  1. Hi everyone, I just received my brand new RX 580 armor a few weeks ago and yesterday I tried overclocking it for the first time. The weird thing is, as soon as I change either the Ramspeed or the Corespeed, doesn't matter in wich direction, the card stays in the Idle even while Benchmarking. After a restart all of the problems are gone, just like my Overclock. In MSI Afterburner I also can't activate the "Extend official overclocking limits" Box. As soon as I do that my PC wants to restart and the Box is empty once again. I have attached a Screenshot witch shows the settings available. It also doesn't boost to the advertised speed of 1366mhz either, I'm stuck with 1200mhz. Is there any setting I'm missing out or is my Card just broken? Thanks for any reply

  3. Have those CPUs any kind of heatsink? Looks as it is only the pure chip, i wonder how high the temps are
  4. Have you checked whether you have a) forgotten to take the protecting plastic foil of the cooler or b) there are capacitors on the board which interfere with the cooler Otherwise you will have to return it, mayby it is broken or has to less fluid in it
  5. When you're tubing is large enough, then you could possibly drill and glue some 3mm LEDs into them, which would decrese you're flow rate a bit, but would still work
  6. You could also take a look at the wires of the pump and connect the red wire to the yellow wire of an molex and the black wire to the black one. If you have an sleeved or black paintet cable, you need to look at the internet for the pinout of those connectors. To not have to cut the pump wires, go simply to your lokal hardware store and get some doorbell wire, it should have the dimensions to fit inside those sokets. All you need to do then, is to jumpstart the psu and it should work. So that's the DIY solution for this problem, it's basically the same as the adapter
