    Modhouse Argon MK3's are well known for having this sound Review here: Buy here: https://www.modhouseaudio.com/argon-mk3/zimu3wz0oyxlavnprki2jovso6c31v

    THANK YOU! IT WORKED!!! That program is awesome!

    I can on all of the other ones, but it's greyed out and unclickable on Disk 0 (my ssd)

    It is greyed out and won't let me click on it

    It's the one that shows as "Disc 0 Partition 13" in the picture above

    All of the ones I can see listed have names

    The drive shows up in BIOS, but it's a SATA SSD

    I just installed a 1TB SSD in my PC, and for whatever reason it won't show in windows. The recommended fix is to go through disk management and to create a "New Simple Volume" etc. etc. on any unallocated storage (highlighted in black), however in my case this doesn't work (my drive is highlighted as blue, meaning primary partition?). Being that my drive shows differently than seen in any of the YouTube tutorials that I could find, I need a different way to fix this as the others don't work. As you can see below, my 1TB SSD does not show in my files. Where do I go from here?

    A 240 should cool almost anything fine, Gamers Nexus's, and Optimum Tech's CPU test benches use 240mm AIO's and so it would likely be more than fine for daily use.

    280`s and 360`s usually only produce at most a 5 degree variation in temps under load when testing using a 9900K at 5Ghz with 1.28V in my own experience. The difference in performance is not significant unless you are cooling a higher core count CPU (like Threadripper; which may benefit in sustained clock speeds slightly) or going for straight performance over value.

    Seeing as almost every AIO is an Asetec partner cooler, it really just comes down to what generation of pump your unit has (most commonly Gen 5-7) and the static pressure of the included fans to guarantee the best performance. -NZXT is currently the first Asetec partner to feature the new Gen 7 pump (on the Z63 & Z73 models), however they retail around $250-280 USD per unit which is relatively high when compared to the Gen 5 and 6 counterparts. -Corsair is well rounded -Enermax coolers as of now suffer from corrosion and internal growth (fix in progress) -EVGA currently has some of the highest static pressure fans on any Asetec partner AIO cooler (74-113.5 CFM) on CLC 280 & CLC 360. -ASUS has hate it or love it ROG branding and a MASSIVE pricetag -Cooler Master is yucky -Thermaltake is meh I personally would recommend the NZXT Kraken X62 and X72, as after the release of the new Z63 and Z73 coolers, NZXT has lowered their prices. They're well-rounded much like the Corsair coolers, however NZXT has better software.

    Used 1080Ti`s are the best bet rn, they are faster than both 2060 Super`s and 5700xt`s, plus they`re priced similarly at roughly $400-$450 USD for a good A.I.B. card when you price filter your search on ebay. I personally bought an EVGA FTW3 1080Ti for just $431.60 USD today.

    eBay guarantees a refund even is the seller refuses to pay. The seller will likely be banned if eBay finds after evaluation that they sold you a damaged card and refused to refund the money.

    CPU (new): AMD Ryzen 5 2600 $138 MOBO (new): MSI B450 Tomahawk Max $115 RAM (new): 16GB Patriot Viper Steel DDR4-3000 $68 GPU (used): Nvidia GTX 1060 $85 PSU (new): Corsair RMx 550W 80+ Gold $90 Case (new): Deepcool Matrexx 70-ADD-RGB $92 = $588 USD total (plus shipping if applicable) Pretty decent for 1080p gaming, however I would recommend upgrading and or starting a new build annually every 3 to 5 years afterwards to keep up to date with the latest hardware.

    fixed it for me

    5700XT is currently only good for 60-75 FPS in 1440p max settings, I personally would go for 90-100 FPS in 1080p max settings to be honest.

    Seeing as a 4.7Ghz OC on a 16 core processor would run unreasonably hot on any generic cooler, why not... MANUALLY DISABLE CORES 9-16 ON THE RYZEN 9 3950X AND MAKE THE FASTEST RYZEN 3000 / AMD CPU FOR GAMING YET AT A 4.7GHZ OVERCLOCK! essentially turning it into a better binned 3800X (+200Mhz) Just for video sake of course... as disabling 8 cores on a $1,000 CPU in order to attain higher sustainable overclocks is unrealistic for the average consumer... Call it "The FASTEST RYZEN 3000 CPU Yet!" (with *insert* linus clickbait face and bright colors in the thumbnail)

    Deepcool Matrexx 70 ADD-RGB, best bang for the buck case, I own it myself! -$81 USD / $108 CAD -comes with 4 fans pre-installed -Support for up to a 360mm Rad in front and another up top -tempered glass side panel -tempered glass front panel -metal PSU shroud with integrated RGB strip -the only case to have a tinted reflective glass cover for the PSU shroud. Review here:

    Just bought an EVGA SC2 Hybrid 1080 Ti, I was thinking of mounting the rad & fan at the rear of my case but I've heard others say not to. Where should I mount it? Should it share the top of my case with my 280mm AIO?

    Electrical interference with your audio output.

    An RTX 2060/Super is essentially just a GTX 1080 with Ray Tracing cores, so the FPS really doesn't come as a surprise.
  23. KnowledgeByTech
    What resolution?

    Since your CPU lacks hyperthreading, there is simply less CPU to be utilized when compared to another CPU with hyperthreading. It is perfectly normal that you are seeing high utilization on a 6 core / 6 thread CPU when compared to a 6 core / 12 thread CPU.

    most of those coolers wont do too much better than the stock cooler, so if your going for a good budget cpu cooler, than just stick with the included one and save $30 to spend on something else.
