You'll probably be OK, depends how well the tester knows the 182 as they might twig the button has been removed. IIRC it's stability control not just traction control, so it's testable. These are the criteria: You must check all vehicles fitted with electronic stability control other than Class...

It’s BRAVE I have no idea why, it was set a few owners back and a mate hacked it for me when I took the battery off once 😂

It will either just stop working one day or you’ll start to get frequent crashing/reboots/display corruption. Honestly I wouldn’t worry about it, if it’s still doing everything you need then crack on. You might want to consider refreshing the thermal paste at some point if cpu or GPU temps...

I guess they figured their reputation is now so strong that they can make more money with lower margins on higher volume if they position themselves at that price point. Proper gateway drug to Fanatec kit :LOL:

Before I stick them up for sale elsewhere, any interest in an i7-11700 and 16Gb of 3200 DDR4 (2x8Gb)? £175 for the i7, £30 for the memory, £200 for all of it.

Sadly not, warranty expired. I'm still not 100% sure if it's dead dead or whether it's just some weird incompatibility between this motherboard and that card, who knows..... 6700 XT is doing the business nicely now so that's all good.

You might have a leak, it had both the washer pumps replaced when I had it as it was pissing the fluid out of the reservoir rather than putting it on the screen. Doesn't mean one hasn't gone bad, but they were done IIRC. Should be an invoice in the history file. It will do low 30's MPG on a...

Cool, that's what I'm hoping and also what the reviews seem to suggest, especially with the driver improvements AMD have made since launch. Given the price I'd be perfectly happy with parity or even a slight drop in performance.

Nice :) I wanted something new with a warranty and a 3080 is overkill for me TBH, I was perfectly happy with the 3060Ti. Only went with the 6700 XT as it was priced in line with the non-Ti 3060s but sits somewhere between the 3060Ti and 3070. Don't tend to use ray tracing or DLSS so hopefully it...

Damn. My 3060Ti is dead, it has ceased to be, it pines for the fjords no more. I am currently rocking a GeForce GT 730, as it's all I had lying around. Oh yes. Feel the power. The 3060Ti always did well for me, but I've snagged a Radeon 6700 XT for £340 as a replacement. Graphics card market...

You will probably need to turn off fall detection when playing football,

Yes, you can. It’s not there by default but it’s just a case of clicking add workout and picking it from the list. Not sure if it will fix the fall detection though.

It's behind a black X5, so obviously it's going to be enormous quantities of drugs. That car is turning into the forum bike :LOL:

Obligatory Peniston image.

One certainly can. 😂 I will, I will!….. eventually

New desk! Still some tidying to do but finally got plenty of space and can use my wheel and pedals, retro arcade joystick or the flight sim joystick at will. Plus cup holders. Who doesn’t need cup holders 😂

Is it wrong that I really want the shoe case?

Should do the job fine. The M.2 drives connect straight to the PCI bus so it's hard to go wrong with a PCI slot adaptor for them as it literally just has to connect the right pins.

Yep, it's an NR200. It's only running a 10th gen i7 11700 with a 65w TDP so that little Noctua cooler will do the job just fine. I'd probably throw one of the chunky BeCool! LP coolers in there if I was running something hotter.

Really enjoyed it in the end! Case was great to work in, everything went smoothly, a genuinely enjoyable build. Only job left to do is swap out the top fans for some Noctuas I have in the other case, as the ones supplied with this are a little bit louder than I’d like.

CPU cooler is missing from my delivery. Company say they are overwhelmed with customer queries because of postal strikes so give them four days to respond to emails about missing items. 🤷‍♂️ I also ordered an ATX power supply by mistake. For some reason my brain translated the "RMx" in the part...

Eufy are in the middle of a bit of a scandal about their supposed "all your data stays local, nothing in the cloud" functionality. In as much as, they totally lied about it. If that's important to you then it's worth keeping in mind.

I did something stupid. Again. I fancied doing a case transplant as I don't like the XPS case at all. Then I decided I wanted to upgrade the motherboard, because the Dell one is pap and won't even let me enable XMP. I don't need more memory performance, it just annoys me that I can't have it...

They had me in stitches on the first car auction video they did where they bought a shonky range rover (is there any other kind) and the caravan ones too. Just a couple of blokes cocking around, what's not to like.

I admire the effort which must have gone into it, but it's pure insanity. £22.5k for something where the fun is at least partially in the journey of building the thing. I do get the lure of having one of the most powerful cars of it's type but bloody hell.

Jersey car maybe? Not technically an import but would need to be UK registered.

I’d say either someone has put an older plate on it or it’s a 2002 car which was imported and allocated an age appropriate plate when brought into the UK and registered here.

Hell, I wouldn't have listened to me either when I was starting out. Boring old fart, f**k off, had to get what I could afford to insure and modding is fun.

The boring, but always true, answer is that if you want a fast car you are best off starting with a fast car.

Another 22b went through collecting cars this week. £250,502 plus £7,200 fees. Ooof.
