    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Which GT 740M do PCS use?

    Messing about the other day looking at a GT 740M spec for someone, noticed that there are actually two versions available, a GK107 and GK208. The former being quite a bit better. Can PCS confirm which one they stock? Cheers.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Elder Scrolls - Skyrim....Mods

    Decided I needed a game to get my teeth into and I've had Skyrim installed for a while now but never really got going with it. The problem I had is that I had it on my 360 and put well over 25hrs into it and got quite far, so the thought of re-doing all those quests put me off. Last night I...

    It may be something really obvious that I'm missing, but why is this board not listed in the config as a Crossfire board? ASUS have it as one. http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A97_R20/#specifications I initially thought it may be because the second pci 2.0 only runs at x4 but you have the...

    I'm having some very annoying and sadly consistent woes with this wireless card. As it stands I certainly can't recommend it. It seems no matter what driver, settings or router I use, I experience drop outs. This basically involves getting the yellow symbol with exclamation over the wireless...
