    UPS with UK wall outlets

    I’ve been looking for a UPS with UK 3-pin plugs for use with 2 desktops and a Mac Mini. I’m happy with it only being able to power the Mac Mini (85W) + one of my desktops (685W). Our power is very unstable and cuts out all the time. Each power cut lasts 10 seconds at max but it shuts all my...

    Okay thank you both of you! The link to it didn’t work when I followed it yesterday to the post as it said it cannot find what you’re looking for or something like that. Thanks for clearing that up! :)

    I made a post asking about apps that could possibly do different functions and it wasn’t read. I checked my followed threads today and it has been deleted without my permission at all. Please can this be undone and can I be told if this is going to happen for whatever reason next time?

    Have to restart several times to turn computer on

    Hi elongoria, I have had this exact same issue with my Xeon rendering pc and it is a simple fix for mine. I went into the BIOS and disabled “IDE” for the SATA type, so that it would boot into AHCI instead. This fixed the issue almost immediately for me so you might want to make sure to check...

    Repair or Upgrade?

    180W isn’t much but should be okay for a system like this. As for the make and model, it could be a cheaper and less reliable model as it isn’t from anybody well known such as Corsair or BeQuiet. This may have shorted or sent too little/too much power across your system. I recommend what the...

    Pc lag and loud fan

    That’s not a bad case for airflow to be honest. I also recommend just opening it up and removing as much dust as you can. Even if it’s not near the CPU cooler, a large lump can drift upwards and block airflow pretty easily. That’s a very taxing game and would bring improperly cooled components...

    Advice on WQHD gaming monitor?

    Hi pmcg521, that’s a very good resolution and refresh rate for that graphics card! As for getting that monitor cheaply it will be difficult. It all comes down to whether you want an RGB monitor with low response time and great colour accuracy with NVIDIA G-SYNC or if you just want 1440p@144 and...

    Repair or Upgrade?

    Hi ZNo0B, please can you find the power supply’s wattage on the side of the power supply? Also can you tell me what the make and model is? I have looked online and it is hidden so I cannot find it’s wattage. It may be too low for your system or a cheap model.

    Pc lag and loud fan

    Hi baichijialoveu96! I’ve calculated the power consumption of your PC and it is around 300-350 watts. This is fine for your power supply. Your graphics card is quite a fast card for gaming and will not cause stuttering I don’t think. Your cpu is a tiny bit slow for gaming but still should do...
