  1. I was considering this as well but I would like to be able to only have one cord leaving the enclosed box, while still being able to control the speed of the fans. I should be able to cut a hole in the side of the case and mount the other controller where as it may be a tad more difficult with the Noctua.
  2. Agreed it is extremely overkill but everything else I could find either required a little more diy than I was looking for, or was simply more expensive with a worse ship out time. I was also considering using non-pwm fans, but it is all I have on hand at the moment so it was the cheapest route. The controller is able to provide the pulse modulation, so theoretically I would still be able to control the speed just using the controller correct?
  3. Hi, I’ve endeavored on a project creating my own air purifier, 120mm fans seem to be a decent choice since the room I’m using them in is rather small and doesn’t require a high cfm. I’m wondering if I will be able to strip the cables on a noctua NF-P12, and connect the hot and ground to this Controller using some copper lugs, leaving the speed sensor and speed control wires disconnected from the fan. This is one of my first diy projects involving any sort of electronics, so please excuse any incompetencies. Thanks!
  4. Still makes me sad that fry’s is no more.

  5. Anyone knowledgeable have any thoughts about Canada vs the US when it comes to cost of living and potential of retirement? Any thoughts on police and right to privacy? I have been looking into emigrating to Canada, I have no ideal area picked out yet but looking for somewhere hopefully near a larger city, and not *too* extreme when it comes to weather (I am expecting torrential snow and rain).

      I live in Vancouver which depending on who you talk to is becoming one of the most expensive places to live in in north america. Though its one of the best cities in canada. 

      At the moment we're having a really rough time economically with inflation, gas prices, and grocery store items. But i have plenty of friends living off approximately 50k CAD a year living in basement suites with a room mate. My situation is a bit easier since I'm a hardware engineer but it can still feel a bit rough when you see what you used to pay for something a few years ago and what you pay for it now. 

      Police will always be a problem. You see a lot less police brutality in canada but theres also a lot different kind of problems we have here, we of course have much stricter bans on guns so you can certainly feel safer walking into an elementary school without being shot.
      Theres still terrible things happening to minorities in canada, specifically the first nations people but IMO as a country we're getting better despite what my more radical friends might say. 
      I think youll have the same right to privacy as any other first world country that you might think so move to (i.e. Britain, Australia, US). if theres something in particular you're worried about might want to google it.

      My memory is southern Canada has a climate a lot like Minnesota.  Minnesota has snowbirds that winter in Florida or Texas or Arizona.  I don’t know if that is an issue in Canada or not

      I've only ever lived in vancouver my whole life so i comment on that haha. "southern canada" is probably like 80% of canada's entire population. about 50% live below the 49th parallel.
      If you're expecting a big city then dont go much further than Vancouver, Edmonton, Toronto, Ottawa. You can go montreal or quebec city but those cities are bilingual french/english. You can get by with just english but the other options are far better imo.

  6. The us doesn't even have reserve anymore, the US dollar isn't backed by anything more than a dream and a prayer. public in that you can see the wallet id in which the crypto was sent and received, nothing more. Most smart people use multiple different wallet id's and or change them frequently so this isn't an issue.

    time to make a port scanner.

  8. 11700 is better than the 3600 for gaming. but 11700 is worse than the 5600 for gaming.
  9. PCIE is backwards compatible, that shouldn't be an issue. have you tried to enable or disable CSM like senzelian said?
  10. if you have AC is it reasonable to leave the house at 78f/25.55c? I feel like I'm fucking dying right now, and this person won't open a single goddamn window because of allergies

      it's only 84f 😞

      "only" 84?

      Spoiler

      Actually, that's about how hot it gets here in the summer. 80-85F, sometimes up to 90F.

      But it gets a lot hotter in Phoenix, where some of my relatives (not sure exactly what) live.

      I completely agree, I'm even fine at 72f/22.22c, but anything over that and I start sweating.

      I don't sweat much, and when I do, it's because:
      A. I've been running/riding my bike for at least half an hour

      B. It's 90+ degrees F.

      its in the 40s (F) outside and I have the AC on in my office.. Currently its 78f in here.

      Depends on how effective your air conditioning is, and outside temperature.

      If it's 84f, and the AC isn't having issues keeping up, then you might be able to have a conversation about it: Alternatively, you can get a window-mounted AC unit for your room, or have a conversation about paying for more of the electricity (I'm assuming this is a house/apartment, and this person is not a parent).

       

      Sometimes, people can set unreasonable temperatures as a money thing. If that's truly where they're comfortable, though, I would recommend having a conversation about compromise.

  11. how about you do what other people have been suggesting and file a complaint with your local consumer protection agency... try and file a return at the store you bought or file a complaint with your local consumer protection agency, 1 or the other
  12. you're only looking at the bandwidth, not latencies and any other of the sub timings and weird shit that ram has.
  13. your display cable is plugged into the gpu? did you rename the file with the tool and move it to the root directory of the drive? have you checked all your connections?
  14. try flashing again, make sure you follow these directions https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1038568/ and use this bios https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-z490-f-gaming-model/helpdesk_bios
