    Hi All, I have been having a few issues recently with warranty, i sent off my card almost 2 months ago to the re seller, they then sent it off to Asus. Yesterday i get a call from the re seller about a partial refund, they offer me £224, i originally paid £450, unfortunately due to terms and conditions, i am unable to get a full refund, and no replacement as 9 series is now EOL. I am now needing to go on a GPU hunt, used or new, but at a reasonable price, i can probably go to £400 currently, have you got any suggestions on what i should do? Cheers, ShavedCloaca

    nope didn't work, Fired up a fire strike benchmark and saw that my GPU is only using half of the memory it has available.

    Hi, Recently i re-did my water-cooling for my pc, no changes in hardware or software, only change was the tubing and fittings so bares no relevance to this you might think. Before i did this, i was getting 144fps at 144hz on my 1440p ROG swift monitor, for most games, most played is overwatch, so i know my average fps. After doing this, i am now unable to get above 70fps on most games, temps are fine, GPU is running the same as it would normally. I am unbelievably confused at the moment, i have updated GPU drivers and fiddled with the clock speeds, but no change. any ideas here would be of much help. Many Thanks, ShavedCloaca

    Hi I just drained and and upgraded my loop then filled it up with de-ionized water, I remembered I had some part 2 of the blitz kit and I'm just wondering if I could just pour some into my res and run it for a few hours... Opinions?

    Hi, I have a custom water cooling loop in my system and when i first did it i think i was a bit too exited so i cut a few corners, like the Drive Bays. I have 3 HDD's and they are sitting in the removable cage kind of in the middle of my case/ basically i want to put my HDD's somewhere it 1. doesn't look awful and 2. doesn't interfere with my water cooling If anyone can help me find a solution to my cock up i would be eternally grateful. Thanks ShavedCloaca P.S. If you would like any photos I would be happy to post them.

    Its nice i like it, i think you could slip in an i7, you will still have a nice budget for a monitor. good choices there, very nice build for a first time.

    yeah i know, but i preferred to do it like this, sorry if this makes it harder.
  8. ShavedCloaca
    there is a link in the top of each txt doc, i did it like this so i could have the watercooling in one doc as well

    Hi dude, Personaly i think the ram is a bit overkill for your system there and i definitly think you could have a few pennies in this area if you are not wanting to spend as much. Kingston HyperX Fury Black 8GB https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00TY6A1P0/?tag=pcp0f-21 If you are wanting to have a good gaming experience i think you will need a little more for a monitor, they are one of the key parts of any battle station.

    Hi everyone, I have made up two lists for two quite similar builds, only difference is the chips, and obviously the motherboards, i plan on making this build with hard-line water-cooling with Pastel White coolant. This is going to be my most expensive build yet, and the first time i am going to do a hard-line build, so the fittings and quantity of tubing is not correct in these documents (one of the things i wanted an opinion on. There are two txt docs linked into this thread and if anyone wouldn't mind giving them a look over and giving me some more ideas for this build. Thanks, ShavedCloaca Dreams AMD.txt Dreams Intel.txt

    HI there so i recently purchased a PG278Q Monitor and the G-Sync isnt working i have a GTX 980 and there are no options coming up, i have contacted the ASUS support and apparently the GTX 980 isnt supported with G-Sync???? it is..... if anyone could lend a hand and try and help me get this fixed i would be a very happy Gamer. Thanks Shaved Cloaca

    okay so maybe it isnt a good idea, but i have an old AIO cooler for my old build, would you recommend using that and a GPU block adapter for my GPU, i have a Sapphire 280x toxic, do you think you could recommend an adapter for this GPU if so.

    it seems to work fine even though it says its clocked at 800MHz but whenever i use applications it still says its clocked at 800, i think its okay i might leave it for now and if i have any other problems i will go hardcore and try and fix it but until then...
  15. ShavedCloaca
    i tried setting it to its defaults but it hasnt changed...

    Hi guys I was just looking intently at my new PC after buying an corsair h100i GTX and thought to my self, "could i expand that?", i was going to go for a full water cooling loop but i chose the AIO instead, eventually i wanted have a GPU block and other awesome water cooling gear, but i wanted to know if there was a cheaper option, than having to buy a new kit, as you can tell i am quite reluctant to throw away a brand new AIO cooler. Thanks ShavedCloaca

  18. ShavedCloaca

    hi guys, i have resently built a new computer, with an intel i5-4690K and i have been using it for about a month now and everything is going smoothly appart from when i check the task maneger one day it said my max speed was 800 Mhz, so i thought that was a bit weird, so i looked it iup on google and people have been saying that it is an idle speed, so i thought i would run a CPU stress test to see it that would make a difference, it didnt.... , so i went in the bios and again it said it was clocked at 800 MHz, so i overclocked it to see if it would make a difference, it then restarted and said it was running at 4.5 GHz, this was good i thought i had fixed it, so i went onto windows and it again said i was using 801 Mhz, so a vast improvement as you can see.... is there a problem with windows or is a probklem with the CPU? if any one can help i would be very greatful. Thanks Shaved Cloaca

    Nice, i think that will definitely be an upgrade in the near future. thank you very much for your help
  22. ShavedCloaca
    Okay Thank you, i was just curious, now would any of you recommend a M.2 SSD for your OS?

    Hey guys, I am building a new computer for uni and i was looking at the more resent Mobos around and saw that most of them have a the new M.2 port in them for Faster Data Transfer ect, i was wondering if it would be worth it to get a M.2 to SATA card, will this speed up my computer or will it just stay the same due to SATA having a standard rate of data Transfer, just curious. Thanks ShavedCloaca

    Hey guys I was going to get a Windows surface pro for Uni for my networking course and wanted to know the compatibility for the type covers, i know they have broungt out quite a few versions of the type cover but i have no idea if you can use the Type cover 2 with the Windows Surface pro 3, there is nothing on google telling you about compatibility issues, i dont know if its me being to wary on cheaping out for a type cover then discovering it doesnt work with my device, i mean they are very expencive for a keyboard so i think you can understand why the caution. Any help would be great. Thanks ShavedCloaca
