    Anyone know how to automatically add video to a iPad or iPhone when at home ?

    Guess it depends on what kind of videos you are looking to add to your phone. Plex is something that will transcode videos to lower quality/size files for local storage on a mobile device. You can also stream them if you want to do that. Might require you to actually open up the Plex app on...

    Queries for a New Case

    I would probably say that most of your name brand cases(Corsair, Fractal, Lian Li, Phanteks, etc.) have about the same quality. Are any of the mainstream companies as good as Lian Li of old, not really, but there are still some boutique manufacturers out there that are, but you'll pay for it...

    100% agree. Did a small OC and just hit 20783 on Time Spy... Thanks again for trying to help!

    EVGA 3080ti XC3 Ultra Core Clock Issue

    Well I officially deserve the title of PEBCAK. I feel like the biggest dummy..... As you can clearly see in the pictures, the power and temp sliders are all the way to the left. Thus severely hampering my GPU..... Turned them all the way back up and viola, get my highest score in Time...

    EVGA 3080ti XC3 Ultra Core Clock Issue

    Guess I didn't understand there's a calculation to get the 9500MHz. I looked but cant find how those numbers are the same "9500mhz and 19gbps effective gddr6X" So if someone has something that would be great. Nevermind, I found the calculations and get it now. Link for anyone else that wants...

    EVGA 3080ti XC3 Ultra Core Clock Issue

    Yes it was working in Windows 11 before. This is a new build that's been together for about a month now and it was a fresh install of Win 11. Unless there's something with the newest drivers causing the issue, but I would imagine there would be more people asking about it.

    EVGA 3080ti XC3 Ultra Core Clock Issue

    My EVGA 3080ti XC3 Ultra is no longer boosting up to normal clock frequencies. No matter the game, benchmark, stress test, the gpu clock stays at 210MHz. Within Precision or MSI Afterburner I can manually apply a 1000MHz "Overclock" and the core clock will go up to 1200MHz. Also the memory is...

    How to repair a scratch

    Good to know for black cases, but I don't think it would be good for his silver one. Assumption on my part, so if I am wrong, happy to be corrected as I have never used the stuff. From Brownell's "Ideal for touching up black-anodized aluminum." Even better. Add more scratches and a sticker...

    How to repair a scratch

    I used a brushed aluminum vinyl to wrap a panel of a case when I was done modifying it. The sheen was slightly off, but you wouldn't have noticed it unless I told you.

    Cheapest way to control Corsair XD5 RGB?

    He needs a controller(CORSAIR Commander PRO/Lighting Node PRO) to hook the XD5 to be able have it interface with iCue. Since the pump/res doesn't come with the controller he'd have to buy one. So he's looking for the cheapest/easiest way to be able to control the RGB on the pump/res. I...

    Cheapest way to control Corsair XD5 RGB?

    I have converted standard 3 pin connections to Corsair specific connectors by making an adapter. I don't see why you couldn't go the other way. Corsair JST > 3 pin 5v. In fact they make adapters you can buy: Corsair 3-Pin or Corsair 4-Pin

    Time for a New Main Rig

    Are you planning on doing modifications to that chassis to accept a motherboard? The P200 Pedestal is an add-on for the W200 chassis and not designed to be a standalone case. Just trying to picture the end goal here :)

    How easy would it be to do?

    Hyperlink button(looks like a chain) is your best friend :) But looks like the original Xbox is only 74mm tall, and the smallest dimension on that case is 104mm. So It's not going to fit.

    Thanks for the feedback. Maybe option 1 with a display? lol Cables are made by Ensourced. Bought them back in 2016 and they've been rock solid.

    Build Aesthetic Help

    Looking for some help with the aesthetics of my next build. My main goal here is something that's minimalistic with the lack of RGB. Form over function is fine with me. My last build(2 PCs in one case) was a bit of a nightmare to deal with and was bigger than I needed(Lian Li D600 that I...

    FRACTAL MESHIFY 2 Top Filter

    If you are worried how it looks with light shining through those mobo holes you can always cover them with same tape. Might look aesthetically better to not have the light shining through. If your worried about dust coming into those holes, then tape would fix that too, or just make sure you...

    Difficult to find new case micro-ATX close to Silverstone SG10 or SG09

    Alphacool Radiator Version

    I would call around or email retailers to see if they have the older style logo in stock. I would imagine someone has to have the 420 XT45 V.2 with the blue logo. I checked with ModMyMods and Performance PCs, both of them had the blue logo in stock of the NexXxoS ST30 Full Copper X-Flow 280mm...

    Alphacool Radiator Version

    I honestly prefer the bland logo since it goes with my theme, but I get it. Your rad is also V.2 which offers the flush mount plugs, which is a nice addition. With it being a newer version I guess it makes sense it would have the "new" logo, but you'd think there would atleast be some pictures...

    Alphacool Radiator Version

    Yes that is my post. I have an email into them also, but with it being the weekend I'm not expecting anything until tomorrow. Box, instructions, everything included in the box look very legit, but realistically that's probably the cheapest/easiest thing to do when trying to dupe people. I...

    I did, shortly after the post. We'll see what they have to say. Just figured I would see it somewhere on the interwebs.... Found out they have a forum too, posted and will report back.

    Alphacool Radiator Version

    Working on a new custom loop and ordered up a couple of Alphacool NexXxoS ST30 Full Copper X-Flow 360mm Radiators. I got them in and they have a small grey logo on them rather than the big blue logo I was expecting and find in every single picture. Has anyone else seen these? Know if this is...

    WTB: Thermaltake Tsunami Dream drive rails

    Random but on topic-ish. Do you have the silver or the black version? I lost the little top hatch that covers the USB, headphone, microphone and Firewire(just dated this case). I'll take a look this afternoon when I get home. I "think" there is a system in there and pretty sure it has a IDE...

    WTB: Thermaltake Tsunami Dream drive rails

    Sounds like he is looking for the rails that go on either side of the drive that allow it to slide into the 5.25" drive bay. I too have one of these laying around, I can take a look.

    Those SAMAs look nice. Essentially a bigger version of the NR200 series.

    Micro-ATX case for a small server

    Assuming you are sticking with m-ATX since you are running the Node 804. Take a look at Jonsbo. They don't have the horizontal mobo orientation, but they do have the full size PSU and 3 expansion slots you want. Here's a Link to their mATX offerings.

    Difficult to find new case micro-ATX close to Silverstone SG10 or SG09

    Closest I have been able to find to the SG10 and SG09 layout is going to be from Jonsbo. Most of the cases have the PSU above the CPU slot, so a tower cooler is usually a no go. I wasn't sure what you meant by a "big top flow cooler". Jonsbo has some older models that don't have any tempered...

    small atx case

    The mesh is fine enough to catch quite a bit of it, but it's definitely not going to catch all of it. It's definitely uglier when it catches it on the outside of the case, I have one in white, vs catching it on a filter behind a panel. But as far as the smallest volume able to hold an ATX...

    small atx case

    Forgot about the new Meshroom S as long as you get the right parts you can do a full ATX in there.

    small atx case

    All the ones I was thinking about. Sliger Cerberus X also comes to mind, but they come with a bit heftier price tag($265 to start). I have also built in a Thermaltake Core G3. Definitely compact, could be placed on it's side, but requires an SFX psu. Might have to do some searching for it...

    Whats the best way to hide a htpc?

    Is it an actual wood burning fireplace or gas or maybe a gas insert(aka converted an older wood burning fireplace)? Guess it all depends on what's underneath that sheetrock. That Themaltake would look nice right above the beer fridge, centerpiece for that open area, and you could see it from...

    Whats the best way to hide a htpc?

    Do you know if the area above the fireplace is hollow? Might take a little doing but you could make a small hole in there to investigate. If it's open in there, then I would put the PC on the beer fridge or you could even extend the existing shelf to hold more liquor or have a nice little...

    WTB: EVGA FTW3 Shroud

    Already did. They said they did not have any extra parts for non warranty claims. Would assume with them being out of the GPU business they are holding onto just about everything for warranty claims. I suppose I can wait another 3 years when all the claims are gone and get one lol :p:p:p:p I...

    WTB: EVGA FTW3 Shroud

    Appreciate it, but they are different from what I can tell. The 3090ti is a 3.5 slot card and the 3070-3090 are all 2.75 slot cards. Everything else looks pretty similar, but there are a few nuances that make me think it would not work.
