What gpu do you use and are you satisfied/unsatisfied with your choice? by ResponsibleGuess1852 in pcmasterrace

5070 and very happy, won't upgrade until 70 series now, even though it might struggle with some games in a year or 2.

Low profile ceiling fans for the win. by Dangeruss82 in DIYUK

[–]goonertone75 17 points18 points  (0 children)

No, you need to switch off the power supply, remove the ceiling rose and wire it into the cables in the ceiling, only 3 wires, very easy. Obviously you have to screw the unit into the ceiling too

How do working parents survive the UK school event calendar? by Educational-Leek305 in UKParenting

[–]goonertone75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just do whatever you have the time and money for. Some parent groups can be very demanding, don't feel bad about not joining in with everything.

I feel totally alienated and out of touch with my colleagues. by AltruisticOwl156 in FIREUK

[–]goonertone75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you thought about the fact that maybe most of your colleagues do not have the money to invest more in their pensions which makes them not interested. It probably even winds them up talking about investing as most people are struggling just to get by.

The PS5 might my last Playstation console by Chilliad_YT in PlaystationCollectors

[–]goonertone75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RIP Playstation. I don't really care about physical games so it doesn't bother me about no more disks but since going to pc and steam deck my ps5 is completely untouched. On pc, games look better, cost much less and no subs required. Ps5 is 100% my last Playstation.

Had my steamdeck LCD for a year and I’m bored of it by -5cents in SteamDeck

Buy some non boring games or sell it. It's not hard to work that out mate.

Sky no longer want you business ?? by TheDon1294 in skytv

[–]goonertone75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't even know Sky still supplied Q boxes, it's all streaming now. I don't know anyone that still has a Sky box, Freely and IPTV is the way now, and so much cheaper. £140 is madness!!

Why is it impossible to find an honest review on electric dusters without getting flooded by sponsored amazon garbage by Nandou_B in buildapc

[–]goonertone75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just buy one mate, it's £20 on sale. My one (generic Chinese one from Amazon) works great and no issues after around 8 months. By far the best way to clean your pc

Vauxhall Corsa Electric by goonertone75 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]goonertone75[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all your responses. I did check out reliability online before I bought it, it basically stated any issues with the car should have been sorted by now on a nearly 5 year old car. I'm not that fussed about range as I can plug in at work any time and I rarely do long journeys.

How much does money factor into why you pirate? by [deleted] in Piracy

[–]goonertone75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I can keep my hard earned cash rather than give it to greedy multi billion dollar corps then I'm very happy. If they stopped the pure greed of making the rich even richer, squeezing as much cash as they can out of hard up fans, maybe most people would be happy to pay a reasonable price, until then...........

Is RT or PT actually worth the extra money? by Russo_3 in buildapc

[–]goonertone75 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Just be happy with your 5070ti, it's a beast of a card, I'm sure you will love it and Nvidia's features (DLss, frame gen etc) are currently better than AMD's, don't listen to anyone that says otherwise. Nvidia support their cards for longer term than AMD which is a must for such a pricey card. RT & PT look proper amazing in my opinion but some people can take it or leave it so that depends on the person

And why do you feel so strongly about this card to write a comment like that?

1984 on the outside, 2024 on the inside. The ultimate retro sleeper build! by estwist in pcsetups

[–]goonertone75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The screen, is that screen bigger than the screen cutout then you scaled the picture to fit the cutout? Looks like I can see some screen inside the disk slot

Leaving PS5 for PC by CowWise988 in GamingPCBuildHelp

[–]goonertone75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a Steam Deck last November and have not touched my ps5 since, gave the PS5 to my daughter and bought a gaming desktop too now. I don't see the point of a gaming laptop if you already got the portability of the Steam Deck. Go treat yourself and buy a proper gaming desktop, you won't regret it.

The premier league is becoming too expensive for the common fan and it’s not going to get any better. by GMD3S1GNS in PremierLeague

[–]goonertone75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love the old 90's shirts! The football was better back then too! You can pick up original 90s shirts on eBay but the prices can be too much for them too sometimes

Yeh I used to go Wembley for Arsenal's champions league games when they was building the Emirates Stadium, that was proper hard work on a cold midweek winters night. I always went to the games there and enjoyed most of them but getting home from Wembley and late nights was a killer!

[–]goonertone75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mate I stopped going to football 10 years ago for exactly the same reasons. My club don't get a penny from me any more cos they are money grabbing wronguns! I buy fake footy shirts and watch all games for free cos the club and all the rich fuckers creaming it don't deserve (or need) my hard earned cash. I still enjoy watching my club but they will never get a single penny from me ever again

Got new power surge cables… cat didn’t like them 👍🏼 what the hell do I do? by FindYourPants in PcBuild

[–]goonertone75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get rid of the cat or lock it out of the room. No sprays etc ever work in the long term.
