    so I'm using a PCIe 16x 4xNVMe adapter. How do I verify that each SSD is actually getting 4x PCIe?

    As above. I got myself one of these as I need more NVMe slots than what's available in my board. Thanks in advance for the assistance. (image is for reference only. but mine is similar)

    tips on inserting rigid tubes into fittings securely

    things I've tried 2 methods to insert the tube (in both instances, the fitting/tube/oring has been lube with dishwashing liquid): see pic1. in this case, I cannot twist the locking cap all the way. I feel it needs another full turn and a half (maybe 2 full turns) before it goes all the way. It...

    suggestions on how to separate a heatsink from an nvme drive

    Using thermaltake liquid concentrate with distilled water: feedback please

    As above. This is really available compared to other brands. The product page does say to only use with the thermaltake "water" but this could be the company trying to steer customers to use their other products. https://www.thermaltake.com/tt-premium-concentrate-yellow-4-bottle-pack.html Thanks

    Looking for feedback: 6900xt vs 3080

    I don't play FPS games (or recent AAA games) only because my 980ti can't play them in ultra/max settings. I do play Total War Warhammer2 which can look ok/bearable in medium settings. but ultra settings and it'll be quite slow. I'm guessing Warhammer3 will make it even slower.

    Looking for feedback: 6900xt vs 3080

    Some info: the 6900xt is the aorus waterforce edition (seems one of the highest clocked for this series). Looking at the clocks and comparing it against the Asrock Formula OC and Powercolor Red Devil Ultimate, this Gigabyte board is most likely an XTXH the 3080 is from Zotac and it seems it's...
