    Aftermarket front dust filter in Meshify C

    Aeacus, thanks for the help! Yes, the picture on the Demciflex website make the filters look as though they have plastic frames.

    Aftermarket front dust filter in Meshify C

    I was looking last night, and the only thing I don't like about the demciflex is that all of their filters have a plastic frame. Really, I would just like the filter media with no frame or magnets so I could remove the foam I currently have and clip the new filter media in the front panel. I...

    Aftermarket front dust filter in Meshify C

    Aeacus, thanks for the info. I was hoping someone that uses Demciflex would reply. I would actually like to buy it without the magnet. My foam filter is held in place by metal tabs that are bent in place, just like on some picture frames to hold the pictures in place. I'll figure it out...

    Aftermarket front dust filter in Meshify C

    tl;dr questions: 1) what DIY/cut to fit/custom dust filter has the best trade off of high air flow and filtering ability? 2) is the metal mesh on the front of the case small enough to act as a proper dust filter for intakes? I'm talking about just removing the foam behind the mesh. I'm...

    Asus EZ Tune question

    Eternal, thanks for the reply. Essentially, I'm trying to figure out how to "set it and forget it" like you said. I want to make sure it's on and working and not have to deal with it again. I may play around with upgrading my cooler and going for a better OC, but for right now, the computer...

    Asus EZ Tune question

    I've poked around in AI Tweaker, but haven't changed anything other than TPU from "keep current settings" to "TPU I." When I did that, it clocked the cpu at 3.85GHz. But if it's normally clocked at 3.4GHz with a boost clock of 3.9GHz, would manually increasing the ratio to 39 really...

    Asus EZ Tune question

    That's the video I watched earlier. When I go to CMB -> nbio common options, I only have the "mode0" settings. I do not have any of the other settings, and I'm running the most recent bios. I agree with you that there are many settings that 99.99% of us will never touch, but it's a little...

    Asus EZ Tune question

    zebarjadi, thanks for the reply! It's not that I would benefit from a certain boost level as I said in my OP that my computer is plenty fast for my needs, I'm just playing around with OCing using the built in tools and the stock cooler. If AMD markets this as 3.9GHz max boost from the factory...

    Asus EZ Tune question

    Here is my build: Asus Prime X470-pro Ryzen 5 2600, stock cooler Corsair Vengeance 3000MHz, CL 15 Sapphire Nitro+ RX580 I haven't OCd before, and I got my ram running at 16-17-17-35, while it's supposed to be at 15-17-17-35. After reading, I understand AMD chipsets have issues running at odd...

    Corsair lighting node pro keeps disconnecting

    As an update, the RGBs went out again. They were working for about a week. I just turned on my PC, and nothing. The Corsair RGB memory, keyboard, and mouse work fine. It seems that the firmware force update didn't work. Any ideas?

    Corsair lighting node pro keeps disconnecting

    Yes, it's full SATA straight from the PSU on a cable with 4 SATA connectors. There is only 1 HDD connected in addition to the LNP. I forced a firmware update last night, so we'll see how that does. So far, so good.

    Corsair lighting node pro keeps disconnecting

    I recently built a new pc with a lighting node pro, Corsair RGB hub, and two LL140 fans. I have the hub plugged into the first port on the LNP, and the LNP has SATA power and is connected to a USB 2.0 port on the mobo. It will work fine for a day or two, then disconnect. I'm running the...

    XMP profile not as advertised?

    I really appreciate the help, guys. I'm just going to leave it at 16-17-17-35 if that's what my configuration likes. It's not worth the going from 16 to 15 latency for possible issues. Rogue, do you have the 3000MHz version of my ram running at 3200MHz, or do you have the 3200MHz that's...

    XMP profile not as advertised?

    If I set the timing manually to 15-17-17-35, and leave everything else on auto with docp off, it reverts to 16-17-17-35. The link darkbreeze posted in the second post discussed Ryzen having issues with odd-numbered CAS timings, and it seems some people have had luck turning gear down off. But...
