I have a MSI Z790 tomahawk DDR5 mobo. I installed 2 identical KC3000 NVME, one in M2 slot 1 and the other in M2 slot 4. I didn't pay attention when I installed OS and now I have no clue whether the boot drive is the one from M2_1 (from CPU) or the M2_4 (from chipset). I looked into disk...

sweet, that's what I thought too. Thanks I will give this a try!

that makes sense! Could this be alleviated if I get 2 fans instead of 3 to create a balanced intake vs exhaust state, and placing them towards the end of the top case to give some room for the cool air to circulate a little?

I have a new Lian Li Lancool 3 case, currently using the stock 4 fans (3 front for intake, one rear), the GPU and CPU temp avg at around 65 c when gaming, but max CPU temp can go into the 80s (My CPU cooler is DeepCool Assassin 4. ). I would like to bring that down more by adding 3 more 140mm...

Hey guys. Had my PC for 1.5 years now with no issue (mobo is AsusROG STRIX Z 390 E) . I had 16gb of RAM before (G.Skill DDR4 3200>. Today I went to pick up 2 more 2x8 GB RAM (Ripjaws Fury DDR4 3200) for a 32 GB uograde. I put the new ones in and they clicked fine. But upon booting, everything...

I disassembled the PC to look around but still couldn't find the cable. I've uploaded a picture of the chassis panel. All fans are properly connected . Fan 4 is a fan I added myself and it works, but the 3 preinstalled fans still do not work and I have no idea where/how to connect them without...

thank you! Sorry the 2nd and 3rd pictures were for another thread, only the first pic was meant for this thread, but thanks for your informative reply! Unfortunately this pack of fractal design fans did not come with a fan controller...so I will exchange them for something else because I don't...

Thanks for the reply, but the problem is that the 3 pins are not consecutive. there is one that doesn't have a hole so I cannot plug it into the 4 pin headers. Please see the first image for what I mean. View: https://imgur.com/a/qIebkEz

Hi! My motherboard is Asus ROG Z390E and I bought 3 fractal design prismal AL 120 fans for the case (Thermaltake level 20 MT). But I cannot seem to connect the fans because each fan comes with 2 cables, both of which are 3 pin, but the motherboard only has 4 pins fan connectors. What should I...

Hi guys, I had this ASUS 1080 for 2+ years now. Never had any problem running or other technical issues. I didn't OC it either. Recently I started monitoring its temperature. I noticed that the GPU temperature would steady rise from bootup, even if I'm not running anything at all, and only Steam...

I have an Asus 1080 and the Benq Swift PG278Q 1440p monitor. However there is this game that only supports up to 1080p (DW8XL) and every time I launch the game, my screen flashes once, similar to what those old TV does when the channel is dead or when you turn it off. I didn't think it matters...

I see this value always at max when I play games, and apparently it's not a good thing? I have 16GB of Ram.
