I had 2x ST3000 die while in warranty , they suddenly stopped working and I could kiss my data goodbye , and it was a sudden death. I will never buy Seagate again.

Well, small update with video. replaced 1x WD green 2Tb and an 3Tb SEAGATE ST3000 piece of shit. with 2 4Tb Red´s. You know you are blocking those vents with those labels right? sorry if this has been answered before

Is this the most beastly looking GPU you have EVER seen?
Alexdaman replied to Jamdog's topic in Graphics Cards
Mars III for me -

1. standard 650D layout 2 .im guessing bad luck or that screw 3. I did 4. it does heat up , depends if your radiators can benefit from convection Update : So I got my 980Ti yesterday , its indeed WAAAY faster than my 980. I chose the MSI 980 Reference and I am planning to watercool this biatch again . I will run it 2-3 weeks on air to mage sure its fine . I already voided my warranty on day 1 I managed to remove the warranty sticker on the screws so if I get a non watercooling related issue with the GPU again , I will try to get my warranty. So I now need to order : 900D 1x480 rad 1x380 rad Tubing TITAN X block and backplate Bitspower fittings

Good news! I got a replacement ! its an ASUS 980GTX Strix This cooler is much better than reference. but now my waterblock is incompatible...

yes , but its a ground plane on that side .

pump was connected to 4 Pin Molex , so the pc should be off then. also I always have coretemp running with an automated shut down when the CPU is arround 68c. Its in the same loop so it should heat up equally when pump fails , also GPU block has a lot more mass

the first hours of the build I Stressed the card with Folding @ home for 4 hours, also it isnt a diode wich needs to be covered by the stock or waterblock

UPDATE ! So I got a great start of my weekend! 5 Days ago I installed a custom water cooling loop with CPU and GPU, all parts are from EKWB, and worked beautifully all 5 days , Great Temps. Nothing was overclocked ! last night I left my PC on to do some steam downloads. When I woke up my PC was off . Started it and I got a big spark coming from the GPU. immediately pull out the power and start draining. And lo and behold , some diode was vaporized. So I am a bit scared... Did I do something wrong? or was it pure an unlucky GPU fault? Damn I hope they just give me a new one. and now I also need a new gpu block because they only got the STRIX cards now...

I did , I dont run raid on the onboard s-ata and only on my Adaptec 32105 (its old...) the raid gets anywhere from 400-520mb per second. from the Marvell controller to my raid or another JBOD drive i get arround 120mb/s in file copy´s. Its a great little board. Running 2 VM´s on it without anny problems and Plex media server.

I think and others (Ryan from PcPer) agree that 1440p and 1600p are the best desktop resolutions without the need for extreme graphic cards and scaling. I would take the ROG swift.

Just replaced my motherboard and CPU with this : Asrock Asrack Avoton C2750 8 Core @ 2.4ghz Atom - Avoton 12 SATA ports on board I kept my Adaptec 32105 with 12 Ports 2 Intel Gigabit NICs with teaming support or fail over 1 IPMI management port only 3 USB 2.0...... Passive cooled went from 210watts to 130watts so its a nice improvement. I guess the PERC 5i was consuming around 30 watts Dont feel the difference in speed so that's a good thing! Running on Windows Server 2012 for now. The onboard management is great! I now have a Total of 24 ports , which is a little low. im going to get an 20+ controller soon

I can also sadly confirm that those drives are crap... HGST or WD Red or dont bother!
-
I know I used to bench all the time for an undisclosed website

thanks I was thinking that.... still a dumb ass bug from MS again...

B c i ws tstn sht out

so I was doing some Folding for the team and noticed when I disabled 2 threads the CPU usage did not go down. but when I selected to show individual cores in the task manager they do appear to be idle. in Cinebench I do see a difference if I disable those 2 cores : goes from 9.5 to 10.93 so that's realistic So is this a bug in the windows task manager? Cant seem to find other people who have similar problems on the internet I am Curious

just had a ST3000 die on me... it died instantly . bought 2x 4TB RED as replacement. next month the other ST3000 will be replaced with a 4TB RED. so I am up to 69TB for now Also I am updating my config : Ri-vier 24bay 4U case. and a Intel Quad Port gigabit adapter.
-
for fun , I had the motherboard and a 64 euro cpu is cool. also overclocking is fun.
-
I run mine on 4,2ghz with 1,25v stays arround 68c with a stock cooler. cant get mine past 4,45ghz... great cpu and single threaded it beats my 5960X

Corsair RM850 PSU how to connect using corsair link
Alexdaman replied to Radsta's topic in Power Supplies
They do have Link , but its a more basic version of the i-series PSU´s you will need a cable to connect it , http://www.corsair.com/en-gb/corsair-link-analog-to-digital-bridge-cable-for-rm-series-psu
