  1. i reseated the cooler, It did appear to have a bubble in it based off what the past looked like. my temps are slightly better at 69 idle and 77 throttle. any ideas on why it still isn't cooler than the stock cooler?
  2. i was curious about the wiring. the diagram doesn't show all connections. two for the fans. one for the block, the diagram shows one for the pump but i have two plug for the pump and im not sure where to plug the second pump in at. sorry if my wording is confusing.
  3. thanks ill let you know after im done might not be till tomorrow morning.
  4. I removed the plastic cover on the block. i havn't tested any load i just installed it. i thought it was pretty high and dont understand why its mroe than twice what the stock cooler was. at first it was 77C now it is 84 C and ill i have been doing is googing.
  5. I just installed my h220x AOI cooler. With my stock cpu cooler I had cpu temps around 95 degrees F, with my h220x I now have a cpu temp of 160 degress F. did I do something wrong. I used about the size of an uncooked grain of rice of mx-4 in the middle of the cpu and installed the cooler. All the lights are on and all fans are spinning. Any idea whats up?
  6. Also it looks like you can order custom print sets but i dont see the option to set that up on their site
  7. I looked there but it appears that they are not backlite compatable am i wrong?
  8. So i just bought my new keyboard.. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823129035.. and i am looking for custom keycaps. I would like to do a similar setup as this ducky http://www.duckychannel.com.tw/en/Ducky_Premier_DK9008P_bu+gy.html. I would also like the wsad and 12345 to be blue. my problem is that i want the keys to be backlite compatiable. if i got to choose a preference i would like rougher keys opposed to smooth glossy keys. From all my searces i haven't been able to find what i want so i was hoping someone could help point me in the right direction.
  9. you can try pcmark 8 there are also other benmarking software you can try just search in google.
  10. so i fixed my problem. it turned out i was using a 6 plus 2 connector instead of 4 plus 4 connector for the cpu. i feel like such a retard
  11. What is RMA? i assume its return to the manufacturer or something but don't know about the acronym.
  12. the psu is a 1200 nzxt hale90 v2. its only the mobo cpu and ram i have plenty of power. The psu seems to work fine when i do not have the 8 pin cpu connector plugged in. but when i plugg in the cpu power and press the power the psu makes the clicking noise and the power button on the mobo doesn't stop it i have to flip the switch on the psu. i really would hate if the psu is DOA but i know it happens just why does it have to be to me?
  13. So i'm building my first pc and i have my mobo on the box to test everything. i installed the cpu, stock cpu cooler, ram, and plugged in the 24 pin power connector. i powered it up and it didn't run cause i forgot the 8 pin. i plugged the 8 pin in and when i press the power the psu makes a loud ticking noise, the fan doesn't run and i have to flip the switch on the psu to turn it off. any ideas?
  14. i thought dual lan only helped when you had two isp's?
  15. Hey guys the title pretty much explains it all. i'm looking for a mother board and have come down to these two. i would prefer the asrock cause i have a blue theme but from what ive gathered asus is a much better brand. Any thoughts on which one is better; more features, better reliability, better bios updates ect...
  16. you need to look into positive and negative air pressure. neutral pressure doesn't really exist in the real world. Basically if more air is being pushed out than pushed in you will have negative air pressure. Since the intake fans cant match the exhaust fans the air has to come from somewhere usually all the vent hols in the back off the case, hints more dust. positive air pressure is the opposite and instead of excess air coming in the vent holes the air will exit the vent holes. the difference in pressure may cool your system differently you will just have to experiment. Also dust guards play a factor as they restrict air flow. -- Edit -- I'm looking into the kraken x61 or the h220x, but haven't quite decided yet.
  17. as with anything you get what you pay for. i've got the 730 series myself
