I recently purchased a pair of 250 ohm headphones, I currently have a reasonably old sound blaster z sound card, whilst this is working fine with my headphones I was thinking about buying a desktop amp just for convenience as well as the fact I am looking to build myself a new pc in the coming...

Cheers for the help, tbf it makes life a lot easier if I just saying "build a new pc" instead of messing around :P

Would this mean buying windows 10 again?

I am looking to upgrade my current i5-4690k with an i7-9700k, this would require a new motherboard as LGA1151 is required, as I would be getting a new motherboard I would also buy DDR4 RAM as my current RAM is DDR3 and woul more than likely not work with the new motherboard, my question is would...

Sorry I forgot to list the CPU, its an i5 4690k, I've tried it without my soundcard, I'm thinking its just my power supply is broken. I'll try igpu and without any hard drives

A while back my computer suddenly made a whining noise and turned itself off, now it wont turn back on, occasionally when I press the on button all the LED's will flash for a split second. I bought a PSU tester and plugged it in, it showed the correct voltages and showed green LED's meaning the...

I currently have a 120 GB SSD as my C: drive, this is pretty much full now, I have tried freeing up some space but I feel like I've done as much as I really can to free up a significant amount of space on it. I want to buy a new, larger SSD as it would be nice to install software onto my SSD and...

Thanks for the advice, I will probably just get some nice new headphones and see what I do from there

I was thinking about getting a soundcard but my knowledge on them is very basic, how much of a difference would it make? I have this motherboard at the moment https://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-Z97-Gaming-LGA1150-Motherboard/dp/B00K8KPXUO and I use headphones which were around £80 so they are good...

I have recently bought the samson c01U mic and it seems great but it is way to sensitive, it picks up everything from my mouse clicks to noises downstairs. When I go ionto the recordings tab and then onto the mic properties there is no "mic boot" under the levels tab, only volume. The volume...

Thanks fo rthe info, I may get the samson CO1U, I was just wondering how much the shock mount will benifit me as it does make things a little expensive. Am I right in thinking the shcok mount removes sound that will come from vibrations from my desk and through the arm stand? if so could I...

I am looking to buy a mic to use as I have great headphones but I am currently using the mic on my webcam which is aweful. I was looking at the audio techinca at2020 and it seems really good but I am not sure I want to spend so much money on a mic as I will only be using it to talk to people as...
