I have a project I'm working on and this CPU cooler would be perfect for it. Only problem, can't find one anywhere online. Wondering if anyone happens to have one lying around. Happy to pay for it. Hope it's okay to ask this on the forums here.

Gotta put my plug into the RBT Rebel mouse that I've been using a couple/few years now. It's a weird design, but I was getting some bad hand pain and competitive gaming was getting harder being in my 30s now. The click design is really comfortable and basically eliminates tension in my hand...

Lol, you might not want to know. Actually, plastic cardboard and black duct tape. I wish I could afford a 3D printer. Great material for a cheap prototype though.

Does is count as a case "mod" if I built it from the ground up? I guess I used a motherboard tray and back panel from another case so sure. Actually, I was trying to solve the airflow issue I've had with my Crossfire systems. I always have air cooling, so the case gets really hot. Not only did...

Spyro ReIgnited!!! For PC. 🆒 I already played through it on PS4, but I can't wait to see crazy purple dragon platforming at 100+ FPS. I even have the 144Hz monitor for buttery smooth platforming awesomeness! Nearly two decades later, and the nostalgia still hasn't worn off for me. Edit: I...

Just to clarify, I have some personal, somewhat private at the moment, reasons for testing lower clockspeeds. I did update the post with a new test I did at my 4.2GHz manual overclock. Still saw a huge drop in needed voltage to maintain the clockspeed after just a few days. I'm having a really...

Even when I'm asking this question, I'm thinking this is totally stupid. Break-in periods are usually for mechanical parts that have tolerances that adjust to each other at the very start. However, silicon is still being affected by heat. In a sense, it could be "adjusting" since heat causes...

Okay, I see tons of awards for great knowledge on hardware and I completely agree with those. However, I didn't see a good award for RGB. I get it, not everyone loves RGB but some of us live by it. On a more serious note, RGB components are hard to sort through and many lighting solutions are...

I wanted to spread the word on this mouse because I've been following it for a while and I think it could be a really helpful design. It's supposed to be able to help with carpal tunnel, especially for those who spend hours a day in professional work or gaming scenarios. Still, what do you think...

At this point, it's a matter of waiting for Zen, seeing what makes sense in the price/performance ratio, and then deciding on upgrading from my aging 8350 system. Not enough performance boost to justify a rush purchase imho.

Actually, there is a new AM3+ board that I recently purchased, and it's phenomenal. It's the Gigabyte GA-990FX-Gaming. It's a $135 on Newegg and it's, in my opinion, the best board for FX CPUs on the market. The best overclocking board is still the Crosshair V Formula-Z, but it's lacking the...
