Even when they are loose, it's rare for blu-ray discs to get scratched. I've only had one come with scratches but that was loose in a…

Pretty much zero. Amazon UK will use a padded bag or envelope. Maybe if you order more items and get lucky with a combined shipment.

DS1 is a proper remaster with rock solid 60fps. DS2 is an enhanced port that did get backported to PS3 (Scholar content), also has all DLC…

LG, Sony, etc all have 1 year warranty: https://www.lg.com/au/support/warranty

That's every TV.

The daily Bing searches via browser and mobile, and daily logins are generally enough to get continuous "free" XGPU. They nuked the way…

Thanks for the heads up, worked for me. I had a 1 month XGPU code lying around which converted it too, expires July 31st 2026. Only had a…

Which means that list is outdated. TCL are decent TVs especially the 8-series, much better than Hisense let alone Bauhn.

My Windows 11 laptop is using 8.7GB with just 1 tab open in Edge (this one).

Mine came in a box saying it was an IPS screen but the OLED was inside.

Keep telling yourself that when you "enjoy" your 100th open world game with melodramatic story telling.

SMSL shop has the M300 SE for $172 and the DL200 for $252. The M300 SE is a good all-rounder and the best you'll get for under $200. The…

More info here: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/samsung/odyssey-g5-g51c-s27cg51 It's pretty average even for VA standards. I suppose…

I have the 8845HS version and it gets about 5-6 hours with general usage, 100% screen brightness, performance mode. In silent mode you…

The BIOS says there is a second drive but I've not opened mine (8845HS version).

Definitely improved my temps by quite a bit upgrading from an NH-D14. It was 14 years old though.

780M is so good that it makes the 3050 6GB look a bit redundant. Dedicated VRAM is nice though.

I mean it's just a drop in upgrade (maybe a BIOS update) and you're getting a huge increase to gaming performance, much better single core…

If you don't mind going AMD and willing to pay an extra $400, there's this:…

Even better grab a 2nd hand GPU like the 5700 XT for $200~ which will outperform the 6600.

Check your motherboard page and download/update the BIOS. If you bought the motherboard back when the 2600 came out then it definitely…

5950X literally sips power compared to Intel.

The average doesn't tell the whole story. The 5800X3D can be +20% faster in some games. 5950X is a decent gaming CPU though, Zen 3 saw…

5950X has 16 cores and 32 threads. Absolutely demolishes the 12600KF in multi core.

Don't compromise on the screen. $200 well and truly justifies the OLED screen but you can probably get cheaper alternatives which still…

Is one of your monitors high refresh and free sync? Possibly disabling free sync may help. It can force AMD hardware to run at high clocks…

The 8645HS has the 760M. I'm using the 8845HS and it says 780M.

With the 780M being fairly close to a 3050 in performance, it's a pretty pointless combo. Only advantage is dedicated GDDR6 and CUDA (and…

50% is the best case scenario too. Commonly only 10-20% faster which at 30-40fps is almost indistinguishable.

It won't have any problem running Terraria even at 2880x1800. The 8845HS version has a 780M which is the most powerful integrated graphics…
