  1. Corsair PSU owners, please read.

    Apparently Corsair replace PSUs that make whining noises such as this, but unfortunately I think I've probably voided my warranty because I had to cut open the cladding of the PCI power connecter to get it to fit between the end of my graphics card and the drive cages.
  2. Corsair PSU owners, please read.

    Hi there, I have a Corsair CX 430 PSU in my computer, and it works just fine as a power supply, but it's really noisy. And I'm not talking about fan noise, I'm talking about a high-pitched whining noise that sounds like it's probably coming from some of the capacitors charging/discharging inside...
  3. Is it a good idea to leave off a front intake fan?

    My case has a 120mm intake fan in the front but I don't think it's doing much good there, with only a thin grill out the side of the front panel and the drive cages in the way. So do you think I'd be better off removing that fan and attatching it to one of the 120mm mounting points on the...
  4. Your opinion needed..$200 new card

    Exactly, I don't do much on my desktop besides gaming and stuff that doesn't much use much memory such as web browsing and word processing. Hence, it's probably not worth me or others with similar computing requirements getting massive amounts of RAM even if it is cheap.
  5. Your opinion needed..$200 new card

    He said this isn't an upgrade, he's buying a whole new machine from Hewlett-Packard that has integrated graphics and from what I understood he's going to install performance card.
  6. Your opinion needed..$200 new card

    ^This. 4GB is just fine really, it works for me. But you won't be able to run a performance graphics card off of that OEM 300W PSU.
  7. Your opinion needed..$200 new card

    Really? I have 4GB of physical DDR3 and the machine never seems to use much more than 1.5GB, it doesn't bottleneck performance at all. But that in mind I rarely have much going on in the background when I'm playing games.
  8. Fans spinning faster after a while

    Problem, science?
  9. Fans spinning faster after a while

    that would definitely help.
  10. Norton 360 process name

    Ah yes, should've thought of that before really.
  11. Fans spinning faster after a while

    Wierd... stupid idea, but maybe it's to do with the fan blades gaining momentum over time.
  12. Your opinion needed..$200 new card

    Get a Radeon 6850 or 6870. They've got one of the best price/performance ratios out there, and I have a 6850 in my pc that gives a solid 60 FPS for just about anything I throw at it.
  13. Norton 360 process name

    Hey, does anyone know what the Norton 360 process is called? My subscription ran out and I replaced with avast! but Norton bombards me with renewal dialogues every 30 minutes it seems and it's jsut ridiculous. I can't find anything that sounds like Norton 360 in the processes tab of Task...
  14. Best video card for gaming and photo/video editing?

    I don't have any experience with that card, but if it is a great card then yeah you should definitely see about updating the drivers and such to see if you can run BF3 properly before you go running off to buy a $400 card for no good reason.
  15. Dell GeForce 560 Ti very hot

    Dell make video cards? I guess that's just an OEM thing.
  16. How important are motherboards for gaming?

    It doesn't make much difference, in my gaming rig I have high end CPU and graphics but a cheapo Asus motherboard and this doesn't seem to have had a detrimental affect on gaming performance. But there are reasons for getting an expensive mobo, for instance if you wanted to add eight memory...
  17. Any Phenom II Owners Here?

    I've got a Phenom II X6 1090T ~3.2GHz and it runs everything I've thrown at it so far very well indeed, and it was very cheap as well for a six core processor, about £105 I think. Only complaints I have is that it has quite a high power consumption (125W) when compared to similar Intel processors.
  18. Corsair CX430 or CX500?

    I have a machine with slightly more power hungry specs than this, and it works fine on a Corsair CX430... for now at least.
  19. Need a Budget PSU

    Don't get anything generic and ridiculously cheap. They sometimes explode and my friend did this with his first build and it literally caught fire. I recommend the Corsair builder series, I have a 430W one and it works fine except for some wierd squealing noises when the PC isn't powered on. You...
  20. Home server PSU advice

    Is this build meant to be a file server only? If so I think the Core 2 Duo is overkill. 550W is probably a bit excessive as well, I have run more powerful machines than this on a Corsair 430W. I would try and get something silent though, unless you are putting it in the basement or something.
  21. Signitures

    Ok, thanks for the info.
  22. Opinions on the Zalman Reserators?

    Hey guys, what do you think of the fanless liquid cooling kits that Zalman make, the reserators 1 and 2? I've read several reviews that say they have good cooling performance and obviously they benefit from being silent, but I have also heard that because the radiator is not actively cooled they...
  23. Signitures

    Hi, sorry for being such a noob but can anyone tell me; do you have to make a certain number of posts or have your account for a certain amount of time before you're allowed to have a signiture on this forum? I couldn't find anything about this in the forum guidelines.
  24. Sensor reading wtf moment

    My Chuck Norris mobo always reads -294.7 degrees celcius (about 21 degrees below zero kelvin). Those thermodiodes are notorious for being badly calibrated though.
  25. imac 27

    Yeah... well that's kinda what you'll have to deal with if you buy a Mac.
  26. Best thermal paste for an AMD processor

    I have heard good things about Arctic Silver's thermal pastes before, but I also heard that AMD specifically warn against its use with their processors and it will void the warranty. Sounds a bit uncompetitive of them, so I think it could be untrue though.
  27. Removing old thermal paste

    Hey guys, I hear the best way to clean off old thermal paste from a CPU is to get some isopropanol (rubbing alcohol, surgical spirit) on a lint-free microfibre dishcloth and then just rub off the old paste. But is this really a good idea? If you remember junior school physics, rubbing things...
  28. Best thermal paste for an AMD processor

    As the title might suggest, what is your favourite thermal paste (especially on an AMD CPU)?
  29. Recommend a WiFi adaptor card?

    Hey, can anyone recommend a good WiFi adaptor PCI card that has worked well for them? The Netgear dongle that came free with my router I am using with my new desktop is terrible, most of the time it cannot detect my network and since my laptop can get a "good" connection from the same desk I...
  30. Fanless case cooling

    Does anyone know if EFA (Electrostatic Fluid Accelarator) type computer case fans actually exist? I have heard that this is a real type of fan that works by ionizing air molecules between an anode and a cathode, using them to propel the surrounding neutral air and then neutralizing said...
  31. Using Windows ICS (Internet Connection Sharing)

    I have a few questions about using my laptop to provide an internet connection to a new desktop using ICS: 1) I already have a wireless router; this is how the laptop connects to the internet, so will this be a problem if I enable ICS on it's ethernet port and connect that to the desktop? 2)...
  32. A question about upgrading a mobo

    Hi guys, so if I replace a motherboard and then put the old processor back in, and use the same processor cooler, will I need to apply new thermal compound to the heatsink?
  33. New build doesn't switch on.

    Sorry guys, looks like Magnus just lost those 15 quatloos. The problem wasn't that it didn't boot, it was that it didn't even turn on. I found out that was because the power switch wires were connected to the wrong pins on the mobo (they were connected to the reset pins), which is wierd because...
  34. New build doesn't switch on.

    @Magnus Ok, tommorow I will try reconfiguring everything outside the box with minimal components, but won't powering the mobo up outside without any standoffs short it out? @stahlhart I will try to post a photo of the 24-pin connector thing, but connecting the PSU directly to the motherboard...
  35. New build doesn't switch on.

    Apologies in advance if I am going against site etiquette by posting a request for advice in the wrong place, but I've recently found myself in a most disturbing predicament which I shall now detail. I've just finished building my first PC, and for reasons currently unknown to me, it's not...
  36. XFX never again

    Nice to know when you're going to be unboxing and installing an XFX card in the next 24-hours.
