Hey, my PSU is a OCZ 650W ZT. I do think it'll be enough so I'm good on that one, the guy has backed out the deal and stuck it up on auction now so I guess I gotta clench hard and hope for the best!

Thanks dude, I ended up getting a copy of Disk Drill and scanned my whole drive. It's brought up quite a lot of files from before which include photos, video's and music but I couldn't find any access to the library directory where the iTunes backup would be. Still ongoing with this one I'm...

Okay guys, this is a really messy situation I'm in but anyone who can actually get my data back I will be in debt to for the rest of my life <3 So, my Macbook Pro was running really slow with all this crap I had in it so I stupidly decided to wipe it and restore it. Unfortunately, I had a...

Alrighty, I'll go for the GTX 970. Cheers lads!

I was having a look at the EVGA GTX 970 SSC version, I think it's around £230'ish to buy. On the other hand, the GTX 780ti Matrix Platinum is £180. I'm not too sure how they compete though as I'm not too good at reading the specs of GPU's in the comparisons.

Hi, I know there's plenty of threads regarding this but I couldn't find an answer concerning this specific version of the GTX 780ti. I've been offered a GTX 780ti Matrix Platinum for £40 less than a GTX 970. I know this card is older and only has 3GB of VRAM but I have been looking at the...

I've been offered a Z87X-UD3H for a very cheap price. Anyone know if it'll fit in my case? I have a CM Silencio 352. Thanks.

Ahh, right. That explains it. GPU-Z is showing 1280MB, thanks man!

Alright, so I bought this dirt-cheap PC today and decided that I was going to upgrade the GPU so I have myself a decent rig at a decent price. These are the specs; Intel Core i5-4670K @ 3.4 GHz 16GB Corsair RAM Asus GTX 570 (4GB?) Corsair H80i liquid cooling 128GB OCZ SSD 1TB WD HDD Cooler...

I'd be looking to recommend the GTX 980/970 or GTX 780ti. Have you got a budget in mind? I know I'm going to get attacked by folk saying otherwise but it's just my two cents.

Okay, so enough about my terminology I guess and more about the spec in question? I can't really change it, if I use it for programming, video editing and gaming, will it last be a good four years or so?

Well, if I could pick components, I would. But to be honest, these are the specs I have to play with. I could sell the Titan I think and then get a GTX 980, right?

Hi, so I've been offered a PC from a friend for £900. I'm looking about spending my University funding on it and it's pretty high over my budget so I'm wondering whether you guys could help me with the specs and tell me if anything would need upgraded in say, the next three or four years...

As much as that PC build looks sick in the pcpartpicker, I don't think I can really justify spending that much on a PC for which I'll use for light gaming, programming and editing. Although, I do agree with you with the fact that the new DDR4 RAM, the new haswell-e processor will definitely set...

I've seen a few parts up for sale on a classifieds site and they seem to be fairly decent for the prices. All in all, I reckon I can build a full tower for around £600 with these parts if they are compatible with each other. It's vital that these do work together as I really don't have money to...
