    So I have a XLR mic and I'm looking to get an interface to upgrade from my Shure MVi Digital. I've always used my SteelSeries Arctis 7s with the small puck that allowed for audio in/out so I was able to run a 3.5 headphone jack from the Shure MVi to the puck to have side tone. I now have the Nova 7s with just the USB-C dongle so I can't have side tone anymore. I've had the Nova pros with the large dac and tried the same thing, but the way the audio settings are controlled, I have to have windows sounds at 90/100 in order to have side tone but I would go deaf lol... Any mic XLR interfaces that have a program to always have side tone through windows directly? I want to avoid using a wired headset again.. Any suggestions would be great. The built in Windows mic monitoring is trash and has bad latency... Thanks

    Here is my ltt x Noctua build version 1.5. i9 9900K + RTX 3080 FTW3! I upgraded my GPU, and went all M.2 storage leaving the raid HDDs behind. I will be looking to get another 3-4 years out of this system before doing a full upgrade. I'm thinking about buying some Orange-Black-Grey. What do you think? Any suggestions for color patterns would be appreciated! I've also been thinking about changing my CPU cooler for the Noctua NH-U12A chromax.black with LTT orange anti-vibration pads, and the chromax.black heatsink cover. I like the look of the NH-D15S, but feel it's too large for this smaller case. I purchased many ltt fans from their first run of Noctua NF-F12s from 2016 I believe it was. So I transferred some LTT round plates and orange anti-vibration pads and placed them on the chromax line of fans.

    Awesome. I will go with that. I will have two power bars coming down from my desk. One for PC, monitor, and router into surge + battery backup. The rest of my equipment into the surge protector like you said. Thanks!

    No, I'm in Canada. During the summer, we have some "brown outs" and full power outages due to the maintenance work I do on the underground hydro power plant. (from April - November) I just want something that can handle my PC and monitor to be able to shut down properly during a sudden power outage.

    So I'd probably want 2 power bars - 1 monitor and the PC --- plugged into the battery backup part of the UPS. Another bar for the other 2 monitors, desk motors, speaker, and phone charger --- plugged into the surge protection section of the UPS. That way only 2 items are actually taking advantage of the UPS? Think that would be ok?

    Hi, not sure if this is the correct place to ask. I am looking to buy a UPS for my system. If I can get anywhere from 5-15 minutes, that's good for me. Just enough time to save what I am doing and shut down. Or in case of a power outage, it can keep my fibre internet router up and running for a while. Here is what I will have plugged into to it: (3 monitors, computer, phone charger, sit stand desk, & speaker - power bar into the UPS) + a internet router and a printer. Thanks!

    yes!!

    Finally bought one! Love it!

    Hey all, I am wondering if there is any large mouse pad (around 30 - 35" x 12-16") that has a fast wireless charging built in so I can charge my phone? Thanks

    Hi there, so I use Chrome as my main browser to handle my main email and other things. I use edge to control my old email account. One day while I had two of my browsers open, the tab where I had my email open on Microsoft Edge randomly got redirected to some "you just won this!" type of pages. This happened 4 times in 1 week. Here's what I've done so far to try and fix the problem: I done full scan with Windows Defender and Malwarebytes and nothing is showing up. I went into control panel to see if there were any "random" apps installed but nothing. I also checked the Apps and features and nothing out of the ordinary was there. I reset Edge and removed all cookies and browsing data. I don't know how to fix this. The ONLY website I went on my Edge browser is Hotmail.com. If anyone knows something else I can try, let me know. Thanks

    Hi there, I am looking at getting two UPS battery backups for my two setups that I have in different rooms: One for my gaming PC (9900k + 1080) and three 24" monitors. My other setup is an iMac 27", 6 drive thunderbolt raid storage, and my router+modem combo. Both setups are currently on height adjustable desks so right now everything is powered by a 15' 6 plug surge protecter power bar. This way I only have 1 cable that is coming down from the desk as everything else is cable managed under the desk. Thanks in advance

    My room temp is currently 18C ( 64F )

    I'm wondering now, if Intel will be releasing a "X399" (new gen X299) In the spring / summer? If so, I think I can just wait until then..
  14. TrinityHigh
    Nice! I'm currently watching the newest video on TechLinked and just heard about it! lol
  15. TrinityHigh
    When is AMD releasing next gen Ryzen?
  16. TrinityHigh
    Thanks! I was thinking about going back to NZXT but I couldn't leave my Define S. I personally do not like PSU shrouds lol. Temps below! CPU idle - 35 C CPU under load - 87 C GPU idle - 52 C GPU under load - 76 C I thought the CPU and GPU temps would be higher but the temperature in my basement is pretty cold lol!
  17. TrinityHigh
    Hey all! I am looking into building another computer but this time on the X299 platform. I will be using this as a gaming rig but also as an editing rig. I am not set on a budget but I want to find a good balance between the two. Any build suggestions? Thanks!

    I currently having my 3 intake running at 700rpm, cpu fan running at 750rpm, and exhaust at 900rpm. I have a CPU idle temp of 35 and a 50C GPU temp at idle (fans not spinning).
  19. TrinityHigh
    800rpm for all intake and exhaust?
  20. TrinityHigh
    Hey all, so I'm trying to get a good airflow through my case. I have 3x 120mm NF-F12s as intake and 1 120mm NF-F12 as exhaust. What RPM should I run the fans (not during gaming) to have great air flow? I use the be quite! Dark Rock 4 for my CPU cooler. Picture attached of my build. Also, I have the Gigabyte Z390 Ultra board and I am not a fan of their software for fan control? Would another 3rd party fan controlling software work? Thanks

    Looks like I will be going with MX-4 Thermal Paste! Thanks all who gave their input! Cheers and a happy new year!
  22. TrinityHigh
    What thermal compound would you guys and gals recommend? I've been using Arctic Silver 5 for years but I'm wondering if there is a better option to go for? Thanks
  23. TrinityHigh
    Thanks for the info. Do you think it would make sense for me to actually downgrade my CPU to the 8700K while saving money seeing you say I won't be able to get all the performance from the 9900k because of the 1080?
  24. TrinityHigh
    Just OC'd to 5 and temps only went up 2C

    My Z390 Build is complete! Well, almost... I'm just waiting on the CableMod PSU cables and CableMod 2x 30cm RGB Strips to be delivered but I couldn't wait! I am quite happy with this build! I am thinking about painting the PCI slots black rather than the stock white color. Looking forward for my light strips so I can have a warm white tone to show off the build as I am not a fan of crazy colors all over the place. Looking for positive or negative feedback to see if I can improve this build, other than the cables and case lighting! Cheers all and a happy new year! *EDIT 01/03/19* CPU @ 5GHz OC - 35 degrees C - idle *EDIT 01/03/19* GPU @ 1,897 MHz - 52 degrees C - idle Going to run a stress test shortly to see what my temps are for the CPU. I am sort of worried about temps under load for the 9900K but I prefer air cooling vs water cooling.
