I think it was here...

Yea, it was an accident, as I said, late night shopping

I was doing some late night shopping and just out of curiosity I wanted to check how much ram clearance I had etc cos I'm running a large tower cooler. I whipped out my fav measuring tape (a very compact one) and I ever so slightly missed my measuring point and lightly tapped a chip on the board (Gigabyte Z490 Vision G). The system shut off however luckily I didn't smell any burnt electronics. Could it be the mobo? Or psu? I cannot believe my... unluck. (I tried turning the psu on and off, etc, nothing.) Any help is appreciated, e.

the nf a12x25 is static pressure oriented so for use on heatsinks, radiators or restrictive cases. What case do you have? That would be one of the determining factors

Hence why it is my next upgrade, any suggestions on what psu to get? Ideally fully modular?

so no XMP or anything, however I plan on OCing the 10600kf to 5.1ghz on my nh-d15 once I get a new psu with more eps connectors (rn I only have one 8pin)

Yea thats also on the list of things to replace lol. I think it actually is faster but my current crapfest of a board doesnt support any form of ram OCing

amazon, I got it for approx 210eur, I think it was among the last ones tho...

thanks mate

Thanks, one sec ur from slovakia? me too

I have a H510 from NZXT, a recent addition, I have a Corsair VS550 non modular PSU, which is due for an upgrade very soon, and ram is 2*8gb HyperX fury ddr4 @2133 mhz yes I know its slow but it was the only stuff I could get my hands on when I built my original system hence why I went with intel not amd (and cos it was cheaper lol)

a) could you link the video? thx b) ofc I made sure not to get a crappy board ;))

what do you mean...? What could be wrong with the voltages?

Really? I heard there could be driver incompatibilities etc. that could cause problems due to it being a different chipset and CPU?

Hello world, I have an i5 6500 and MSI B150M Pro-VDH in my current running system however I decided I wanted to upgrade as it has been proving to be the main slow down of my system (I plan on streaming games and thats just not possible with the current hardware). So after a lot of thinking I decided to go with an i5 10600KF and a Gigabyte Z490 Vision G. I am not building a whole new system and I would like to keep all my data or at least as much of it as possible (I have one boot drive and 2 other drives for storage). Will the swap require a reinstall of windows? If yes, what else do I need to do? Maybe link a vid? I have quite a bit of experience building but swapping CPUs and Mobos in an existing system is just something I have not done yet. Thank you e.

I got it downloaded, where do I find the fan controls?

I used speedfan as I heard it is popular. And these are the options that I had...

I connected it to the SYSFAN2 cos I didnt have easy access to SYSFAN1. I have a MSI B150M PRO-VDH

Yes one SATA power and one 4 pin of which only 2 pins were connected. I connected as instructed in the instructions, in the bios I saw the rpm readout however I wasnt able to control it

Hello world, I recently received my Arctic PWM fan hub and once I connected all the fans to it and went into the bios I had no control over the RPM and they went very fast making lots of noise. Any help is appreciated, e.

u mean fan series/family/lineup? is it fine if I have 3 sp 120s and 3 sp 140s?

Lets say I have 6 fans, 3 120s and 3 140s, and I want to hook them up. Each fan has 2 cables if I'm not mistaken, one PWM and one RGB, the PWM I would hook up a PWM hub and the RGB to the node core which would come in one of the 3 packs, what does the node core connect to?

I unfortunately don't have the possibility of DIYing much... As far as my research goes I do not need a RGB header, just a USB, which I have. Is the lighting node pro necessary?

Hello world, I have recently thought about getting some RGB life into my system and knowing that corsair is among the best out there, thought it would probably best to go down that route. I found the cheapest way to do this would be their refreshed SP iCUE compatible series of fans because they don't look awful and aren't overpriced unlike the LLs. The thing I do not know is whether I need a RGB header on my motherboard for it to work. Would I then also be able to hook up some rgb strips? Any advice is appreciated, e.

Will I still be able to use software to control it?
