I had an Alienware M15 RTX2080 for over 2 years. Great bit of kit for editing, Adobe and light gaming. Plugged into a 1440p 165hz. Was awesome, apart from the heat lol As quality goes on laptops that thing was rock solid and never missed a beat. Just had to clean it out every 6 months. It'll...

try unplugging all i/o on mobo and the rear i/o use the bare minimum you can get away with. it was 12 or so years ago, and was something like a usb connection. my memory isn't great tbf.

So gutted I missed out on this. Messaged the lad a couple of times too... blanked me!

It's a cable extension kit around £30 I believe, or corsair do the sleeved kits around £80. I've got the same PSU as well. I also do this with the IO cables.

Got a Predator 4k monitor for £90.... pretty happy and so is the boy.

I had this years and years ago. Drove me mad. I done everything mentioned above. Something stupid solved it. I cannot remember exactly, if my memory is correct it was I/O power cables, USB or something.

Do like your setup, it screams power and productivity.

Talking of therapeutic cleaning and dust. I have a black desk that attracts dust.... i have OCD with it and it drives me mad. These wet wipes from sainsburys do me well, for a few days.... I also drag them through the keys on my keyboard. I need to find some real anti-static spray tho.

Thank you. I was referring to the £28-35 fans, which was all i was seeing on overclockers. All I wanted was some black corsair fans with white LED's to go with this pc. I closed the tab straight away when i saw them :roll: I may give these a try. Not too bad a price and hopefully they have...

Since when were 120mm PC fans so expensive????? And why all the BS rgb....

Everything sucks at the moment tbf. And you'd need a lot more spending money for the inflated sainsburys prices tbf. Try make something good from something bad, maybe learn something new with your free time? Side-hustle it up a bit. Airbnb is overpriced because that here atm is a side-hustle...

Yea I'm upgrading. The difference between pcie3 and 4 is huge too. hopefully that kind of setup should last a couple of years.

I know we all mock generational improvements... and little gains, lots of cost etc etc. But look at this... edit: i'm already wanting to upgrade FML... :roll:

Nice! I've certainly noticed the prices of watercooling gear skyrocketed in price. Your loops making me want to go custom loop again so bad.

Back in with a 3080 / i9 10850k. 9 or so years out the game. PC's have definitely advanced in that time.
