Just a quick reply to end off this thread, thank you everyone for your help! I used 2 of the stock case fans as my top exhaust, and the 120mm Noctua 1200RPM gray REDUX fan as my rear exhaust. Went with 2 140mm Noctua CHROMAX fans as my intake and the NH-D15 as my CPU cooler (the fans are not...

It looks like the NH-D15 comes with AM4 support since 2019, so I should be good on that. Also, I just found out that there's a CHROMAX version that is coated in black rather than tan/brown. And it looks like the clearance should be just barely enough too! The case is listed to have a 176mm CPU...

Yeah I've read all kinds of stuff like how these new NVMe 4 drives are hotter than ever and how heat sinks are a must! But I've also read that it's only by a few degrees and the difference is pretty negligible so why bother. I guess yeah why worry for such a small amount of money - I might as...

Hello! I'm currently looking to overhaul my system, and I'm moving into new territory as I'm looking to go higher end. Noise is a major concern for me as my current system is so loud and I can't stand it. My current system just has a random assortment of different-size fans that don't...

I saw that the RTX 3070 is going to release at $500 which sounds like an amazing deal, I just have some questions before I make a final decision. Current Specs: Mobo: ASUS TUF Gaming x570 Plus Wifi CPU: Ryzen 7 3700X GPU: GTX 1050 TI RAM: 32GB Ripjaws V DDR4 (4x8GB sticks) PSU: Thermaltake...

The only hard drive in my computer is an old HDD. It always takes at least 3 minutes for my computer to boot up, and loading into games or moving files around is unbearably slow. I've decided that I'm going to get an SSD this weekend. I've been looking at the Samsung 860 EVO 500GB for $82 (is...

Hmm, it isn't letting me submit the post when I put gyazo links, marks it as spam. Anyways to summarize, I go from ~15ms to 300 to 500 back to 15 when pinging google, and occasionally it goes up to 2000ms or just times out. My modem goes from 1-5ms to over 100 sometimes. If I can get this post...

I am a competitive Rocket League player, and I've been having internet issues for quite a while (constant latency variation & ping spikes to google and modem). I'd been putting off trying to figure it out at first, but eventually got sick of it. I ran some speed tests a while ago getting less...

I'm looking to majorly overhaul my computer because it isn't really suiting my needs anymore (and it's age is starting to show smh). My current specs: MOBO - HP Compaq Elite 8200 Elite Motherboard LGA1155 CPU - Intel i7 2600 @ 3.4GHz GPU - EVGA GTX 1050 TI RAM - G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 8GB...
