Cheers all, that's helpful. I guess I should probably go and test some out, I didn't think of that, the clue is in title of the thread!

Brill, thanks. I might give them a go then, I'm happy with good enough. I'm intrigued as to how they sound. I'm guessing an average earbud would generally sound better?

Can anyone recommend some cheap and cheerful but half decent earbuds for running?
What's up with the bone conducting things, any good? I'm dubious

Does anyone have any experience with Boulies chairs? They see good value and are reviewed positively. I'm looking at the EP200 specifically.

Fohn clothing is a wiggle brand right? I'm trying to track down a replacement supercell 3l jacket. Wiggle only have the blue at full price, was after the green. I guess it's uncertain whether there will be more stock. It was pretty much my favourite jacket in a long time, perfect fit for me until my mates dog shredded it to pieces, long story.

Seems there's a bit of a Dayz revival going on. My son is rinsing it on PS4, never thought he'd have the patience tbh and I've started playing again on pc since getting a capable graphics card. Sounds like the dev team has expanded again too, great the game has survived some very rocky times.
I've found a great PVE server, mostly just bumbling around trading posts and doing the occasional quest against AIs. I'm too old and incompetent for the stress of PVP.

Capture One express is sadly being discontinued from end of Jan. It sounds like your catalogs won't be accessible from this point so maybe some action is required before then.
Ahhh back to the search

Thanks for all the input, after lots of tinkering I think you're all right, it's most probably the CPU. Games are actually running completely fine for my casual needs and if I didn't have an FPS counter in the top corner I'd probably be none the wiser. I've waited so long for a new GPU though, I was kind of trying out games as a benchmark really, to see if everything was in order, and knowing it's not reaching it's full potential is a little annoying.
So essentially it's fine for now. I think I'll probably upgrade my CPU as a stop gap, it can probably be done for £150/£180? Should give me another year or so. I knew I would be cutting it close with the PSU so I'll upgrade that too at some point in preparation for a switch over to AM5 or whatever the thing is when the time comes.
I need a PS5 regardless, damn kids :)
Regal's build is sweet!

I've finally replaced my decade old GTS 450 with an AMD 6700XT and so far I'm a little underwhelmed. Whilst everything is working fine I was expecting a little more. I bought this for work and just general performance really. I definitely didn't buy it to play games, but lets just say I did want to play a game. Warzone is giving me 50 to 70 FPS on just high settings at 1080p upscaled, that doesn't seem right to me.
I've done a load of house keeping, installed the drivers nicely after using DDU, updated chipset drivers and bios. Could it be my CPU causing a bottleneck? (I don't exactly know what that means). There's also a dual bios switch on the GPU but I left that as it came.

I finally sorted some space to setup my decks only to find one of the pitch controls is completely knackered. I'm guessing years stored and probably a bit of dampness has caused some corrosion. The other deck seems completely fine.
They're Gemini PT2000s, pretty decent decks, probably as close to 1200s as you could get at the time (always regretted not finding the extra for 1200s though). Looking back on this thread it seems a service and new pitch fader may be around £180, probably more than the deck is worth and would parts even be available for these? Any suggestions?
If things start looking pricey I'm thinking maybe I get a digital all in one and keep my good deck for the vinyl.
