    which is better: dust filter material sheet or buy the actual fan filter? And why aluminum filter?

    Happy Hopping What mesh size did you decide on in the end? I want filter for the top of my Phanteks X... DEMCiflex make a custom filter, but it's $30 after shipping to the UK, and might jump to $40 if I get a import/customs charge, so I'm looking at making my own since a 1 metre roll of nylon is...

    How best to setup additional user account in Win 10 for kids' homework?

    Games are all .exe, primarily Fortnite and Overwatch, hence my thinking to use Local Group Policy to disable/restrict. Is Local Group Policy the best/easiest method?

    How best to setup additional user account in Win 10 for kids' homework?

    My son has started secondary school and needs to use the family computer for homework now, however, the temptation of playing games is a bit too strong for him! Currently I have Win 10 Pro with a single account (that we all use) that is password protected to first sign in, but no password when...

    Analyst Predicts Weak Market for Samsung S8 Due to Attractive iPhone 8 Launch

    By this stage I would like to think everyone is familiar with the hyperbole preceding a Apple product launch, which includes all the new features Apple could implement, followed by the reality of finally discovering the small amount of new features that Apple choose to implement, thus saving...

    Xiaomi Reveals 64-Bit Surge S1 Chipset, Its First-Ever SoC

    Honestly, I'm disappointed to see some of the comments here. To the best of my knowledge, Xiaomi is a privately owned company, not state owned. To assume they are in collusion with absolutely no proof is unreasonable. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiaomi...

    Lexmark printer - have I made a mistake?

    Anyone with experience of the Lexmark inkjet printers? Reviews around the web say that text and graphics print well, but opinions on photo printing is mixed. I've had Epson and Canon before... Epson was OK, but preferred Canon... but not convinced by the last one playing up. I've used a lot of...

    Lexmark printer - have I made a mistake?

    I'm looking for a little reassurance here, though I'm afraid that I might not like the response I get! :confused: My Canon Pixma IP5000 printer was brilliant for the first 2 years, then I got major banding issues and blue streaks across photos... I think the print head is dead. After putting...

    Overclocking integrated GFX on M4A785TD-M

    I am testing out the limits of my new Phenom 720 on an Asus M4A785TD-M EVO mobo, and I am using integrated graphics. I have the voltage set to AUTO and have upped the GFX engine from 500 to 1000 before hitting any artifacts using ATI Tool. My concern is, what voltage is going through it...

    Auzentech Forte Driver version 1.1 Released

    No, I'm not joking! Actually, the release notes say that Automode settings have been fixed, whereas none of my settings, including Automode, are retained. Also, auto-mute does not work with the rear jack; however, if you have both speakers and headphones in the back then if you select 'Optimize...

    DDR3 1333 or 1600 for core i7

    Going back to the original question of DDR3-1333 vs 1600, I've decided that 1333 should be enough. Check out this thread that I started at OcUK. To summarise, the 920 has a locked multi of 20. A BLCK of 200 would give a CPU frequency of 4 GHz (this is an optimistic overclock). With a 8x...
