    Corsair Announces First Shipments of Hydro Series H60

    I would only disagree slightly in that while yes the radiator is obviously where the cooling happens nearly every component contributes to better temps. im no WC expert but better water block means its pickin up more heat...means good. if the water blink can't pick up heat effectively what good...

    Corsair Announces First Shipments of Hydro Series H60

    ^^ this I would really appreciate if [H] is going to review the h60 that in their apples to apples comparison they include the h50,h60,and h70 all in push/pull : ) im quite sick of other sites reviewing h70 and talking about how h70>h50 yet they are testing h50 with one fan and h70 in...

    CMOS Checksum error - defaults loaded. What does that mean???

    i agree with everyone, only thing you need to post are cpu, mobo, psu, and ram. if ur getting checksum errors, replace battery first, next reseat ram, after that remove all ram and go through one stick at a time remembering to try all of your slots so you know it is not a slot on your mobo. if...

    Switching mobo do I need to reinstall windows?

    the only reason i don't see this working is because its very hard to backup programs. when you install your videogames there is a lot more to it that just your save file. the game installs into the windows operating system so unless the game is capable of doing such things (i.e. downloading a...

    Question about RMA'ing a gigabyte motherboard?

    Computer won't start when graphics card inserted into PCI-E slot

    def sounds like pci-e slot. either try hooking up a new psu or use low end gfx card as spare flair suggested. if you dont have another psu you may be able to get away with unplugging all accessories including hdd and odd...all you really need to boot is ur 24pin 8pin and power to ur gfx

    temperature increase after updating bios?

    i would agree that most likely the bios update increased your vcore or some similar voltage (even though it has always been set on auto). you can lower your temps by setting your voltages manually and stress testing. keep lowering them until its no longer stable and then bump up a few notches...

    M/B or HSF issue???

    all that i was saying was that with qfan on, if none of your hsf's spin up to 6200 under load, i would guess its probably not your fans. however, when he stated that he plugged the hsf into a different header and it still wouldn't spin up to 6200, made me think it was the fan...could be compound...

    X58 Bloodrage won't boot with external HD's attached

    have you messed around with USB settings in BIOS?? disabling legacy support is the first thing that comes to mind

    M/B or HSF issue???

    well i would say its hard to say based on what you've told us. when you say you tried a different HSF with only a 3pin, did it not spin at its full speed? if so i would say it very unlikely that two of your fans would be defective (albeit possible). on a contrasting note, the above statement...

    Question about RMA'ing a gigabyte motherboard?

    i got into some heated debates with them about this and they never gave me a clear answer. working for a pc services company and dealing with warranty work for almost 7 years now, my guess is that their warranties are backed by a third party company such as AIG. most likely it will depend on any...

    A8N SLI DELUXE will not boot with correct DDR speed.

    i owned the a8n-sli premium and munkle is correct, when using all four slots one HUGE disadvantage is it cannot run them at 400, only 333. sry bub, just the luck of the draw :/
