    SinisterVirtue got a reaction from LIGISTX in I have no idea what happened, but I'm having some issues.   
    Hmmm, I'll take it apart and double check everything even apply fresh thermal paste before popping it back in my case. Be back in a little bit. 
     
    I took it apart, removed the thermal paste, applied new thermal paste and reseated the card. It sounds like the pump is running, I heard a rush of fluid, but being a Closed Loop how can I tell? My idle temps have dropped to 52c, but that's still way hotter than the idle temps earlier this morning when it was sitting pretty at 27c. 
     
    Solid advice, I went ahead and held the rad above the pump and sounds of air bubbles raced through. Idle temps back to 25c. Huge weight off my shoulders. Thanks for being persistent about double checking everything.

    I forgot to add that I'm getting him a set of 5 purple ring 120mm fans, since that's his favorite color and always talks about getting a pc with purple leds. I was going to throw 2 of the 5 120mm fans onto the rad and the rest throughout the case.

    Seems like a good deal to me, mining honestly isn't as bad for GPU's as people make out, and if it has 2 year warranty still there's literally no risk.

    Yeah I would've preferred an eVGA, but I didn't act soon enough.

    I just received my Gigabyte GTX 1080 G1 Gaming in the mail, I had to remove the fans/heat sink and blackplate to attach the liquid cooler from NZXT, I'm going to go ahead an assume this clear plastic film on the backplate should've been removed at the factory?

    For mITX, Loque Ghost S1 will give you better flexibility for custom watercooling over similar cases like the NCase M1 or Dan CAse A4/C4. 
     
    Not the case at all

    Here's a list of all the Small Form Factor PCs currently available (mostly) for sale. Includes boutique like the NCase M1/Dan A4/Louqe Ghost and some mass produced ones too.
     
    Happy hunting.

    Anyway, net income also doesn't necessarily mean anything about the company's stock either. Amazon for years operated with a net income that was relatively low compared to its gross income, but its market cap kept growing.

    Seems like a fairly decent price really. I am assuming it is all used of course. Not a bad intro PC. 
     
    It's not the best but it will get some basic gaming and light editing done.

    UFDTech did a video on this, with commentary about how this was patched for the most part. I think he said impacts were still more on the lower end cards.
     
    I'm not into conspiracy theories, but considering the amount of impact on day 1, I wonder if this was done to impact release benchmarks on day one, since i think it got fixed in day two?

    SinisterVirtue got a reaction from ZacoAttaco in Why did you buy an iPhone?   
    This is going to sound really stupid, but, I drive a 2016 Chevy Silverado and I wanted to play Soundcloud through the radio because I can't get access to foreign music on Pandora. So, I tested my buddy's iPhone 7 and the software sync'd up perfectly to my radio, unlike my Samsung S7 where I had to download a special app, even with the app from Android, SoundCloud wasn't usable. So, I upgraded to an iPhone X and it works as intended.
