wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from andrewmp6 in Is that normal?
It's just a bit of oxidation formed from water droplets left in the radiator after leak testing in the factory. Should cause no problems after a flush and is just cosmetic. If it bothers you then the mayhems blitz cleaning kit would more than likely clean it up.

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from nzxtlover123 in Which thermal paste should i choose
Highly recommend SYY-157, only stuff so far that's managed to tame my 3090 long term. MX-2/4 both ended up getting pumped out over a couple of weeks.

Got mine for MSRP a month after launch.

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from Mark Kaine in will better faster and lower CL ram give me any better performance?
I have a 32G kit with my 5950x that runs at 3600Mhz with 18-19-19-19-39 XMP timings, manually tweaking the timings gets me 16-19-13-12-30 stable. I reverted back to XMP because I couldn't be arsed re-doing the timings after endless bios updates on my board. The faster timings made absolutely no discernible different in day-day use. Some benchmarks were a few percent lower but you don't play benchmarks 🙂

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from sub68 in Show off your old and retro computer parts
Hehe don't worry about the hardware, the case is full open and doesn't even have any fans in atm. Purely just testing it/getting everything set up.
Have a cheapo 4u rackmount case, some 60mm chipset fans and other bits and bobs coming to turn it into a poor mans 8 bay NAS machine.
The chipset cooler on this board is honking huge too this board was nuts back in the day.

Found this old beast in storage:
Q6600 @ 3.6Ghz
8GB DDR2 800
Zotac 9800 GT (Used to be SLI but the fan on the second card died)
Dusting it off and I'm going to put it in a rackmount case as a NAS for a few 8TB Seagate drives I snagged off Amazon for £117 each 😄

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from Master Disaster in 1.475V for Ryzen 5 3600?
Good news! Your voltages are perfectly fine, this is how XFR works on Zen 2. High voltages and clocks during quick/light tasks and lower voltages and clocks during extended/heavy tasks. As long as your per core voltages drop below 1.325v under a sustained heavy load like cinebenche your're golden.

Probably just some left over solder flux from manufacturing.

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from nO_d3N1AL in Zen2 Voltages aren't exaggerated, Zen2 is a MESS
The only thing I've found for me that works is switching to the Windows High Performance Power plan and changing the mim/max states to 1%/100%. This lowers my idle and game temps/voltages quite significantly

If you like V-sync, cap to 58 fps and it pretty much eliminates the input lag.

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from hmza in wd blue ssd 500gb or kingston uv480
Go for the WD Blue. Kingston budget SSDs are well known for having sub-par performance, this one is no exception. Reviews for both below.

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from JohnDongus in Get a kit?
I recently upgraded to a custom loop and went full EK with 360/280 rad. It ended up being cheaper going for the P360 kit and adding GPU block an extra rad and fittings on afterwards. The parts EK use in their kits are identical to their individual components and in fact the CPU block has better universal support as it has mounting hardware for Intel and AMD included which their individual blocks don't by default.

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from FrostBittn in Asus Z97-C nvme boot support
Sorry for the delay, on Z97 the PCI-E slots used by the M.2 controller only supports PCI-E 2.0 X2 and is therefor limited to 1GB/s which is why NVME is only supported by the PCI-E adapters on Z97

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from dalekphalm in life.... I'm ****ed
It's not a pretty job but have a look around parcel companies, UPS, DPD, TNT etc... They're usually always looking for more help on the lead up to christmas and if you're good they'll keep you on afterwards. Pay isn't too shabby either. I'm on just over £12 p/h just to move boxes.

wolfsbane3083 got a reaction from DICKHILL in Multiple monitors on a single GTX (1070 Ti)
I run 4 monitor on m 1080Ti, 1 DP. 2 DP to DVI and 1 HDMI. The two via DVI are using passive adaptors and I've never had an issue. Beware of cheap conversion cables though, I've had 2 DP to HDMI cables that where crap quality and would lose signal.
