    M2 drive temperature

    Changed back to my FT02 case with better airflow. Temps on the drive are now 15C lower, and the motherboard sensor shows 20C lower.

    M2 drive temperature

    Yeah, I'm going move everything back into my old FT02 case next week. I like the Carbide 240, but it just doesn't have the same airflow, at least not with a 240mm radiator in the front. In addition to the M2 drive getting hot, the motherboard sensor reports temps over 60C, which also isn't good...

    M2 drive temperature

    I'm seeing my M2 drive hit temperatures of up to 76C when playing games; the video cards are basically cooking it. The GPUs themselves are staying the 70s, so they're not overheating, and the CPU stays in the 40s and 50s. I haven't noticed any data corruption or speed issues with the M2 drive...

    Adapting a 240x120 mm radiator to 2 180mm fans

    I'm thinking of going back to my old FT02 case, but I'd like to keep using my Arctic Freezer 240 cooler. The FT02 has 3 180 mm fans at the bottom, and I'd like to mount the 240's radiator to two of those fans. I've done some Google searches for an adapter/bracket, but I can't find anything...

    Windows 10 Pro OEM key with Windows 10 Home Retail USB

    Actually I used the Windows Home machine to make a new USB install stick. I used that for my install, and it took my OEM Pro key, no problem.

    Windows 10 Pro OEM key with Windows 10 Home Retail USB

    Ok, simply to keep to me from having to fish my DVD drive out of my current PC when I build my new PC, can I use my Windows 10 Pro OEM key (brand new, not used yet) from the OEM DVD with the Windows 10 Home retail USB stick (used it to build my parent's latest computer)? I suspect the answer is...

    H80i Lifespan?

    I currently have an H80i cooler that's about 4 years old working quite well. I'm planning on upgrading to a 6700k soon, and I'm wondering if I count on the H80i lasting for a few more years, or if I should replace it as part of my upgrade.

    CPU slowly degrading?

    I had a similar problem with my 2600k a while back. It wasn't the CPU, but my H80 that was dying. I replaced that, and the CPU's still humming along with the same overclock.

    Dell U2413 and U2713H Official Information Appears

    That's probably what I'll do, since U3013 (or 14) is rumored to ship in March.

    Dell U2413 and U2713H Official Information Appears

    Would this monitor be a good upgrade from the 3007WFP-HC? I've been using the 3007 for the past 5 years or so, and I'm noticing more and more ghosting when gaming, so I'm starting to think about getting a replacement for it. I'd prefer to stick with Dell monitors, since I've never had trouble...

    Seeing CPU clock jitter with PLL Overvoltage off

    Thanks. ThrottleStop shows 1 to 2 kHz of jitter, so you're right about it being a measurement error.

    Seeing CPU clock jitter with PLL Overvoltage off

    I turned off PPL Overvoltage to get sleep to work right, and now I'm seeing up to half a megahertz of clock jitter in both the CPU and DRAM clocks (where before it was a tenth of a megahertz). I've been running Prime95 large FFT test for over half an hour now (just made the change), and I...

    Fans and TIM for an H60

    Ok, I'll keep things as they are for now. I'm looking forward to OCing this thing. Thanks guys!

    Fans and TIM for an H60

    I finished my new build last night, with an FT02 case, i7-2600k and an H60 using the TIM it came with, the H60 fan pushing and the FT02 exhaust fan pulling. Right now at stock CPU speed, I'm seeing idle temperatures at 29C and load temperatures (Prime95 small FFTs) at 52C (that's one core, the...
