Saw this on the internet and just had to post it! I hope Linus sees it!

Ok- so now I switched them back and all seems to be ok,but there is no option in the BIOS to control Fan Speed, it's an older HP that I've had for a long time- It's running an I7 "Lynnfield" core processor.at,2.93Ghz. I mainly use it for editing audio files. It's running pretty quiet now.just have to keep an eye on the temps.

kelvinhall05, I did that, and got a warning that there was no CPU Fan connected. So I switched them. Now the motherboard thinks that the radiator fan is the CPU fan.

Hey everone! I have an older HP Motherboard that only has one CPU Fan Connector(4Pin) and a 3pin Chassis fan connector. It is an HP Compaq MS-7613 VER:1.1 Socket 1155 Motherboard 612500-001. I have a Corsair H55 AIO hooked up with the radiator fan connected to the CPU header and the pump connected to the SYS/Chassis connector. It's working, but the fan is running full speed all the time. Is there a way to control the fan. The H55 does not have the Corsair Link capability- any help would be appreciated!

When will this phone be available in the U.S.?

I'm trying to decide on whether to wait for the Ryzen 3000 series to come out before building my next gaming rig. SHould I wait, or go with a 2700X? Thoughts?

I've watched a few YouTube videos about remapping the keys,but it is my understanding that,that has to be done for each game,everytime you play it. I may just try a Game Controller as Spotty suggested. Being left- handed has it's advantages,but not in a 90% right-handed world-

Hey Guys, I am looking for an alternative to WASD for gaming. I just cannot use WASD unless I slide my keyboard all the way to the right. Doing this also prevents me from using other keyboard keys and shortcuts. I've watched a couple of YouTube videos about this,but none to my satisfaction. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. BTW, I use my left hand for the mouse even though it is a "right-handed" mouse. I need a solution for the keyboard! HELP!

what do you know about Open Media Vault for Linux- it is highly recommended on a lot of sites.?

Well Yes- I have absolutely no knowledge about servers- haven't really needed one before now,but looks like I will be learning!

I looked at Synology. Very good choice,but a little out of my budget right now- I saw one for 169.00 without disks. I haven't made a decision yet- may have to wait a month or two, don't want to buy something I can't scale up later- the better models are 4 to 500 bucks- can't afford right now-

Haha - well thanks for the compliment,but I am 62 years old. Anyway, after doing quite a bit of reading,and asking questions on some other tech forums,www.bleepingcomputer.com is my favorite, I've determined that what I am looking for is a NAS server,which as you said,can be purchased for relatively low cost at my local computer store. WD has one for 139.00 bucks that will suit my needs. I also run a dual boot Windows/Linux machine where I think Open Media Vault will work as well for the Linux end of it. Either option comes pre- configured mostly,so I don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure it out! Not looking to build a server room here- just something for HOME use!

Thanks for the link- thats a good start!

Well I've heard that server CPU'S are different,as in XEON processors,and that RAM is different- EEC vs. non EEC for desktops.and that is about all I know-

I wish Linus would do a series on this topic- if he hasn't already?
