Right chaps, have managed to convince my parents into hopefully allowing me to choose a new router. I can't do anything to the connection or anything though, just change the router. It can't be very expensive though, I don't really know the prices of routers but would under £30 or possibly in...
I think these are quite cool, I think the 9 bay one is the best (link below) but I haven't looked into them in detail. I don't know how old they are and what there cooling/cable management is like. I think they look quite cool though! Anyway, have a look at the acrylic series by sunbeam and see...
Ok, I wanted to buy one of the mem card readers for £1 but can't connect them to my mobo. Therefore, I was wondering if there was any way to convert the internal header that looks like this (credit to corfate for the pic!): .
I need to convert it to a normal male usb 2 plug but am just...
Ok, I know this sounds a little weird but I was wondering whether anyone has an old laptop that they won't be using the wifi card for anymore. When you open the laptop (normally very easy to access the wifi card) you will see a black wire and a white wire leaving the card. They have snap-on...
Although I have nothing against Kingston and Intel SSDs, I was wondering if it was possible that pcs could stock a larger variety. I realise that they used to stock ocz ones and can fully understand why they stopped that. However, is it possible that they could contemplate some different SATA3...

I found these that claim to be ivy bridge benchmark results that seemed to have leaked on to the web. Can't be certain about their source and validity though but they are what we were expecting. Have a look, link at bottom to website.
The official Ivy Bridge test result, Intel‘s processors that...
Hi there,
I was just wondering if it was possible to buy a couple of 3GB 580s from pcs? If so how much would it cost? If I can't, where is the best place to get them?

Hi there,
Hope I have posted this in the right place, basically when I go onto pcs on my iphone and go through the configurator, I cannot see the price on the right as the strip containing the video or pics of the laptop don't go where they should but are on the right at the correct height but...
Hi there, doing this for a friend. Basically, my friend wants to spend £2,000 on a pc for gaming but needs 3 monitors (not included in that price). He is getting a quote from one of his friends working in pc world and I made a bet that I could beat that quote with a better spec and price...

Hi, I was wondering which graphics card I would need. Preferably the 1GB one as it is cheaper but if the upgrade is necessary then I will accept that. The options are:
nVIDIA GeForce GT 540M - 1GB DDR3 Video RAM - DirectX 11

nVIDIA GeForce GT 555M - 2GB DDR3 Video RAM - DirectX 11
