  1. Hello, I have a problem. I want to buy this block, but it has installed J2 jet plate. Problem is that I want to use it on LGA2066 socket, and EK recommends J3 plate. Unfortunately, I don't have this one. How big difference will it make? I'm kinda in a hurry, and I can either buy this one used or new Alphacool Core XP3. What would you do? What do you think I should do? CPU is i7 7820X and I think it won't be changed for a long time. Also rather no heavy oc. I've bought XSPC Raystorm, but this someone sold me without proper mounts and I can't install it... And worst part is that I have 1.5hrs to make this decision.
  2. Price of both(used) is for me around 36-37USD, both pump/res combo(corsair comes out of the box as a combo, ek has addon dedicated res). Plus I need to but plugs for corsair. Apparently stolen by customer, who bought and returned it But I've found 2nd temp sensor, worthless for me(I won't buy commander, I've got thermaltake fan controller and no need to buy anything else, especially so overprice - for just 1 sensor).
  3. Both for the same price, but there's not much info about DCP. Few mentions, but lack of comparison between this and other ones... DCP has higher static pressure(4m vs 2.1m), same flow, XD5 draws more power and no info about noise - can't compare that. What do you think? Both used, both with res(combo), Corsair has broken RBG(someone desoldered leds -.-), but that's actually better for me - first thing to check for me was is there any possibility of removing rgb . And, to be honest, I have completely no idea... EDIT: If this makes any difference, I'm going soft tubing, probably only CPU and 360mm rad(from Fractal S36).
  4. TBH I don't have money for that at this moment. I've tried to check, while gaming it won't go past 350W and I think that it won't break now, but... I know that I need to replace that. I just wanted to try and check something, since there's no review about this psu. Just may be worth checking how bad it is.
  5. I was testing my psu, listed on tier d but... I ran occt psu test, power consumption - 560W. What should I check to know if it's safe? Voltages are neccesarry, but what else? Home tests, without fake load. Besides that, my X299 mobo provides a lot of voltage and current sensors - anything worth checking there? PS. There aren't any tests for this psu, so internals are a bit of mystery there... Maybe there's something more than producent claims.
  6. Are EK blocks(specifically Supreme LTX) compatible with LGA2066? It's not mounted like typical aio with standoffs(which has different length for 2011 and 2011-3/2066), so I'm wondering...
  7. Could be unusual, but I've played poker without bets, or bets like cleaning dishes
  8. You can replace one and take the rest for ultrasound cleaning and flow measurement. That'll be enough to know their condition Injector has just a coil inside.
  9. I'll have a really hard time to choose - Lian Li O11D or Odyssey X.
  10. I'm curious... In my PC I have a Thermaltake Smart SE and wondering why it's in Tier D, so I've checked spreadsheet. And... there's nothing about test, checking etc. If there's no info about it, why is it at this tier? Maybe it'll be better to add another section, with psu that haven't been tested, like tier n(not tested)? I can make some test from just curiosity, if I'll get my hands to some dummy load.
  11. Only way to fill AIO is by additional res. Been there, done that.
  12. This GPU: https://proline.pl/pny-geforce-rtx-2070-super-8gb-dualfan-p1397223 Has anyone saw water block for this? I've found only one old reddit post... Maybe something has changed since then, I've bough it at december 2019(when prices were normal one, it was very cheap and now I can sell it with nice profit :D) but recently I've thought about including it in my aio loop.
  13. Don't get fooled, most of cad/cam software doesn't use gpu too much. At least Solidworks, Catia or any Autodesk software. I wanted to use my RTX 2070 Super but it won't happen. I don't know why it isn't implemented but it looks like they just don't want to do it.
  14. I've removed few devices(with drivers) that were hidden in device manager - and it behaves a little better; for sure it's less noticeable and maybe drops for few fps less... Maybe I've deleted too much and I haven't checked if one of them helped or everything, but I get rid of i5-4670k, old wireless and Z series chipset devices and drivers(where was it possible). Any idea what else can I do? It'll have more value than few fps here, it'll be better to know something more about windows behavior
