    [SOLVED] Issues connecting to external game servers

    Hey all, My friend is having issues connecting to external game servers. He's not nearby to me so I can't hop over to give him a hand but by the sounds of it there's not much I can do... He explains it like this; When he tries to connect to blizzard services (overwatch) it says he's timed out...

    Possible to pull a custom image from a laptop to a USB drive?

    Hey, Is it possible to pull an image (Windows 10) with custom software and applications on it from a laptop straight onto a USB? I've done my research but I can't find anything, and we don't want to use a virtual environment. The method we have tried requires a full external hard drive, and we...

    i7-7700 + GTX 1080 - Surprisingly low FPS?

    Update: Run a diagnostic test. Passed with flying colours. Maybe in that areas my system is slightly deficient hardware wise, RAM maybe? I dunno, but i'm pretty happy with the results. Will test a game with it and post the details.

    1080 only running off one cable - Causing low FPS?

    Well, damn. Long story short, plugged this new cable and I'm pretty sure it killed my 600 watt PSU. Luckily a mate of mine still had his old 750 watt PSU so i'm now using that. Haven't really noticed much in the FPS department however... I'm starting to think of other reasons. I'm pretty set...

    1080 only running off one cable - Causing low FPS?

    One of my mates has told me he has a spare 6 pin male to 6 pin male cable for the CXM series of PSUs, i'll collect this after work to use if I can't find the one that came with my PSU. Chances are, the guy who built my old PC took this cable and kept it. I sorely hope this isn't the case, but...
