  1. Hi guys, Looking for some help diagnosing why my powerline adapters have become really slow. Whether it's connected or not I just upgraded my broadband from 60 to 240, and yet I am only getting 30Mbps max on a speed test using TP Link 500Mbps adapters. I would expect a speed in the region of 90Mbps (seeing as the only have 10/100 ports) taking interference into account. I'd also like to point out that I was getting 60Mbps using the adapters before my upgrade to the 240Mb broadband . Like wtf...
  2. As the title says! I have gone through many options and picked these two for their price and reviews but if you have a better option for the same price please say!
  3. Looking for a cheap speaker setup for using for hosting parties, so I don't have to drag my Logitech z506's around all the time. I've looked at portable Bluetooth options but was hoping for something better. Doesn't need to very portable, but I'm hoping for a better sound quality than I can get with a small Bluetooth. Budget can stretch a little as well.
  4. The PC will either start or not, with that config a larger PSU would be advised, but the 500w will be fine.
  5. The cooler can handle a medium overclock for sure, many people are overclocking with that combination
  6. Hey guys, 2 quick questions - Cool and Quiet is the setting that allows my CPU to downclock when idle yes? Can I re-enable that now I have a stable overclock? For reference : 4.5Ghz @ 1.39v using a h80i (55c max core temp)
  7. Not sure if you can replace they keyboard yourself with the Razer Blade ( doubt it) but I'd out up with that to have the best possible laptop for the price. As for delivery charges, I live in ireland and I get free delivery from the UK. Easy enough to check, go through the checkout and see if they add delivery charges. You could try Amazon Sweden otherwise
  8. Sell out that 965 and try to find a cheap 8350
  9. I hope so! Might actually match the i5s for performance for once!
  10. Specs say at least a Core 2 Quad, but your i5 isn't far below the recommended one. Amd wise they recommend the 8350 and I only have the 8320, so I'll be putting my h80i to work finally with a bit of overclocking
  11. Look guys, I think we can finally agree that both Intel and AMD are crap, and that he needs to get a PowerPC CPU. The benchmarks speak for themselves...
  12. You're being ridiculous if you want him to spend money on a GPU for the sake of one game And anyway this is @tmcclelland455 , he doesn't spend money
  13. The gap is actually twice what you make it out to be. Not sure why you use the stock cooler for the Intel and not the AMD Edit - And there are far cheaper motherboards by ASRock available for AM3+
  14. This sounds like fun, gonna give a few a go
  15. I can't say I have any experience with NZXT AIOs, but I have heard they are reliable. You'll have to research yourself on the ones that suit you best though, because I don't know their product line up. DO look at the h75 for the Phantom anyway, because it's a really nice slim rad that suits small form factor PCs. PS- Ask in the watercooling subforum if you don't get any more help here but try not to call AIOs watercooling too often, because the proper water coolers might get offended
  16. Should be fine, but look at pricing - might as well get the 1000w if it's not much more
  17. Hey, he's the one who said he wants AMD, not me. I would have Intel myself if I could. I'm just saying that the 8350 isn't as bad as people like to say
  18. Ok, the facts speak for themselves. But I don't see overclocking mentioned there - which is a major incentive to buy the 8350. I have mine up at 4.5Ghz from the stock 3.5
