I have no experience however, looking at the photos of the case I can see that the third column of standoffs is right against the rubber passthroughs .. so no it wouldn't be ideal for an eATX board.
-
If I'm understanding this right, if i had the 2 x4 drives and 2 x1 cards, the gpu would run at x4 speed(since htats the highest available/compatible speed)? Or Would something get disabled
-
Having the 2 drives and Say I add a usb card and a sata expansion card, both being x1. Would the graphics card just run at x6 speeds ?? All just hypothetical, just trying to figure out how it works lol
-
I have a 2200g on a b450 chipset. Because of the apu, I only have 8 lanes availabl. I know i can run a graphics card at x8 speed and have minimal, if any, decrease in performance. My question is, what would happen if I had NVMe storage?? Couldn't find anything and I'm genuinely curious.

leave it pluged in

Phanteks P600s or Evolv X Great looking cases, great airflow (just watched a video where is slightly out preformed the Meshify S2 .. believe it was a Bitwit or hardwarecanucks video) http://www.phanteks.com/Eclipse-P600s.html http://www.phanteks.com/Enthoo-Evolv-X.html

Wouldn't hurt to press it once, but I never have Wall on or off?? You mean the breaker?? Keep it on
-
Kyle from BitWit has a video on this, called something along the lines of "Can the DR4 PRO be used passively?" .. There was a slight increase in temps but not enough to stop me from removing the front fan
-
ASUS should've known that the majority of PSU get mounted fanside down .. no idea why they wouldn't design it around that fact .. but for the 10 year warranty, thats a long time of minimal air to the PSU .. wonder if they've made that able to void your warranty .. i just use an outlet plug and then plug my system into that to see how much I'm pulling from the wall
-
i like the looks of the 280x better, my vote goes ahi
-
.. but I want to see my live wattage usage
-
probably not a good idea, I've personally killed a psu from not allowing air to get to it .. took my PC off the desk and sat it directly on the carpet forgetting the psu was facing down

Corsair H100i v2 High Idle and Load Temps
GeoSquigg replied to JXS's topic in Custom Loop and Exotic Cooling
that usually means pump is working .. if it weren't, the hoses would feel the same -
I got into it knowing nothing more than CPUs are the brains, and prebuilt units were expensive and didn't always have what i wanted .. used Techquickie's as fast as possible to get into the custom PC world. If he used a term i didn't know, paused the video and searched for an as fast as possible episode on that term. Eventually I had so many tabs open i couldn't find my original video .. but hey, it was all worth it bc now I'm 2 years in and know plenty about it, but don't ask about anything prior to kaby lake and FX lol

Thru Verizon Wireless (here), used to have Spectrum internet but the upped the cost to $75 for 100mbps and verizon was sending advertisements about 5G home for $50 for its current plan holders. For $85 I get phone and home service now. -

-

I'm loving my 5g networking tho, have it for the house -
In short, buy a laptop the problem with building a portable desktop is carrying the peripherals too. "pretty low budget," Smaller builds cost as much, if not more than an equally powerful ATX system. For whatever reason, ITX costs a ton of money When i first started working here, we used solidworks on thinkpad E580s with i5s and 16g of ram. We do offhighway and military transmissions, so you'll be fine modeling whatever the school will need you to. These can be had for less than $500 new and throw in an 8g ram stick for less than $75 Next best to not getting a laptop and keeping it semi portable would be a smaller all in one computer that runs windows OS Set up doesn't take much effort or time, its the repetitiveness that become the pain. With a laptop, open, power on, go. Maybe plug it in too
-
after this, im going to stick with all 9 going in .. the flex on the board when trying to remove the 24 pin and a few other cables was insane .. just left it plugged in till got all the other screws in
-
went over to a mates place to help him with some basic computer maintenance, cable management and rebuilding (see below) my girlfriend came along to hang with my mates girl. She looked at what we were doing and asked "is that what over clocking is?" we both just looked at her for a few seconds before face palming and the showing her later what overclocking is lol ~~guy that helped my mate build it was a knob as far a i can tell. -plugged fans direct to PSU via molex -had every cable of a semi modular psu plugged in and just stuffed in the case -had a dual channel kit running in single channel. -Said only the 4 corner mobo screws needed screwed in -Told buddy that the prongs on the io shield needed to fold into the port to keep it steady -Only 3 PSU screws were in -had the front usb pluged into both 2.0 and 3.0 headers causing the 3.0 not to work Idk who this guy is but needs to stay away from "helping" others build thier first PC~~
