  1. Sell them on LTT store! Logistically I'm sure would be nightmare, just for the manufacturing alone. But I need this in my home!
  2. Already tested from the WD Black, seems I may have to set up some sort of test bench
  3. CPU is less than a year old, bent 4 pins on the old one when installing a new cooler.
  4. So it all started when I switched my new build over to my new case. After switching over all my components the PC wouldn't post, assuming this was a Mobo issue I replaced it witch a new Gigabyte 970A-UD3P Having replaced the Mobo I chose to reinstall windows completely. this is were things started getting complicated. . .After starting the install I would often reach disk partitioning but the the install would freeze(sometimes it would make it to Extracting Files) After I tried a few time I made a new install disc but had the same problem for a couple more tried but then it worked.Celebrating the fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate I started my updates. The updates went fine and didn't appear to have any issues. But after installing my updates my PC would start to freeze completely at random timings, only way to recover from the freeze was a hard shutdown. I assume I didn't see this problem during updates since the PC was usually only on for about 5-10 minutes.So, with this new problem ahead I started checking components, first I checked my voltages. Everything seemed to be functioning fine. I double checked CPU and GPU temps, my CPU was running an average of 32c and GPU 55c. So I went down to one stick of RAM and tested each one individually. I also tested the PSU separately and all voltages were normal. I also checked for bent CPU pins. Now knowing I had some really old RAM I figured it was a compatibility issue even tho the Mobo claimed it was compatible so I ordered some brand new Corsair Vengeance Pro (2x8GB) DDR3 1866MHz.After installing my brand new RAM I was prepared to downloading and playing games. but of course that wasn't the case. Now knowing that the only possible issue I could have left was maybe a dying PSU in its early stages. So I also bought a EVGA 110-B2-0850-V1 80 PLUS Bronze 850 W .If you read this far I'm sure you can guess that my PC still doesn't work. . .After installing the new PSU I powered on the PC and to my satisfaction the PC did not freeze, but instead is now randomly shutting off or restarting. Don;t know what else to do, please helpOther things I've tried: Clearing CMOS after every new install Wiping SSD and fresh Windows install Using a different HD for OS Updating Bios Rolling back Bios Disconnecting all other HDD's and USB headers Disconnecting Power and Reset Buttons Disconnecting GPU and see if the PC will stay on(it doesn't) Staying in Bios Another GPU Updated all device drivers Malware and Virus checks Removing all Dust Made sure no wires are shorting the Mobo Computer Specs Mobo: GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3P (rev. 2.0)CPU: AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8-Core 4.0 GHz PSU: EVGA 110-B2-0850-V1 80 PLUS Bronze 850 W GPU: SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 7850RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro (2x8GB) DDR3 1866MHz CL9 DIMMs (CMY16GX3M2A1866C9B)Main Drive: SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 250GB SATA III 3-D (SSD) MZ-75E250B/AMSecondary Drive: WD Black 2TB - 7200 RPM SATA 6 Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD2003FZEXPlease help, I'm out of patience and money.

    Help! got a new chassis today and moved my build over. My computer was functioning completely normally but now every time I turn it on it shuts off after a few seconds, sometimes a little longer. I'm using all the same gear I was using before just in the new chassis, I reset CMOS no change. and yes I double checked the power and reset buttons are working fine. edit: I checked each stick of RAM seperatly aswell second edit: was able to make it to BIOS before it turned off, my voltages are fine too
  10. Really interested in seeing a review on the NZXT Grid+ V2
  11. Totally fine with removing them, just don't want to hacksaw pieces off fans or the case
  12. I'm interested in buying the NZXT H630 case but was wondering if any other 200mm fans were compatible with the 200mm mounting points on the case (specifically the Bitfenix Spectre Pro or the Cooler Master MegaFlow) PS. The H630 not the H630 Phantom, picture below to clarify
