The port is still active, it just won't connect. I was able to get it working by using a static IP in the IPv4 properties but, after another OC crash that does not work either.

Hey, After overclocking in MSI Afterburner and when I get an overclock fail after setting the OC too high I lose access to the internet. The only way I can gain access is to buy a USB ethernet and connect that way. But when I try it again and I again fail with the OC the USB ethernet also loses...

Hey All I am looking at this water block EK-Quantum Vector TUF RTX 3080/3090 D-RGB - Nickel + Plexi with this card ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3090 TUF-RTX3090-24G-GAMING Video Card. Are these compatible? Sorry for the stupid question, but I have been burnt too many times to not take any...

OK, checked all the RAM and slots. The RAM is all OK as all sticks run fine in the working slots. But I have found the the DIMM B1 and B2 are not registering RAM at all and slot B1 is causing a post error. But , what I can't work out is that this is the second MOBO with the same results. Is...

My system is, ROG Zenith II Extreme ThreadRipper 3970x G.SKILL Trident Z Royal Series 256GB (8 x 32GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3200 So first time booting with 8 sticks of RAM in the MOBO I was getting an error and not able to even post. So going through everything I was able to figure out that...

Thanks so much for the help, so I assume I use the PCI connect at the PSU side? LOL, that is not the end of it, here is the water cooling parts list, Bitspower G1/4" Hexagon Flow Indicator, Digital RGB x 2 = $110 Thermaltake Distro Pacific DP100-D5 Plus 360mm 200ml x 2 = $500 Thermaltake 16...

OK, will not use them. I had no idea that they were trouble. Here is my parts picker list, but GPU's are the EVGA water cooled versions, they were not in the selection but are the FTW3 ULTRA versions. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3BxBGc PCPartPicker Part List Type|Item|Price...

The six pin PCI connector does fit, but I have sata and molex to 6 pin that seems to fit as well. Is a peripheral power supply 12 V? PCI seems to fit with the connector latch being off center where as the molex and sata to 6 pin are clicking into place in the correct manner. So is a sata or...

I really don't know what means. You can connect a 4 pin to 6 pin connector? Problem is that my power supply has only two 8 pin CPU power supply connectors.

Hey All, I have a ROG Zenith II Extreme which requires two EATX 8 pin power connectors as well as a EATX 6 pin connector. I have never seen such a connector and my power supply does not have one of theses and neither does any other power supplies I have looked at. How do I connect this to a...

Not sure if I should say this here, but since I was using jumper to continuously test my water loop I just automatically associated power to the pumps etc with a flick of the PSU switch. To actually say what the issue was... I did not turn the PC from the case switch. Problem solved. Sorry...

Hey all, new build here, MOBO = ASUS AMD ROG STRIX X570-E GAMING PSU = Thermaltake TOUGHPOWER GRAND RGB 1200W CPU = AMD Ryzen 9 3900X RAM = 64gb G-Skill GPU = RTX 2080ti Memory = Sabrent 2TB Rocket Nvme PCIe 4.0 When turn the PSU on the only thing seems to turn on is the MOBO's RGB above the...

Thanks, will do.

Hey all, Finally got my water loop finishe and pressur tested air first and looked like I was ready to go. So I filled the loop with Thermaltake C1000 Pure Clear Coolant and after an hour a fitting gave way and I got a little coolant on the mother board. It is ok b/c I was still just running...

If the loop is getting hot and the GPU is not, than it would not be a thermal conductivity problem, ie the thermal paste is doing its job by bringing all the heat correctly to the heat sink (and I always thought that you could put more thermal paste on a GPU b/c the surrounding does not matter...
