You need to turn the latch on the screw hole like shown in the pictures. Point it away from the drive, then, after you push the drive down, turn it back. It will hold the drive in place.

Not really. You can't just extend a boot drive like this in windows, and raid typically doesn't like mixed drive sizes.
You can keep your curreng t 250GB as the boot drive, and store games and other files on the 2TB drive.
Or you can clone/reinstall the os on the 2TB and I'd probably just remove the 256GB drive as its pretty small in comparison.

StoryVFX reacted to Poinkachu in Icue software
No problem.
CPU_FAN & CPU_OPT is marked as shared, meaning the two headers will work as one.
If you change the curve for CPU_FAN header, the same curve will be automatically applied to CPU_OPT.
And as you can see, AIO_PUMP header is marked as Full-Speed.
This usually the case for all AIO_PUMP header on other motherboard as well.

StoryVFX reacted to NavyCobra1417 in Icue software
It looks like the default configuration is to use motherboard software. Corsair website seems to indicate that you'd need to add an icue controller, such as commander core xt, to get icue control of the device.

StoryVFX reacted to Poinkachu in Icue software
You can, through Armoury Crate (If I remember right you have an ASUS motherboard), or through BIOS.
If you followed my guide in your other post for help, your Pump currently should be in PUMP header, which runs static speed (max all the time).
Pump header usually uncontrollable, meaning it will just make run 100% all the time. As stated in the motherboard manual.
IIRC it's better for pump to not ramp up and down.

if its boosting to 5ghz then you are getting the max out of your CPU 🙂 You don't need 5ghz when watching Youtube or browsing LTT Forum, this will just increase power draw and unnecessary heat. CPU's will meassure its own clockspeeds hundreds of times a second.
Just leave it alone, its doing exactly what its supposed to do 🙂
You can set your power plan to High Performance in the power plan settings within windows.

StoryVFX reacted to GuiltySpark_ in Ryzen 7 7800x3d OC
This is how we overclocked a decade ago, or if you're running the system in a testbench for benchmarking. For a PC you'll use, modern systems will ramp up and down the clockspeed as necessary.
You specifically do *not* want this.
Focus on load temperatures. If you want to ensure the chip is doing what its supposed to be doing, run a single Cinebench R23 run and ensure you're in the 18k-19k range for the score.
As for "overclocking" on modern Ryzen, you'll want to look into how to enable PBO (Precision Boost Overdrive), the Boost Override setting (up to +200Mhz) as well as Curve Optimizer undervolting for lower temps and higher boost clocks. Ultimately there is only so much you can do with an X3D chip, realistically you're not going to get much if any real world improvement in games from any of this but its fun to tinker.
(All of this should be done in the BIOS, btw, not in Ryzen Master)

This is normal behaviour, just let the CPU do its thing. Overclocking AM5 / Ryzen 7000 is not worth it, you can enable PBO though.
There is no point for a CPU to sit at 5ghz if all you do is watch Youtube.
As long as its not dropping to 1ghz during gaming, leave it alone.

StoryVFX reacted to KaitouX in What is this
When I had the same error it kept failing until I used diskpart to manually do it, so it might not have fixed it.

Try opening the Command Prompt (Shift+F10) and convert to a GPT partition using the CLI.

StoryVFX got a reaction from MiszS in New platform
Much appreciated bro! I hope it will fit, i have all the parts that came with it il check if that bracket for amd mobo came with it or not, maybe it comes with the new asus mobo i bought?
-
StoryVFX reacted to Guille.R in Choosing new parts
With AM5 it's better to have low latency ram. You can perfectly go with 32Gb at 6000Mhz, but for obtaining all the performance i'd recomend u going with CL30 or, 5600Mhz at CL28. Either of it will be perfectly good althought 6000Mhz probably a little expensier. About the CPU I absolutly think 7800X3d is the best "reasonable" cpu of the market. The 7900X3d is pretty overkill. About the mobo it's important that it matches your I/O needs, the overclocking capabilities u want and I would surely recomend u reading (or watching) a review about the mobo... Just in case

StoryVFX reacted to Fasauceome in 144 hz problem... Rtx cards...
Good point, although I noticed it's DVI-I so it might refer to the analog signal. Also, DVI-I might not work in OP's port so scratch that.
