  1. This video definitely got me worried about the cooling on my RTX 3080 FE. According to HWInfo, my memory got to 94C at it highest in a Enthoo Evolv ATX TG case. Making me really consider what the temps would be if I put it into an ITX case which would have few fans for cooling.
  2. Would this be enough peanuts for the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv? https://www.amazon.com/Static-Packing-Peanuts-Magicwater-Supply/dp/B07CT8SF1S/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1528210452&sr=8-2-spons&keywords=packing+peanuts&psc=1
  3. Can you explain? If im going to be outting the system back in the case box, how do i ship it lauong down? Like the box laying doen? Not sure i will have a lot of control of how they move it.
  4. We wont have a car with us and have one way flights booked so i dont see many other options unless i wanted to ship it myself.
  5. Just to clarify, does the expanding foam go inside the pc or inside the box?
  6. As part of a new job, we are moving from the midwest to New York City in just under a month. As part of the move, our new employer have provided us movers who will be taking all of our stuff cross country. One of the items they will be taking is my desktop. I am a little nervous about it but since we don't have a car and wont't be driving, I really don't see many other options. I wanted to reach out to community to see any tips or recommendation they have in how to be move my PC. At a minimum, i was planning on taking out my GPU and putting the case back in the original box it came in. Are there any other steps that I should take to minimize any damage to my PC?
  7. Update: I cleaned the full AIO and replaced the thermal compond and under load the CPU still reached close to 85c when play games like Assassins Creed Origins. Any ideas of how to lower my temps or determine if there is an issue with my CPU?
  8. They still spike up every now and then. Finally ordered some thermal compound and will replace it this weekend.
  9. I checked the screws for the fans and CPU block and they were all secured. I took some time to do a through cleaning of the fans and rad and I think that has helped. Guess only time will tell though.
  10. I haven't checked since I installed it a year ago. Could the CPU cooler become loose on it own? This is my first time with an AIO. Used the HyperX 212 prior to this AIO.
  11. I will have to buy some new thermal paste since it was pre-applied to the pump and didn't purchase any at the time.
  12. I have had my 6600k for about a year now and have not had any issue with cooling. Over the last few weeks, I have noticed that they fans keep spinning up and are getting louder. When I check the temps, the cpu package will spike up to the 80°s and even went to 92°c. The computer was ideal during this time and I can't seem to figure out what is causing the the issue. The CPU is overclocked to 4.5GHz and I am using the stock fans that came with the IO. Any suggestions of how to troubleshoot would be greatly appreciated.
  13. Talking with him, the laptop will be used to play AAA FPS (Battlefield 1, Call of Duty, Titanfall), Sims, and similar games. So would a 1060 or 1070 be the best option?
  14. I have a co-worker who reached out to me who is looking to buy a gaming laptop for his son. He was looking for the best value for a laptop with a screen size of 15". As I am not currently on the best gaming laptops in the market, I was hoping that community would be able to provide me with a few suggestions.
  15. I have had this monitor for just about a year now and over the last couple of weeks, I have noticed that it has started to get pixelated and sort of 3d effect during any motion screens weather that is during gaming or during watching youtube video. I have tried different cables with my monitor and I keep having the same issue. When I plug in my video card to my tv, I don't see any of these issues. Is there a way to solve this issue or do I need to contact Asus support?
  16. Aside for the Corsair K65 keyboard which was mentioned, are there any other recommendations for a keyboard that I can buy off the shelf?
  17. I am looking to pick-up a 10 keyless keyboard for work. As I have not tried any mechanical keys with switches outside of Red so if you can recommend a good key switch for typing. Additionally, RGB lighting is not a requirement as I not interested in paying a premium for this feature. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
  18. Great. Thanks for the reply. I was not sure if the timing has an impact since there is a set of corsair ram with the same frequency but different timing.
  19. I am looking to upgrade my ram in my PC and I was wondering if the following ram would be compatible with my P8P67 Pro Rev 3.1 as I can find any details regarding timings in the manual. I know that the board supports dual channel DDR3 up to 32gbs and a max of 8gb Dimms. Just want confirm before I waste money on incompatible RAM. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231660&ignorebbr=1
  20. Thanks for sharing this video. It is really helpful.
  21. I was wondering if a cpu upgrade would be beneficial for me given my specs below? Would I be getting significant performance increase given the overall cost associated with a new cpu?

  22. typographie - I am currently playing the game at the high preset. While I do look at FPS counter every now and then, I primarily turn it off when I am playing the game since I just really care about smooth gameplay. Maybe there will be some patching that will increase the games performance in this area.
  23. I recently purchased rise of the tomb raider and I am really enjoying the game. I am about 6 hours into the game and I am in the Geothermal valley and I am noticing stuttering even though I am playing the game on high. Does anyone know how I can fix this? Additionally, My current hardware is as follows: CPU: Intel 2500k 4.4 Ghz Motherboard: Asus P8P67 Pro Rev 3.0 RAM: Corsair Vengence 8GB GPU: 2x Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 G1 Gaming Case: Cooler Master 690 II Storage: M5 Crucial 128GB , WD Blue 1 TB, Samsung 850 EVO 1TB PSU: CORSAIR HX Series HX750 750W Display(s): ASUS VH236H 23-Inch Cooling: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus OS: Windows 10
