    I know it's a long shot but have you got a spare CPU that fits z370 to test with? You could of possibly over tightened the cooler which could of caused a crack or something. Also looking the manual how can you tell it's a CPU error? As the led in the top corner is boot device, VGA, dram and CPU led. Have you tried one stick of ram?
  2. Pudsey The Bear
    Sounds like it's looping. Have you checked the ram is seated properly and all power connectors are properly connected? It could also be bricked by the bios flash which to be honest isn't good news

    There was a problem a couple years ago that sounded similar but with @. Have you tried changing the language from English US to English UK?

    I'm going to spend some time overclocking it after my exams are finished so I'll let you know what I can push it to! I did see your hack for the pump so thanks for doing it, I'll be definitely doing it as soon as I have time as I want to make sure I don't F*ck it up!
  5. Pudsey The Bear
    You would be pushing it with a 350w but it is doable (like Dedayog said) but if you want a new PSU, LTT forums have a PSU tier list

    Looks sick, congrats! How's the cryo?
  8. Pudsey The Bear
    Anyone used the cryo yet? How is it? Is it too loud or should I scrap buying a different cooler? Mine comes march 9th :D
  9. Pudsey The Bear
    So by that, it'll be August next year then?
  10. Pudsey The Bear
    Now that everyone been approved how long do you guys reckon till we get our CPUs?

    I actually bought a dehumidifier recently that's 35db (the same as the pump) and to be honest it's loud AF. I've already accepted the fact that i'm going to sell the pump and buy a decent air cooler or AIO for the price I sell the pump for.
  12. Pudsey The Bear
    At least boards will be cheaper I guess
  13. Pudsey The Bear
    Let me know how it all goes (because I'm guessing with me being English I'll be one of the last to get the prize) and if the pump stays unnecessarily loud I might just buy an nh-u12s and be done with it

    He said negative things about the thermals under load! I can't see Linus as the type of guy to withhold information like the pump being noisy, he has been notorious for accepting no bullshit from manufacturers in terms of excluding information for money.
  15. Pudsey The Bear
    What I don't get about the reviews saying about noise is that the spec sheet says it's under 35 DBA for the pump (which is quiet) and Linus didn't mention the noise at all. Do you think maybe there is just a bad batch of units making a louder noise, which unluckily got sent to reviewers? (By the way I'm not saying you're wrong about the noise, I've also seen all the reviews saying it's quite loud!)

    Luke lafr's mineral oil pc is part of LTT history!

    The ones from different brands can have different cooling/clock speeds and looks while the Nvidia one is like the "vanilla" standard card. (Oh and don't forget RGB!)

    How much is the b450 tomahawk max in your country? (That's a go to board by many ryzen users!). I've had great experiences with Asrock in the past (had an extreme 4+ on my old athlon) so as long as it's got the feature set you want I would say it's a fine choice!
  19. Pudsey The Bear
    I just wouldn't go near any brands like kolink/gamemax/CiT. I've had too many bad experiences from brands like them no matter the tier of PSU they are! Would just be a shame if you spent all that money for the PSU to kill your system!
  20. Pudsey The Bear
    Quite a good build, but I would recommend trying to get a proper brand PSU. One from Corsair/Evga/seasonic etc and not from brands like kolink or gamemax. You don't want a dodgy power supply to kill your system!

    Drop the 0 at the start! They know you're from the UK so they'll put the area code in themselves instead of us normally putting 0
  22. Pudsey The Bear
    I honestly have no idea to be honest with you!
  23. Pudsey The Bear
    Don't take my word for it because I've only ever filled in a W8BEN once (for app store) but for this prize the answer to all 4 is no I believe, if you're from the UK that is. Also for country make sure you put "United Kingdom" no matter where you're from within the UK instead of putting "England" for example

    Hasn't asked for any attachment, just asked me to fill out some form (because I'm from the UK) and upload it to the docusign.
  25. Pudsey The Bear
    I have my email!! Finally helloworld has sent me the email with documents to fill out, they're giving us 2 calendar days to fill out the form so everyone keep an eye on emails
