This is the only coolant I've used and I've been very pleased with it in a couple of different setups. My...
I think the only other thing worth trying is using a slight negative offset on each ccd. Like -15 on ccd0 and -10 on ccd1. Your mileage may vary.
A couple years ago, I got into running that app which calculated per core offsets. I don't think it was worth it in the end. I now have a couple...
Mini non-scientific review:
I got the new power supply installed yesterday. I actually needed all but two cables, the 12VHPWR and one of the PCI-E VGA cables. My 3090 takes 3 PCI-Express cables, so I used the cables that only have one connector on the end. There is a 4th cable that has a...
I think making this thread helped me make up my mind and your post is right on. I have the FSP on the way.
I did look at the Shift line pretty carefully. My computer is currently in a Praxis WetbenchSX and there is a middle support that only gives you about an inch of space on the side of the...
I'm building my daughter a parts PC and I decided to move my 850 watt Seasonic Prime GX over to her machine and get a new one for myself. See my sig for my machine (5950X with PBO and a 3090 with two DDC pumps and tons of fans). It is capable of pulling in the upper 700 watt range, so I figure...
I just installed this on a test bench and it worked pretty easily. The only issue I see is with getting both screws on the coldplate to bracket mount started. You have to get a couple of turns on one before pressing down hard on the other side to get the other started. Other than that, piece...
I'm building a computer for my daughter in my old Lian Li PC-011 Dynamic and it's getting either a 3900X or my semi- broken 5950X that requires very specific PBO settings to run at stock performance. I had a 45mm thick Corsair(Hardware Labs) radiator in the top of that, so I should have no...
Remember all the flooding in Malaysia about 10 or 15 years ago that was supposed to completely halt hard drive production? I actually bought some extras to have just in case and ended up later selling them for cost because I didn't actually need them and wanted the money for something else...
I thought about upgrading to the Vertex 3.0 unit, but never did it. I'm running a 5950x with PBO and an Asus Strix 3090 with a Seasonic Prime Gold 850 watt. I'm also pushing two DDC water pumps and 18 fans on a giant external radiator. Crossing my fingers.
Gamers Nexus just tested the Arctic Freezer III and says it's the best sound normalized cooler. https://youtu.be/zfffNRTOZCc?feature=shared I think the new design will also be easier to fit to pretty much any motherboard. It has the same performance as the EK Elite 360, but 13 dB quieter with...
Man, I have an Asus Strix 3090 that I bought here in November 2022 that came with an EK waterblock installed for I think $750. Like you though, I haven't had the time to really put it to good use. It also has a lot of coil whine. I'd love a 4090 just to have it, but I just can't justify the...
Unfortunately, Dragon Age is one of the few games where I have completed all games in the series and I've played DA Origins through several times. I'll definitely play at least the next Dragon Age game and see where to go from there.
5950x at newegg For the record, you can get a 5950x NIB from newegg for $379.00. Same price at amazon as well. That's less than most of the used stuff out there.
My 5950x is screwed and only runs right with PBO tweaked. I have a couple of cores that need + voltage when your run some of those core analysis apps. If I just let it run at stock, it runs at a lower all core clock speed than my 3900x does. However, with PBO, it runs at similar speeds and...
I "upgraded" from a 3080 10GB to a 3090 in November 2022. I got the 3090 Asus Strix variant with EK Vector Waterblock from a member here for $775. I really haven't used the horsepower and there's not a huge jump for the games I play. I just thought it was too good of a deal to pass up as I...
Not like amazon is next day or two days on almost anything anymore. At the beginning of December, almost everything I was buying was showing me a delivery date of 7 to 8 days out, with "Prime" shipping.
I wanted to try out FUBO, but our main TV is run through a PS5 and FUBO doesn't work with it last I checked. When I was blindsided by the YouTube "Red" 50% increase this past year, I really though about canceling. Then I watched youtube on someone else's computer and it was completely...
Wow, I haven't had regular cable in so long, I've lost touch with pricing. I get ripped off by youtube tv just so I can watch college sports. Went from 45 to almost 75 in like 3 years. Youtube red went up tremendously as well.
Nice, the last iteration of my rig, I had all my stuff in an o11D, (non-evo), with a 360 on the top, a 240 in the back, and a thin 240 mounted in a custom front panel from Performance PCs. It was a real pain to set up. Yours looks much nicer.
Lately, the market has shown that you are better off buying the halo cards when they are first released, so that you get your money's worth out of them. Think of the difference between buying the 4090 at MSRP when they launched vs. now. That said, there was a good argument for buying AMD...
I went into a CompUSA once many years ago in Connecticut when we were visiting my wife's family for Christmas. They had an Athlon 64 3200+ in the display case for almost $100 more than I paid for one at Newegg a year before. I wonder if that had anything to do with their demise.

Thanks. Actually though, the review on fps review is on a drive with the silicon motion controller, which is a different drive. However, the site I got this link from said the drive was using Phison E12, which appears to be what the originals used. But, more reviews on amazon show that now...
Teamgroup MP34 4TB Gen3 NVME with Phison E12 controller and 3D TLC NAND with SLC DRAM
Update:
No longer getting one of these. Teamgroup plays musical chairs with the controller chip and don't disclose which one they are using at any given time. Thanks to Armenius for the heads up.
