  1. Hello friends! Time to share! This is the first piece of a new set that I'l be releasing part by part over the coming weeks. https://soundcloud.com/raz3rofficial/sol-part-i-discovery Are there any other producers/musicians on here? If so come share your work here!
  2. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835708009&name=VGA-Cooling Soemthing like these? then some sort of thermal adhesive?
  3. the thermal pads on it are just old probably? And i dont just mean normal hot. I mean HOOOOOT. Like burn the piss out of you hot.
  4. Hello friends. Got a sweet deal on a sapphire dual X 7970 that had no fans. After removing the shroud and putting on some quality fans my core temps are great but mr vrm is hot as ballz. im looking for a way to fix this without spending lots of money. The problem is that sapphire just used thermal pads and the support plate. no heat sinks. actually might not be the Vrm im not sure.. its the square portions above the core in this picture. Ive got lots of cpu heat sinks. NB heat sinks and some closed loop coolers. Maybe i should zip tie something up?
  5. Hello friends. I'm trying to cool a server that uses an LGA 1150 socket cpu. A hyper 212 evo isn't doing the trick because of the high ambient temps (upper to mid 80s F). I was thinking of getting a H100 but I don't know how many hours of continuous use its rated for. This needs to run 24/7 for a few years. without too much maintenance. Also custom loop is NOT an option.
  6. So problem solved... Ends up the manufacturer had the bios chip in upside down ........
  7. the motherboard doesnt output video at all and doesnt support USB flash. I got it refurb from newegg. The manufacturer doesnt send out chips with the latest update. and the only place i could find to do it charges $150 and takes 5 days.
  8. Well I guess Ill try this tonight and post the results unless I can find an LGA1150 intel 3xxx cpu to update with (at no cost)
  9. cant afford to right now. also i live in middle TN... We dont really have computer stores... I'm surrounded by (shudders) walmart computer buyers. im not entirely sure either... I can try im just worried about bricking the old mobo (it has an A10 on it) and not fixing the new one (with the Pentium G)
  10. For the sake of saving time im going to just say Mobo A and Mobo B For fun I bought the Pentium G3258, the mobo (mobo A) needs a bios update to use it. Mobo B is a nearly identical FM2+ (amd_ motherboard with an AMD CPU. Both motherboards use the same bios chip. What I'm thinking of doing is sacrificing mobo B for mobo A. I have the bios for mobo A on a flash drive. I insert the drive into mobo B and update the bios to the Bios for mobo A. Then I move the flashed bios chip over to mobo A. Success? So problem solved... Ends up the manufacturer had the bios chip in upside down ........
  11. After all of my bad experiences with my 4790k I won't be going "team blue" again. I have no issues gaming with 4k only streaming. That would definitely be interesting. I'm guessing there is a motherload of tutorials on how this is done?
  12. Hello Friends. I've got a new motherboard coming in soon so its about time to overclock my cpu. There isn't really much i can say here other than that in these setups I do have a dedicated GPU. It boils down to this. Should I OC and use my Athlon 860k or OC my A-10 6700? I understand the 860k is newer but people seem to be getting much higher clocks out of the a10. Thoughts? Another thing I need to add. I've actually been gaming in 4k with the athlon 860k at 4.3 Ghz. I dont have any trouble in normal games (farcry 3, crysis, CoD, Assasins creed, etc) only In modded minecraft and when streaming.
  13. They had 1st gen Athlons in them originally. I think its time they got a 2nd chance.
  14. Half of the parts arrived! https://instagram.com/p/1CE8EBgTlc/?taken-by=douglasms3

  17. I would but higher up requested it. Plus I ordered everything 3 days ago.
  18. Hello friends! As the title states I'm building new computers for my office. I'll start filming the build log tonight. Until the video is up you can follow progress on the build at @raz3rofficial on twitter and @douglasms3 on instgram : ) Just thought I would share for the people interested specs will be FX-4350 antec earthwatts green 4g hyperX fury 120G hyperX SSD Gigabyte GA78-LMT-USB3 1TB WD HHD and i5- 4460 antec earthwatts green 8g hyperX fury 120g corsair LS force SSD 2 TB WD HHD MSI H81M-P33 there are 5 computers total ALSO working on this project this week! http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/340808-the-most-ghetto-custom-loop-of-all-time/ UPDATE: Half of the parts are here! https://instagram.com/p/1CE8EBgTlc/
  19. Ive got some 18" fans for it. and im definitely going to use some kind of biocide 0.o that episode of "whole room" was nasty.
  20. I didnt think about this. Is there something I can coat this heat sink in to prevent this??? Or some other liquid I can use? I know a lot of people have used mineral oil for submerged rigs. maybe that would work for this?
