Still won’t get 60FPS with RTX on...

I didn't think having the timing checked was that expensive, £100 or so? Which IMO would be money well spent to conclusively rule out a big "unknown". It's the adjusting/correcting that costs a few hundred more (which again is money well spent if the timing is out). I have no idea who the...

https://notkyon.moe/ram-latency.htm Just incase anyone’s curious.

Whether or not you’ll enjoy it depends on what it is and what else you drive IMO. Sequentials are massively satisfying but only at full throttle. Personally I find dogleg boxes far more trouble than they’re worth, overall slower as you’re constantly manouvering around the gate in an unnatural...

I’m sure I’ll get the names of the menus wrong as it’s presumably all translated from French so sounds a bit odd anyway, but after the “computer test” then “multiplex network” test I’d be going into “petrol injection”. Do a “fault test” to see any DTCs. A red circle is a fault currently...

Same as any other dealer level diagnostic SW really. * view entire (?) network to see which electrical modules are present (“multiplex test”) in said vehicle * View & clear codes, both Renault-specific & generic OBD protocol * Look at live values from sensors/switches * Actuate solenoids...

Did you get the piston out in the end? Mine moves freely, as in I can push it further in easily and the spring returns it easily. Tried making a hook out of a coat hanger but no luck. For the record I have a 22mm Bosch MC in a 54plate cup packed 182.

Scan have a really interesting page. Number of unfulfilled pre orders, how many & what SKU they’re due to receive each week etc for 3000/6000 & 5000... https://www.scan.co.uk/shops/nvidia/rtx-30-series-faqs Looks like 5000 series is about to become freely available, 3090 ramping down, 3070...

Anyone seen any articles on VRAM capacity vs bandwidth? Curious as to how futureproof an 8GB RTX 3060 Ti will be at 1440p over the next couple of years considering that next gen consoles should start to stretch AAA titles a bit more. Although 8GB on the 3060/3070 sounds a bit limited I'm aware...

Imagine launching another gfx card when you still can’t buy the previous 3 from the same company, or the 3 from the competition 😂

Firstly, buy a desktop. More powerful for less money. Easily upgradable 5 years down the line or should you become interested in FEA/CFD/rendering. Easier/cheaper to have more screen space which is great for being able to see detail without loosing the bigger picture, or for having CAD &...

I think you asked a subtly clever question, not just what’s best (AMD & nVidia, obviously), r.e. the trade off between CPU & GPU which hasn’t really been answered yet? Having never used Blender, Google says that not all features can be GPU accelerated and of the ones that can CUDA (nVidia only)...

That’s something which was better in the old days. Put in a disc. Play. Game saves stored locally etc. Now you need 407 different game launchers from all the diffferent publishers. Steam, origin, uplay, battlelog, whatever the blizzard one is... leaves your program files & start menu folder in...

A sheet of ice with water poured on top, on the moon, has more grip than a T1R. When you zoom in 3 & 4 have a ton more cracks than #1 though which makes me question whether they are actually the same age. Is #4 cracked all the way around the circumference? Difficult to tell from the angle, but...

To be fair the first one seems alright. No sign of any hot graining so doesn’t appear to have been used properly on track much, but also no cold graining so it hasn’t been spanked from cold on track either. Wear looks like camber so appears to have been run at correct pressures. But it’s the...

Fortunately it’s been made easy. Literally an adult version of this: The only exception I can think of is that sometimes there are 4 rectangle holes and you only have two rectangle things to plug in.

You forgot cheap PSU. That’s the other area where you absolutely do not under any circumstances need to spend any more than £15 on IIRC. :LOL:

Didn’t even know G Sync TVs were a thing. Assume today is 3070 review day then? In amongst all this RGB crap and mice with more flat surfaces and jaunty angles than an F35 Lightning... I am still using an MX518 purchased around the time of Queen Victoria‘s death. Works fine.

Not meaning to take anything away from this effort, but the quickest lap (to date) probably isn’t going to be found by looking at recent CSCC entrants or track day videos on YouTube though is it. It’ll be the pro half of some random pro am entry of a supercharged cup racer on a pre-YouTube...

RGB is literally the computing equivalent of stickers/racing stripes. +10 FPS IIRC

Come up for sale relatively often on the likes of racecarsdirect. Gone are the days of seeing them on circuits though. Plenty used for rallying and hill climb. Sure I heard/read somewhere that all the ph2s were just updated ph1s, so there’s potentially only one or two season’s worth of cars...

Every circuit has corners which are more or less forgiving if you get it wrong. Just use your common sense. You don’t have to give it 110% on every corner. But yeah, there’s less stuff to hit than say Cadwell or Nurburgring and it’s not like Knockhill or Donington where every other corner is a...

Alternatively for a cheaper option... 100mm bass ports x2 = £3 delivered 102mm ducting x500mm x2 = £18 delivered Pretty good fit in the fog light holes with minimal trimming.

Ignore me I'm being an idiot. Thought that was the back of the UCH till I noticed there were only two big connectors.

Plastics4performance are cheaper if you just want to the rear quarters. ACW motorsport are cheaper if you want the whole kit and have a few more options e.g. locking slider. There was an ebay seller doing the full set for £420 once upon a time but seems to have disappeared.

Tried this at kwikfit once off peak, young lad was halfway through rolling my wheels across the workshop and the manager comes running out shouting about doing jobs off the books and whether he wants to go down that route etc :LOL: Fair enough that chains aren't interested tbh. Since found an...

Ebuyer have 20% off on their ebay store at the moment. They don't have everything that the main site does and the ebay prices are all over the place (good & bad) but someone might find it useful.

In fairness to the bank’s anti fraud algorithms £1500+ on one graphics card is “unusual” lol I remember thinking £400 odd for a 9800GX2 was a bit much 😂

UCH rivnutted onto the bit above the bulkhead that houses the wiper motor. Fusebox in the original ish location, big P clips around the A pillar and door bar parts of the cage.
