I've still got one of my two 8800gtx in my retro rig. Didn't realize it had been so long.

I played the hell out of it on PS when it first came out. I have flashbacks to this day when I hear Outshined by Soundgarden.

Made up bs. You would have to literally try to damage a GPU while installing a block in the way he's suggesting.

That's my kind of woman. And no, I'm not complaining sweetheart(even tho all I got was a CPU for my b-day). You're the best! ❤️

I've been pondering much the same for a couple of months as my current desk is nearly 30 years old. There's nothing wrong with the old girl but it's time to upgrade to something a bit more modern and attractive. I'm going to build my desk but I have to figure out materials (when I can find the...

Sorry I've no idea :D I have a Koolance manual pump controller that I make adjustments with. I stopped worrying about pump speeds a long time ago. As long as I can effectively purge my loop and keep the micro bubbles from re-entering my loop over and over(maddening) I'm gtg. Dual d5s.

How are your fans behaving? If you haven't already, eliminate your fan profile and crank them up to maximum speed and see what that does. Are you ocing? If so, step everything back down to stock. You can also try cleaning everything off of the heatsink and doing the flashlight test to see if...

A PlayStation when it came out. It died... bought another. It died. Bought another and yes of course it too died. Friends and I came across a mod online to replace the... don't remember(maybe the rom?)that brought them back to life for 8 or 9 months. Bought a PC and didn't touch another...

I enjoy both. My main rig is lit up completely blue enough to see the components and loop. My backup rig is blacked out with green fluid behind a darkened window. No lights other than the water temp display on the reservoir. Cable management is no longer a priority. As long as the door closes...

That review looks really solid. But if they follow their past timelines for Chromax gear it'll be another year before those finally get released. They love leaving money on the table for some reason.

Soak them in CLR(completely submerged) for 5 to 10 minutes. If that doesn't clean the crud out of them nothing will.

From what I remember the biggest issue was the thermal gel they used vs traditional thermal paste or pads on the core, vrms and memory. It would literally migrate away from and slide off of the components causing all kinds of issues. This was addressed by GB after much ado from users several...

Super Flower Leadex ATX3+ 1700W https://hwbusters.com/best_picks/best-atxv3-pcie5-ready-psus-picks-hardware-busters/9/ is rated the #1 performer at hardwarebusters among all atx 3.1 PSUs. $429 Amazon. Something to ponder.

I considered it for about 2 seconds. Long enough to find the Asus pre-order price. $799 mmnah.

Sounds like that MB is toast. I beat my head against an Asrock MB last year that refused to boot with similar failure/testing. Until I returned it... the replacement worked on first boot.
