Good Morning All, Well for the second time in a month I come home and my PC has hardware issues :( It's had a good run since I ordered in 2011 now (Spec in sig) My first issue was the Coolit AIO waterblock stopped working so I ordered a replacement H55 after a quick phone call to PCs and sorted...

Hello Everyone, I do not normally do posts like this, so apologies and feel free too let me know if this hits a Grey area/Violation of the forums rules. I have decided this year to take part in Macmillan's Game Changer fundraising. In short, this is a gaming marathon. I shall be playing games...

Hi ho, Right, one of my drives turned up DOA, the issue is I have 3 the same. The easy solution I came up with was to use PC Wizard to look at the serial numbers of the ones that are detected and working so when I open the machine I can find the broken one. The issue is I downloaded PC Wizard...

Indirectly I have made four purchases now with PCS, my original order in 2011 with my current machine which has been running without a issue since purchase. The only things I have added to the system was change out the GTX580 to a 970, and added a new SSD and moved the old one to a dedicated...

I guess this is the best place to put it :) I am looking for a new gaming keybaord, I prefer mechanical as I like the feel of actually knowing I have pressed the key. On the other hand I could do with the keys being quieter. I don't tend to use macro keys very often on any of the keyboards I...

Right, It's time for another machine, I have been debating for months on either a NAS or a Mini PC, but as I want to offload the transcoding my current machine does a Mini PC is better. A NAS simply wont transcode as many streams as I would like without mega bucks. I have posted my spec below...

Right all, I have an odd one here, I think I know what it is but unsure. The last few days I have heard a noise coming from the PC, now thinking it just needed a clean I pulled the desk out a bit got down and gave the PC a good blow with some air duster. Took the side off, aired out the inside...

I have done this on a number of forums and always goes down well. So..... Very simply put: Just write down whatever your doing or whatever you have done/accomplished today in-game's or in real life. Can be anything from training to amount of skill gain to items you have found betas you have...

Right, I am stuck. I have read I think Keynes and I think Spyder mention they have setup PS3 controllers on the PC so maybe can solve this. Firstly, I have Wired PS3 working no issues, I installed Motionjoy, installed the drivers, got BetterDS3 and set that up. Now, After reading around the...

From the creators of World of Tanks and World of Warplanes comes World of Warships. My friend started playing it and suggested I try it, everything is obtainable for free although as usual paying for premium speeds things up, you do get some free premium time when you level a bit but I bought a...

This is best place I can think of to put it, Not related tot he PC but thought someone might have a idea to help! I am having an issue with Nero Video 2015, as soon as I add the files and move onto the menu creation I get "Nero has stopped working". Thus far I have tried the following with no...

Well, Virgin have emailed me and told me they are increasing my credit limit, so what better way to celebrate than to buy a new GPU! :) Now, I have one dumb question, as my PC is now pushing 4years old the GPU is really the only thing falling behind at the moment. But my Motherboard only has...

Hi all, Thought I would come for some clarification, especially for those who have multiple GPU's. I have a few old games that wont run on my machine specifically due to the newer Nvidia cards not have TnL etc.. I have tried 3D Analyzer and I have tried virtual boxes with my old install of XP...

Odd thing, The configurator still allows you to buy GTX 7** series card and lder ATI cards. But f I go to my account page and click on the upgrade, the only options in the upgrade graphics card are R9's and GTX 9** series card. Any reason for this? I was looking for a modest upgrade, not a 9**...

Right odd issue. I decided even though I prefer the first to play a bit of SupCom 2 today. As with the first SupCom I load it up and enable dual monitors and reload the game. SupCom runs fine even for it's age, SupCom 2 however has screen flicker on the primary monitor. The settings I have are...

This may be a bit nit picky but it is something that most of us say when people are asking for advice on builds. My suggestion would be to remove the standard sata drives from the configurator altogether and just default to caviar black drives. It seems that the less knowledgeable people will...

I guess this is the best section for this, although I was tempted to put it in General Discussion. Anyway.. Does anyone run Home media server software and if so what one and opinions? I did have Tversity Pro but it has started being hit and miss with being picked up and transcoding. My current...

Spotted this today browsing around raptr, I head about it but didn't realise the open beta started a couple days ago. Long story short it is League of Legends with a DC Universe feel. Looking at one of the videos there is no support class as such, just power and damage so I am guessing...

I know this has been mentioned a few times and the answer is usually no, but I thought it might be a good idea to have a specific thread for sale of components. More specifically a PCS components resale thread. The reason I am re-suggesting it again is because I am looking to upgrade my gfx...

Hello everyone, Well I done the deed for the second time since I got my machine and decided to give it a good clean. Done the usual and powered down and unplugged everything, drained power from system and opened the case. Using my nice new can of air I got to work cleaning the system up, and...
