    Air cooler thermal transfer issues

    everything is fine, ryzen 5000 series are hot due the nature of the architecture and precision boost nature, it will clock as high as possible, while keeping the temps at just thermal or power limits, also some motherboard manufacturers tend to have higher limits which makes some cpu's run...

    12700F underperforming 10700

    you should do some test with other benchmark before any conclusion, also, its the monitor resolution the same on both machines?. The thing is, Unigine Heaven it's really old unoptimized software for the more modern hardware, and focused more GPU performance not CPU.. if you want a more overall...

    No display after board upgrade

    it's a security mechanism of the TPM file which is configured to specific hardware. if you can access to the OS with Onboard, if you have bitlocker enabled, you should disable it first, boot and reconfigure it later. if you dont, then you should go to BIOS and disable, security device support...

    Undervolt GTX 950?

    decrease the power limit slider to ~75% and increase core clock +100mhz ~ 150mhz it should clock about the same or even more than stock clocks and still will undervolt and decrease power consumption.

    RTX is a joke

    if you ask me, there's a huge difference in some games with RT. Wolfenstein youngblood was a huge surprise to me on how better it is with all the RT features turned on and how well optimized that game is.. a game from the RTX 2000 days.

    Got a used RTX 2060 Super, just want to make sure these stress tests check out

    You can run MSi afterburner to undervolt the gpu and get a much reduced power consumption and better performance due to higher and more stable clocks. I know its a tier down, but I can do some test if you need or want from my daughters machine which is using a regular Zotac RTX 2060 which...

    PCIe 3.0 and 6600k Recommendations

    nothing to worry or concern about PCI-E 3.0 even on most modern GPUs, you should be more concerned about your CPU than PCI-E bandwidth, as there is where the major bottleneck will be, so I wont go any higher than RTX 2060/S RTX 3060 levels of performance, so go with any of those. for reference...

    Samsung S22 vs. Huawei P30 photo shoot-out

    I want to see that too.. Xiaomi did a great job with Xiaomi 12 and 12 pro cameras, last year i got a bargain offer on the 12 pro (not T version) and was highly surprised on how well the 50MP Sony IMX707 sensor works.

    LF fan controller/hub 5.25 recommendation

    I always recommend the NZXT sentry 3, it have a nice touch screen and temperature sensors so you can adjust your fans RPM based on those sensors, which its good to monitor intake/exhaust air temperature inside the case..

    Ampere vs RDNA2. Let's settle this (Neon Noir Benchmark)

    That themo doesn't use DXR on any form (In fact run in DX11).. so no hardware RayTracing specific library in any form of AMD or NVIDIA way, it is still using the 2019 libraries so any comparison will be most about brute force than anything..

    Control whether fan is on or off

    yeah, that's true when you have multiple case fans and a good amount of CFM intake over exhaust.. not when we are speaking about only one fan.. OP scenario it's with a single fan
  23. Araxie

    Control whether fan is on or off

    it is better to have an exhaust fan rather than one intake alone... intake alone if it's true will push fresh air inside the case, you will have no circulation or flow of the air inside the case at all, warm and hot air will win over fresh and all temps will be over the place.. having a single...

    Control whether fan is on or off

    nope, you can only do that on selected motherboards via fan header or with a fan controller.. connected directly to molex will be always on at full blast as long as the machine is also turned on

    PC won't boot with both keyboard cables plugged in

    be sure to be connecting the keyboard to an USB 2.0 port not 3.0.. also install the NGenuity Software and be sure Windows 10 Fast boot it's disabled..

    Asus 970gtx help

    best fan curve i've found over the year start with 0%RPM until 40C. then start at 40% fan speed the first point of the curve and increase 1% per degree, until 65C where it should be 65% fan speed, and typically those GTX 970 doesn't go beyond that at that speed... anyway, you can use MSI...

    BSOD help driver_IRQL

    IIRC 133x26 it's the default CPU multiplier, so you are overclocking basically by the BCLK 160*25 = 4000, you can decrease BCLK and increase multiplier and achieve the same frequency (if you don't want to keep increase QPI Voltage) 144mhz BCLK * 28 will achieve the same clock and probably will...

    what RAM kit are you using?. .1.35V? unlikely for DDR3 RAM.. those tend to use 1.5V - 1.65V between 1600mhz and 2400mhz... 1600mhz are typically 1.5V QPI/VTT depend mostly on what method of overclocking are you using? what BCLK and multiplier are you set? you may be required anything from 1.35V...
