Spec me a 60" tv on a $5k budget

Hey guys, I've just moved to the US for work and will be here for a two year period, at which point I will be heading back to England. Im in the market for a new tv but am mindful that there may be issues with anything I buy here working back in the uk. The specific issues that I can think of...

Spec me a 24" gaming monitor for £250

Mainly fps to be honest. Perhaps on that basis Id be best off going for the 120htz models. Thanks again

Spec me a 24" gaming monitor for £250

Thanks. Is 120htz really 'all that' for gaming? I only ask as i have no real interest in 3d at present so Im wondering what the fuss is about 120htz Also, is it worth considering some of the ips panels out the like the dell ultrasharp?

Hard Drive Woes

"To resolve your current issue, your data is intact. You'll need to do a partition recovery. I highly recommend testdisk. It's free, extremely powerful, but it's not user friendly, but it sounds like you got enough knowledge to use it. However, if I were you, I'd download the manufacture's...

Hard Drive Woes

Having an infuriating problem with my hard drive. I have 2 hard disks, one for Windows, the second for Steam and other games. I was doing a big of cable management earlier and to change something around had to pull the SATA cable out of the second hard disk. After a couple of seconds I put...

Wonderfully weird GFX issue

Thanks gents. Looks like a replacement is needed. I'm thinking GTX 460 or 470. Probably 470 given the price has come down so much. There's one I cant get for £180 including Mafia 2 which seems like a good bet. EDIT: Er... sorry double post. Not quite sure what happened there.

Wonderfully weird GFX issue

I've tried the dust option with no success. Regarding the driver corruption option, you could be right but wouldn't that only kick in once windows loaded? I'm getting visual madness from the first screen onward. Even if I jump straight into bios the text is all over the place. Regarding...

Wonderfully weird GFX issue

Hi All Having some incredibly odd graphical quirks going on with my system at the moment which I wondered if anybody might be able to shed any light on. Basically I was playing a game the other day when suddenly my PC bluescreens on me and restarts. I figure no big deal and try again on...

Spec me a new GFX card

Thanks Gents. I will take a look at the 460 and 6870 as I hadn't really considered either before. Much obliged.

Spec me a new GFX card

Thanks Powermoloch A few follow up questions if I may: - I hadnt considered the power. Is it more power hungry that the 8800 GTX? I always thought those things were the most power hungry card on the planet, but I may be out of date. Given my rig (see first post - no overclock running) do...

Spec me a new GFX card

Gents, My faithful old 8800 GTX appears to have died on its arse, so I find myself in need of a new card. I'm reluctant to buy myself a whole new rig, so all I can really afford to upgrade right now is the card itself, so I'll be needing a card that will work with my system. I'm a gamer and...
