My little effort: http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa224/shiftyjoe/desktop.jpg

Bought WoW today (got the battlechest version and lich king update). I installed the battlechest dvd (WoW and TBC) and created and updated my battlenet account whilst it was installing, added the CD keys for all 3 games (WoW, TBC, WotLK). Once the battle chest dvd had finished installing, I...

Why is pay as you go better than contract? I pay £15 a month for unlimited texts and 600 minutes, and for the amount I use, it would cost much more on a pay as you go phone. Secondly it's not a 2 year deal its a rolling 1 month contract so I can cancel it any time I want with 30 days notice...

My current phone is nackered but I want to stay on the same tarif so I plan on buying a new Pay As You Go phone and sticking my current sim card in it. I like the look of the LG Cookie and the LG KS360 but I've heard a few bad things about both these models. Does anyone have any...

So simple it hurts a little!

I like the colour scheme you've got going in there, good effort!

Having had a fiddle, it seems it is the fan itself which is the problem, it does it out of the dust filter too. With the fan just sat on the bottom not screwed down its silent, but as soon as I screw it down it starts to rattle so I don't know whether its a defective fan as it seems to be...

Just finished setting mine up (will post pics later), but one thing I've noticed is the bottom fan which draws air into the case from nuderneath is making a horrible rattling noise where it is seemingly catching against the dust filter. Anyone else noticed this? Whats the best way to solve...

Yeah, I've just noticed this, I was being a n00b. I've only ever seem them attached to an intel CPU where they are physically screwed onto the mobo. Upon reading the instruction booklet I realised that the AMD mount just clips on. Excuse my ingnorance

The orange plastic bracket which surrounds the CPU I'm referring to. I don't see how the Xigmatek CPU cooler attaches with this still attached, or am I being stupid?

Probably a stupid question, but im guessing I'm going to have to unscrew and remove the orange plastic bracket that comes attached to the motherboard for the stock AMD CPU cooler in order to attach my Xigmatek Dark Knight?

Ordered mine for my new rig last night too, will post pics when it arrives! Excited! :D

Thanks 0m3g4. Overclocking is of little concern to me at the moment with my current skills/abilities, may be one day in the future but will most likely have upgraded again by then anyway. I just want a nice, reliable board which isnt too expensive, this seems to fit the bill. I've have already...

Well, due to unforseen circumstances this rig has been put on the back burner for a while, but I'm pleased to announce I will be order it finally tonight. Would someone mind checking over my list of components just to make sure I havent made any glaring errors? Case: CoolerMaster RC-690...

I just went to purchase this mobo (which was recommended to me by a member on here a few months ago) for my new rig from scan.co.uk, only to find it no longer exists on their website. Has it been discontinued?! They still have the cheaper UD3P, is this model any good? If so what would be a good...

Tuck them under the carpet?

I'm just about to build an AM2+ system and I plan to use the GA-MA790X-UD4P Heard a lot of good things. Hope this helps

What is that Turbo Air thing you have on your desk? Is it like a mini vacuum cleaner?

I'll have to give it a try then, I'm looking for a new keyboard for my new build, I like chunky I cannot stand these new slimline laptop-style keyboards Thanks mate

What keyboard is that Herl? I like how the keys are illuminated. Great looking 'station ps. is that one of those things for hanging bunches of bananas you have your headphones hanging from? looks cool!

I've still got the 3200+ in my current rig, 5 years old and still going strong!

That's Ken Block's car isnt it? EDIT - Just noticed it says Block on the rear window, doh!

I've noticed this too. I knew something was different but I couldn't put my finger on what it was, but now you mention the gap at the side, that's what it was that was bugging me

Try holding your breath / drinking a cup of water upside down, helps when I have hiccups. Or something that makes you jump. (I'm sorry, couldn't resist, I have nothing useful to add to this disucssion I'm sorry :( )

that's me put in my place then

Let us know what you think, I'm tempted to get some HARX700's for myself

Thanks for that J Macker, just looked them up and they look pretty good, not a bad price either, are they pretty popular then? Also, do they need hooking up to an amp, or can I just plug them straight into my pc?

OMG, that's horrible gb4ever, I'm so sorry for your loss :(

Yes it does, Reverse Osmosis removes everything (assuming its proper RO not HMA), via mechanical and chemical filtration, in fact in industry they use Reverse Osmosis specifically for purpose of removing minerals Distilling on the other hand, is simply boiling and then re-condensing into liquid

That is one s**t-hot rig! I would love something like that, its so clean and smooth and minimalist, I love it. Black and blue = best colour scheme IMO also. Not so fussed on the "million dollar" PC tho

My T190 arrived today, haven't wired it up yet, but none the less it is a very aesthetically pleasing unit, looking forward to seeing how it performs once I hook it up to my 4890 :D

I'm looking for a new set up speakers my the PC I'm in the process of building I currently have a 2.1 kit I've had for about 5 years which has done me fine I dont want to spend more than somewhere of £50-£100 at the most. I'm not interested in a 5.1 surround system or giant speakers, just a...

I also have this problem! After clicking the Firefox icon, it takes like a minute or so for the browser to open/load up, so I'm interested to see the responses to this (if there are any), as it never used to take time to load up, usually opened instantly

Golden doodle! I love it!

Excuse my ignorance/naivety, but how/why does one audio burn headphones?

How does this one look? £102 with the £10 cashback

Thanks DragonQ, I'll have a look at those. I probably should have mentioned I'll be running it off an XFX 4890

I'm looking for a decent 19" monitor, not for photo editing or anything like, just gaming/internet browsing/some work, so it doesnt have to be some high end product. I've been looking at the Samsung SM933SN 18.5" TFT Monitor. Anybody used this monitor or know if its any good? One thing that...

Lmao!

In my infinite wisdom (after getting thoroughly p***ed off with XP SP3 failing to install again), I uninstalled the Belkin Wireless Networking Utility programme I use with my wireless USB adapter. Now, however, no matter how many times I install / re-install the wireless networking utility, I...
