Ojodu berger, Lagos.

I know about the computer village in Ikeja. I've never been in Lagos long enough to know my way round but hope it's close enough to you.

thank you bro...but i think i have a problem locating the settings.exe thanks for ur time

Right click on your PES2015 shortcut and select properties. Click on open file location and you should find setting.exe i there. I've used google as an example only. I'm away from my gaming rig at the moment.

Attach a screenshot of it when you run the settings exec file.

thanks bro, I successfully opened and dusted it. The real ish is where to get thermal paste to replace the wiped one on the heat sink and the cost price. I coupled it back and tried putting it on, it worked buh the fan became so loud that the game had to shut down itself. Have you tried any other substitute? (Is toothpaste cool). Hope to hear your professional advice.

I've tried toothpaste (colgate mint paste not the gel version) and petroleum jelly before with pretty good results. However it is not recommended for long-term use . I used 75% toothpaste and 25% vaseline as that seemed to gave the best test results..BUT THIS IS A TEMPORARY SOLUTION max 36HRS.

Get some proper thermal paste asap. Where are you based?

RAM:4.OO GB (1.89 Gb usable)
system type:32 bit operating system, x64 based processor.. Window8 pro.
Bro thanks abeg no vex say i never reply u

It appears that the framerate of pes 2015 on your your laptop is really low (the N2820 celeron is a low spec CPU). What you have to do is lower your graphic settings to improve the framerate. You'll find the settings.exe file in the game directory. There you can lower the graphic settings.

I'll post some pictures later if you have trouble finding it/ configuring it. Let us know how you get on.

I bet you don't stay in Nigeria..there is no such thing as master race out here. The power situation is a real buzz kill. Nice rig tho. Exactly what i need but can't afford right now.
You forgot to add monitor?

monitor LG 34UM57

I'm usually between Ghana/SA and Nigeria.. but my rig is in Nigeria

Exactly. Even if i was dat boxed up, i'll go with his setup and scrap out the water cooling system and go for a cheaper but effective cooling solution and save myself like 350-400k....

Water cooling has it's benefits too...components longevity increases when run cooler, plus liquid cooling means you can run the fans at lower rpms and achieve less noise with much better cooling capacity than air especially for high end GPU as they usually have a high TDP. The 290X for examples outputs over 250W...that's a lot of heat.

Nice rig btw. Besides, why AMD?? Why not go for Nvidia?? A 980 sli offers better than ur 290x crossfire IMO!!

Price!! AMD cheaper than Nvidia. The 980Ti is a monster and at the time I purchased the 290x the 980ti cost twice as much. It was a no brainer to keep costs low while still getting very good performance. AMD gpus are the bang-for-buck solution.

980ti and 290x is not a fair comparison. the 290x can be compared to the GTX 970...even the AMD Fury X struggles to keep up with the 980TI

I simply can't spend that because I can't afford it, before I make that level of commitment, I've to have a budget set & met. Plus, being in the UK certainly doesn't make it cheap.

I didn't feel it though because I bought the part bit by bit over a year, actually 17-19 months to get the parts together. Custom building makes keeping to a budget very difficult (but possible if you know how to go about customisation from the onset) I fully customised it - before and after pics

Where about are you based?

Well considering there are very few female gamers in Nigeria. And i can bet not a single one of dem would be willing to spend 600k on a gaming rig. I'm sure not even cao can spend dat much on building a rig if she wanted to....right?? smiley

Only guys are crazy enough to build something like dat and spend dat amount on a PC without even looking back. Am i wrong??


Hahaa, interesting rationale....You aren't wrong though. Only cost that much as I wanted close to the best...there are far more cheaper options to liquid cool.

can u state ur location, whr u got d pieces and hw much each of them cost?

I'm based in Abuja and had every item from UK & Germany when family members went overseas so it took me over a year to get the parts togeter and start building.

Cost-wise in the region of #600,000

are you in nigeria with thiss beast?

Yes o..took me over a year to get the parts together before building..liquid cooling is very good when the ambient temps are high (sometimes the ac is off)

I hearby unveil my envy for you.. Finally a racing user on here...with a racing game I still dream to own(until I can buy a racing wheel , thrustmaster tx to be specific).

Lol@ unveil....I'd love to own a racing wheel but can't justify buying one. I use a PS4 controller for racing on my PC and the analogue sticks do just fine. I hear thE Logitech G29 (G27) is the one to have.

Processor amd a8 7410 2. 2 ghz turbo 2.5 ghz quadcore

Dedicated video graphics 3 gb

Ram 6 gb


Windows 8.1

Price 130000 naira

Would this hp laptop run games like watchdogs and the witchers 3 fine. Pls give your verdict and reasons as well

It will run but you'd need to play at a very low graphic settings to get a decent playable frame rate.

i tried to open it some time ago but got discouraged seeing the delicate nature of it. You think there's less risk of damaging the interior?

To lower the risk of damage use a compressed air can.

I greet una o! Mighty men!
I'm seriously having a bad experience with my ps3 console(fat) right nw.it turns off abruptly, blinking red light. It's been on for a while, it jst got worst last night, I can hardly complete an exhibition match on Fifa 16, talk less of trying an adventure game. I downloaded my games though. Please I need anybody with a possible lasting solution and if you've experienced such before, kindly share your thoughts on hw to go about it. I'm based in Lagos btw. Thanks y'all in anticipation.

Typically a overheating issue. Good starting point is giving it a good clean out (will need opening to clean out dust build up) and use in a well ventilated spot.
