    Question Weirdly high 7800x3D temperatures & performance

    The AIO (LS720SE) is fitted with the default fans in the default exhaust config. The AIO is oriented with the tubes facing down, and then the radiator is at the top of the H9 Flow with the tubes coming from the right (standard configuration). So, the overall fan config is as follows: 3x side...

    Question Weirdly high 7800x3D temperatures & performance

    Hello there, As the title says - my (relatively) brand new 7800x3D currently never reaches no less than 49-50c when "idle". When under full 100% load with e.g. Prime95 or Cinebench - the temps easily reach upwards of 89c (and are never lower than 83c), which is then when my CPU starts to...

    Question Too high temperatures for my 7800x3D setup!

    My AIO is in blow/exhaust configuration, at the top of my H9 Flow case. My side fans are intake, and my bottom fans are intake. My back fan is outtake. My AIO only had 2 cables coming off it - the 3 pin A-RGB connector, and a 4 pin (what looked to be a) PWM connector. I plugged this...

    Question Too high temperatures for my 7800x3D setup!

    Hi there. I have recently when in windows been noticing spikes (when having NZXT cam open monitoring the CPU temperature) which go from around 45c to 71c for simple things like opening an application window, starting to type on discord etc etc. I wanted to test to see if my thermals were a tad...

    Question Choosing Fan Setup for NZXT H9 Flow Case: Stick with Pre-built Non-RGB Fans or Upgrade to PWM Fans?

    Right, ok. One last question: With this fan header, can I utilize it as just a regular PWM system/chassis fan? View: https://imgur.com/a/uk4TB7O

    Question Choosing Fan Setup for NZXT H9 Flow Case: Stick with Pre-built Non-RGB Fans or Upgrade to PWM Fans?

    I don't mind those 4 fans being non-RGB, to be honest. However, with the total cost of my build (2.4k GBP) I was just wondering if it would be silly to not go the extra mile and get those fans. However, I don't really mind like I've already said as I already have 3 Arctic ARGB PWM fans which...

    Question Choosing Fan Setup for NZXT H9 Flow Case: Stick with Pre-built Non-RGB Fans or Upgrade to PWM Fans?

    I just bought a NZXT H9 Flow case for my new build, to pair with my other parts. With the fan situation, the pre-built ones are non-rgb regular DC black fans. Should I keep them, and connect them to a 3 way splitter? If so, will I still be able to control the speed of the fans with motherboard...

    Question Stripped M.2 shield screw!

    Hi guys, does anyone have any advice on how to get out this MSI M.2 Frozr shield on my b650m mag mortar WiFi? It’s stripped and I can’t remove it with the rubber band trick or with a latex glove. I ideally also need to put the screw back in after I’ve done all this - but how am I going to do...

    Question Super loud and aggressive DeepCool LS520 SE radiator fans?

    I am sure it’s those fans as it’s the only loud fans when I physically move my ear around and inside the computer. I also used an actual DB meter. Same results. The fans used are the ones that come with the DeepCool LS520SE WH (stock fans, basically). The pump is plugged into I think cpu fan...

    Question Super loud and aggressive DeepCool LS520 SE radiator fans?

    Hi there. Is there any way to fix as the title says? They constantly ramp up and ramp down SUPER aggressively and not even when they should… For example - I open discord? 100% fan speed. I turn on my pc? It does the same thing for the duration of the posting sequence. Etc etc. Is there any...

    [SOLVED] Dell OptiPlex 3010 MT RAM ISSUE

    Hi, I recently successfully case swapped my optiplex 3010 MT into an ATX case and everything went smoothly except from when I tried to make it post. Even though it would not post, everything was plugged in on the MOBO and sounded right. When trying to fix my problem I removed 1x 4g (I have 2x4g...
