Not even during "Pyramid Song"? That one really pulled me in, although the soundtrack may have had a lot to do with it as well.

Can't wait!

dvsman: Yes, according to Samsung Magician the 970 is using the NVME driver. The 840 has Rapid Mode enabled, but Rapid Mode is not available for the 970.

Funny thing was, I didn't see it listed on the parts callout. It wasn't even mentioned in the main instructions. I just happened to see the piece in the parts bag after I latched the CPU, (but luckily before I mounted the heatsink). It was then that I spotted the installation instructions for it...

Master- Yes, I tried it the way the instructions illustrate it, but I just couldn't get the plate to close. Kyle- I finally just left it out and finished the build without it. Thanks both!

Sorry about that! C drive is the 970EVO, F is the 840EVO:

Just sorting out a new build- ASUS Z930-A, 9700K and a 970EVO NVMe M.2 drive. Running some benchmarks after getting everything up and running, it looks like my old 840EVO kicks the 970EVO ass. Possible driver issue, BIOS issue, defective 970? It's only running PCIEx2, because I'm using all 6...

Just put together a new build- 9700K with TRUE Spirit 140 Power. The cooler included a plastic spacer for use with 1151 sockets. No matter what I tried, I couldn't get the retaining plate to close with the spacer on the CPU. From what I've read, the spacer became necessary because Skylake CPU...

I am kinda leaning towards the True Spirit 140 Power- should fit in my 800D. Thanks for the info!

Cool. Thanks both for the replies!

Gathering parts for a new build (i7-9700K on an Asus Z370-A Prime). Trying to decide on an air cooler. Wondering if the Macho is that much better, if at all, than the TRUE Spirit. Basically wondering if the extra weight and size is worth it. Thanks!

San Diego???

I know Fallout 4 has been out quite a while, but after searching (apparently Google is not my friend), I can't seem to find an answer. I've finished the main story long ago, and am now just fooling around. For some reason (a game update, maybe) I can no longer load the "Turret Override" program...

Yeah- apparently the later ones shipped with the SATA 3 and USB 3.0 installed. Now, finding either upgrade kit for an older case is near impossible.

Doesn't look bad to me. (but what do I know???) Oh, and at 1:37- "I DID NOT MURDER HIM!!!"
