    Thoughts on Intel power limits.

    Modern processors are designed to run as fast as they can for whatever given load thrown at them. AMD will floor it until 95°C, but those are generally not real world loads. Compiling or photo/video editing and multi-threaded apps will get up there but won't stay at the wall. Regardless with...

    current best air coolers

    They are all good deals when compared to Noctua, as long as they can handle the heat load. I like Thermalright as a company but dang they have a lot of very similar designs in the same relative space...

    Steam Client Update

    Playing Doom Eternal Ancient Gods 1 Holt Slayer Gate (getting my ass kicked [H]ard), the area prior to the red box is me playing on a 7950x RTX4070OC, I found it interesting when I shut the game down the fans kicking up to find steam update running very high.

    Anyone make the switch from 5800X3D to 7800X3D?

    I doubled my core count 5800x to 7950x, for no good reason other than to build something. My daughter got my old build...

    New Silverstone FT02

    Torrent is pretty capable. I have a 150mm Watercool pump/res combo that will locate the bottom end of the pump above the video card, with front 45mm thicc rad the Torrent will fit 14in+. I also have an FT02 in for sale/trade.

    Does anyone use Armoury Crate on their ASUS motherboard desktop?

    No, RGB control is the only reason anyone would need its' contents and that isn't worth the trouble. I shut off Armory Crate in the BIOS...

    Suggestions on new pump/res combo

    Of the two combos I have, I like the Heatkiller better but it isn't installed yet. The Alphacool is a tick tall for my rig, I went with the Heatkiller 150mm to make clearance for a longer video card down the road...

    FS: Silverstone FT02 Black w/window

    FS: A lovingly used Silverstone FT02. Purchased new from NewEgg in 2010 and in use as my main until 2022. The front USB was updated to USB2.0 (maybe USB 3.0) when that came out, otherwise stock and includes all the drive sleds. $75 plus actual shipping CONUS. I have the original box as well...

    Recommend me a great-sounding 2.1 speaker system for PC?

    My main is a stereo configured 2003 set of Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 5.1 I've kept alive by sending them off for repair (more than once). My spare set is the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 BT that I use daily as a workout system BT with my phone. Not audiophile but they sound pretty decent especially the 2.1...

    I have 6000mhz ddr5 ram. How do I run it at 6400 or say 6600mhz? Asus X670-P wifi motherboard

    I believe those are all auto settings, I think buildzoid left those on auto in the tuning video. I find it odd read speeds are lower than write.

    NVME causing HDD light to not blink

    My case doesn't have one either, I connected a white LED which hangs out down by the panel header. I'd be looking into the BIOS for a setting, the 990 Pro NVME I have as primary drives my LED on an ASUS x670E-E. *EDIT I see you have a MB that predates NVME so you might be SOL unless it's in a...

    I have 6000mhz ddr5 ram. How do I run it at 6400 or say 6600mhz? Asus X670-P wifi motherboard

    Buildzoid in that video said the sweet spot is DDR at 6000, fclk set to 2033. Attached are mine. For Hynix...
