I was trying many Linux over the years but gave up due to finding it confusing as hell, last attempt was arch. so I'm running a heavily cut down server 2016 os on my main rig. ill give Ubuntu a go as I did try it man times over the years back in 09 to 2013 but stopped after the amazon additions and all that. will post back.

its not updating I just checked. I also set it to high performance mode but its still capping max cpu. although slightly less delayed

was a 4gb system when she got it but we put in 8gb corsair value ddr3 ram, 1tb 5400rpm drive

i got given my fiancés old student laptop from 1 year or more ago and decided id try to use it to be a dedicated uploading system for when I finish editing content. but I noticed something shitty about it. currently I'm always peaking 100% cpu usage, ive included a screen shot. so I'm wondering do you think this Celeron 1.6ghz system can be saved using Linux so that I can continue to make some form of use of it?

It's a big Case rather big honestly eatx

Yea i was looking at the Snow 650W tbh thank you, u have been super informative.

even overclocked? my pump and hdd and fans? if so sweet

Ok so i have a 1050W gold psu from cougar [ left over from a workstation that pulled that much ] and its started to be a problem. ive had to unplug it from the wall and unplug all the connectors to the pc and replug them a few times. i have it set for returning to manufacturer under warranty. ive done a calculator and my own from the wall meter check and im sitting at about 650 to 750W max. i run a gtx 1080 ti [ single card ] and a intel 6700k overclocked. 32gb of ram etc. i have a water loop and ive found the cougar at night is the loudest thing in the room even when i have a render que in action. can you suggest a decent psu ? ive check the tiers and know what "Brands and Model" but not really sure what my best idea on wattage is. i want to stay as close to my max usage as possible

id say the corsair maglev fans if you use bios or a fan hub to get them to the speed to sound ratio you enjoy

It's evolving now a full inch has gone funky

Cougar Panzer Max is a hood case supports 360 front and top. Cones with psu cover and a domed back to support 2x3.5 drives and like 6 ssd. Really good Case TBH before I started to water cool I used it on my fiances PC and she won't give it back haha.

yea

yea i havent put the coil in the loop after i found out my block is coated

its like a powder that when shaken returns to the coolant. but the color is not lost if it sits for days

im ordering one next week. thanks for the help

thanks for explaining concerns with the case ill look into phanteks

Not being a ass but id rather be as close to room temp as possible considering i don't have AC. and what do you define as Quality? as long as it does not collapse apon itself i don't really have a issue with it. average temps for summer in my town is around 36c

cause if you read the post at the start it said case labs are almost 2x the price, and i got the 480 super cheap the other day so yea. i only had a 360 and 120 at the time. ill rent the basement out to you

scorptec tried to cheap me on a RMA for corsair fans, long story short i won and im not very happy with them. i wish other specialty cases were available locally in aus

Spoke to thermal take the day i originally posted this thread, and was told they are contacting taiwan and i have not heard back from them. the bottle now is about 1/2" of gunk at the bottom of the bottle

yea ive noticed pccg has cut down their case line up and are going for alot of glass cases that tbh will just hotbox your gear.

Im not a big fan of thermal take and their coping of cases but i cant really afford to be picky https://www.pccasegear.com/products/37792/thermaltake-core-x71-tempered-glass-riing-edition seems to have the space for all my rads
