  1. The Home Bundle has 39 pieces. Would be 5 additional small arches but 2 fewer power brick holders vs a 2x Pricing is higher than I had expected but it looks like a great management system and given their product history it will no doubt be quality. I'll just have to do a proper mock up of my current setup so I only order exactly what is needed. No way I could treat these pieces like when I order 100 clips on amazon for $9.99 and leave 92 sitting in a drawer never to be used. My question is how strong are these? Have a 1 year old wee person around the house and curious if they would be able to free the clips from under a desk. Obvious worry with strong magnets involved.
  2. I was also early into wave 1, within the first hour (order 363XXX), and received my notice of shipping 1am saturday morning. Tracking says parcel was picked up monday afternoon and is supposed to arrive to me thursday I'm in ontario and got the black and orange with the silver shaft. probably going to rebuild my PC after work just cause im excited to try it out
  3. talking about the creator color versions he mentioned they're quite expensive to produce so I think us commonfolk have to be happy with orange and black https://twitter.com/linusgsebastian/status/1568654414302572546

    Rgb mess

    it really depends on the number of fans youre trying to use but likely going to need the corsair lighting node core. comes with the 3 pack of 120s or the 2 pack of 140s if you happen to have purchased that here's a great thread detailing corsairs various hubs which im sure will guide you to what you require: Zotty's CORSAIR RGB Hardware and iCUE Eco-System FAQ - The Corsair User Forums
  5. Possibly try older drivers is the problem just recently started and you havent changed anything else. Ive had so many issues with warzone this month after upgrading my nvidia drivers. If I run the 2 latest versions Ive experienced in game crashes and reboots, especially in Zombies. Rolling back to the march 16th 461.92 has solved everything in my case. This is on a 1070ti tho crashing for me - 466.11 April 14, 2021 crashing for me - 465.89 March 30, 2021 working for me - 461.92 March 16, 2021
  6. ya i regret trusting that post now. guess I'll stick with watching double time. At least im more looking for a 3080
  7. appreciate these posts I find lately I'm watching all the LTT videos at double speed just to blast through to find out if there's a link or not and it's ruining the actual videos for me now.
  8. thanks for this link. was looking for something just like those
  9. Does it just crash to desktop or is there an in game error message upon close? if you get the game error box, searching those codes might help you narrow it down. are you on the latest chipset driver and bios update for your system? The past 2 weeks ive had crashing issues where the in game error message would say to upgrade my graphics drivers.....turns out it was the lastest drivers from 03/30 causing my issue and when i rolled back to 461.92 it solved my problems. Mine was crashing mid game, then it started doing it just cycling through menus.
  10. Syndicate, the 1993 one by Bullfrog and Syndicate Wars. Would love graphically enhanced versions as a mobile release even
  11. missed my chance as im not around during the day, but could anyone tell me if there was a variety of card options available? my understanding was that they had MSI and Asus, but was it all 1 card from each company or were there a few choices? Currently after an Asus Strix 3080 white model myself hoping I can be around for the next time...if there is one but from what I see I assume this went well
  12. no no keep what youve got! better than having nothing to use. im worried it will be another year before im able to finish my build with the gpu and ill have lost the value of the parts i currently have since my 1070ti is my bottleneck. had purchased most of my stuff last fall in anticipation of the gpu release and was going to have this pc be my baby until well into the am5/ddr5 years that said, i know im better off than many with my current rig which is quite playable
  13. fingers crossed. even if im unable it's still a great thing they're offering and it lets me know there's gamers who are gonna get their hands on some of these for a change
  14. =( was hoping it would be a monday so id be off work and have a chance to try

    Cable mod

    Youd need to list your system specs for someone to be able to do that. Depending on your motherboards power specs you might need additional EPS cables. Different GPUs need different power delivery. Also, just look at your build to see what custom cables you would actually need. What can/cant you see? Do you want custom lengths (that you would have to measure yourself) or could you use extensions or or a prebuilt kit. Take a look at the cable mod site, or even amazon to see what prebuilt sets they have that could fit your power supply/system needs For example: CableMod C-Series PRO ModMesh Cable Kit for Corsair RMi/RMX/RM (Black Label) - RED [cm-PCSR-FKIT-NKR-R]: Amazon.ca: Electronics includes these cables: 1 x 24-pin ATX cable (600mm) 1 x 8-pin EPS cable (700mm) 1 x 4+4 pin EPS cable (700mm) 2 x 8-pin PCI-e cable (600mm) 1 x 6-pin PCI-e cable (600mm) 1 x Quad SATA cable (850mm) 1 x Dual SATA cable (500mm) 1 x Dual Molex cable (500mm) but you might need more than that, fewer than that, odds are you have a different power supply. But that gives you a start
