Funny :) It was working normal, but I just disconnected all fans from the Nexus 2 header and as I had enough fan headers on the motherboard, I connected them directly to the mobo. Then I contacted Fractal, and they sent me a new power cable for the board and Nexus 2 board itself for free. I...

So I was exchanging PSU, on my Fractal Case. When I was trying to close the case, a cable accidentally got pulled out from the case's fan controller board (Fractal board on top right-hand corner of the case). I wrongly assumed that it was the fan cable that had got pulled off, it was actually a...

I don't think anyone will buy it now (in Europe), and at what price? I have spare power supply, case etc, I could just build a cheap internet PC with it. On amazon it still has 4.6 stars out of 5. So maybe we hear more from the unlucky ones? If it fails again, then my Dark Hero is still...

Hmm! I was thinking of picking a cheap 5900x (prices dropping all the time) and building a backup PC. So would you trust this mobo? Warranty still valid for another 2 years! or maybe just buy a 5600x and use it as an internet PC! Never again will I buy expensive mobo!!!!

Argh! So they just stick the foils on it? The IO, m.2 etc areas have brand-new looking foils stuck on them.

I RMAed a dead Asus X570 Mobo and moved all the parts to a different MSI Mobo. Now I just received a new Asus Mobo sent back to me. Basically, I have 2 x X570 mobos now. I might build a second system on it. Currently, I have 2 x 32GB 3600 RAM. I was thinking of just stealing one stick from my...

Just an update, I had RMAed the Dark Hero due to the "Error 4d" and had transferred all the components to an MSI Tomahawk. Now 1 month later I got a non-retail plain brown box in post back, it has a different serial number Dark Hero. It has all the plastic foils still stuck on the motherboard...

UPDATE- Ended up buying the MSI Tomahawk and 5900x. First I pulled the 5950x from the Asus Dark Hero MOBO along with the 64GB RAM, and it all runs fine on the MSI Tomahawk. Managed to finish my project and sent it to the client. Can breathe now :) Will RMA the Asus Dark Hero MOBO. Will...

Unfortunately, 4d is back!!!!

I have the tower version of that Fractal Meshify 2 case, it is excellent. Just large, but I might just get another one of the same. I live in Europe.

Ok ordered the MSI MAG X570 TOMAHAWK WIFI (AM4, AMD X570, ATX)

This ATX case will be enough for X570 Mobo with 5950x, right? I have the XL version, but want to buy a smaller version this time

Well this morning the PC is booting (no 4d error, like last night). wtf? Can't trust this MOBO, ethernet port stopped working last month too. MSI Tomahawk, I need to update the BIOS for it to work with 5900x/5950x, correct? Liek this- https://www.mbreviews.com/update-msi-x570-bios-amd-zen3/

I woke up after hardly getting any sleep! Saw your post and went to pull the memory out. Access due to the cooler is difficult, so I decide to start the PC anyway, and I did not get the error and could enter the bios, loaded F5 default settings and I could log into windows normal. Done 2...
