It isnt about if you make mistakes... its about what you do WHEN you make mistakes. The important thing now is to be honest and transparent in your efforts to make it right.

Sounds like you have looked at the first usual suspects, Make sure your mounting on the cooler is secure and you are getting full contact. Id say check you loop for air bubbles and check your fluid temperature but that's no usually something you can do with an AIO. Check your airflow through your rad. If you are attempting any overclocking make sure you are running the CPU at stock settings until you can sort out the problem as higher voltages will increase your thermals. Have a look at the performance tab in task manager and see if this is load related on those cores.

Im having the same problem with my card and it started after about 3 days out of the box, This isn't the typical fans running hard noise its more like a buzz or rattle. It sounds as if the fan blade is making slight contact with the shroud. I have done some searching online and this a widely reported issue with this card and several others of similar design from Gigabyte. I reached out to their support team for assistance and they give the typical install our software update drivers make sure nothing is messing with the fan curve bla bla bla. I have advised this does nothing to resolve the issue and my questions go unanswered. Not once have they offered to RMA the card or any other solution for that matter and frankly given what I've seen others who have gotten their cards replaced had the same issue and Gigabyte sent them a refurbished card rather than a new unit. Im not keen to send my 1 month old card that I spent nearly $600 CAD on back to Gigabyte to have it gone for a month and then replaced with a used card just to get the same issue all over again once it comes back... I really hope someone here might have an alternative solution to the problem.

Thanks, Ill keep digging and if I find a solution ill update here.

If I could get my hands on a driver I could load it into a new install media but I have been unable to locate one, If this is indeed my problem then im SOL unless there is a place I can get the correct driver from. I was really hoping the answer was something other than that and I'm just missing some crucial detail.

Ive looked into that but cant seem to find a driver for it, Neither Asrock or WD have one that I can find on their website.... It is currently my working theory though...

Hello Guys, As the topic says I'm running into an issue installing Windows 7 on an M.2 SSD. I was able to run the installer just fine and when it did its reboot the system attempts to load into windows and then I get a quick flash of a BSOD and then it reboots and goes into the options for booting into safe mode and such. An attempt to load into safe mode loads the core drivers but hangs at loading disks.sys and then the same flash BSOD and reboot. I have attempted 3 separate installs with 2 different install media one on a disc and the other downloaded from MS and loaded onto a USB both with the same result. I'm at the end of my rope and really hope anyone on here might have some insight. SPECS: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 16GB RAM Asrock B550m PRO4 RTX 2070 WD Greed M.2 2280 SSD 240GB EVGA 500W 80+ Bronze PSU I don't have a log file for the BSOD error and would happily provide it if I knew a way to access those logs without booting into Windows. Thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide. Regards, Ian Mastin

One would think if it were a real product you would see it in use for modern electronics or at least advertised as a service that a retailer or manufacturer would offer. For people in the business of making money off other peoples accidents or fear of accidents this would be a brilliant opportunity.

It would definitely be a bit of work but it could be worth it. If for example I were to build a phase change cooled desktop I would undoubtedly use this product as well as several other precautions to protect my valuable components.

I realize mechanical components like optical drives or traditional HDD's couldn't be protected with this product as it would effectively make them useless however all non mechanical components like the motherboard, CPU, GPU, power supply, RAM, and SSD could all potentially be protected.

I work in a retail environment, We repair literally hundreds of computers every month and I see a lot of units with water or liquid damage. The point of the post isn't to debate weather or not the idea is practical or even cost effective. I simply wanted to know is this a real product and if so would it be possible to use it to make any computer impervious to the potential threat of water damage.

Clearly you have never worked in technology or you have never seen a situation where a person spilled liquid on a laptop...

Think about laptops where accidents can happen or desktops using extreme cooling systems where leaks or condensation can cause damage.

Case in point

Nanoprotech is it real and more importantly could one use it to build a waterproof pc (minus mechanical components). http://www.nanoprotech.org
