    Question Reading files from 'Windows Server' hard drives in Windows 10 ?

    Not able to connect both at the same time but noticed they had different partitioning via computer management. Unable to ask neighbour as she hasn't a clue, her ex is extremely weird and unpleasant so no communication there.... Will look into the tools you mentioned thanks !

    Question Reading files from 'Windows Server' hard drives in Windows 10 ?

    A neighbour had an old Dell PC running 'Windows Server'. The two hard drives have been passed to me. Yet connecting them to my Windows10 PC one by one it can see the drives and partitions but all options other than Erase are greyed out. No drive letters, can't assign drive letters and nothing...

    Question Noctua NF-A14 Industrial PPC 2000RPM IP67 PWM to NF-A14x25 G2 ?

    Update from Noctua today....... "Unfortunately, we had to go through an additional refinement and validation cycle of the injection moulding tools and this has caused a delay."

    Question Noctua NF-A14 Industrial PPC 2000RPM IP67 PWM to NF-A14x25 G2 ?

    The case is right by my side so hard to ignore the crackle 😳. Mounted vertically on the front. Took the brown rubbers off when mounting and had no black ones so straight on the case metal. Rubbers won't help though as can hear the crackle coming from the motors themselves !.

    Question Noctua NF-A14 Industrial PPC 2000RPM IP67 PWM to NF-A14x25 G2 ?

    Just baught two 'returned' NF-A14 Industrial PPC 2000RPM IP67 PWM to upgrade my old bequiet 3-pin front case fans. Yes much better airflow and lower idle rpm due to the pwm but the noise !?. Limited top speeds using armoury crate for a more pleasant gaming experience but the low rpm tickover...

    Question Asus TUF 3080Ti overheat - fans intermittently stopping under load

    UPDATE.... Just noticed his GPU reaching 80c while gaming (used to max out at 60c). Fans were spinning but the card sounded unusually quiet. Went in MSI Afterburner and pushed the fan(s) to 100%, NO CHANGE. Tried the different tick boxes but still no change. It seems afterburner has lost...

    Question Asus TUF 3080Ti overheat - fans intermittently stopping under load

    Yes and great minds think alike. I'll swap the video cards ASAP but will not be able to hammer the PC as my son does now for at least another week (maybe two) when he returns. I'll hopefully post a photo of his Seasonic label tomorrow though and maybe have a look at mine too for comparison.

    Question Asus TUF 3080Ti overheat - fans intermittently stopping under load

    Hopefully I'll remove the power supply tomorrow so i can see the label, we have two so will be interesting to see if there's any difference between them..... On the other hand the quoted links seem to be talking of the whole PC shutting down, not just the GPU fans ??
