Hi All I've just finished my first loop and after tightening up a couple of jubilee clips it seems watertight so far. However I need some help bleeding the loop. I'm using the XSPC reservoir top for Laing D5 with a D5 vario installed. It is very noisy so far. The pump does not seem to be...

Hi all I have bought some 140mm Aerocool Shark fans for my radiator. I got the red LED version as plain black was not available at the time and the prices were the same anyway – I am not really bothered about looks. I have not had the chance to use them yet as I’m waiting for other parts before...

Hi All I'm new to watercooling and am about to try my first build (final parts should be delivered today). I have bought two EK full cover blocks for my 500 series sli graphics system. I used EK because they have a configurator tool and could provide blocks which matched my Pallit cards which...

Hi Everyone, I made a post last August with a technical problem but despite some extremely helpful advice never found out what was causing the problem – until now I think. To recap, in some of my PC games I was getting what I described as large translucent swirling snowflakes mainly in...

Hi I'm confused about the memory on my graphics card and could use some advice. I have a Pallit 2GB Geforce GTX 285. The GPU-Z utility shows the memory as 2048MB which is what I would expect. However I've also run dxdiag on Windows 7 and it shows the approx memory as 748MB which is way too...

Hi This is my first post on this forum and I hope someone can help me. I'm pretty new to gaming and system building and am experiencing an annoying graphics glitch in some parts of some games. The anomaly appears as large translucent snowflakes slowly swirling in some parts of games and is...
