Thank you guys very much. Guess I'll buy a roll and see how it goes. So I should maybe wipe the gpu with alcohol, right? Some of the padding on the backside doesn't feel like it is going to hold up. Already had the heatsinks fall off once with the 2mm pads, lol. Is it ok to put thermal tape...

Will this work? https://www.amazon.com/Ceatech-Thermal-Adhesive-Conductive-Computer/dp/B075F37SQG/ref=mp_s_a_1_9?crid=UIMNE4Q9YGPD&keywords=Thermal+Conductive+tape&qid=1672610170&sprefix=thermal+conductive+tape+%2Caps%2C113&sr=8-9 Spent a lot on some heatsinks that I won't be able to use 😁...

I tried but I am getting no stickiness. It seems like things were stickier with the 2mm geglid pads(still wouldn't trust it with a vertical gpu.) I threw those out because the temps jumped all the way up whenever a game was clicked on. Right now all the heatsinks are on the backside and I am...

Yea, I realized that after I threw them out, lol. I remember doing this a few years ago and the heatsinks/pads were a lot stickier. I didn't use the tape and the heatsinks/pads were on fine upside down. Is there a good brand of thermal tape that I could purchase? Thanks

Hey guys, I decided to put an aio cooler on my gpu. Thing is the the thermal pads aren't sticky and the heatsinks keep falling off. I tried to put the heatsinks on the backside but the vrm went up to a 107 degrees before the pc shut down. Is tbere anything I can do about this? I have these sinks...

1. I didn't try 3800. I just played it safe and went with 3600, lol. I will try 3800 soon. 2. I tried XMP on his system and wasn't able to boot. This is with a Gigabyte B660 Auros Master DDR4. The RAM is at 18-22-22-42 DDR4-3800 with 1.35V right now, memory ref clock auto, gear mode 1, CMD...

thank you. I used those timigs and everything worked great. Was able to boot up with no issues. Would you happen to have to have setting/timings for the DDR4-5000 kit for Intel...

ok, thank you I just set the timings to 18-20-20-20-40 @ 1.38V and everything booted up fine. I turned on CPUZ and it shows 18-20-20-38 will that be an issue? thanks

I did do some research, but I'm going to look for a comprehensive guide this weekend. Yeah, they def can't be random settings. I picked those numbers because I've seen them on RAM running at 3600/3800 (Ex. 18-22-22-22-42 @ 3800 1.45V). So I'm not sure if I can use 38 or 42 for 18-20-20-20 @...

A few questions: should I set a higher value towards the end? like 38? So for instance, 18-20-20-20-38 @ 1.38V Or would it work better setting it at 42? also, can I buy another set of the Hynix DJR 8gbx2 kit and have no issues running 32GB on an Intel setup? Thanks. Really appreciate the help.

ok, thanks. I do have a lot of cooling, but for some reason it went back down to stock settings after trying 18-22-22-22-42 1.4V and 1.45V (1900 IF, 1T, Geardown Mode enabled). Is it unstable? I feel like I am having a harder time getting to 3800 after putting in both kits. I tried both kits...

Yea, do you have recommendations? I recall putting some on my r9 290 when I used the Kraken G10 for it thanks

lol, just found that link. Seems like it is worth a shot

really? so you're stating that there no options for the 3 series? So I can't buy a bracket for the 3080ti? that's a bummer

Hi, I'd like to purchase an AIO bracket for the 3080ti. Seems like there are issues with the G12 and the 3080. Will this be a problem for the 3080ti? Are there other brackets that work better with the 3080ti? thanks

1440p resolution for games I would like to teak things and find that stability (if there is room)

Ttt

What is better for games? Cl 16-18-18-18-38 or 18-22-22-22-42? I think I am going to keep it at 3200. It seems more stable. Also, do you know what the CHA/CHB thing is? It shows 16-16-16-39 and I'm curious if I can run the RAM with those timings at 3600 1.35V thanks

bump $150 shipped

5600X (chip only, can add heatsink for extra). Used for like 2 days. Can do paypal/cashapp heat under shift

Hi, I have 4x8GB setup for my RAM. This is with the 5800x/Auros B550 Elite. I did the regular OC and it's at 16-18-18-18-38 @ 3200. I did another OC and it was working at 18-22-22-22-42 @ 3800. 1.4 Volts for both. Should I go with the CL 16 Timings? Not sure if more heat is being produced with...

yea, I know. I have some SSDs but I needed to use the 640gb because they stopped working And for some reason I am having bad luck with SSDs. I bought one years ago that works fine. I bought a 240gb SSD after that one that has my OS and is giving me that Automatic Start Up Error. My 3rd SSD with...

Hey, guys Hoping to look for a direct answer. I turned on bf2042 and got 100% disk usage. What should I set my min and max pagefile to with 32gb RAM? I currently have one 640gb hard drive thanks

Upgrade it. I went from 4790k to 3600x to 5600x and there was a big difference in BF2042. So, yea I guess it depends on the games

Yup, looking like it. I was going to go with 850w but read a few posts and decided against it. Better to play it safe and have the watts when needed, lol

Thank you. I found a great deal on the RMX1000 and bought it. Set everything up and it is running great so far. Very nice psu.

I made a thread about the 1000gq, lol Pc wouldn't start with the 3080ti. Turned on with a newer evga 750w. So yeah, don't think it can handle some of the newer/bigger cards. I'm buying a rmx1000 to replace it

Yeah, can't wait. And it has to be from Microcenter Is 850watts enough for future gpus? I don't mind getting 850 as long as I don't have to upgrade for 2 to 3 years Thanks

Sorry, I thought the link got posted https://www.microcenter.com/product/646355/evga-supernova-1000-gt-80-plus-gold-1000w-fully-modular-power-supply Also looking at the MSI mpg a1000g https://www.microcenter.com/product/648357/msi-mpg-a1000g-1000-watt-80-plus-gold-atx-fully-modular-power-supply

Ok, so I am going to replace it Is this psu good for a 5800x/3080ti and future upgrades? I think it is but there was a review where a dude stated that it wasn't enough for a 12900k/3090 Thanks

I got this psu in 2014. Had no issues with it. I bought a 3080ti and the pc would not turn on (psu fan would spin for a few seconds). I tried a newer 750w evga psu and everything turned on. Is there something wrong with the psu? Or is it outdated and can't handle some of the newer cards coming...

Trying to do a bit of troubleshooting and was offered this advice. The keyboard keys will not light up with the cpu in the mobo Thanks

Yea, didn't replace the gpu. The thing is I tried dual link ports from both ports and it did not work. Can a bad ssd prevent the monitor and ssd from working properly? (I did swap the ssds)

I do have a mc but not sure what they can do. Basically replaced the whole thing and tried everything, lol. I'll take it to mc if I run out of options Really would like to know why the lights aren't working on the keyboard. What could cause that?

Replaced psu, mobo, cpu and still getting the same issue After hitting the power button the keyboard keys blink with the old mobo and no cpu and there are no lights with the cpu in the old/new mobo Is there a reason why? Thanks

I don't think so. I couldn't find anything And the same I just tried this with only the keyboard plugged in and now the lights underneath the keys are blinking. I hope it's some kind of sign, lol Thanks

Same issue after swapping ram. I guess buying psu/taking parts out are the next steps. I'll see how everything goes and will report back. Thanks.

System: Amd Ryzen 3600 Ddr - 2400 16gb 5700xt Auros b550 Windows 10 Keyboard/mouse/monitor does not work. Light on the side of the gpu on but the fan will not spin. All the fans work in the pc but go to full speed after I turn the pc on (fans would slow down and then go to full speed when...

ok, so it seems like there is no need to go over DDR4 - 3800 with Ryzen? I was hoping to get more performance by going over 4000, but I guess that won't happen. I don't understand why mobo makers put these all specs on their website. What's the point of stating that it supports 4600 if there's...
