========= SOLITION: Removed GPU extension cables. Plugged PSU cables directly into GPU. ========= So I've been trying to track this down for a month or more now. I'm getting random BSODs in a game I play, Mech Warrior Online, but not when I play EVE, but also when I try to play Eve Vanguard...

Where do you put a 2230? I just requested this as a free product for review just because it is end of year and I have more write offs than I need (even though it's free, the IRS says the full retail price is what you earned as 'income.") Anyway, Sabrent is a good vendor so I took it. Now I'm...

I've always been a fan of Arctic Silver 5 since it came out about, oh, 100 years ago. Yeah, I'm getting old. I've tried many of them and the Arctic Silver 5 always performed nearly as well if not better than the latest 'space age' pastes. What I like about Arctic Silver is that after storing a...

I just had my 2019 Ryzen 3600 replaced because it was bad. AMD sent me a brand new one. P95 torture test as hottest setting, default. I posted a couple years ago about the heat, and it seemed like everyone was having heat issues even without OCing those chips. I never could get it under 80C in...

What are you video card temps with CPU and video card loaded with, for example, P95 and Furmark? RTX 3060 Ti AMP White Edition LHR Ryzen 3600 Monitoring: HWiNFO64 Card hits high 70Cs Hot spot 80-82C

As the title states, with the CPU running at A MAX OF 82C (78C avg) nd Furmark running full blast, HWiNFO64 reports 73 MAX GPU but 82 Hot Spot (max). This is on a non OC card running the factory fan profile. I noticed on another site that the #1 fan on this Zotac card will spin to 5000 RPM! The...

UPDATE 11/27/2022: Thanks to the gracious HARDOCP member "learners permit" who sent me a known good 3600X. I installed the 3600X on 11/17 and I have had zero errors or problems. The problem was a bad AMD 3600 CPU. --------Original Post Below--------- I recently had the same problem with a...

Just building my old rig in a new case I thought I would like, before I got sick of RGB. The case is hard to make good lighting wise but the cooling on this thing is insanely good. I attribute that not only to an open design, but because of the phenomenon called "convection." The case works like...

Corsair master Fan 120mm and 140mm. From my Amazon Review (also posted on ANANTECH): These fans are made of really high quality, dense plastics, that feel and sound dense, not tinny when you tap them. However, after actually looking at the specs, something I always do but this time I failed...

I've been having this problem for ages and it's driving me blind. I don;t want to use scaling becasue then what's the point of using a 1440 monitor, right? I increased font size to 126% and solved program text size, but the title bar, menu bars, and context menus are still really small, and they...

Killer Wi-Fi 6 AX1650x https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BGCTPZHT Any good? I also jsut read it can only be installed in laptops?

Has anyone attempted to swap out the WiFi card?

I've been wanting to switch to Linux for years, but lack of driver support and other nonstarters stopped me. Lately I've been reading and it seems like Linux is just about there, or at least enough that I can make it work. I have a limited familiarity with Linux, such as how to load and...

I installed it. It seems like it can work. I just can't figure out how to assign shit to it. Everything is lit, or was lit lol.

There use to be an RGB setting in the BIOS, but with this board, I'm not finding it. There is a setting to turn on or off boot RGB, but not RGB settings.

Motorola 7420 Win 11 All of the sudden, I'm getting 4-5Mbps. I can usually max out around 120Mbps, but I've really felt the slow down since Saturday night. As usual, Comcast says everything on their end is perfect, but didn't send out a tech yet.

I'm rebuilding in a new case and the new case has a front USB C port. However, my MB only has one 3.1 port . If there a plsitter/passthrough that would allow me to utilize the case's front USB C port, while retaining the USB A ports? I've found the converters that convert the entire internal...

Win 11 When I plug an external drive (USB enclosure with a 2880 NVME) it shows up in Bluetooth devices as connected to BT 3.0. If I unplug it, it goes away. It's not a BT device. Stumped me.

I'm preparing to do my first loop. I'm going to using hard tubing so I'll be bending it to my specs. I'm kinda lost. I'm only cooling the CPU and nothing else. I think all I need is the water block, pump, tank, radiator, fittings, coolant, and tubing? Current case Corsair Crystal 280X...

UPDATE 11/132022: Same thing with my new Giagabyte B550 ITX. It lasted about a month. WTF? Original Thread: Win 11 Pro MB: Gigabyte B450 Aorus pro Wifi ITX CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 RAM: GSkill x2 8GB each Everything should be in my sig. Problem: No video on boot. Fans running 100%. Seems like it is...

I just got this keyboard: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09PRMV1T6?th=1 I want to build it, but I've never done it before. I was thinking about going with Cherry switches and cherry caps to avoid any type of interference between the caps and switches, but I'm open to that. I'm not even sure if...

How do I go about choosing an alternative firmware for a router I have? It's a brand new TP LINK X55 DECO with 3 mesh capable routers. The only access to admin is a fucking stupid Android app that has almost zero options. There is a web based admin, but it has no changeable settings. it just...

I just got this card from the Zotac store. I wanted to wait until cards came down, but the main game I play just had a two year update to the Unreal 4 engine. With my old card I was getting 10-20 FPS at 1600x900 and all low settings. Unplayable. It's an MMO and many of these people I have...

I've never had this problem before,. Recently i tried to copy about 45GB of data to my Android Pixel4a phone, and after it completed, with no errors, only 481MB were transferred. I've recreated the problem by transferring individual directories. Watching the file transfer , the transfer just...

I've been wanting to post this but could never get the video done. I apologize for my lack of video editing and creating skills.

UPDATE: I unplugged all of my USB peripherals in order to let the drivers re-establish. Then I uninstalled the AMD chipset USB drivers, which caused the system to crash and auto-reboot. I've slowly been plugging back in my USB monitor connection, hubs, and other devices. So far no black screen...

Does anyone know how EMI noisy modern 12V computer supplies are, the better ones, of course? If anyone has any links to tests showing EMI or lack thereof, please post them.

I just noticed that the BIOS is no longer reporting the Sys 1 fan speeds. It's reporting CPU fan speed, Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro It has one CPU and one SYS fan header (ITX board) I also just updated the BIOS from F50 to the lasted, which is F62d. Sadly, I don't know if the BIOS was what caused...

When using bridge tied load, will your power supply need to have double the amperage in order to get the benefit from using BTL? ex: Power Supply 24V @ 5A Amp Chips: Both amps need 24V @ 5A to meet their single maximum power rating. So, if you use x2 of those amps, will yuor power supply...

I'm just looking for a 92MM CPU fan that is ARGB. I'd also consider a 92mm to 120mm fan adapter, but it needs to be at least an inch tall (the flatter ones have really poor air flow).

Win 10 2 Bluetooth Adapters Simultaneously? Is this even possible? I want to use one for a BT headset for gaming and one for music. So far, it's not working,. It seems like it is either one or the other. I'm using an internal Intel AC9620 adapter with BT 5 that supports aptX, and a USB dongle...

I need to benchmark a laptop I got free for a review. I need some comparisons for the bench mark too. I'd rather just run one and done, but If I need a couple, it is what it is. I already have Cinebench and was thinking about 3D Mark. again, rather have it all in one and done, if possible, with...

Does anhyone know how many amps these types of ARGB cables pull? know they can all be different, but was wondering if anyone had actual information about maximum amps they can pull. Also, does anyone now if the ARGB/RGB risers on any motherboards are over current protected?

- Product Type: KLEVV CRAS C710 SSD - Details: I'm trying to clone a Samsung 970 Evo to the KLEVV CRAS C710 SSD. I've tried twice now, and I'm getting an error that the system cannot boot. When I clone the Samsung 970 to another Samsung 970, the system boots correctly. Any ideas why I am...

I'm seeing this KLEVV drive for $50 bucks, but before chip prices went Borg, I bought my Samsung 970 Evo for $65 bucks. Then I see a Hinix 500GB that blows them both away for $75 today. Sure, $75 is 50% more than $50, but it's only 25 bucks too. The KLEVV is the poorest performer, by a long...

A while back I received an Amazon Vine offer for the Roccat Kone Pro Air. At the time, the MSR was $129.00, and I was like, "no mouse is worth 129.00." Well, for me, being poor and living in "a van down by the river," it's still too much, but it is damn well worth it. Here is a link to my...

Currently I've just been using my internal adapter's Bluetooth with AptX, and when possible, the WiFi I know WiFi can deliver high Fidelity with an internal WiFi card, but what about USB connections using ether a WiFi dongle to sink or Bluetooth aptX USB to sink? Can a USB connection really...

I'm just wondering why there are no 12V RGB hubs thta connect to the 12V RGB motherboard riser, since SATA can provide both 5V or 12V power?

I've just noticed wth a set of BT speakers that if I turn the volume knob on the speakers, the master Volume control in Windows 10 also moves. This is something I've never seen and it's dangerous. You can blow your ears or speakers. The way you should set speaker volume is to turn all of the...

I can;t find any information on this, even at the Intel site. Online, some say it does, some say it doesn't. AC9260 https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/99445/intel-wirelessac-9260/specifications.html If it doesn't, any suggestions on a card that uses aptX adaptive or at least...
