    How many fans can I run off one fan header?

    The manual for the NZXT X63 states to plug the 3-pin Pump tach cable directly into the 4-pin CPU-FAN header on the motherboard. Is this an incorrect way of doing it? Is it better to leave the Pump tach cable disconnected, or plug it into a SYS-FAN? Right now I do not have the 3-pin tach cable...

    How many fans can I run off one fan header?

    First off, thank you all for the replies so far. I don't visit the forum often but I always appreciate people sharing their time and knowledge to help others out. The pump is powered by a SATA power connector drawing power from the PSU, it's just the header that controls the pump speed which...

    How many fans can I run off one fan header?

    Hello, I built an ITX build in a Cooler Master NR200 ITX case about a year ago. The system has never had very good cooling in the time that I've had it. The build features a Ryzen 5 5800X and a Gigabyte GTX 3080 Ti, so it puts out a lot of heat. For CPU cooling I have the NZXT Kraken X63 280mm...

    Splitting a DVI-D cable to use two monitors

    Unfortunately the video card only has one HDMI port as well, but it has three DisplayPorts so I guess I will use those. Thank you!

    Splitting a DVI-D cable to use two monitors

    Hello, I need to get two 23" monitors on a very limited budget and I am looking at the Dell S2316M. The issue is that it only has VGA and DVI connections. I will be running them off a GTX 1070 video card, which only has one DVI output. Is it possible for me to use a splitter to use the one DVI...

    i3-6100 with a GTX 1070?

    I think in the end I would get more raw frames per second at 1440p out of the i3+1070 combo than i5+1060, no? I would definitely plan on dropping in an i5-6600K with aftermarket cooling, but something like 6 months from now. Would it cause any problems if I switched out the processor like that...

    i3-6100 with a GTX 1070?

    Thank you for the reply. I considered waiting for the 1070s to come down in price and dropping down to 8GB of memory to go for an i5-6400, but I don't know if it would be worth it to lose 1Ghz of clock speed to gain 2 more physical cores. Thoughts?

    i3-6100 with a GTX 1070?

    Hello, I have a strict $1000 limit for building a PC (Tower + Monitor) and I want to maximize its gaming potential. I'm wondering if a Core i3-6100 is going to be a serious bottleneck when paired with a GTX 1070. I know the knee-jerk reaction is "Of course it's going to be a bottleneck" but the...
