Recently I've been trying out Premiere Pro, but have been running into some storage issues when importing footage. Every time something is imported into Premiere, it creates PEK and CFA files. The PEK files are fine being only megabytes in size normally, but the CFA files are HUGE, usually being...

I dusted off my old lowest spec 2012 MacBook Pro with 4gb of ram and intend to use it as a light machine for basic tasks such as web browsing and writing text documents. It has never been cleaned and so has many unused applications slowing it down. What I'm unsure about is, would it be best for...

So recently I noticed there was no 'boost microphone volume' (or whatever it's called) in my windows recording devices when clicking on properties my microphone. I thought this to be unusual so I decided to reinstall all of my Realtek drivers to try and fix the problem. After trying out every...

So I've had my 6700k for a while now and haven't overclocked properly yet as I want to get a better cooler first, and I figured the default 4ghz base and 4.2ghz turbo would be enough. Now I don't know that much about Intel turbo boost and I always figured mine was working fine as it said just...

So I'm trying to decide which graphics card to buy for my new gaming PC. I'm only going to be gaming at 1080p as I have come from an old laptop in which I have only ever been able to reach 720p at best. So, I am considering the RX 480 and the GTX 1060. The RX 480 seems like a better deal as it...

So I am looking to buy a second monitor. I currently have a 144HZ monitor as my main gaming monitor and I was planning to pick up a second cheap 60hz monitor. However, my school uses old 75hz monitors and it makes it so much more enjoyable having that extra 15hz for desktop use. I was wondering...

So I am choosing a gaming monitor and was originally going to go with a asus VG248QE but I don't need that 144hz because me computer will not run at that high fps. So I am looking for a 1080p 60hz, preferably IPS monitor on a budget. Any suggestions?

I have been waiting for the release of the gtx 950 to build my new PC but I am unsure whether it is good or not. By good I mean good price to performance and is best in it's class. I know this card hasn't been out long but I want to get right on and choose a graphics card. Also I am in the UK so...

So recently I have been looking into gaming laptops as a way of me to be able to game on the go. I soon realised that to get a good lapop that can play the games I want I would have to spend quite a lot, so I dug out my mid 2012 macbook pro and was wondering if I could upgrade it to play games...
