[QUOTE=jaybuz;37447771]In Chrome you open the image on it's own and then in the Print dropdown "Save as PDF" is available but that may be what you were talking about already. There is no easier way.[/QUOTE] What about saving it as a .cbz or .cbr?

What? cbz and cbr are simply rar and zip files which have numbered pictures inside. (Comic Book Rar, Comic Book Zip)

Are mobile versions of graphics cards weaker than their bigger counterpart? Example, 680m vs 680.

Should I get a 2nd hand (but apparently hardly used) 6850 for £80?

[QUOTE=Floatation;37464920]Are mobile versions of graphics cards weaker than their bigger counterpart? Example, 680m vs 680.[/QUOTE] significantly, laptops need the drastically lower power consumption and heat output

So I'm ordering a 660 ti tomorrow but I don't know which one to get. I was thinking about getting the MSI 2gb one, but I rather get another persons opinion.

[QUOTE=Floatation;37464920]Are mobile versions of graphics cards weaker than their bigger counterpart? Example, 680m vs 680.[/QUOTE] a 680m might only be as powerful as a desktop 660/Ti

Suddenly all my youtube videos stops buffer at 50% of the video and I can start them again when it comes half thru the video. I've tried to reinstall firefox and flashplayer. Tried HTML5 but then the videos wont play at all. It works with flash and html5 in chrome. It started to bug a bit after I inactivated java because of the news about the exploit thing, can it be something with java that fucks up? Sorry for the spelling, I should really sleep.

[QUOTE=SataniX;37479500] Flash and Firefox just shit on each other.[/QUOTE] Absolutely agreed. I have heard of a replacement for Flash in Youtube. Like an extension for Firefox, not the HTML5 thing. Because HTML5 really crapped itself all the time.

What's the difference between all these 660Ti's ones an AMP edition or something, ones EVGA and one has borderlands oh god what am I doing

[QUOTE=BeAR!);37480484]I recently bought a GTX 670, but I have lines going up and down my screen in some games I play. It isn't the heat as it peaks at 55c ingame. The lines are very faint but still pretty annoying. It's only in a few games like Guild Wars 2, ArmA 2 and Sniper Elite V2. The rest seem fine, Skyrim is ok amongst others. I have upgraded and downgraded drivers, not sure why to try next as I've not got another PC to put it in. There is the model; [url]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Palit-GeForce-Graphics-Architecture-Surround/dp/B00822ZZS0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1346417787&sr=8-1[/url][/QUOTE] Is it something to do with Vsync? Don't take my word for it, I'm probably miles off but I like helping :downs:

Where can I find a cheap stylus that will work with a Wacom bamboo? Wacom really take the piss with their stylus pricing, paired with how fucking flimsy they are.

Oh and sorry to spam the thread I'm not going to buy this, but I can't tell if it's the deal of the century or a piece of shit [url]http://www.amazon.co.uk/750w-Gold-Silent-Power-Supply/dp/B0016ZUE3Q/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1346427117&sr=8-14[/url] any opinions? I really need a cheapo 750w PSU and the price of this is amazing

Yeah its a piece of shit. [editline]31st August 2012[/editline] Here is the cheapest 750w I would recommend [url]http://www.scan.co.uk/products/750w-corsair-builder-series-cx-85-eff-80-plus-bronze-sli-crossfire-eps-12v-quiet-fan-atx-v231-psu[/url]

Is there a program that tells you what programs are starting up when your PC boots up, and sets a timer when your PC is ready to actually use? I heard Soluto does this, but I'm unsure about it since it caused problems for my grandpa's PC (And before you even go there, he has Windows 7 and I have Vista)

A 600w will run an i5 and a 660ti, but if you want to SLI you'll want at least 700.

[URL]http://www.ebuyer.com/271798-corsair-430w-v2-cx-series-psu-cmpsu-430cxv2uk[/URL] 430w is plenty for you, you can upgrade when you go SLI to a 600/650w, or there are lots of 400-500w power supplies from good brands in the £30-40 price range, OCZ, Antec, Be Quiet!, Corsair, take your pick.

CIT? No.

Looks like I'll get the 430w I think for the first and only time in my life, I can say Thank you David Tennant for your PSU advice

i'm having a really hard time enabling my new video card. I tried disabling my integrated card and when I plug my monitor into the card it doesn't work. My monitor just displays a black screen. I went into the BIOS and changed the video thing to PCI-E and still no luck

wth my laptop isn't prompting for my password anymore. possible virus? Windows says it has one, but it boots straight to my account, and logoff and lock do nothing. [editline]31st August 2012[/editline] i'm a dumb, forgot to restart

How much years do you guys think my Geforce 9800GT will last/should be replaced?

[QUOTE=Ol' Pie;37485884]How much years do you guys think my Geforce 9800GT will last/should be replaced?[/QUOTE] I just upgraded mine today, depends what you're doing/playing
