    There's no way to get around it man, hold tight, Nvidia are dropping their new cards in a couple of days and i'm sure you really don't need 4K just yet anyway if your only playing League.

    What @tract9on is talking about is what I would do and the router he is talking about is DD-WRT and is only $140 for a good fairly long range router. Its not the best but its good. However some modems have bridging disabled (permanently) which I believe you have to enable to add a router to a modem.

    If you can't find the G9x then CM Storm Spawn is pretty similar but the Spawn also has a "flawless" optical sensor (requires firmware update though).

    If you are someone who plays a lot of games you will notice a difference between mouse pads. The design comes down to your personal preference, the materials will determine the friction etc.
    The material used for the surface and the coating on top will determine (to a degree) the precision and friction experienced when using your mouse.

    I did pay for private internet access, but Netflix wouldn't let me pay for their service using my Austrian credit card. Anyways, the problem is now solved because Netflix launched in Germany, Austria and Switzerland TODAY

    HTML only, nope. You'll need at least javascript as well. But if you want a very large selection of product, you'll also need a database and PHP. Potentially AJAX if you want it to be super user friendly

      A very useful thread but perhaps a bit ott for some novice users (who tend to be the ones posting for advice on their mice on here and haven't done the above research for themselves.) I have updated the FAQ with a link for more in-depth information - thanks!

    Not really, most modern computers have AUTO-MDIX and will detect that two you're connected to another computer, and if neither of the computers have a dhcp server running, Windows will assign themselves a random link local address (in the range of 169.254.0.0-169.254.255.254).

    1# I'd let the Buffalo do all the work, due to the Virgin router combo is doing all routing work.
     2# DHCP and QOS have nothing to do with each other so it doesn't matter if DHCP on or off. QOS will work if properly setup.

    100Mbps on ADSL(2+) Sounds like you will be on VDSL which that router doesn't support and would be pointless to get.

    tract9on got a reaction from leaveAcomment_J in Third Monitor stopped working   
    Hey,

    I've had an issue where my third monitor (Samsung TV), connected via HDMI has stopped being detected by my computer randomly. 
    I.e. it doesn't show in the list of monitors in nvidia control panel. It was fine yesterday although it is possible my computer did some updates when it last turned off.
    My two other monitors connected via DVI are fine.

    My graphics card is a GTX 770 & I'm running Windows 8.1 pro. 

    What I've tried:
    1) Different port in the TV
    2) Different HDMI cable
    3) Updated graphics drivers
    4) Performed a clean bootup
    5) Uninstalled and clean re-installed the graphics drivers.
    6) Rolled back my PC a few weeks

    Both cables do appear to spark a little when I go to plug it in to the TV. 



    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

    It's an old case now, but if you have a red themed build the aerocool rs-4 might be worth having a look at. Or you can spray paint the motherboard tray
