Oh god what a putz. I have a 1080Ti that I paid a fortune for. I won't be buying a new card for years. But when I do, if performance is similar, this type of immaturity is what would make me go AMD. That's what it is - immaturity. You can speak about your competition with indiference, even...

Thanks. My case doesn't support a spinning HD at this point, so I'd have to get a non-NVME SSD. I assume that with the larger size, having an integral "heat sink" that is the case... That it would likely handle the task easily. That said right now my two case fans are at max - one pointed...

I'm a little bewildered. My SSD temps seem to be causing instability. At reasonable case fan speeds, it seems to be related to my video card putting out heat nearby. Setting a manual GPU fan speed seems to help quite a bit. (I have 3 case fans and 2 AIO fans, so I'm not yet sure there is NOT...

I am using HWINFO. Can you give me an idea of the SSD temp that is under the chipset cooler? And your PCH temp as well? (As I assume that's measured in the same area and would be a good indicator of the temp rise I could use versus my situation) I was thinking of that corsair fan but would...

I'm using the DIMM.2 riser... Not the chipset cooler. Debating moving it under the chipset cooler, but my 2TB 960 Pro is rather expensive and if something goes wrong, I'd prefer not to have hassles with Samsung on the warranty with that thermal pad. (Not sure if it would come off well) Right...

Anyone using nvme with this board? Having trouble getting good temps in the DIMM.2 location. Have pretty good case ventilation - just that area has a lot of impediments to good airflow.

It's substantial. Very from what I remember when I installed my MB.

It's possible to do with a "services" hack. I'll have to go that route I guess... I'll look it up later. Will try to respond. Thanks!

Can you point me in the right direction so as the card is defaulted to 180w by default? I mean if I put it in my startup folder, it won't run as an admin without confirmation... Win10 isn't exactly convenient with respect to running things as admin without that prompt. Any wisdom for me...

Thank you - I knew I had seen that somewhere, but finding it was something I thought impossible... :)

Hey does anyone have any suggestions on how to take the top off the modu-vent? I got the whole assembly off the top of the case, but the manual is COMPLETELY USELESS in explaining how to separate the metal part from the moduvent filter and "register". I don't want to break it.

I really didn't want to take the top cover off... For noise concerns and for dust. (my current case gets a lot of dust of course on the top of it. Easy to clean it off when you just wipe it) But I may have to move my AIO to the top to improve airflow... And get my 960 pro temperature down...

The cycling is about ever 25-30 seconds... Fan Xpert is allowing me to apply fan smoothing. Which I don't quite follow what it's doing - but it's doing something. It may be doing hysteresis. Fan Xpert is far from perfect, lags on my system bad... But it may give me my sanity back. I should...

Not speaking for pendragon... But I think if you ask specific questions after doing research, then you'll get (potentially) a lively discussion.

I tried downloading speedfan but it didn't recognize my sensors and didn't have an existing config for it. Strangely the oscillations seem to have quieted down. Still there, maybe a little less since I don't hear the fans spinning up and down. I'll have to try to play more with SpeedFan...

The AIO is an Enermax AIO 280, and it just has a 3 pin connector for the pump (connected to the W_PUMP+ connector and the fans (together) to the CPU fan connector. So no way really to do that unless I'm misunderstanding? Thanks for the help though!

I have an overpowered system... 1950x, 64GB of RAM, 960 Pro SSD. (Asus Rog Zenith Extreme MB) One of the things I'm using it for is as my main Blue Iris server. With only really BI running, my Tdie and fans oscillate to an uncomfortable degree. (Meaning the noise from the constantly...

I have the Enermax 280. Amazing performance from a sound perspective.

Unfortunately AB isn't working to limit power. I tuned it to 65%, which is the same as 180W I think... Didn't do anything really once mining started. HWINFO still shows 277W.

Wow. Big difference. Same or better hash rate, with um maybe 100w less power? Oh and the (near) silence. Bliss. (This card is already really quiet) Oh no, did not read you as harsh. At all. I'll probably try using Afterburner to limit upon next reboot, just for kicks.

Ok boss I'll give it a shot :) I should probably research a bit to see what good OC settings are for my video card...

I'm guessing the above will reduce power and clock, not just voltage? (The power slider in Afterburner can be moved so I could just do that, but again was hoping to keep frequency where it is.)

I have an MSI Gaming X Trio 1080ti. MSI Afterburner, even after allowing voltage control - will not let me undervolt. It's currently showing 1012mV, and the voltage slider is all the way to the left. Any options to undervolt, or is that voltage really as low as I could go without having...

Bingo - that was it. When setting up Win10, I kind of just followed the standard install. (I don't think I changed anything from default though?) I've resolved everything earlier today. Appreciate the help.

By clicking on Properties of This PC, and selecting location... There's a default button. Pressing that, Windows made everything better. It reset (automatically) to the appropriate location, and even moved the files. As far as how that happened to begin with... No idea. There are other...

I disabled it using the group policy editor. Clearly something is wildly amiss. But I don't drink and I don't download a lot of crap. The only things I've downloaded relate to setting up a new system. Still, I am doing a virus scan now as I admit that is certainly still a possibility. Avast...

Forgive me but perhaps I'm not following. In my Users:UserId: Desktop directory (it exists)... But it's empty. If I create a file there, it does NOT show up on ny live desktop. In my Users:UserId:OneDrive: Desktop - if I create a file there, it shows up real-time on my desktop. I swear I'm...

I took no specific action to do anything with OneDrive. Other than of course the standard install process of Win10, and I may not have realized I was enabling OneDrive. I don't so much have a problem with them bundling that. I have an issue though that I did NOT manually do anything to my...

I guess I shouldn't be surprised. The parasites at MS embedding OneDrive and integrating it so as to create a real hassle to remove. Ok parasites is a strong word but really I'm pretty disgusted. My desktop is actually in the OneDrive folder? What? The gigabytes of random crap I put there...

That's beautiful. Wish I didn't have an EATX MB. I can't use those cable routing slots which of course means the power cables need to go where the "modesty" cover is. My case is a mess, but it's non-windowed, so I can live with it.

Thanks - that is it. Turns out I'd need the Pro version for that screenshot though :)

http://www.guru3d.com/index.php?ct=articles&action=file&id=33551 From: http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/asus-rog-zenith-x399-extreme-review,24.html My 960 Pro is not performing (according to Magician) anywhere near it should be, even with the Samsung NVME driver. That's my MB, so I want...

I bought two the other day. 1 white. 1 red. Red is pre-clearing now. So how is BB with returns? Do they ask questions? I mean the (white) package was opened, but I didn't shuck it. I could live with the white of course but considering I don't really NEED it right now (thought I did)...

So I've had this case since Monday now... And a couple quirks. 1) In the alternate configuration, pushing the modesty panel (drive tray holder) to the left side of the case... Will not support the external drive bay. So if you don't plan on putting tons of drives in the case and just want...

Ok. Now I just have to figure out if I want to stop using AM altogether and just mine monero... Thanks... (And sorry I'm too in love with my MSI Gaming X Trio to give it up :) ) Although a good part of why I spent so much on it was that I intended to mine when not using my PC. If I can't...

Ok so I'm a newbie. But when I setup AM (using MPH) the other night, and it started mining Digibyte (Skein)... Showing monthly revenue of $330, I was floored. (1080 ti, stock, some benefit from my 1950x but not much). Fast forward a day, and it's instead mining other things like you'd...

If you're interested in quiet cooling... Run, don't walk... To pick up this AIO. It's interesting because when I initally turned on my high end build (1950x, 64gb, 1080ti)... With this AIO.. My case was completely open. And it was loud. I was worried. that it wouldn't quiet down much when...

A 1950x, in a Fractal R6. This review suggests strongly that it's a good idea to go go with the AIO. Granted it's comparing the Noctua to a 240, but in the [H] review we see the 280 beats the 240 in temp (barely) but sound (in a big way). I just hope it runs reliably, I don't want to be...

Damn how did I miss that. Oh yeah I was about to go to sleep when I read the review and realized I could move to an AIO to lower temps by using this instead of the Noctua 14 dual fan. At least I think I can. Unfortunately the Coolermaster ML120 review was done with a Ryzen 7, so the Noctua...

So I'm about to build my general purpose workstation, and I was thinking of installing ESXi on it. (standalone, passthrough monitor, keyboard, mouse to one VM) One of the things it would be used for is for Blue Iris (on a second VM), so frequent (or even infrequent) reboots would kind of suck...
