Thanks @geofelt . My case is a CIT dark knight. I use a 360 H150i Corsair ELITE cooler. The machine is built light, so that I can just put it into my suitcase and go to my parents place when needed, continuing to work from there. I am fine with the 13900k. I had a 5960x which was overclocked...

Thanks @Lafong. I am happy to run it at full speed, since it is part of my work. However, one thing I do wish to avoid is failure which results in computation errors. I run Linux on the machine and I wouldnt want to find out the worst way that my CPU is not reliable any more - possibly after...

Hello All, I am back here with my build woes. After sufferring a burn out I now have a Z790 TUF GAMING D5 board with a 13900k. I have left the settings/voltages etc at stock/auto and have enabled XMP1 which gives me 5600 MHz. Would I face any issues if I kept running it this way. I am fine with...

Thanks @drea.drechsler . I worked out some numbers based on the ATX PSU spec, the EPS pin should deliver a maximum of 20A at 12v which equates to 240W. The Mainboard 24pin connector should support 12A for the 3.3V rail, 14A for the 5V rail, and 20A for the 12V rail. On the 12V rail, my burnt...

Thanks all. I guess this is a lesson for me. I should have spend more time to research a better ATX case. Had the case been bigger the power supply would have been a normal one, which could then mean I could have a normal board with normal EPS pin outs for extra power. In essence, the...

Hello Helpstar, No, I did not connect the sense wire - I will from now on if I do get it back to working state 😊

Hello All, I was using my Asrock X299 ITX based motherboard today, running a 10980xe at stock speeds(or lower @4.4 GHZ) using a Silverstone SX800-LTI as PSU. The setup has an AMD 6600XT graphics card and is installed within a thermaltake G3 slim case. The machine has been used for about a 1000...

Hello All, I am new to the forum. I have a doubt about my Silverstone ST1500: https://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=226 The power supply supplies 5.2 V on the 5 v rail and 3.4 V on the 3.3 V rail and 12.096V on the 12V rail - I am a bit concerned that it supplies 5.2 v on the 5 V...
