  1. How could that have gotten in there though, I haven't taken this computer apart in a few years at least. If that started the problems, why would it just show its face now and not before?
  2. Hi all, I've been having some issues with I'm assuming to be my RAM. This morning I ran MemTest86 for about 20 minutes on all 4 sticks with about 1500 errors. I then started to take them out one by one and after the first error I would cancel the test. All 4 sticks failed. Then I threw in some old Hyper X RAM that I had taken out a few months ago for my current fancy RGB sticks. It didn't even launch to the test. I again took them out one by one with the same result of not making it to the test. So I thought why not, put in my spare motherboard and it wouldn't even make it to the BIOS screen. So I put everything back together the way it was this morning, and now I've got no errors and its been running for about 50 minutes now. While I was in the process of switching boards I did notice that on contacts for the CPU there was a little black patch of some foreign material, so I took a Q-Tip and cleaned that off. Could that be what was causing my issues? Other than that I don't have any ideas of what changed to cause all my errors to go away. Give me your thoughts on what the issue might have been. Thanks.
  3. Hard Tubing baby . But I could give that a shot
  4. If it wasn't liquid cooled I would but because it is its a huge PITA.
  5. I tried DDU yesterday afternoon, and my PC hasn't moved for like a year and a half, is it possible for the GPU to unseat itself?
  6. Hi, I have what I think to be a failing GPU. I'll be working on something or playing a game when I hear the Windows Disconnect Noise, then my screen says No Signal and I have to restart my computer to get it to come back. This morning when I started my PC the screen was at 640x480 resolution and the picture was black and white. These problems started 2 days ago. I also have the most recent nvidia drivers. Let me know what you think might be going on. Thanks
  7. Are to talking about the Coaxial cable that goes to the rear of the modem?
  8. Got my first nice car back in March, 2014 Camaro 2SS 1LE. Current plans for the spring are; Cam, Headers, Cold Air Intake, and if my budget allows some 260cc heads.
  9. Hi all, my apartment complex sent me a letter saying that my internet speeds have been increased at no charge to me. It went from 25 mb/s to 50 mb/s, and that got me interested. I ran some speed tests using wifi and I would get the 50 mb/s as advertised and then I would run those same speed tests using a 100 ft Ethernet cable. My router and all that is in my living room and it is the only spot that it can go. So using the 100 ft Ethernet cable my download speeds went down to on average 2 - 3 mb/s. The upload would be about the same on both tests and the ping was higher using the Ethernet cable. Now my question is, Is the Ethernet cable too long? I've read that if a cable is over 150 meters it can reduce speeds. I'm fine with running the wifi as I don't like seeing the cable run through my apartment, but I feel like the Ethernet cable should be just as fast. If it matters my modem is the Netgear CM700 and my router is the Netgear Nighthawk X6
  10. I've ran Windows 10 Unlicensed practically since it came out, when I built my Skylake system back in 2015 I ran Windows unlicensed no problem, and now 3 years later and a bunch of upgrades I'm still running it unlicensed.
  11. Ahh, I see what you meant. I don't think a bottom mounted radiator like that is a very good thing, I agree with you that it would might be starved for air. But anyways, thank you and I thought having a PC in the living room would be good for when I have family and friends over, we can play with VR and do some multiplayer stuff.
  12. And here is a picture of where its home now is
  13. Well guys, it's done and I must say it looks real nice. I wish I would have implemented more orange, but it looks good either way.
  14. No it is actually a top mounted radiator
  15. Alright guys, I've gotten the case back and I have also gotten the cables from CableMod. I've also started putting it together and it is a VERY tight fit in some spots haha.
