    i7-7800x Delidding Catastrophe? Resoldering micro resistors?

    After wussing out on following through with the delidding of my i7-7800x (socket 2066), Saturday night I pulled out the delid tool that has sat in my desk drawer since August, and I gave it a go. I was nervous and very careful. I read several of the guides that I'd found online, and watched a...

    Dell M.2 NVMe PCIe adapters

    Does anyone know anything about either of these two Dell M.2 PCIe adapters? I am considering picking one of these up if I can confirm that I can stripe the m.2 nvme drives that i install in there in RAID0. The dual m.2 PCIe 3.0 x8 adapter appears to be part number(s): NTRCY 23PX6 JV70F The...

    LSI 9240-8i RAID0 vs X99 onboard RAID0

    I have an ASRock X99M Extreme4 along with 3x 256GB SSD in RAID0 that is currently attached to Dell PERC H310 (which is the same as a LSI 9240-8i). I am underwhelmed by its performance. Do any of you have experience with running RAID0 with the onboard X99 - I guess this would be intel's "Rapid...

    Why does my RAID0 SSD array have nearly double write speeds while in safemode?

    I cannot for the life of me figure out why this is occurring. I first thought that my PERC H310 (LSI 9240-8i rebadge) being in a slower PCIe 2.0 x4 host slot was my bottle neck so I then moved it to the PCIe 3.0 x8 slot. I still received the same results. Thinking that the slower processor on...

    Overclocking with liquid cooled GPUs.

    Hi, I have an Nvidia GTX 770 with a Heatkiller full coverage waterblock in my system. I never see this thing go over 65c and I was considering overclocking it. I have read up on the subject a bit, and it seems that most have difficulty keeping the temperatures down on their air cooled GPUs...

    Watercooled Single slot GPUs (de-soldering 2nd dvi port)

    Anyone out there successfully removed their 2nd DVI plug from an Nvidia GTX 7xx series card? Or a Radeon R9 290/290X card? I just ordered a heatkiller full coverage waterblock for my XFX Radeon R9 290. The 2nd DVI plug bothers me, and I very much wish that they'd just do either 6x...

    Playing with 802.11ad WiGig

    This Dell DW1601 card that they offered in some of their notebooks is half height, Mini PCIe combo card that it looks like Dell used for a wireless docking station of some sort. I just scored one of these DW1601 WiGig cards, as well as a Dell D5000 Wireless docking station that I presume dell...

    Laptop wi-fi card into USB3.0 port on my desktop? (MiniPCIe -> USB3.0 bridge)

    I want to take a Mini PCIe card, such as any notebook wifi adapter that uses MiniPCIe signaling (NOT the USB portion of Mini-PCIe, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#PCI_Express_Mini_Card ), and converts it to USB 3.0. I see many adapters that look like they do this, but they are...
