Hey lads my mate is getting a laptop for 750-850 pounds. Ideally we are looking for 15.6", Gtx 1050, 1th hdd and a cheeky SSD. Basically the specs shown in the picture. Just thought I'd make a quick post before we just bought the first thing on amazon.

Alright seems like the consensus is this one, I'll check it out. Thanks very much lads

Right, so besides from the few services I do pay for I tend to torrent everything else. However, just recently I torrented a movie and got an email from SKY notifying me about it, in what seemed to be an educational email but seemed like a subtle warning for the future referencing the ‘Get it Right from a Genuine Site’ initiative. So yeah I'm aware millions of people torrent but I don't want to screw over the person who owns this broadband so what is the solution, I have thought of a few. I heard something about using a VPN or Proxy of some sort can help is this true? If so can you link any free good ones? Wording in the email such as "shared and uploaded" maybe leads me to think it's because I was seeding the movie perhaps is what triggered this? Any help is appreciated Thanks

I'm looking for a new phone and I'm heavily considering the oneplus three at its incredible £310 price point. However before I buy is there are relevant contenders? For example I know Linus says the Axon 7 is good but it's not out yet in the UK. So does anything else rival it? I'd be willing to spend a bit more maybe up to £400.

Although I have a 970, one of these new cards would be perfect for a gaming PC I'm building for my brother.

Title says it all.

Subed to PCper, didn't find anything on evcblog

Lol that would be so funny. But unfortunately no, I'm not really into Linux

Seems good thanks

I give up. I hate windows 10. I hate rocket league. I hate everything

i think I've done something very stupid. I right clicked on my gpu to uninstall the driver and delete driver software, because I heard that could be a problem... But now it won't even install the new driver saying the driver could not find compatible graphics hardware........ what now?

I am so done. I just don't even. I think windows 10 hates me. Surely when I found that 1 faulty file that would fix it but nope. But wait there is another solution. When I first installed windows 10 I left it to do its thing while I did other stuff. When I came back and I noticed that geoforce experience said the drivers were updated with me actually updating to windows 10 I assumed it did it automatically. However in the display drivers folder I did not see the windows 10 one so I assumed it was a glitch. Anyways I downloaded the driver from nvidia's website and installed and restarted. I was very happy surely this had to be the problem... NOPE. still nothing. Why is this happening. I should of never upgraded > I've been at this for hours, reinstalled game, reinstalled driver, check game files, ran steam in administrator mode and ran rocket league in the compatibility mode you were on about. This is so frustrating

I'm current reinstalling I'll see what happens then

"Perfectly fine". Well not for me

It said one file was faulty and fixed it but still it is not working

Of course, I probably should of mentioned that though...

I knew it. I was hesitant to upgrade to windows 10 for this exactly bloody reason . I am really into playing rocket league but ever since I upgraded to windows 10 it just gives me a black screen when I launch it. Some people suggested running steam as an administrator but that didn't work either. No I don't want to wait for a patch because I am addicted to this game. Is the only option reverting back to windows 7.... Why did this have to happen. Also, If I un-install the game from steam and reinstall will all my save data be kept because I guess I could try that? I don't know if this helps but when I hover over the rocket league window it says TA game 32 bit directX 9. Not sure why it is running in directX 9, maybe it's because it's not very intensive? IDK Please help

70-80 quid really? I checked on ebay for just normal 7950s http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&LH_ItemCondition=3000&LH_BIN=1&_nkw=7950&LH_PrefLoc=1&_sop=2 They go from 90 quid to 130 quid as shown by the link, and mine is a boost edition so I think maybe 100 would be better.

Ok but to play that game would I need to uninstall nvidia drivers and install amd ones and then do the reverse when I put my 970 back in. Or it is ok to have the nvidia driver and the amd one installed at the same time

Unsafe? It's MSI website

Ok so I have a msi gtx 970, which I upgraded from my Msi r7950 boost edition. I just realised that older gpu has been sitting around in its retail box with its retail accessories doing nothing and I want to sell it. ] Here is the link the GPU btw But I have two main concerns. First of all, since I haven't used it in a while I want to check if it is still working well. Does that mean I have to uninstall all my nvidia drivers and stuff and reinstall the AMD ones cause that sounds like a pain. Also, I don't know what price to sell it at. I saw a new one of these that sells for about £250, although that makes no sense cause a new 970 goes for just a little bit over that. So how much should I sell this used for. I live in the uk so either give me UK pricing or alternatively you can say sell it as much as the (what ever gpu would be around the same performance). Thanks very much!

Well... Just seen this now and went through all 12 pages. I am speechless. This is amazing. I feel pride when I look at my pc and as you can see by the specs... it's aint too good. I can't imagine what you feel when you look at your pc. It's simply amazing. You are really talented and gifted and should do things like this professionally. I really wish you would have kind of like vloged the whole thing and put it on youtube but hey it was still awesome. Great work man, keep it up!

I have run out of main oulets and I need to plug my computer into one of those power strips (Here is a pic) I'm not very educated about electricity but I'm not sure if those outlets provide the same amount of power a main outlet in the wall does. Anyway I was just wondering if it is safe to use it with my computer which has a 550W power supply. Computers draw a lot more power than regular devices which is why I am concerned.
