    heavygrounds got a reaction from RedXIIIKM in H440 Temps?   
    As a person who owns a H440... Yes things here are a bit toastier.
     
    I have an i7 4790K overclocked to 4.6Ghz and it reaches 60ºC under extreme load (using an H100i)
    And my GTX780 (with the stock cooler) [overclocked to 1000ish mhz] stays under 75 under full load with the fan at 60-70%
     
    However, there's a great solution to all of this... If you do not feel comfortable with your temps, the front panel is very easily removed and will reduce temps by 10º.
    This is not necessary as all of the temps mentioned above are very acceptable.

    For these programs you usually have to enable GPU accelaration or GPU compute.

    A thought for the future, what about a PC port. In unity I know that it's quite easy to develop a multi platform game.
    With steam greenlight, all we need is the community to vote for our little game, and we could release it as a free to play on steam. I'm pretty sure that if this ends well @Linus will mention the game on a WAN show or something.

    I'm an audio engineer, I usually work in mastering music or recording bands or producing beats for singers. I also make music, I could help with the soundtrack. So if you need something of that sort, PM me.

    This seems like a plan, and I think Logan should be the last boss. Or at least a boss.
     
    We should also have a Noctua world, where everything is "vomit cream" and "poop brown"
     
    Also we could include sound effects from his videos, for example, every time Linus gets a kill, the game should play the "hahaaaaa" sound from this video (minute 1:00) :

    So far, we have a platforming game featuring Linus or Slick jumping over cowbells. Everytime they jump, they swear in an oddly comical manner.

    Motherboards do that to ensure a safe boot and you're only overclocking something when you exceed the rated specs of a piece of hardware. Setting 1600Mhz RAM that was set to 1333Mhz by the motherboard back to 1600Mhz is not overclocking.

    heavygrounds got a reaction from alpenwasser in The best solution for storage in my scenario?   
    The hard drive question is complicated, but it comes down to this: If you have enough space in your case and don't mind paying the extra cost, 2 1TB hard drives is more reliable (as you mentioned). While 1 2TB hard drive will be much cheaper.
     
    As far as SSDs go: SDDs are extremely reliable and as long as your not moving large data in and out of it, it will last you forever.

    Perfect. Thanks for the recommendation. My only worry is the battery usage; the reviews say it sucks down AA batteries like crazy. Maybe I'll just buy a good set of rechargeable AAs

    Like W-L said, LEDs are pretty directional, so if you just want UV lights, not LEDs specifically , then I would suggest buying cold cathodes. I've just bought the 30cm Revoltec UV twinset two weeks ago, and they are awesome!

    If you're using it to light up UV Reactive cables or tubing, i.e. shit around the motherboard area, somewhere around the 5 1/4 inch bays I found it fairly easy to hide it, but still get a decent amount of "glow" from the cabling. I'd show you a photo, unfortunately, my case is in a million bits right now and I didn't put the led strip into the temporary donor case

    heavygrounds reacted to W-L in UV LEDs?   
    UV LED's are just as reliable as any other LED as long as you run them at 12V or the specified voltage there shouldn't be any problem, as for safety concern and damaging components there shouldn't be any worry since UV LED's for affordable prices are never "true" UV LED's they emit some ambient light and have a wavelength on the very low end or close to the UV spectrum hence not have any damaging effects. Even though they are not "true" UV LED's I wouldn't be wise to use them for desk lighting or since it may produce eye strain since it is still within a small margin or close to the UV spectrum.
     
    As for disadvantages, the LED's have a limited viewing angle, usually 120 degrees, so placement of them may require some trial and error to get nice even lighting compared to cathodes which emit light at 360 degrees and just bounce light off all surfaces giving what most people define as a more "ambient glow."

    I'll just say this from experience, I own a Corsair RM and I've never heard the fan, even under full load. And I'm sure that the same applies to the AX series.

    Luke is Love, Luke is Life.
    i was only 9 years old, I loved Luke so much, i watched all of his video's and livestreams.
    i pray to Luke everynight thanking him for all the joy i've been given.
    Luke is Love I say, Luke is Life.
    Linus overhear me and calls me a peasant.
    I knew he was just jealous of my devotion to Luke.
    i called him a midget.
    he takes all my noctua's and sends me to go to sleep.
    i'm crying now, and my pc is overheating.
    i lay in bed and it gets really hot.
    A cold is moving towards me.
    I feel something touch me.
    It's Luke.
    I am so happy.
    He whispers in to my ear "this is a h100i''
    He grabs my case with his powerful and large hands and puts it on it's side.
    I'm ready.
    i open my side panel.
    I install the h100i.
    it bearly fits but i tuck it in for Luke.
    i can hear the case cringe as i'm mounting the radiator.
    i mount the pump on the cpu.
    i want to satisfy Luke.
    The pc roars as Luke turns on the pc.
    Linus walks in.
    Luke looks him straight in the eyes ans says ''it's LukeMediaGroup now''
    Luke leaves trough the windows.
    Luke is Love, Luke is Life.
