  1. I have a i9 7900x that i really wanna delid but no one sells the ddm-x tool amywhere in the usa, correct me if im wrong. Im trying to see if anyone in the states has one that i could buy or even just rent for a week to delid my chip. Even if i bought from over seas, no one has any instock
  2. msi gs70.... or gs60 if you want the 15" i have the gs70, thin light, quiet https://www.amazon.com/MSI-GS63VR-Stealth-Pro-068-i7-6700HQ/dp/B01IS33OLC/ref=sr_1_5?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1482005464&sr=1-5&keywords=msi+laptop+1060
  3. about 700-900 for all 15 and i never change it, gaming or idle is always the same speed, whisper quite
  4. dont do it!!!!! first do you even know if the cpu can be taken out??? 2nd laptops are built to handle what they have inside, putting a higher power cpu in a laptop can cause lots of heat or power issues if the laptop isnt built to specifically handle that cpu...
  5. that last one, perfect, ill design and 3d print my own headphone hook.... thx you!!!!!
  6. oh god... lol, sadly too long to fit in the space i will have, otherwise i would just for shits and giggles
  7. ok so i bought a caselabs sm8 with a 360 (3x120mm) rad drop in for the front panel, and a 480 drop in to the top, this gives me a little room of the 480 ran to place shallow mounting 5.25" bay shit, i have 2 bays to fill and i want any ideas or pictures, or items that i can buy or make or anything to fill those 2 5.25" slot... any ideas welcome, nothing is too crazy, if anything crazier the better.
  8. you wanted to sit an AMG $200,000 car on top of your pc? odd choice..... but i like it
  9. with the 400 id sell the 970s and get a single 1080 and then you can sli later on down the road
  10. nzxt hue+ is a must, unless you already have your set up in a specific color. what gpus do you have?
  11. i started a seperate topic about this stuff, few people are posting already, cpuwaiy, please go read it, not trying to be mean or anything of that nature i simply want the right info to be given out to the right people. i would like if you commenting in the thread i made, i want you to defend your side so we can have an adult, in depth talk about it. even if i turn out wrong then atleast we both know. for OP, if you dont plan to OC, having a K rated cpu is unneeded, return and get a regular 6700 if possible. use the money for something else, but yes, windows 10 upgrade and redo all your drivers and stuff
  12. ok so in a different thread a fellow LLT member is stating that a Z rated MB are not meant for OC but rather to enable Xfire. while i claim that a Z rated MB is built and designed for OC in mind and that you can run sli/Xfire on any chipset as long as the MB is designed by the Manufacturer to use more then 1 video card. i simply want someone, especially staff to clear up the matter so that wrong info isnt being told to other members, and this way if it turns out im the one in the wrong, then i know better and i learn something
  13. ive informed a moderator of this topic, sorry OP for the mess but i dont want you getting wrong information.
  14. can we please get a moderator in here to clear this up... this guy is spreading wrong info... for Xfire and SLI it depends on your MB specs and your availible pci lanes on your cpu and your plx chip... a Z rated MB is built and designed for OC K series CPUs you can sli and xfire on even a B rated MB if you wanted, just has to be supported by the MB. please for gods sake just leave this thread
  15. https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Z170-H170-H110-B170-Q150-Q170---What-is-the-Difference-635/ you look like an idiot
  16. raid 0 isnt BAD, just not recommended for storage drives.
  17. this is a joke right? Z is meant for Xfire? no just no, stop spreading wrong info... and yes H seires will OC but i never said they wouldnt, i said they arent MEANT for OC...
  18. 850 evo... dont go get cheap brands, save a up an extra few bucks and spend it on something worth it. a 500gb 850 evo is only 165usd on amazon.com
  19. the K on your cpu means it unlocked for overclocking, the H on the motherboard means your MB isnt meant for OC... only Z rated boards are meant for overclocking
  20. to me there is a list, you bought a K series chip but only an H rated MB, why not a Z rated or why not stick with the 6700 non-K? ram speed is very low for ddr4 the hybrid drive is honestly a waste of money. especially that you have a 120gb boot, though i would have gone with a better brand like samsung 850 evo ssd.
  21. so i need a quick answer, 275 for a used 980 (in new condition) or 269.99 for a new 1060 6gb? simply which is more powerful
  22. just make a battery pack out of 18650s, thats what i have my jeep running on, and i have a 1500w system with a bunch of led bars and shit. 4 18650s in series is 14.8v, perfect for your alt to keep topped of and then you simply run 4 packs in parallel to get the desired AH. im running a 4s20p pack of 3000mah inr cells, gives me about 400amps of max draw if i need it and a good 60ah capacity.
  23. selling my titan x pascal :( sad to see it go but need it for emergency vet bills. if interested look in the classifieds 

  24. just keep in mind for an APU your graphics depend on your ram speed alot so get some really fast like 2400mhz dd3 ram and yea youll be perfect for an htpc build that can even do light gaming.
