q300 and q500 are not the same case, yes, but both have those diminute holes, so while one has noral psu placement, the hot air generated doesn't go anywhere really, so still you cook the hardware, mounted verically or horizontally

cooler master has to come with a case that doesn't have a dust filter covering their stupid small and really few holes to move cold air inside the case and not cook parts inside

as steve said on their multiple videos about the topic, a case revision should have more and bigger holes, the case is nice, but is meant for hardware that works cold

there was fear combat, it depends on gamespy servers that no longer exist, if you can't create local session over lan and play with another person locally, there is no fear multiplayer anymore, is a old abandoned game

i changed my 24" monitor to a 43" tv

the old monitor had a 3.5mm output, so i could use directly my logitech z523 speakers no problem

the new tv only has toslink, a friend gave me a toslink to 3.5mm converter that works well

the problem i have is that i can't control the volume in any form from the tv, it disables audio control, i have to use the volume controls on the speaker, i would like to have control over a reote control

is there such device? i find lots of dacs but with amplifier, the logitech doesn't need that, those are powered speakers for desktop pc

there is one that has a remote, but it seems that is only for headphone volume control

am i wrong or my only option is a soundbar?  i would like to keep using these speakers untill they die, so i don't want the soundbar approach yet

I am looking for an Aux splitter not hdmi...

i know, i offered a different solution, i already mentioned it, read reply

you can buy a killawatt to know exactly how much watts each device uses

https://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-Kill-a-Watt/dp/B01D1YA8G2/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?keywords=killawatt&qid=1565542479&s=gateway&sr=8-2

well, i have a monitor that has audio output, i connected my speakers to it

since it also has 1 hdmi imput, i bougth this

https://www.amazon.com/PrinceShop-Splitter-Switcher-Multifunction-switching/dp/B07K9K4FG3/ref=mp_s_a_1_58?keywords=hdmi+switch+3+in+1+out&qid=1565540999&s=gateway&sprefix=hdmi+switch+3&sr=8-58

so i dont have to fight with cables, i think it os not what you ask, but i think is more simple

the hdmi has 3 inputs, on 1 i connect tv, on the other i connected ps3 and in the third i sometimes connect another pc i need sometimes, the hdmi switch has a function that when it detects a device has been turned on, it changes to that input automatically, so is great in that respect, audio and video both goes to the monitor, it has a button to select each of the 3 inputs if you wish

there is a model with remote control to select input and to turn off the device

Everything is in the sig.

 

I got 3000 RPM fans so I don't think it can get any better.

 

3000 rpm all the time, you got deaf then!

airflow and low temperatures doesnt depend only on that, also in the amount of fans, internal flow, place where you put the radiator, if you put fans in push or pull, there is alot you can do to improve or to decrease performance

fpga can be programed to do alot, mostly emulation of other platforms, is meant to be a chip that is not fast, but can adapt to do alot of things

soc is basically a cpu with ram controller, gpu and a couple more stuff needed to make almost a entire pc, except for ram, storage and network adapters and of course, electricity controller for battery or power adapter

a soc, think of it as a smartphone, as a tablet, as some cheap chromebooks, some tvs use a soc

some low end laptops have almost a soc, like amd apus, sort of

a fpga can emulate a soc, but a soc cant emulate a fpga basically

pci express is backwards compatible, it has to work even with pcie 2 or pcie 1

also will have to work with pci e4 and pci e5 when is released in 5 or 6 years

is like a usb port, you can use stuff from almost 15 years or more, as long as the standard exist and is used

what you might need is a motherboard bios update, sometimes is needed, but is a rare situation

a big reservoir doesnt help, the reservoir would mean just more water to be cooled by the radiator

who does all the work is the radiator and the fans

perhaps what you can do is handle better airflow, that could control temperatures better, but since you gave 0 details, no idea what is best for you

ask support directly to autodesk, they have their own personnel to support their products

surely the repair is change the lcd, the cost might be near the cost of a new monitor, in that case you need to consider if is worth to buy the part and replace it yourself or just recycle them and buy a different brand or model

i have here 2 a400, for boot drives abd for games, for that price i paid, i cant complain

if it is new, is making noises it shouldnt and you dont like that, return it

Do you mean you are using the same activation code for windows 10 or you are using the same installation of windows 10? When you change motherboard, you have to have clean slate. You need to format and i'd disable any onboard graphics from the bios too.

he doesnt have to install from clean, windows 10 can adapt, is not ideal but it can be done

That's not a fact backed up by anything.

MS has made a hash of updated (fact) since Win10 was first released. It's simply a matter of time before they hose something up again. The fact they are using the general populace as bug finders/beta testers because they fired their QA/QC staff, says as much.

they had faith it was going to be like on linux, where you report and improve things, didnt worked lol

at low resolutions, stream requires more than 5mbps upload to do it well at high resolutions and good image quality

most streamers use 10 minimum, you have less than 5

anthem is a complete failure, dont even consider it, reviews put it between the worst games released recently

bricked systems do happen, is a reality, happened alot in 1803

it might happen again, the way it is being done allows for this

you can stop updates from happening for some time, but still, you eventually need them

I actually do have a retail version of windows 7 pro sitting around.  I can install windows 10 pro and that key will work?

that is what i said

to install from usb search for windows 10 iso download

the first option on google should be the official tool to create the usb installer, follow steps and remember to select 64bit installer only

the only option now is windows 10 64bit

you shouldnt use 32bits, only uses 3gbs of ram

windows 7 will reach end of life in a couple months, is a 10 year old os, no one should use it anymore

if you still have a retail version of windows 7 pro, you can install windows 10 pro and use that license to activate windows 10, microsoft allows this

i dont have that corsair ram but i have used corsair always on amd without issues, in fact i am using a lpx module and wasnt suposed to be meant for amd but i even overclocked it abit

it should work i think, but cl18 is high, i would go for cl15 if possible, the speed is good to have but you can overclock abit if you want, so if you find a cl16 or fastet at 3200 i would prefer that

I honestly don't understand the whole bigger is better thing, to me the trade off is definitely not worth it. If it is a FOV thing, just sit closer to your monitor, it's exactly the same result but better response times.

if he doesnt want to sit, but he will be on his bed, the distance cannot be altered that easily, that is why it is important the size of the display/tv here

Thank you guys for all the help!

I think i will get a NH-D15 since it will fit and have been thinking of getting it for awhile.

 

May i ask where does one go to play with the fan curves?

After viewing the videos, i notice they mention bios updating.

Should i update my bios to the latest version? since i did not touch it since i bought it. Current version is "F2 - AMD AGESA Combo-AM4 1.0.0.3 "

 

the fan curve for the cpu fan is located inside the bios

the gt 1030 uses like 30 watts, perhaps uses less that the old one

the suggestion about 300watts is to be sure you have enough power to feed cpu and gpu at the same time, if you have a cpu that eats 200watts plus the rest of the system, it would be a bit close to the limit, but current cpus barely use 100 watts under a stress test, you should not even reach half of maximum capacity of that psu i think
