    Water-cooling a PC using a urinal. Set it up with a flapper or other mechanical trigger to set off the urinal IR sensor when temps get above a certain threshold.
     
    I currently have a fever and may be especially dumb at the moment.

    DeltaGemini got a reaction from Col. Sandurz in PC won't boot after power outage (unexpected IO error, file boot\BCD, status 0xc00000e9)   
    I had a very similar issue with error code 0x00000e9, and the winload.efi describing an I/O error. This was on a Gigabyte X470 board.
     
    Turns out I had to disable fTPM and then it booted fine. I've since updated BIOS and re-enabled fTPM.
     
    Mine occured after accidentally unplugging the desktop before it fully shutdown.
     
    Best of luck!

    DeltaGemini reacted to Berfs1 in AM4 motherboards with front-side USB-C?   
    You need to look for an "AM4 motherboard with a USB 3.1 G2 header". Type C is not definitively USB 3.0 or USB 3.1. However, most front panel Type C ports are G2 (10Gbps), so you will want to find a motherboard that has that header. But do check the case you are getting, as that may have the Type C header as a normal USB 3.0 header.

    It's their out-of-the-box clock speeds. Both can be overclocked, but the 2600X is already clocked higher, and your chances of reaching a higher OC are slightly better with the 2600X. They usually have around the same limit though.
