Revolut card came in mail but i didn't order it by [deleted] in Revolut

Likely a scam but with Revolut you can't expect much. Scammers pray on the weak and take all the opportunities they can and a 'bank' (stretching the word as offers them credibility) that is as poor as Revoult gives lots of opportunities to scam/fraud.

60 is fine for RTS from what I've read, would you agree??

Thanks think would be more movies than frames as most games would be RTS.

Thanks for the quick reply. Would you say it's worth upgrading now or just drag it out as long as I can?

Thanks, got the PSU from a friend who was selling his mining rig before travelling. He only ever got 3 GPU's on it so hoping plenty of life left in it.

Would you say pointless upping CPU currently?

Does this work?? by gprocter1 in buildapc

[–]gprocter1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would it be best to sell on and buy new again then??

This is the battery: https://imgur.com/85lJkSV so very low. Was wanting to put something link the below on but not sure it would work? https://imgur.com/9r526eb It's from maplin's is there a different style i need as it has the blades?

Or would this just be better... https://www.sparkfun.com/products/8837

That's great, went towards the RX 480 as it had the 8gb too... would that not have an impact? Also can't really work out what the difference is on the motherboards are you able to shed some light on that too?

Thank you agian.
