    PC Game Media

    I listed some old game disks in the freebie thread before I throw them out/recycle them. They were all before the time of your cd keys getting linked to an online account. I also have some other games were the keys are linked to my accounts (Origin and Battle.net) so the keys are no longer...

    The [H]ardForum Perpetual Freebies Thread

    Doing some cleaning and found a bunch of older games. I know some people out there like collecting this stuff. Just the cases, case inserts (with CD keys) and disks, I don't have any of the manuals or boxes. Please correct me if I'm wrong but I believe all these games were before you linked your...

    What are you using to secure erase sata SSDs?

    Doesn't work with Sata drives, the older Intel toolbox told me it couldn't secure erase on win8/10/11. I finally found Adata SSD Toolbox would let me secure erase it, forgot I had it installed since I removed the Adata SSD a while ago.

    What are you using to secure erase sata SSDs?

    I have several Intel 320 sata SSDs I'm trying to secure erase so I can give them away instead of throwing them in the trash. I tried a bootable USB with DOS and HDDerase, the software will start but then freeze after I get past the initial disclosures. I tried Partedmagic on USB but it won't...

    TeamGroup 2TB NVMe TLC w/ DRAM $80

    I'm tempted to return the Intel 670p now. It's only $7 more and I haven't even opened the Intel drive yet.

    US’s largest pipeline crippled by cyber attack

    Last time there was a possiblility of a hurricane where I live (Florida) I saw a guy in a pickup pumping gas into a couple of 50-60 gallon garbage cans. Somebody had already called the cops but they werent there yet and I didn't stick around to see how it turned out.

    PC noise level; need to make this quieter

    Are you using custom fan curves? If you are just using default or preset fan curves they can be extremely noisy. I don't have any of my fans spin up more than 1600rpm unless my temps hit 90C which should never happen (depends on your CPU). I have them idle around 600 so they are dead quiet.

    Kraken x73 aio 360 fan noise and control vs 2016 thermaltake Riing 360, etc

    You should be able to set a 4 point fan curve directly in the BIOS as well if you wanted to. Also since they are 3-pin fans make sure they are set to DC mode and not PWM. According to MSI the CPU_FAN1 and PUMP_FAN1 are default PWM and all the SYS_FAN are default DC. EDIT: According to NZXT they...

    Kraken x73 aio 360 fan noise and control vs 2016 thermaltake Riing 360, etc

    You can install MSI Dragon Untitly for fan control, it will give you 4 points you can adjust. You should be able to have the fans run around 500-600 rpm at idle temps, you will have to play with the fan speed control to figure out what % that speed would be. Then set that % for anything under...

    Kraken x73 aio 360 fan noise and control vs 2016 thermaltake Riing 360, etc

    Older models the fans connected the the Kraken unit and were controlled with CAM. In the new model that isn't the case. You connect the fans to your MB and have to use your MB's fan control or some other compatible software while also having to use CAM to control the pump. You can avoid all...

    Control Case Fans via GPU temps

    The reason all the guides are years old is because speedfan was abandoned a while ago and doesn't work on most newer stuff. I was able to get it to work on my Z170, but most anti-cheat software will flag it and make you disable it to play games. I ended up buying Argus Monitor and have been...
