    Computer help please

    No issues there, then. CPU is not throttling.

    Computer help please

    The two places to look first are the connection from your Beelink to the router, and the router to the internet. Both of these can introduce delays when watching streamed content such as Youtube, etc. You give us the speed of your router to internet connection, and at 62Mbps that should be...

    In the market for a TV

    I hope you find it a good telly. My aging Samsung is getting gradually worse, so I may well be buying an LG C1 at some point.

    Air Compressor

    I bought one of these from Amazon, specifically for fitting (and removing) grips: Reesibi Digital Tyre Inflator 230V 12V for Car 150PSI, Mains Tyre Inflator 240V DC AC dual power, Air Compressor with Car and Uk Plug, Toolkit £54.99. Does the job faily well. Can be powered by a cigarette plug...

    Having a shocker!

    Two days ago, I managed a nett 67. Nett 97 today--worst ever, I think. 10 golf balls went AWOL! Though the weather was iffy at times, and the wind had to be allowed for, it was all concentration issues that caused the rubbish shots. Went onto the course with a family issue on my mind, and was...

    In the market for a TV

    LG 55" OLED, either C1 or B1. Both released last year, so are discounted to shift ahead of the C2/B2 models turning up in a few weeks. C1 has slightly better sound, and better HDMI connectivity for games consoles, etc. Richersounds has the C1 at £1,199, but with a £110 discount code offer on...

    Electric trolley

    GoKart manual, 18 hole lithium battery (£400), was my choice last September. It's been really good. I recommend the bag for it -- extra £27 well spent.

    PXG UK Shipping

    Not too impressed with customer service at PXG UK. I ordered a set of 0211 irons after a custom fitting in early January, and was promised 5 or 6 weeks delivery. Having waited patiently for 6 weeks, I emailed the fitter -- no reply. A day later, I called PXG UK directly, and was promised an...

    Do you remember your first club comp and if so how did it go?

    I played my first club competition two months ago. A Stableford, with three other PPs -- all stalwarts of the Seniors section, with handicaps far lower than mine. It was also only my second time attempting 18 holes -- my club membership at that time only permitted 9 holes. I was, of course...

    Poll - What Irons do you play with?

    Good to hear. The PXGs are my first set of "real" irons, since I got hooked on this game 6 months ago. I'm really looking forward to finding out if I can play a little better with them, since I've been "fitted" to them...

    My First Trackman Session

    I've used a Trackman range twice, primarily for this purpose. I used the option to convert the distances recorded into equivalents for premium balls; the resulting carry and total yardage values have been very useful on the course. With my short irons, I consult my Garmin S12 watch for distance...

    Gokart mk2

    Deciding between manual and automatic was the hardest bit of the process. I decided to go for the manual, since this is my first power trolley, knowing that I can get it converted later on if I decide I'd rather have that feature. Does it really make much of a difference?

    Gokart mk2

    "I think it's a much nicer looking trolley than the mark 1 and would highly recommend it. " Thank you for the recommendation (and all the comments from everyone). After a recent back injury, I realised I needed to stop carrying my bag, and this thread helped me to find what I believe will be...
