    Question SSD standoff detached from motherboard [MSI Z690 Tomahawk]

    Thank you for your help. The other M.2 slots are ok but the one I am using it is the fastest one if I am not mistaken. In principle it is only to secure the SSD heatsink in my case but It serves as secondary ground for longer SSD. At least that is what I have been told. Some people have...

    Question SSD standoff detached from motherboard [MSI Z690 Tomahawk]

The broken one is used to screw the heatsink included with the motherboard. Also the broken one is perfectly flat, I do not think it had a thread and the...

    Question [SOLVED] Cooling options for EVGA 2080 ti XC Ultra (Reference PCB) after fan failure

    Thank you for the video. This is something I could do and it does not seem very difficult. A naive question. With this new fans, how are GPU temperatures monitored? Is it the same way as with the stock fans? I know they have sensors somewhere but I am not sure if they need the small circuit...

    Question [SOLVED] Cooling options for EVGA 2080 ti XC Ultra (Reference PCB) after fan failure

    Hello everyone, I recently built a new PC and I reused my EVGA 2080 ti XC Ultra from the older PC. Modo, CPU and everything else is new. Everything is working fine except the GPU fans, that do not spin. The GPU itself is fine and it works. I have probably tried most of the common solutions I...
