Been looking at some guides and they are very basic. Pretty much all say squirt some air in there and that's it. Tbh that ain't going to cut it in my case lol gave it an air blast about a year/2 after I got it and that was it. I'm thinking I would have to take it apart to get the best clean...

In the coming months I will be buying a new pc for gaming purposes with a decent gpu (hopefully gtx 800 series) the latest (not most expensive) CPU. I am by know means a 24/7 gamer but I do want something as close to high end as I can afford. I would be playing MMORPGs really. Not into much else...

as title really. what do you think is my problem? my spec is in my signature. reading up on it and people are saying its my cpu... i thought my cpu would kick ass on such a game lol. while playing the game (not real time observations but afterwards i went a checked) my gpu goes to about...

so been reading the forums and some have said they have seen their GPUs being pushed by some games. they have said "it wants more than the 2GB ram it has". so i was thinking with the rise of 4K wouldnt we need 4x the VRAM not 2x? 4K is 4 fullHD monitors in one after all. or are the GPUs around...

what do we want from a monitor? 1ms - the bigger the number the better or the smaller the better? im thinking the smaller 10000000;1 wtf is all that about? i have no idea with this one lol. light bleed? what is this and how do we see it or notice it? seen a few mentions of certain monitor...

i see that this case is suggested to not have a cd drive. how would this work? never used a pc without a cd drive. can you buy a usb cd drive? if so would you be able to completely reinstall windows with a usb cd drive? can you use a usb stick to install windows or reinstall windows? i am...

dacays maybe be the wrong word but i couldn think of anything else to ay lol i have been noticing over the past week my wifi card has been displaying an orange button instead of a green button in the taskbar (bottom right corner of the screen next to the clock). i am guessing this is not a good...

I have seen many people mention that when you buy a card that comes with ingame money it's like getting that amount off the card. Not sure if I've seen it in these forums though. I had to contact amazon to get my code as it was not inside the box. They gave me it in an email. Never got a...

I have just installed a new gpu. I asked for plenty of help in tech support lol. https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?35446-Installing-my-gtx-770-How-do-I-do-it I am just curious why does a gpu need a 6 and a 6+2 pin connected at the same time? I got a wire with it that allows a...

Well I just bought my got my gtx770. How do I install it? The thing only came with a guide for software install. I have read something. That confused me so I am posting here for the advice now. I have removed my 7850. Uninstalled the drivers. Using i7 gpu atm. What cables do I have to plug...

Whilst playing a game my screen just went black I had to reset my pc to be able to do anything. Everything looked ok after reset until it got to the login screen. It had many colour blurry lines across the screen with say 2" gaps between them. The lines themselves where about 2-5mil wide. I...
