    i recently bought one and its great, more cables than i will ever need, and way more power than i need ATM
  2. papapoi
    one of the laptops had 8 five star reviews and i can attest to that since i have that one, its a great laptop but battery life is not 4 hours, though with the ssd maybe it could be. if it is a person he must have cash to burn to buy that much hardware in that period of time, that's the kind of guy you need as a best friend so you can get his hand-me-downs.

    http://pcpartpicker.com/p/mQzFBm something like this could work and allow for some light gaming onlow/med resolutions, you could lower the price by going with a cheaper a10 or even an a8, and a hdd instead of a ssd

    satellite providers http://avonlinebroadband.com/ https://www.satelliteinternet.co.uk/ another hopefully helpful link https://www.broadbandgenie.co.uk/broadband#b

    dont know how up to date this is but you could start looking at this page also for different providers and see if there offer a 4g broadband data only plan https://www.cable.co.uk/guides/who-is-the-best-4g-provider/
  6. papapoi
    eww , ok , there must be some other provider that can provide better speeds though, like even a 4g modem type that uses the cell towers
  7. papapoi
    have you called them to ask why you are paying for up to 17mb but getting less than 1? is it an antenna based system?
  8. papapoi
    unlimited broadband just means you can access unlimited data with no overage charge(as in gigabytes, terabytes, etc), its doesnt apply to the speed, though if you are getting that kind of speed i wouldnt call that "broadband"
  9. papapoi
    by looking at your speedtest results , your isp seems to be bt global services, do you have any bills from them? here is their site: http://www.globalservices.bt.com/uk/en/home

    how much bandwidth are you paying for?
  11. papapoi
    i have the gigabyte card and its been good for me, but the fans are kinda of annoying it revs up and slows down like every few minutes even if im just browsing the web and gpu never gets past 32 deg. there is supposed to be a bios update to fix that though, supposedly. so if you are looking for a quiet card this one isnt it.

    i prefer the one controller, to me it feel smoother, i got mine for $30 added a 9ft micro usb cable and use it wired

    i used to buy watches and gold before i got back into pc's. but now its regrettable choices, since i dont go out anywhere in hawaii where i can wear them.

    my spectre 50in 4k tv has auto white balance so it will change whites to off white to damn near grey, and it only happens while im browsing web pages, never while gaming or watching tv, just another reason why a pc monitor is better than an hdtv, though 4k porn is so much better on a 50 inch tv than a 23 in, monitor ,LOLZ

    it will fit in the case its 5.25 in, what you need to find out is if you have an open usb 3.0 connection on your motherboard most have only 1, but have multiple usb 2.0 altogether you will need a open usb 3.0 header, usb 2.0, sata express and a molex connector for power. if you still need help let me know what motherboard you have and i can check.

    try going to pcpartpicker and view completed builds, adjust some of the sliders to your price range, cpu, gpu and see what others have build for a general idea http://pcpartpicker.com/builds/#c=285&g=121,139,142,145&G=0&X=0,110500 it would be also easier if you use the pcpartpicker link so people can easily adjust the components and give their input

    unless you want to go though taking it apart which is probably a PITA, you need to remove everything to get to the keyboard, i would just use an external usb keyboard
  18. papapoi
    call your local pc repair shop offer him $5 for a cheap video card, they usually have a bunch lying around i'll trade you this for your 670 and i'll even pay postage , hahaha

    yea, just avoid these and you should be good, and i know that u probably know to change to legacy boot in the bios to install windows 7, but in case you didnt • KB971033 -x86-the x64 (Update for Windows Activation Technologies checking) • KB2952664 -x86-the x64 (System Update compatibility for migration to Windows 10) • KB2977759 -x86-the x64 (Diagnostics compatibility issues for upgrading to Windows 10) • KB3021917 -x86-the x64 (diagnostics and telemetry systems to upgrade to Windows 10) • KB3035583 -x86-the x64 (Update sets "Get Windows 10" application) • KB3068708 -x86-the x64 (Update to improve the quality of diagnostics and telemetry) • KB3075249 -x86-the x64 (Update adds a point telemetry consent.exe file) • KB3080149 -x86-the x64 (Update for CEIP program and diagnostic telemetry) • KB3081954 -x86-the x64 (Update to improve the working folders and telemetry) • KB3123862 -x86-the x64 (Opportunity to upgrade to Windows 10)

    unfortunately every laptop would be different, i have done it on a few laptops with no problems, try going to youtube and putting the laptop model and windows 7 and see if any vids come up. eventually though it will download the update and nag u to install windows 10.
  21. papapoi
    eventually someone will figure out a mod like they did with the wii, but the ps-vr is also dependent on the ps camera and controllers so it might be a wait. anythings possible
  22. papapoi
    this could just be a tv thing, since the tv will configure itself to the pc, if it happens again instead of rebooting, try and change the resolution then back again to original. your pc could have gone into standby mode also.
  23. papapoi
    you would be able to put one in , i have something similar in my old case though mine was for a 3.5(got a 5" adapter), but what u need to be concerned with is if your case has usb 3.0 and if your motherboard has more than one usb 3.0 header because the card reader will use it, unless you decide that you prefer the case ones http://www.enermax.com/home.php?fn=eng/product_a1_1_4&p=2&lv0=3&lv1=82&no=284#anchor check page two of the photos for all the connections here is how mine is setup
