steam. I know the malware is still there, do I need to completely reset my PC?
  13. Basically, put down headphones to do a chore, came back, and now the microphone only works when i put it in just the right position; similar to when some ear buds are damaged, aux cord damaged, etc. Tried restarting headphones/PC, redownloading drivers, looking through settings but it appears to be a physical issue. But that makes no sense as i had done absolutely nothing to damage them, any ideas?
  14. Managed to just simply find one of the older iTunes version installers (a super old one) in my downloads then update the version back up and its been working fine, thanks anyway!
  15. So I just bought a new 6s plus but in order to load my backup onto it I needed to update iTunes, before doing so it detected my phone no issues, but now it won't detect my 5s or 6s. I know there are already DOZENS of guides on how to solve this issue but all the possible solutions don't appear to work - I've tried: Restarting Phone Restarting PC Restarting iTunes Different cable Different USB port Different phone Waiting for the phone to be detected After attempting to reinstall itunes it now won't allow me to even install the program, what a fucking ruined afternoon. If anyone has had a similar issue some help would be greatly appreciated.
  16. Excuse me if I misinterpreted what you were trying to say here. I never recommend messing with memory speeds so if you can it would be ideal to just restore your initial speeds so it can detect all 18GB. If you really need to i suggest just using trial and error to see where how far you can go with speeds, but still it isn't ideal for the little gain you'll receive. When you say 'More than one stick' are you trying to say that you have different types of RAM in your build? If so, try using just one type of RAM.
  17. Yeah just tried that and it seemed to work guess I didn't really need to ask, thank you.
  18. Hey LTT, After working completely fine for almost 18 months, MSI afterburner has decided to take away my fan curve options on my r9 390 and in turn almost killed my entire PC. Everything is fine and I was running some stress tests earlier just swell but i still cannot find my fan curve tab and it is effecting temperatures. Where did it go? Thanks.
  19. Looking for video editing software for <$100 AUD for simple editing tasks that will be needed for my schooling (cutting, editing audio, etc.). Was using Movavi but ended up getting ass-fucked by their massive watermark on the trial version. Thank you.
  20. Not sure if anyone still even plays rocket league but I picked it up recently and have been loving it. Sold a few CS skins ($2) and I want to get one of the DLC cars but I'm kinda torn as to which one to buy? I'm level 15 so I've had an opportunity to try the free cars, are the DLC ones any better?
  21. https://www.becextech.com.au/catalog/iphone5ssil-16gbnrc-p-4089.html?gclid=CjwKEAjwoPG8BRCSi5uu6d6N5WcSJABHzD8FO9VtC_TMxaGRf_GEedfKo5ZHvP3mguYK6CjPaAIrcRoCCIPw_wcB#.V52Onbh96iM I was considering this but with the iPhone 7 not being too far away I'm worried about the phone becoming outdated. I'll probably have to have the phone for over a year before upgrading. So is a 5s new enough?
  22. Need an unlocked phone around $400 AUD which will be used for really simple things like making calls (obviously), social media, taking pictures and Pokemon Go. I'd prefer iOS but I understand the price range kind of pushes any Apple product out of the picture. Happy to get something refurbished if it means I can get a better phone for less.
  23. Soooo, this? I do still need to purchase headphones and OS (which won't be that much) so this would work. http://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/VfqyXH
  24. @itsMilan @wrathoftheturkey @stconquest @Atmos @DrM Thank you all for your replies, one thing I forgot to add is that somewhat large storage capacity is required as my parents have a lot of photos/videos. They've also decided to not upgrade their monitor so a VGA port will need to be used, no biggie. Updated part list - Thoughts? http://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/X6GRJV
