I'd assume the 240 is no different. The rad is on the outer side of the case, with the fans on the inside, so pulling is the only way that makes sense in that config, isn't it? That way it pulls cold air in, from outside the case, which then passes through the warm rad, into the case, then...

Thank you Mr. Spock. I'm about to watch some Picard right now actually. The cooler is neatly hidden in the title, an ML240R. If it were a stock 115X cooler the CPU would surely be in the 80's or 90's under full load based on the hundreds of other systems I've tested in similar spec, relative to...

I navigated to the 'AI Tweaker' Tab setting 'CPU Core'/Cache Voltage', then down to 'Offset Mode' - 0.100, NOT '+' obviously, and seems to be doing what I want now, runs 7°C cooler with negligible (if any) performance impact. I also added a manual Q-Fan curve (similar to the Turbo fan curve) in...

I'm running an Z370-F Gaming (BIOS: 2401) and i7-8700 (non k) with temps/volts spiking to 75°C/1.5v under load. Cooler is liquid ML240R, as per title. Seems like a high spike in volts, if nothing else. The ambient temps in all cases was ~22°C, although I fear in summer @ 40°C ambient, it will...

No idea why, but I uninstalled the old Logitech controller gaming software and switched it to 'X' mode and now it appears to work at the appropriate times. Eg Story mode for Tekken, and wherever else it's meant to work I guess. Still doesn't work in practice type modes, but I've read that's a...

Hi all, I'm getting no vibration in games with a new F710 controller. Has now been tested in Tekken 7, Mortal Kombat X and Far Cry 5 - none produce any vibration. Vibration setting is switched to 'ON' within all games where applicable. Not sure if Far Cry 5 is compatible but MK and Tekken...

Hi All. I'm running Windows 10 with a EVGA GTX 780Ti. The below issue also occurs with no peripherals plugged in and in other machines as well. It's 100% the card as the PC works fine with a backup card. Last night I changed an option to expand the view in Titanfall 2 from '70' to '90' and...

I have a 500GB SSD storage drive, but when I upgraded to Windows 10 (from 7) it now doesn't show up in Explorer, and only shows up as 'Free space' 'Healthy Recovery' in Disk Management next to my main 250GB SSD drive. I can't assign a drive letter or do anything with it. It just reads as 100%...

*******SOLVED (Permanently) ******** ********************************** I was running BIOS F7. I flashed it to F9. All booting every time no matter what RAM configuration. Why that made a difference is inexplicable! ...To me anyway. Because everything was compatible with the previous version...

****SOLUTION IS OUTLINED IN MY ~LAST POST~**** (What worked for me anyway - a BIOS flash from F7 to F9 on Gigabyte Z97-D3H) I have everything disconnected except for CPU/FAN/MB/monitor and HDMI (or DVI) cable plugged into mobo with no GPU installed. See below for detail. i5 4690 with...
