If the modules your interested in are gskill tridents try and find the ripjawV version with the same part# and timings. They should have the same ics or very nearly the same ics as the tridents. When gskill releases new modules they generally...

Sounds like youve got it.

You should probably look at what's happening on eBay....yesterday 900 to 1kish, today 600ish. The 2000 series didn't really overthrow the 1000 series. When they launched the 2080 was on par with the 1080 ti. The 2080 launched for $700. That's not...

Ive no experience with aios only custom loops but i always make sure i do a second mount to be certain im making good solid contact and getting the kind of tim spread i want before calling it a day. On that note it may be wise to double check...

How are your temps? Are your fans dirty?

I had been using mx 4 for years on gpus and cpus because its cheap and works great, $20 for a giant tube is great value. The last few years ive been using higher end stuff on my own gear like thermal grizzly and prolimatech pk3 with very nice...

Corsair rads are rebranded hardwarelabs oem L series rads. They are the same rads that ppcs sells for $30-$40 less. I mistakenly bought an xr7 thinking it was a gtx when there was a shortage of hwl rads. I paid $100 with a %10 off coupon and...

Gskill is the only stuff ive heard about that has 2x16 ddr4 4000 c16. The trident z and royals are the only rgb. They are oos everywhere. Youll have much better luck trying to find c17 b die. Pretty sure the difference between 16 19 19 and 17 17...

Nice job! You shouldve done a sff on one side and kept the other a cooler so you could freak your friends out. Dude! Theres a computer in your cooler! Haha.

If you're interested in a 3080 you could always buy something from EVGA and use their step up to grab a 3080 when they are available.

In the specs its says it has 3 front accessable 5.25 drive bays. So i would say yes.

Thats what i do. I have 3 splitty9 fan splitters and run them off 3 mb headers, then use the msi software for pwm control. Have 10 (3/3/4) fans running this way no probs. Much easier than going into the bios to make adjustments.

+1 as long as your rads didnt have a bunch of gunk coming out of them dont sweat it. Add some biocide and top her off.

Not likely. The boards will likely stay right at the same voltages needed for your ocs so your temps wont change much if any. I went from a 9900kf on a asrock z390 phantom gaming 9 to an msi z390 meg ace w/ custom loop and nothing really changed...

I forget, how many gens does am4 support now? Amd hooks you up with a drop in upgrade AGAIN and your pissin yourselves? Hmm yeah lets bitch about $50. The average rig runs what 1500 2000 grand...yup 50 bucks is going to break ya. Suck it up and...

No way in hell id touch that model and definitely not the same batch with my gear again. Get something else.

All 4 of my hwlabs rads(sr2/gtx/gtr/gts) smelled funky at first but it went away after a few days. Pretty sure its the detergent they use to rinse them with. Ive got a corsair 360 still in the box but ill have to dig it out to see if it smells...

Bought a automotive molding cutter many years ago for a project and found that they work great for cutting tubing. Which is a good thing being that i only used then once for their intended purpose! Similar to these...

Appols for getting slack! i should update more often..... A hell of a lot more wet sanding flat buff and shine work to all the panels. But the next step was to add some Grills to the top vents. These were never for air but for looks...

Your golden. Move on to the less intricate portions of your build and ENJOY the process man!
