@all the CRT fanboys, how are you going to have 3 screens on swinging arm mounts, in an office?

Fan tech moves slow, the nf-f12 is still top end - and expensive. For really quiet, you might give a top end air heatsink some thought. The best is the nh-d15. It's huge tho.

It will more than satisfy your needs.

Perhaps you bumped something inside the case? Causing a short?

Water is a more efficient design than air, but more expensive. Given time, AIOs will be quieter and more effective than air. It took Noctua a lot of R&D time+money to get air cooling to where it is now (And Phanteks none to copy them). Of course innovation in the field has to find a way around...

I really like the look of the nzxt switch

Don't use prime... And delid.

There is not a safe limit, just do whatever you're cool with.

What could go wrong?

good job. I was a bit apprehensive when delidding the first time to :)

ebay. They'll cost you almost nothing, but they won't be new.

If it fits, it works.

That would be great! SLI 970's are an option for more cash and more performance, up to you.

Hopefully they make money doing so...

970 is a hell of a value. 290 is hot/loud/inferior.

Im not your target audience, I bought a deathadder 6 years ago and havnt used anything else then. But I'd say go for it.

The performance is so similar, just buy based on the prettier or more convenient heat spreaders.

Go for an AiO.

tbh I'd recommend spending the cash on stuff like headphones, mouse, keyboard. You really do feel money well spent there.

H80i is definitely better.

Adding more fans is probably not going to help much. Plus, fans aren't free.

red, based on what I've used.

What's your cooling? And don't use stress tests that use AVX2

Not a fan of the mesh on the front at all. And what do we have to do to get a GLASS side panel? Make them ourselves? I understand on lower end cases, but we should be seeing glass panel on high end cases.

I don't know why they don't make preassembled/filled AiO's out of premium components (the ones we buy for our custom loops), and sell them for premium prices. It moves inventory and expands customer base.

Well we didn't really need another 212 clone.

I have found something I did not know existed. A community of people who seem to... like CRTs... Are there any pros to CRTs?

Hi :) I'm new to [H], but not to MSI GPUs. Definitely my go to brand. Lightning 4 life!

all X99 stuff can really kick out some heat. I'd say if you want air cooling, settle only for the top shelf stuff like the D15. But tbh I'd say look at a top notch AIO. Pricey, but so is X99 in general. You could be in hot water real fast if you bump voltage and mhz just a little bit and then...

If you can do 49x at <1.3V you have a nice CPU. Mine takes 1.35, and won't run r11.5 @ 50x no matter what volts. You want to research delidding tho if you're hitting 78C with less than 1.3V, regardless of frequency. It sounds pretty scary, but it's really quite easy/painless. after delidding...

lol. Rest assured, you're doing something wrong. I highly doubt there is a single haswell CPU in the entire world that can truly only do 3.8ghz. If you're really new try using the mobo's auto OC tool and then when it's finished just ratchet vcore down manually.

buy a used 7970. 100% the best option by a long shot.
