    Xbox one not working with ethernet switch??

    UPDATE: Solved Turned out there must have been a conflict of IP addresses - I went into the switch settings and enabled DHCP so the router allocated the switch an IP address (i think i understood that right!) anyway its all working now, hopefully it lasts!

    Xbox one not working with ethernet switch??

    I'll have a go later today and see if i can work out how to assign a IP address to the Xbox via the router. Do i just need to get the MAC address of the xbox then make up a IP 192.168.0.xx vai the router setting, then put the IP i made up into the Xbox network setting? fingers crossed that's all...

    Razer Synapse 2 light settings not changing anything

    I have the same problem with my Naga Hex v2, the lights work on cycle but as soon as synapses 3 loads they go out, although it did work at one point! The software picks up the mouse and i can do macros and that but other than that its just black....it also sucks that synapses 3 doesn't support...

When i start the computer the mouse lights up and goes through the colour cycle, then as soon as windows starts synapses the lights go out. I've looked...

    GPU upgrade time from r9 290 tri-x??

    If i look at the 1070s do i want to stick with the ASUS, MSI, EVGA brands over gigabyte, PNY, Zotac etc..........I'm guessing the only difference really is the cooling and and OC with the latter brands not being as good?

    GPU upgrade time from r9 290 tri-x??

    Sure, I'm looking for something future proof for the next few years but I was reading that the r9 290 tri-x is basically on par with the 1060s and only about 10% difference, so hardly worth the upgrade. So i thought that the 1070 would be my minimum jump for any significant price to performance...

    GPU upgrade time from r9 290 tri-x??

    So I've finally upgraded everything apart from the GPU as i cant decide what the best move is for me!? I'm currently running a R9 290 tri-x, i want to keep up to speed with ultra to very high settings in the latest and upcoming games. For example I've had to lock Assassins Creed Odyssey at 30fps...

    Upgrading to AM4(Ryzen)

    I don't believe there is much OC room with the Ryzen chips, the 2600x give you out the box good speeds without the need to OC. if you opt for the 2600 i think you can push it a little less than the X at stock but you will need a much better cooler than the stock ones if you OC either. I went for...
