For clarification, an 'extension socket' is an extension cord. It's just a term that we use here, locally. Not sure what the power rating for the cord is, but it is from IKEA, if that helps. Currently the cord has my monitor, PC and my laptop adapter charging my laptop attached to it. But to...

Previously at my house with my room light issue I tested my PC by plugging directly into the wall, and once I turned on the lights it restarted. Currently I'm at a different place in a different state. My PC did not restart itself when I turned on the lights in this house but it did just happen...

I suspect it might be my highly sensitive PSU, but i might be wrong. As the title says, my PC restarts when I change certain things. For example: 1. Back in my old room, every time I turn on the lights, my PC would restart. I suspected the problem was with my room light, so I went to an...

So i just got a cheap lavalier mic for gaming, but the sound from the mic is very low. I tried boosting it in Windows but all i got is a bunch of noise. Is there a cheap sort of mic amp that i can use to boost the loudness of my mic? FYI i just ordered an smsl m3 amp/dac for my headphones, but...

As per the title, I'm wondering if this is recommended? I have two Enermax 120mm fans from and old CPU Cooler that I'm re-purposing into case fans. Problem is my mobo has limited fan headers and I am planning on running both on a single header. Now the fans run at 0.6A (as it says on the...

Okay. So after owning my rig for 2+ years I've realized that I do not have XMP enabled. This is the model of my RAM,:- http://www.gskill.com/en/product/f3-12800cl9d-8gbxm and this is my motherboard:- http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4325#ov Now I fiddled around in the...

Hello again. So the final decision on how I'll spend the remainder of my budget. New SSD (KIngston v300 120GB) New CPU cooler (Noctua NH-U14S, really don't want to risk another faulty pump on a liquid CPU cooler) Some case fans (Noctua NF-S12A) As for my current PSU and mobo, I've decided...

The inputs have been great guys. I really want to say that I'll be staying put with my current config and just spend the remainder of my money on things like an SSD or additional RAM, but I am really scared the current state of my components (especially my mobo and CPU cooler) will affect the...

Hello. So it has been two years and my rig is due for an update. I have purchased a gtx 980 and i was wondering if my 2-year old components will severely bottleneck the performance of my GPU. These are my specs:- Intel Core i7-3770K ENERMAX ELC120-TA / Dual-Fan Water Cooling G.SKILL [...

After several tests, I have come to the conclusion that my player is whack. Time for an upgrade! Thank you for the thoughtful answers guys.

Also my car's media player is a Sony MCX-730UB, If it's any help.

So I don't know how this will help, but: I noticed that the player is playing the music fast. This is from the fact that the seconds displayed on the screen ticking away rapidly. There may be a correlation from the speed of the music to its pitch. I think it's inducing a "chipmunk-rewind"...
