Good afternoon PCS Forum, and hello again, its been a good while! Mum is in need of a new laptop, so thought I would gauge the advice of the experts. I think I have left in the relevant specs that need ironing out etc. She likes to have a large display, so the 17" looks the best option in the...

Hi guys, Had my new PC for a few weeks and there are a couple of things I wanted to see if you could shed some light on. Firstly, when I turn on the PC, after a couple of seconds there is a short sharp "beep". It sounds like it is coming from nearer the front of the tower, but that is rather...

Hi all, long time :) I was already thinking about this anyway, but then PCS kindly sent me an email informing me it is the anniversary of my order, which means it is now 6 YEARS since I ordered my Sniper! I also can't believe it is 2 and a half years since I upgraded my graphics card to try...

Hi guys, been a while. Google has failed me in this instance, so I thought it best to seek some competent and knowledgeable folks to ask. Having failed at that as well, I thought of you. :ban: Recently, on some occasions, there has been a blue light on the back of my PC after I turn it off...

Next week allegedly, possibly the 23rd. Just news sites reporting it at the moment, nothing official of course :) However, you know it's coming, so brace yourselves and your wallets. Saying that, they really do need some new games in there, because I swear a lot of us pretty much have nigh on...

Hi guys. Been tasked by dad with getting mum a new laptop as her's is getting a tad old now and could really do with a refresh. Her current laptop was from PCS in 2011, so has done well. It is a Genesis III with the following spec: Genesis III: 15.6" Glossy HD LED 16:9 Widescreen (1366x768)...

A lot of people have probably already seen this poster, or some variation of it (think this link is the largest/most comprehensive one I have seen yet) http://orig03.deviantart.net/494a/f/2014/171/0/1/size_comparison___science_fiction_spaceships_by_di rkloechel-d6lfgdf.jpg (I put the link...

Random question that I will explain in a bit, but does anyone have XBox Live Gold Membership AND play HALO 5 Guardians? (This is a safe place, nobody is judging you here for being a console monkey. Well, not out loud anyway...) DED

Let's just state this right now. NO SPOILERS IN HERE Just wondering two things. When are you going to see it? and How on this green Earth are you going to avoid finding out anything about the plot etc for the time between now and then? I am going next Tuesday for reasons I am still a...

Very random question but does anyone know much about telescopes? (Stating right now that this has buggerall to do with John Lewis or people on the Moon) Recently got rid of dad's telescope as it was pretty banged up and not really ever used that much. Was therefore thinking about getting a new...

Saw this today and it was one of those that was funnier than I thought it'd be, so now you get to see it too :)

To counter all those rather pointlessly overthetop negative threads on here lately, here's a seal surfing on a whale...

I'm not sure what to do now. Somehow everything has less meaning and makes a little less sense than it did yesterday. Now every time I go to search for something it just feels like something is different, not good or bad, just different. When I open Chrome now, I will be greeted with unfamiliar...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33684831 No politics here, but you have to laugh when one of the most corrupt leaders in the world says that about one of the other most corrupt leaders in the world :)

It finally happened! After 4 years, and over 5000 posts, my reply to a thread has been put in a queue to be moderated! Makes you feel all special :ban::hammer:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-32593735 This might be the most ridiculous use of EU rules on trademark registration I have ever seen. So apparently now we (the public) could easily confuse Sky and skype and somehow think they are linked in some way. My favourite part of the judgement...

If this isn't the best part of your day so far, then I really want your job/life :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfcC6FYyL4U

Best April Fool I have found today so far... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32138409

Discuss. My goto website for checking both the news, but more importantly whether my internet connection is working seems to have self-destructed over the last week into something more akin to someone's A-Level web-design project. "Discuss" might have been too elaborate word for this, but this...

Not taking anything away from Mr Nimoy, but this one hits me harder, and is really sad. He did suffer for a number of years, but was still able to create his magic and bring joy to so many. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-31858156
