    Upgrade Thoughts?

    Hey all - looking for some advice on upgrades... I've got an MSI Pro Z790 with a Core I7 12000kf processor, 32GB RAM, RTX 4080 Super and a couple M2 drives. I get decent performance in most games now, but I'm considering upgrading the processor. Just not sure that it's worth it. What do you all...

    ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155 Motherboard Review @ [H]

    I just swapped out an MSI P67A-GD65 (b3) for an ASrock Z77 extreme6 as the top PCI-x slot was bad in the MSI board. The 6 has a few more options than the 4, but basically the same board, on sale for $100 at microcenter. I've had no troubles with the board, nor did I find the PCB to be...

    Thermalright HR-02 Macho CPU Air Cooler Review @ [H]

    It would be nice to see if it would fit on a p67 board with a fan and allow the use of the first ram slot. Could the first ram slot be used on the Gigabyte x58?

    Getting high temps with Corsair H50

    Just add another fan so you have a push/pull (with the stronger fan pushing) and your temps should drop.

    4 fan asetek beast

    I suspect not. I'd put money on this ending up as an Antec Kuhler 1000, i.e. something to compete with the H100. If I'm right, that means it will need to be priced around $100-125.

    Corsair Announces New Hydro Series Liquid CPU Coolers

    CM 690 II and much cheaper. Probably not as nice, but you can mount a 240 at the top or bottom and you can add 2x 140mm side panel fans.

    Antec 620 Kuhler problem

    I believe the 1425 RPMs is the pump, the fan speed isn't available in the BIOS. And, 1425 is right around where the pump should be based on what I've read and what I see for my setup. For your fan configuration, you want the stronger fan pushing. In my setup, I have the antec fan pulling and...

    Antec 620 Kuhler problem

    It sounds like you might need a BIOS update, I recall there being a "cold boot bug" with some Asus sandy bridge boards. Your temps seem a bit off but not terribly. My idle temps are mid 20's and loading with p95 or occt reach 58-59c or so. How many case fans do you have? Does the rad fan...

    Corsair Hydro Series H60 Liquid CPU Cooler Review @ [H]

    Does "while running windows" mean you're not doing anything in windows? If so, depending on your room temp that seems high. You may want to remount the WB and while doing so check to be sure it's making good contact with the CPU. If it's not, make sure you're mounting it correctly and that it's...

    Corsair Hydro Series H60 Liquid CPU Cooler Review @ [H]

    It also costs 3-4 times more than most of the self contained units. What's the $ per cooling value workout to be with one of those?

    Corsair Hydro Series H60 Liquid CPU Cooler Review @ [H]

    I have the 620 and my brother has the h60 and while they're very similar mounts, there are some differences that might be worthy of discussion. For one, the 620's WB is round and the H60 is square. The 620's bracket and rotation locking are quite nice and make it nearly impossible to squash...

    Corsair Hydro Series H60 Liquid CPU Cooler Review @ [H]

    That's something I forgot to mention. I have a Thermalright 120 Ultra I attempted to use the P67 mounting adapter for on my board. Not only did the adapter not work because of how the screws would've gone right into the capacitors next to the socket, but it would've also blocked the first ram...

    Corsair Hydro Series H60 Liquid CPU Cooler Review @ [H]

    Should've said that I agree with you on well worth the money. I will never buy another air cooler again for any of my gaming rigs. Used to DIY watercool with a mag5, little river / dtek spiral and a black ice extreme back in the day, and the new all in one closed system units finally give you...

    Corsair Hydro Series H60 Liquid CPU Cooler Review @ [H]

    Funny thought they were all made by the same company. The H60 and 620 rads are almost identical. Did you have trouble mounting your waterblock? My bro busted one of the screws from over tightening and also crushed some of the capacitors next to the socket a bit.

    Corsair Hydro Series H60 Liquid CPU Cooler Review @ [H]

    Yea Asetek makes them, from what I've read. My brother has the H60 push CM Sickleflow push default fan pull, with a Core i5-750 @ 3.2ghz 1.3v, CM sniper case, GTX275 and gets similar temps to my setup.
