Butterfly Valley posted:Wtf is ‘semi-passive cooling’ pretty sure you need good airflow in the case or it doesn't perform right. tbh it seems really stupid and edge-case usable, and it's expensive. e, LOL and they themselves recommend putting a fan on it in overclocking situations. like wtf.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khbvxsPTI84 LifeSunDeath fucked around with this message at 18:12 on Jun 15, 2021 |

It does look cool in the case, even being so chonky it kind of makes the whole thing flush looking and I'm down for that. Wonder how it would perform submerged in mineral oil.

I guess the idea is no moving parts machine, that's gotta be the idea, but it's pointless. They even have a passive cooling GPU in there LOL . The heat will rise out the case, that's all good, but at this point having it inside of a case wouldn't be optimal at all.

Pilfered Pallbearers posted:I know we’re all getting a laugh at this, but seriously there are use cases where an entirely silent PC is incredibly important. Tell me the use cases, I've been waiting to hear the use cases all drat day. this all feels like some audiophile thing, they're trying to remove all moving parts but they still have to use a power supply with a fan, so they low key don't talk about that.

Rexxed posted:I usually see silent pcs for things like recording studios. Even an in home one is going to have computers involved these days and big air coolers with no fans on a 65 watt CPU can usually be run fanless or with just one 200mm system fan. Back in the day there were some power supply shrouds to that would attach to the outside back of the PSU and have baffles to cut down the fan noise while letting air through. ok fair enough

This is a weird question...have any of you had issues with M.2 drives having problems with certain games, or corrupting installs? It happened to me but it's probably and edge case since it was a compressed pirated game, but the same thing installed fine on my old system without M.2 drives. I also had issue with a legit game I bought but it's early access so I'm not surprised...same game ran fine on old system and just won't load on new one. Thankfully everything else I've installed has worked just fine. I have this theory in my mind like M.2 works too fast and the programing isn't happy about it and errors out the process while trying to load it. I heard something similar happened when the consoles were moving to SSDs and they had to work out how to account for the timing of the data and it caused issues with some games.

Scruff McGruff posted:turns out it was actually bad RAM causing the problem. I suppose that's the weak link in my system, I bought some cheaper ram and it's also the only thing overclocked, but I've had zero stability issues you typically get when the ram is clocked wrong or failing. Likely is just the programs though, games be weird like that on certain hardware sometimes.

Pilfered Pallbearers posted:Should be pretty easy to pull down the clock, test, and readd the clock if needed. A clock that's stable enough to run windows could easily be unstable enough to cause issues like this. fair enough I'll do some testing with it factory clocked.

njsykora posted:You don't need an SSD heatsink, especially since most motherboards now will have one built in. my mobo has 3 slots, top slot came with shroud and I don't like the way it fits onto the drive, I got that same WDblack with shroud in the bottom slot, I want to use the middle slot but my GPU blocks any shroud, so would have to go naked. I wish they would place the slots away from PCI area somehow.

Bouchehog posted:Bit of an issue with the build for my brother (full specs here). The EVGA 3070 I've sourced is too long to fit the case with the CPU cooler radiator (a Corsair iCUE H100i): Looks like somebody's either getting a new case or getting an air cooler...either one is around the same price. Or you put the radiator outside the case.

Sure you guys watch this channel already but if not it's a great resource for new hardware coming out. This newest video just makes me laugh, massively expensive fancy case, comes with nothing inside it, no fans, no harddrive cages, nothing...it's just a huge box that costs 500 dollars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HX4Y_KHM40

Furnaceface posted:Yeah its the GPU. I was really hoping it wasnt but deep down I knew. I just checked for first time in a while and newegg has cards listed in stock, like 2060's...but obviously overpriced. Still interesting that there's some options that aren't ebay. https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-geforce-rtx-2060-gv-n2060oc-6gd/p/N82E16814932115

This is the newegg marketplace and not newegg selling that card. that is true..ugh I wish this card shortage was over it's all so wacky. Have games companies finally bent the knee and just given up making good graphics games for pc yet, cause it's gonna happen if this keeps up.

DarkHorse posted:Old PC on the fritz. Repair or build new? I had one generation prior to your CPU and when I looked into upgrading my system, I thought "this poo poo is almost 10 years old, I might as well just get the most current gen and really feel that upgrade." They just dropped new processors, and some are cheap but you'll essentially be doubling your performance on a single core. Also moving to DDR4 memory will boosts performance. Just take the hit and get an 11000 series CPU/mobo/memory, it's like 6 generations of intel cpus upgrade.

I put the mobo on top of the mobo box. I put the cpu, ram and cooler on then. I grab the whole thing by the cooler and put it into the case, then I put the GPU in. :/ it works just fine and I've done it a number of times.
