    As seen in the news Asus, Gigabyte, and MSI will all bring out new X299 motherboards with the upcoming release of Cascade Lake-X release. Does anyone believe these boards are in any way superior for the new CPU's compared to the old boards? Sure they might have more M.2 slots and updated...

    ASRock Fatal1ty X470 Gaming-ITX/ac VRM temps?

    Hey there. I hope someone might know an answer to this, on how to read VRM temps on the ASRock Fatal1ty X470 Gaming-ITX/ac motherboard, as I've had 3-4 sudden hard reboots with this PC over the cause of 3-4 months. So yeah it's not often and it's been both in gaming and doing web browsing...

    Asus ROG Strix ITX B450 vs X470

    I have an ASRock X470 ITX motherboard that's being a complete PITA with its sound card (possibly poor drivers) and I'm considering buying a new one before I send this one in for RMA. For my 2600X and a possible upgrade to Zen 2 down the road, which one of the Asus ROG Strix ITX boards would be...

    Intel RAID Mode SSD Caching Option Missing

    I wanted to use the 'Accelerate' option of the Intel Rapid Storage Technology to use one of my excess available SSD's as a caching option for my RAID 1 array, however I simply cannot get this to work. I'm just not getting the option in the software to do it. Mainboard: ASUS X99-WS/IPMI (lastest...

    No 7nm GPU Announced From Nvidia on GTC 2019...

    So no new 7nm GPU announced from nvidia at this years GTC... Usually what we see is ahead of the launch of a new generation of gaming cards, is the professional version for datacenters, then the Quadro cards, and then shortly after the gaming cards. But this year... nope! What does this mean...

    New Case, Fractal R6 vs Be Quiet Dark Base 900

    Unfortunately I'm at this point again where I need a new case, as my good old Phanteks Enthoo Luxe TG has problems with vibrations coming from the HDD trays, which I can't solve as it seems. I get this humming and rattle sound at random times, and I need to find a better solution for a case that...

    Aftermarket Cooler for PNY Quadro P2000

    So I just ordered a PNY Quadro P2000 graphics card for use with my Plex transcoding, but knowing that tiny fan can be somewhat noisy from what I read, however there seem to be conflicting statements on that part. I wonder if anyone got a good idea for putting an aftermarket cooler on such a...

    X99 System Should One Consider an Upgrade In Near Future?

    To make a story short, my i7 7700K (Gamer PC) died on me, it was a botched de-lid job. I decided to sell off all the parts, keep the SSD's only and go back to my trusty X99 system which just had its 4 year anniversary. So I've decided instead of having 2-3 computers running 24/7, I will...

    Phanteks Enthoo Luxe 2018 Refresh

    Well it's that time again... It's spring (or a wet summer to some) and it's time to redo my Phanteks Enthoo Luxe build for 2018. I've used this case for nearly two years now and I really love this case, even though I have to admit more recent cases like the Fractal Design Define R6 and C models...

    Any Quality Differences Between Hard Tube PETG + Fittings?

    As the title says, I'm wondering if there's any noticeable differences between hard tube PETG and fittings from the manufacturers? Since I've never done hard tubing before, I'm really unsure which brand to go with. I was looking at XSPC's fittings since they look really nice, but they are 14mm...

    Fractal Define R6

    I need a new case for my server, as my Primo is so terrible made it's vibrating from both the fans and harddrives. I had to pull off the frontcover which was the main issue, but it still persists. This one is bound for the garbage truck! So my question regarding the Fractal Define R6: Has...

    XSPC Raystorm X4 Pro Kits

    Been looking into buying this set. Originally I just wanted a standalone EKWB SPC pump and RES X3 with the rest being XSPC, but it would actually cost quite a bit more than buying this kit instead, so I'm looking for some info I can't seem to find elsewhere. I'm curious how you adjust the speed...
