    [SOLVED] Best build for RTX 2070 with room to upgrade?

    Thank you! One question - why doesn't the mounting bracket come WITH the cooler? Also do I need it if I get an 11th gen CPU? I'm trying to get everything from Amazon UK.

    [SOLVED] Best motherboard for i7-11700K CPU?

    I'm upgrading my whole computer and someone has made me a build but I just wanted a second opinion on the motherboard as I believe my current motherboard is the component that has caused the whole system to stop working... so I want to be sure I get a really good one this time. I also want it...

    [SOLVED] Are these parts compatible for a new build?

    Oh blimey, I just thought i9 would be newer than i7. I'm not entirely clued up about all this stuff. The bundle price is £839.99. I'm hoping to purchase all of the components from Amazon and hopefully in some form of bundle so they're already fixed together. Trying to put the CPU and Cooler...

    [SOLVED] DRAM light has come on and monitors don't detect anything since I reinstalled my RAM sticks

    I haven't moved the CPU at all since I installed it a few years ago. I literally just opened it up to remove and replace the RAM sticks as only 1 was registering and now neither apparently work... so I think you're right about it being the mobo. I may as well just upgrade everything at this...

    [SOLVED] Are these parts compatible for a new build?

    I'm having issues with my RAM/Motherboard (unsure which) on my current build so I've decided to bite the bullet and upgrade basically everything (was going to do it gradually but to hell with it). I will be using my current RTX 2070 and want to know if these parts from Amazon UK will all go...

    [SOLVED] DRAM light has come on and monitors don't detect anything since I reinstalled my RAM sticks

    I've tried both and both times the DRAM light was still on and nothing showed up on the monitor. I've been thinking about upgrading my RAM anyway but what if it's a problem with the motherboard?

    [SOLVED] What should I upgrade in my desktop to get it running smooth again?

    Apologies for posting in here again. I got it working smoothly to some degree so figured it was fixed and didn't come back on here to see this response. I finally noticed this myself and tried reinstalling them... but now the DRAM light is orange on my motherboard and neither of my monitors are...

    [SOLVED] DRAM light has come on and monitors don't detect anything since I reinstalled my RAM sticks

    I have been having issues with performance and realised only one of my RAM sticks was being detected. I took them both out, gave them a wipe (clean) and reinstalled them in the exact same positions. Turned my PC on and the monitors refuse to show anything. I've tried moving the RAM around to...

    [SOLVED] Can my build support a Graphics Card upgrade?

    I play Overwatch at max settings and get 60fps (my monitor is 60hz so its capped). I'll try heavier games and test this, thank you!

    [SOLVED] Can my build support a Graphics Card upgrade?

    1080p at 60Hz currently. I think it has FreeSync but I'm not sure. I'm looking to go to 1440p with 144hz... or either of those options (so 1080p 144hz, or 1440p 60hz). Again, I'm grateful for any advice.

    Thank you for the response!! Luckily I was looking to purchase in about 4-5 months so that works out perfect. I'll keep an eye out and thanks again for the advice :)
