trace6x got a reaction from Mira Yurizaki in USB Type C To USB Type A adapter
I can't quite see without taking it apart but I can't find the extra pins from looking.
Thank you!

trace6x got a reaction from boggy77 in RAM won't run at advertised 3200mhz
Swapped the ram to the other slots and it boots up fine with the profile enabled. Thanks so much guys!

Thanks! Got myself a noctua cooler so that's fine.

trace6x got a reaction from Soujiro89 in Best thermal paste?
They're not all the same, different pastes perform better than others.

trace6x got a reaction from Mat_95 in 2nd hand GPU running very hot
Update I bought some thermal grizzly conductonaut liquid metal instead and replaced the old thermal paste on the card which looked pretty dry.
Was previously capping out at 83 degrees and I think the highest I've seen so far is around 77 degrees!
Non load temps are 10-15 degrees lower and ramping up the fan speeds under load now reduces temperatures to the high 60s.
Pretty happy with that result!

Thanks for the help, it was the CPU in the end, I got a replacement and it's working fine! Shame is was such a pain in the arse but I got there in the end.

trace6x got a reaction from Bradders in gtx 970 SLI vs 1070
Yeah totally, it'll even run Nvidia surround, not very well mind you but it does work.

trace6x got a reaction from Changis in Have I got my rad fan placement right?
Ah glad I got it right. That's a low as it'll go without crashing. I've just stepped it down to 4.5gz so I'm lowering from there.
Not quite the performance I was expecting but I suppose the chip must be around 6 years old by now so perhaps that has something to do with it

The 4 bits of plastic mean the fans are blowing outside the case right? Wish they'd put arrows on these things!

trace6x got a reaction from PrimeSonic in Corsair H110i GT Fan configuration
Unfortunately there's not enough room below my radiator for another set of fans, I did consider it though!
The Noctua fans are far better than stock Corsair ones, significantly quieter, now I want to replace all the fans in my case for them!
