  1. This is happening to myself and my friends they are also using RTX cards. My card is a RTX 3070 

    I thought it was nvidia drivers being the issue but you are using a 5700 xt?

    What is up with league of legends and the random fps spikes to 1 fps my screen freezes for second which is putting myself and my friends at a disadvantage

     

    My specs are 

    AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT 3.8 GHz 12-Core Processor    

    Motherboard Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard   

    Memory G.Skill Trident Z Neo 64 GB (4 x 16 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory   

    Video Card Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070 8 GB GAMING OC Video Card

  2. Hello everyone!

    I am in need of a new gaming headset because my wired Corsair Void Pro has seen better days, the sleeving is damaged, and my ear padding are worn out.

    I am looking to purchase a wireless headset this time because of my new setup and how the layout is. 

    I am looking at lots of options and so far the only two that peek my interest are the Hyper X Cloud Flight S model (2020) and the SteelSeries Arctis 7 (2019) model.
    They are in the price range of $180-$200 CAD. (Canadian)

    Is there anyone that can recommend more or help me decide between the two ? Thank you

    I would just sell the last fan as it basically woudln't change the temperatures, but it will still add to noise and you could only put it on the panel with the mobo but it won't look very good with just one fan on it.

    I see, one more question what do you mean last one 

    Why can't I put it at the back ?? 

    This is my case

    PC-O11D XL - A brilliant upgrade of the O11D. | LIAN LI is a ...

  4. Hello, I have a Lian Li O11 Dynamic XL , and I was wondering what would be the best fan/radiator set up?

    I got a real good deal on my 6 LL Corsair RGB fans 4x LL120MM and 2x LL140MM, I got them for only $175 CAD when it would have costed me $372. 

    I also have a x62 NZXT 280MM aio cooler.

     

    I wanted to know where should I place my fans?

    I was thinking about putting my radiator on the top but wasn't sure if I should make it exhaust or intake

    and 3 LL120MM fans as exhaust on the side and 1 LL120MM for the back rear as an exhaust as well.

    The last two LL140MM fans I wanted to put at the bottom since it supports 280MM at the bottom, as intake for the case.

     

  5.  Just a quick bump, 

    is there anyone else who has a 3900x with an AIO cooler similar to the x62 NZXT ?

     

    What are your temperatures around?

     

    I tried my best , I wired everything almost perfectly in organization and cable management and to have as much air flow as possible but its still sitting in the 50s and sometimes spiking from 45s-70s but averaging at 50s. 

    I even  reapplied the AIO it self and screwed it from opposite corners to get equal surface and to screw it in tight as possible its still the same thing

    The idle temperature ranges are fairy normal, but the peak temperature spikes seem slightly high while idle. Have you tried removing the front panel from the case to see if there were any change in temperatures. I'm assuming the radiator is mounted at the front of the case.

    Yes my radiator is mounted  on the front of my nzxt h500 case, with the fans in between the radiator and mounting device that comes with the nzxt h500 as an intake fan, but I have not tried removing the front panel , how do you do that ?

    How is the contact of the block with the ihs?

    It spreaded the thermal paste correctly, I made sure to check the first time by lifting it and seeing if that was the issue but it was evenly spreaded, so I just reapplied a pea size to a bit more amount of thermal paste for my 3900x

     

    After these pictures I, added a very tiny amount more to the center and spreaded it evenly

  8. Hello I seem to have an issue with my temperatures on my 3900x,

    I was told my idle temperatures seem a bit too high with an aio cooler on my 3900x ?

    I idle around 40-50°C and sometimes spike to 60-65°C for a second or two resulting in my maximum hitting 65 on HWInfo64 but it averages around 50.

    I was told to stress test my CPU by using prime95 and 5 mins in I had an average of 75 °C   

    Maximum was 80 °, after 20 minutes it reached the 95°then I just stopped the test

    I tried reapplying the thermal paste but that didnt help is this normal?

    This was true of the original, only because the cooler height was under 155mm tall which did not allow for "good" CPU towers to be used in that case that could meet or exceed the performance of AIO's. 

     

    However, the XL has a cooler height of 167mm, so you can feasibly use a NH-D15, Scythe Fuma 2 or Dark Rock Pro 4 (assuming you're using low profile RAM) However most people still do water cooling, because the case so easily supports what was previously unheard of amount of radiators in a small footprint and an affordable price.

    Oh i see, so if I was to use my NZXT x62 280mm AIO cooler and 6 120m fans for the bottom and side that will be okay?

  10. Hello everyone ,

    I wanted to know if its alright to be cooling a system with a x62 NZXT cooler and 7 120mm fans 3 on the side and 3 on the bottom and 1 at the back for the LIAN LI O11 Dynamic XL ROG.

    I was told that a "unspoken rule" of the Lian Li case is meant for Water cooling?? I really love the aesthetics of the case and its on sale  for a good price I just want to know if its alright to be cooling the case with 6 120mm fans and a x62 280mm aio cooler as well

     

    I noticed that people do tend to have custom water cooling for the full tower LIAN LI O11 Dynamic XL ROG case so I was just concerned if It would be doing me worst than good air cooling with such a bag case

     

     

  11. Hello, I have a question . I am in need to look for a new cooler and I'm deciding to get an AIO cooler for my current PC because I have 4x16 GB Trident Z RAM , and the first slot is being blocked by my Windale 6 FSP Air cooler.

    So I am currently only using 2 sticks 2x16. 

    I wanted to get the NZXT x62 AIO cooler because my current case the nzxt h500 can only fit up to 280MM for a Radiator.

    I wanted to ask if the cooler will have any clearance issues with 4 RAM sticks especially with the Trident Z heat sink .

    If there is issues, can someone recommend a good AIO cooler that won't have any issues. 

    I am asking because theres an old thread about the x62 having some issues for others and some don't depending on the MOBO they own.

    Here's the link to the old thread https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/748016-does-the-nzxt-kraken-x62-block-the-first-memory-slot-on-all-motherboards/page/2/

    I would invest in a longer cable. Wi-Fi depending on the setup and environment can misbehave like this and figuring out the cause is always a pain. If wired Ethernet is an option for you definitely go that route. It makes a difference over Wi-Fi.

    Is there a preference in which type? Cat6 and cat5e or whatever the options are

  13. Hello, I have been having issues with my Wi-Fi , It seems to be stable for about 5-10 minutes and then it disconnects for about 10-20 seconds and then it goes back to normal? 

    It keeps happening when im in game/call and its really annoying because it just kicks me out.

     

    I am trying to figure out why this happens because its my first time using the WiFi because I moved my setup away from my modem but im still near it just not long enough for my ethernet wire to connect. 

    So I decided why not use the wifi that it comes with 

    but here I am having issues with connection and disconnecting

     

    If I am getting a longer ethernet cable If I have to, whats the better one? whats the difference between cat6 and cat5e

    This is my pc build

  14. Hello, I just had a scary experience. I recently got a 3900x as a gift and I decided to upgrade my current ryzen 2600 with it. I did the usual update the bios ready for ryzen 3000s , it was working for the day i was gaming fine, browsing the internet perfectly. till night time and all of a sudden the screen froze and went black but went back to the way it was, but a few minutes again it just turned black and stayed black and it wasnt responding. I decided to reboot and it wasnt showing anything all my LEDS on my gpu and the  fans  were spinning. I decided to jump start CMOS and it held the DEL key after jump starting the CMOS it worked and started back into bios. but should I avoid using the ryzen 3900x now with the b450f board I heard the VRMs on the board isnt going to handle the 3900x well, and I guess that was the reason why my pc became all wonky just now. Have I damaged any of my parts because of this? I was planning to save up and get a x570 but now I'm afraid ill have to get  one quick

  15.  

    Hey there I'm referring to this tier of PSU's but I'm stuck between these two options for the Tier A+ in the list that was provided.

    I am in Canada so keep in mind of $CAD currency

    I currently have a very old PSU from my old build and I am in need to upgrade it soon, I recently got a 3900x as a gift and now I need a new PSU because my current one 

    is very outdated, its a EVGA SuperNova NEX 750W 80+ Gold I had it for about 7-8 years now.

    My current build consist of components like 3900x obviously, and a 2070 RTX super

     

     

    Right now the two PSUs I have my eye's on are the:

     

    be quiet! Straight Power 11 750W Gold, and

    Deepcool DQ750M Gold both full modular.
