    PCSPECIALIST New Build, Corsair 5000D, Strix 570, 5900X, 32GB RAM

    Actually - just found this bit of info in your link Spyder: That basically means I won't be able to use it at all. :rolleyes: Incidentally, I have decided that if it takes an adult to screw up something that is childproof, then it takes a genius to screw up something that is foolproof. By...

    PCSPECIALIST New Build, Corsair 5000D, Strix 570, 5900X, 32GB RAM

    That looks like something that could test the wording of my Health Insurance policy!

    PCSPECIALIST New Build, Corsair 5000D, Strix 570, 5900X, 32GB RAM

    If that were true though @ubuysa, then I should at Einstein level intelligence by now. 😃 The damage done to my fingers this morning while trying to fix a tap would suggest otherwise sadly.......

    And this thread is coming from a previous Amazing Spaces winner..... 🤦‍♂️

    PCSPECIALIST Cleaning Day!

    Thanks @sck451 - yes I've been away from a while - needed to clean the psychological dust build-up for a while too...... Yes I could see the RGB, but I now realise it wasn't very bright! 😃

    PCSPECIALIST Cleaning Day!

    This morning I realised I hadn't cleaned my machine in a long time - maybe 3 months or so. I was more than a little shocked when I opened up the front! :eek: I'm surprised I could see any RGB at all to be honest!! The PSU filter on the 220T was doing it's job also it seems. We have hard...

    PCSPECIALIST Dream Build for Flight Sim and photo editing.

    Agree with @Bigfoot above. I have 32GB of RAM and have so far been unable to break it with some rather crazy experiments involving both Lightroom and Photoshop at the same time - mostly pointlessly big photomerges and exports and so on. Lightroom is the Hungry Horace of the two - it basically...

    PCSPECIALIST New to the Forum… and the World.

    Fantastic Mr Cooper! Isn't Nature an amazing thing!!! When you put the pictures together the resemblance is uncanny don't you think? I hope Mrs Cables is doing and feeling well sir! All the very best to you three! Oh, forgot the cats actually - you five then I guess it is..... (y) (y)

    No, you’re thinking of Screen Off mode....

    PCSPECIALIST dark mode for website forum?

    I had previously been using the Night Light feature in Windows 10 to take the edge of the screen in the evenings - which is nice in itself - but this is exactly what I was after.

    PCSPECIALIST dark mode for website forum?

    OMG you are a life saver! Almost all my themes are dark - but Firefox remains the solitary bright light hurting my eyes in the evening..... I'm looking this one up now. (y)

    PCSPECIALIST One-liners

    😃 That reminds me of 'incident' a while back - a Cabin Crew member was shouting loudly and deliberately at a deaf passenger while insisting they take the Braille Safety Information Card they were being offered. :unsure:

    PCSPECIALIST Pc randomly shuts down and then turn back on.

    100% yes. All good. All those temps seem fine too although the CPU might be a little high possibly - but it's always hard to tell as it depends on how it's actually being used rather than just what you are doing with the PC at the time. Nothing to worry about though. It would be worth checking...

    PCSPECIALIST Pc randomly shuts down and then turn back on.

    You almost certainly won't have changed anything that could cause your restarts to my mind without knowing it. Things like undervolting needs fairly specific action to achieve. Even more so when it comes to RAM overclocks and so on. In Ryzen Master the default profile should provide for BIOS...

    PCSPECIALIST One-liners

    Gary Larson is my all-time favourite cartoonist - I think it's time for some (more?) of his work to find it's way on here! First one is prudent from me:

    PCSPECIALIST Pc randomly shuts down and then turn back on.

    Your initial post suggests that the answer will be 'NO' to the following questions but it's worth asking anyway..... (And given the hassle I caused @ubuysa in the past by making him chase a squirrel up a tree for no reason, I would be happier to rule the following out for him too! :) ) Have...

    PCSPECIALIST Turning 30 - Pushing the boat out £4k(ish) build

    That does depend on who is already on the boat and whether you intend to join them after it's pushed I would think - I can think of a few family members who I would 'cast-away' quite happily - even if I got short unexepcted swim for my troubles! 😃
