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.
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...
System has been up and stable for a while, I dug around a bit and ran across some videos regarding Buildzoid's secondary timings and set those. My question is is CLDO VDDP a static or dynamic setting? ASUS had it set to 1.141, I've lowered it to 1.0, I've seen others reference .9V as the...
This is a functional down and dirty build using a Fractal Torrent, 7950X, ASUS X670E-E, AM5 Heatkiller, 180x360 Alphacool Rad and their Aurora D5 250mm pump/combo. Preliminary perf attached...
This is probably asking a lot, but does anyone know if the adapter supplied by Intel (in retail SSD package) or SilverStones 3.5" adapter will correctly align the SATA and power connecters so that the SSD can be used with a backplane in a SuperMicro removable tray? My case is a CSE-733T and my...
Is anyone else experiencing the fan randomly ramping up, then down on this heatpipe cooled card? It's just kind of odd why it would ramp up so high then down so fast while playing Fallout3. ATI 8.12 is the driver version, fan speed not reported correctly in CCC. No other issues except maybe some...
I'm looking for a comparable alternative for games and music. Sound card is a X-Fi Titanium Pro. I've been looking at Polk's RM705 package (sub included) and a Yamaha RX-V463 5.1 receiver. The two seem to exist in a similar class of audio. Connection would be via DTS Toslink (Vista is required...
I ran an XP90 / panaflo FBA09A12H-1BX combo with much success on an FX60 for a few years. That processor was rated at 110W, and the cooling solution controlled by Qfan on an A8N-E performed very well with adequate cooling / minimal noise.
Today I'm cooling an E8600 with the XP90 on a P5E64 WS...
