So I've made the decision to put two AIO in my ITX build (using the NZXT Manta). My problem stems from my ITX board (Asus Strix B350-i) only have 3 headers. One AIO will be for the CPU, and the other attached to my GPU using the Kraken G12. My question is: Is it safe to plug both pumps into...

So I'm still kind of new to the whole PC building thing and didn't think to check compatibility for Ryzen and memory and whatnot. My memory, Trident Z RGB F4-3000C16D-16GTZR, is currently running at 2133Mhz according to CPU-Z. My question would be, is it safe to try going for 2400Mhz in the...

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a way to reverse my HyperX Savage SSD faceplate. First off, I'd like to know if opening the SSD housing is incredibly dangerous (such as opening an HDD enclosure). I just got the NZXT S340 Elite and would like to display my Savage SSD in the drive slot in...

Would using two kits of 2x4GB memory, one kit red and the other black, in the motherboard mentioned in the title ( http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5655#ov ) work? I'm kind of a newb when it comes to "Dual-channel" and all that lingo. To clarify, I want to go from a 8GB...

So I wanted to pair my Corsair SP120 fans with my Thermaltake NiC C5 cooler. The problem is that the SP120s are slightly smaller than the NiC fan holder. The fans do not readily fall out, but I'd like a little more security. Is there a way of discretely holding the fans in place? I understand...
