i eat a fair bit i started at 76kg in august now im around 83kg im putting on size just not getting that muscular look so i thought maybe i should ditch the low rep stuff and go high rep??
 
You're probably putting on fat as well as muscle. Can't have the best of both worlds (bulking and dropping body fat doesn't work)

Stick with the lower rep stuff (5s are good) and make sure you are getting stronger, if not, your not doing it properly.

Also getting muscular doesn't happen over night or even months. You have to stick with it for years.

^^^^Sound advice right here^^^^

Plus keep eating lots.
 
At your current strength level you could quite easily transition to something like 5/3/1 and do the Big But Boring assistance template. If you don't get big and strong off that program you are doing something very wrong.
