Currently using a Meshify C, and I like it. But want to get some more air on my GPU, and I'm not the biggest fan of a PSU shroud, I feel like it's wasted space. Having a second zone/chamber allows for better cable management IMO. I know the PC-011 XL can fit a DH15, but that's something a bit...

So as I understand it, the newer Gen 4 NVMe run a bit hotter than previous generations. I've seen some on Amazon with an option to come with a heatsink, and my MSI Unify has 3 heatsink covers for the 3 M.2 slots. But it seems (from what I've read) that cooling down these drives, or certain...

Basically the title - 3700X, which mobo would you go with?

PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor ($324.76 @ Amazon) Motherboard: Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS ATX AM4 Motherboard ($189.99 @ Amazon) Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($157.99 @ Amazon) Storage: Inland Premium 1 TB M.2-2280...

I recently purchased an Arctic Freezer 34 eSports Duo air cooler. Installation was going great until I tried to mount the cooler to the CPU - the pegs provided by Arctic weren't high enough for the mounting brackets to pass through, let alone try to screw the thumb screws onto the pegs. I have...

So I got a Caselabs BH7 case from someone here, and it's an awesome case. I'm limited in GPU choices because the clearance with fans is 282mm. Looking at what's out there, I've narrowed it down to two choices: 1. Powercolor RX 5700 XT Red Dragon 2. Sapphire Pulse RX 5700 XT Any thoughts or...

Building a new rig from the one in my sig. That one is just over 4 years old, and I'm thinking it's time for a refresh. Want to move over to Red Team, and I'm looking at the 3xxx-x series. If I'm just playing games, with some VM activity thrown in there for infosec work, would the 3900x be...

I've picked up 2 Arctic Liquid Freezer 120's to cool the CPU and GPU (using a NZXT Kraken G12) in my setup (will likely upgrade to a used 1080ti shortly). I have a Corsair Air 240, but I doubt that will fit. Any suggestions for cases that will fit this setup, and suggestions for air...

I have a pair of ARX A1B (I believe made by Chane) hooked up to a Yamaha RX-V473 Receiver. This was purchased back around 2013. No complaints, but was thinking of soundbars as I'm getting a new TV soon. Any thoughts as to why I should/shouldn't switch to a soundbar?

Is the Corsair Air 540/240 still considered the best dual zone case?

While there are quite a few options when it comes to electric sit/stand desks, I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions or recommendations for a manual sit/stand variant. I've looked and found something close in this from Husky (seemingly only available via Home Depot), but it's not as deep as...

So with Case-Labs going the way of the Dodo (RIP), are there any other case makers out there that produce cases that are (relatively) overbuilt? I took too long on pulling the trigger on getting a case from CL, and will rue my indecision going forward.

Shot in the dark, but is there a PNY rep that lurks the [H]ardForums? I've been trying to register my new card, but none of the numbers work for the website.

I recently built a new computer, and would like to transfer my Windows 7 Pro key from my old rig to the new one. I did a clean install of Windows 7 Pro, tried to validate it, but could not as the key is an upgrade. Any thoughts as to how I can transfer over my working key from my old rig? Is it...

Anyone know if there any plans to release a backplate for the PNY GTX 980 ti? If so, any inkling when? If not, could the EVGA backlate be used instead? This is for reference design only, obviously.

Basically the title of the thread - I have a NIB 3770k, and am building a new rig (I can post specs if desired, everything is either on the way except for CPU/MB). However, finding decent/reputable LGA 1155 Z77 motherboards is pretty hard. The only one of note that PC Hound can find is the...

So I'm in the process of planning out my next major build and I saw that there now exists the possibility of using an AIO cooling unit (i.e. H60) to cool video cards. I'm interested in this for noise reasons... and why not? Also, if I decide to really splurge and build a HTPC outside of my main...

Hey all, I recently picked up a pair of ARX A1B's and now looking to get floor stand speakers. I measured that sitting down my ears/face would be around 28" - 32" up from the ground. The footprint of the A1B's are 7.1 x 10.25 inches. Any suggestions for any stands? I live in a city, so no...

1. What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming - mostly console emulation, want to be able to get up to PS2/Wii/Gamecube and others that came before them, HTPC/Playback, watching TV via CableCARD 2. Will you be overclocking? No 3. What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included in...

I recently started to assemble a little HT - got ARX A1B speakers, Vizio 50" TV, and a Yamaha RX-V473 receiver. I figured the next logical step would be to get a HTPC. I'm only used to building desktop/tower types, not something in a smaller form factor. So I'm turning to the big [H] for...
