Currently have a kfa2 1080 galax blower card and it's at 80 Deg c under load, want to buy a heatsink for it and happened to be able to buy a 1080 ti Asus strix 3 fan cooler. Was questioning how the fit will be and whether it'll fit without complications

So ive had my previous keyboard for 18 months before 2 leds randomly lost 1/3 of their brightness in a specific colour, one being green and other being red. Now i received my replacement (k70 mk2) 4-6 weeks ago and now a near identical issue appeared. Does corsair warranty refresh if a product...

I have a rm750i bought back in 2016

Currently have an offer to get a 1080 to for £350, wondering whether to wait for next gen or stick with the deal. Card is used and without warranty and I'm using a 144hz 1440p display, generally playing games like pubg or scum. Currently have a 970 and wondering whether to wait for next gen or...

Monitor is an acer XB271HU

I have bought this monitor like this. The scratch is pretty deep and visible, and at the tip of it, around 3 pixels are stuck as white. Is this the polarizing film damaged? or preferably, is there any cheap and easy way to fix it, if at all, without replacing the panel? View...

Personally I'd attempt to browse the used market. There's a lot out there going for very cheap, example is a xb270hu for £200 in the UK, slightly older but still fantastic for a panel. I'm not entirely aware of used marketplaces but Facebook marketplace is probably the go to option, and asking...

This is quite dependant on your gpu. If you will be gaming, and you have at least a 1070 or 980 ti, you could go for a 144hz qhd panel. When it comes down to working on a large workspace, it definitely is a bit thing, and if media consumption and workspace is your main use then a 4k monitor may...

If you were to go for a higher refresh rate panel, the experience is undoubtedly much better, feels more responsive and smooth. If you're going to be using your 60hz monitor display for gaming after getting used to the monitor then you're going to feel a huge difference and might even struggle...

I have the xb270hu and the xb271hu for £220 and £270 respectively, both 2nd hand although kept in good condition, any advice as to which to choose?

I have virginmedia 50Mbps and I get ~30 through powerline but daily its speed is reduced to less than 1 Mbps (yes, megabit) around 9-11pm and stays like that for around an hour where it progressively recovers to normal. The distance the powerline travels is around 20 metres of cabling through...

I have tried many things to do with the switch. Im thinking that the switch is possibly messing up some setting on my router or restricting connections and my pc is connected directly to the router. The switch also works totally fine on other networks away from home and yes, it is an unmanaged...

I have a tp-link 8 port ethernet switch connected to my main home router and im having big problems whenever its on. It is self-configuring and there is no UI for the switch itself. Im actually experiencing large internet drop-outs very often (every 30s or so, lasting for 5s) and it is...
