Gamers Nexus just tested the Arctic Freezer III and says it's the best sound normalized cooler. https://youtu.be/zfffNRTOZCc?feature=shared I think the new design will also be easier to fit to pretty much any motherboard. It has the same...
Man, I have an Asus Strix 3090 that I bought here in November 2022 that came with an EK waterblock installed for I think $750. Like you though, I haven't had the time to really put it to good use. It also has a lot of coil whine. I'd love a...
Unfortunately, Dragon Age is one of the few games where I have completed all games in the series and I've played DA Origins through several times. I'll definitely play at least the next Dragon Age game and see where to go from there.
5950x at newegg For the record, you can get a 5950x NIB from newegg for $379.00. Same price at amazon as well. That's less than most of the used stuff out there.
My 5950x is screwed and only runs right with PBO tweaked. I have a couple of cores that need + voltage when your run some of those core analysis apps. If I just let it run at stock, it runs at a lower all core clock speed than my 3900x does...
Did a case swap from a Lian Li Lancool II to a the new Lian Li O11 Dynamic Evo RGB. Changed over to EDPM tubing and added a sensor panel using a generic 5" touchscreen, a 3D printed mount, and Aquasuite.
Unfortunately the GPU > CPU loop I had...
I have always heard that custom loops aren’t worth it other than for looks and sound levels. Decided to go for my first build due to how hot my 7950x is
Seems to be worth it for my 7950x.
$350 not counting the heat gun.

I rebuilt my wife's computer into this case while she was away for a month for a school trip to England. It is the second rig in my signature, only new parts are the case itself (of course), the 280mm copper rad and the Corsair LLs on it - the...
Just got this up and running this week. Its been a unintentional long term project as I started buying parts for it in early 2021 and then the project kind of went on hiatus for the rest of 2021 - completely unrelated to the GPU shortage. Anyway...
Latest entry. So I had to do a massive cleanup of my system. Video games and anything CPU intensive would crash. GPU temps were in the 70s and the CPU also was in the upper 70s.
I was using distilled water with Mayhems biocide, but the water...
tl;dr: Like all things: we'll see.
Extended thoughts below.
Not sure that's entirely true. There is a tipping point on what the market will bear. And it's likely that also what is occurring that those who stay at an increased price "more...
This right here, my area is lucky to get anything in 2 days at the best of times. The shipping company amazon uses here is beyond brutal.
I feel like the $140 a year she pays for prime could be better spent other places, i prefer to shop locally...
