    Commercial Tubing that Doesn't Leach Plasticizer?

    Cheaper than the EPDM that EK sells, I use it for tight radius spots. https://www.mcmaster.com/tubing/uv-resistant-soft-plastic-and-rubber-tubing-for-air-and-water/

    GPUs available and shipped from Amazon Japan

    I was nodding along with you, but then I got to thinking: we're talking about the sort of people that get all frothy about $8 a day ROI for maybe just next week, or maybe the next few months, who knows. One thing is certain though they aren't going to just throw out something with some...

    Pump turns on bit isn't moving liquid

    Judging from the picture it isn't the standard female connector used for fans/pumps. The standard ones look like this: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/538-47054-1000

    Bloomberg - Microsoft Is Designing Its Own Chips for Servers, Surface PCs

    Minicomputers? MMMM, Data General Nova: I ripped off their color scheme for my home lab's rack. More fun than the not-quite-black gray of modern computers, or the plain beige of the 90's.

    Time for new keyboard

    I was actually just wondering if we’d start seeing keyboard building threads here on [H] . Personally I don’t think it has to be the massive money pit some of the keyboard fanatics let it become. -Picking the exact layout and switches you want: cool. -Having a board with custom firmware and...

    Tuning temperature sensors?

    Couple of things: 10K NTC thermistors have a resistance that changes based on temp. The "10K" is the sensor's resistance in ohms at 77F. Your Aquasuite thermometer/indicator/controller is really reading the resistance of the themistor and translating it to temp based on some resistance curve...

    Buying a CPU on eBay?

    Me too. I've gotten CPUs I couldn't have afforded new for pennies on the dollar used. They've all been LGA CPUs, but I've bought mobos no problem too. Pick a seller with a good rep, who posted a reasonable number of pictures, and who lives on the same continent as you, and I think your odds are...

    Ugh, just had one of 'those'

    That looks like a good choice. I can't see the benefit of the X470 or X570 chipsets on ITX since there's no physical room to take advantage of the extra PCI-E lanes. B450 or B550 seems like the way to go.

    Are EPYC chips difficult to find?

    The Joys of Bong Cooling

    Why settle? You could get a small real life cooling tower on ebay right now for $2k. ;) https://www.ebay.com/itm/Cooling-Tower-Model-T-23-3-Nominal-Tons-based-on-95-85-75-9-GPM/291609800732?hash=item43e54c701c:g:c8kAAOSwx2dYJMYF

    Computer emergency, help requested

    Are the AM4 pins too fine to straighten with the tip of a mechanical pencil slipped over them? I think I did that with an AM3 chip I bent some pins on.

    Separate Water Cooling Loop?

    OP you might read this and think: but the water in the loop is hotter because of the other component; however the water is much cooler than either component (if your doing it right) so heat is still transferring which is all we care about. Think of this hypothetical: you have 2 rads than can...

    Inexpensive, simple, full mechanical keyboard?

    I've got a mildly "gamerfied" Corsair K70 that I like alright; but I'd like to try Leopold down the road. Leopold brand @ https://mechanicalkeyboards.com I think they look pretty traditional unless you pick a model with brightly colored keycaps. Full sized models seem to start at $124.
