    [SOLVED] Will CPU be stable if only 4 pins used in 2x4 ATX 12V Power Connector

    Hi, Got a ITX motherboard (gigabyte x570 aorus) and I made a mistake of connecting just 4 pin CPU power cable to ATX 2x4 12V Power Connector. Is that safe for the CPU or should use 2x4 instead? Its a nightmare to remove wraith prism cooler for an itx motherboard, I hope I wont have to do it lol

    [SOLVED] $1200 Workstation/Gaming Build

    Hi, Your build looks decent, but I wouldn't bother with an old 3.5" slow drive. Get a 1 TB ssd for about 100$ instead. Also, I would choose either nitro+ or red devil card, but gigabyte is decent enough. And stay with 3700x, 3800x not worth it, imho. For PSU I would recommend Corsair RM...

    Build Advice Air cooling vs water cooling for i7 9700k

    Ahh, yes, I am still choosing which one to get. Most likely will stick to Dominators due to their rgb style haha. About motherboard, thanks for the tip, I will investigate, but I heard Auros Elite was prone to overheating. Maybe just an isolated case, idk. Edit: Sorry, overheating issue was...

    Thank you for the answer, I will switch to NH-D15 or find shorter RAM. Also, I am using Z390 I AORUS PRO due to good reviews and built in WIFI. Would you suggest something else?

    Hi guys, It's really hard to decide if for i7-9700k a mid level air cooler like Dark Rock Pro will keep the temps in check or I should rather get a water cooling system. Any experience with a similar build? Component Price CPU Intel Core i7-9700K 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor $363.99...
