  1. thanks I might go for either the sapphire nitro 380 / nitro 380x for £160 / £190. thank you for your help that's why I like this site you speak to nice people that help you out in the best way they can so thanks. james
  2. I have just swapped my monitor from my mac mini and it is still screen tearing so I have just tried my hdmi port on my graphics card and there is nothing its saying no input on my monitor so I think its safe to say my graphics card is on the way out. thank you for your help. I really appreciate it. any recommendations I can only spend about £200 on a gpu and would prefer to stay with amd / sapphire.
  3. I have just checked on my pc and while I was using it my screen went black and it didn't respond after it went black I was just about to restart it it came back and now I have screen tearing so I think it could be my graphics card that's packing in. don't know what to do weather to change it now or wait till it goes completely.
  4. Thanks for the reply I have checked all my cables last night everything seems ok, its a new power supply so I don't think its any of the cables from that. all my sata cables are new within the last 6 months. I am worried its either my graphics card or my processor.
  5. I have a amd fx 8320 with a sapphire r7 260x with a 240gb ssd. while I am using the computer if I knock my desk or catch the side of my pc with my foot it freezes on screen no response from either mouse or keyboard, the only way I can fix it is by restarting the whole system it happens quite a lot and don't know what it could be. any help would be appreciated. thanks james.

  8. Hi A few months ago I bought a custom built PC which had windows 8.1 pro installed on it. as windows 10 is coming shortly I got a message on my pc saying to input Product key to receive a full free copy of windows 10. I have tried a few things to recover the product key but I have been unsuccessful I would like to have a full version of windows 10 but if I cant find my product key I will have to buy a version of windows 8.1 pro. which I wouldn't like to do. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks james

  13. Hi I am New to the forum and I am having a little trouble with my setup, I have a amd fx 8320 base 3.5Ghz Underclocked to 3.25Ghz to try and reduce heat I am Currently running stock cooler and I am wanting to upgrade to water cooling but I am not wanting to spend too much on a water cooler, I am wanting to run this system as a basic gaming computer nothing to high quality but I don't know if it is worth spending money on a cheap water cooler now and upgrading later or to buy a cheap air cooler and change to water later on when I have some money to play around with for my system. any help would be greatly appreciated.
