I just replaced my 6 year old x72 with the new elite 360. In my experience, I'm getting a solid 5 degree jump in temp when idling in the BIOS. This is with the same exact thermal paste under all the same exact conditions. This is why I reached out. I wanted to see if others were experiencing...

As I mentioned, I recently just replaced my x72 with the new Elite 360, non RGB. I'm actually getting a solid 5 degree jump in temperature when idling in the BIOS. This is with the same exact thermal paste under the same exact conditions. My x72 was still working fine but I thought I should...

The Ryujin III is the best 360 AIO available but I'm not sure if its compatible with your socket. I would have got one, but it doesn't support my CPU socket. Instead, I got a Kraken Elite 360 since I can use the same hardware from the previous generation.

Anyone have experience upgrading the x72/x73 to the new kraken elite 360? What are your thoughts, do you think it's an improvement in performance, is your cpu the same temperature?

I don't understand. Is there any benefit to run the (2) fans to a PWM hub? Would it make more sense to just run the (2) fans directly to the motherboard? I think the PWM hub is designed to connect to the CPU_FAN header due to the voltage. However, my AIO cooler connects to my CPU_FAN header.

Hello, I have a Phankets Enthoo Pro Tempered Glass desktop. Which fan/pump motherboard header should I use for the 2 front fans? I can run the 2 front fans to the included Phanteks PWM hub and then to the motherboard, or just run the 2 front fans directly to the motherboard. I want to keep the...

I wasn't interested is the Cablemod 90 degree adapter because I had plenty of clearance with a 3x8-pin to 12VHPWR cable. You can see this in the images I provided above. So, I'm being told Cablemod will have a new 12VHPWR cable available in about 4 weeks. Does anyone know if this will actually...

This is misinformation, it's way too early to give an accurate number. As I explained, my cable worked fine for 6 months and then the issue started happening Out of nowhere. It could start happening with your cable tomorrow. Either way, this is a big deal especially for those who are...

I can't leave it the way it is, my stock PSU, 8-pin cables are way too long. Since my PC was built with the individually sleeved EVGA cables, I have to stay with an EVGA PSU. Unfortunately, EVGA doesn't offer any 12VHPWR or 12x2x6 cables and even if they did, they would most likely not be the...

I thought the issues were happening from people bending the cable too much. Fortunately for me, I have plenty of clearance in my case and don't need an angled adapter. I went from an ideal cable run to an ugly mess.

Okay, that is very helpful. I didn't realize the 12v 2x6 spec is already present in the new 4090 FE cards. As far as you know, there won't be anymore changes to the 12v 2x6 spec on the actual 4090 FE cards, correct? For 4090 FE (12vhpwr) owners, do you recommend they RMA their card for a...

I don't understand. Will the 12v 2x6-pin become the ports on the 4090 cards or the plug, on the power cables?

The 12V2x6-pin, will that become the new port on the 4090 FE cards? I don't understand.

No, my PSU is EVGA and they don'toffer one. Did you go with a 3x8-pin or 4x8-pin to 12VHPWR?
