Someone here must use HeadphoneX or similar?

Could any BIOS overclock settings cause this issue?

Thanks, I'll have a closer look.

I totally agree, it if plays my games OK without crashing I'm happy. I'll have a look at Speedfan then too.

Well, just as I thought I had to dial the OC back to 4.8GHz to get through x264. Even then and with the Krakens fans and pump at 100% the package still hit 85°C MAX. And the Vcore only goes up to 1.270v during the test? Not quite sure why though as from what I've read the Kraken should handle...

Oh and as for the push/pull fan setup on my CPU rad, you may be right but I'll do some more reading up. All 4 fans are 4pin 140's and they are all configured to run on exactly the same profile, the only unknowns are whether the 2 different types have the same flow rate (probably not) and whether...

Thanks, I think I've actually managed to improve my temps a little. NZXT CAM has been giving my issues and not recognising my Kraken cooler, but I think I've fixed it and so I'm now able to set my Krakens pump speed to 'performance'. I'm not so sure I can believe this but while running...

I can't see anything at all under 'account' online?

I'm building a new rig with a new retail copy of Windows 10 so my old rig with my retail copy of Win 8.1 (upgraded to 10) will be available, I'll offer it locally as a complete build before deciding to break it for parts so... Can i even sell 'my' copy of Windows 10 (upgraded from 8.1) or is it...

Hmm well I'm actually building this system (more or less) in this video and at around 50secs in you see him swap the standard rad fan for a Corsair ML140, how has he done this then? https://youtu.be/smdAG-1Gd98 I assume then he's plugged it in as a chassis fan, so is there any harm in running...

Wow thanks, so yes I'll ditch the 1TB WD M.2 in favour of a either a 1TB NVMe M.2 or a 500GB M.2 NVMe + a normal SATA 500GB SSD depending on which option works out cheaper.

I have this motherboard on order (ASUS TUF Z270 MK1), the spec sheet shows "NVMe Boot (via M.2 PCIe Slot)", I was going to get this M.2 drive (WD 1TB Blue M.2), but I've just seen that it has no mention of NVMe on its spec sheet. So, what is NVMe and because it's a new build would I be better...

Weird question I know, I have this motherboard on order for a new build and I plan to use a hybrid GPU (hopefully the EVGA 1080ti Hybrid, when it is available), anyway, I want to change the fan on the hybrid GPU's radiator so it matches all the other fans (Corsair ML140's) in the case. So, can I...
