Edit - even stupid sounding methods like having the 4 pin header go to a weird fan controller doodad are accepted

Hi all, I recently swapped out the fans of my XFX R9 380 as the old ones just didnt spin at all, so i got some new ones, installed them and they span!...... very fast. Even if i put the fan at manual mode at 0RPM in the Radeon software, the lowest i've seen it is 1940RPMish, and this is because i have just realised that the GPU fans are 3 pin, even though the header is a 4 pin. So, is there a way of controlling the voltage going to the 3 pin fans on my new GPU fans? thank you

If anyone like garage rock, listen to this album, it's fantastic

They're illegal if you don't own the original games, and if you do have the game but download the ROM for it then it's sort of a grey area. Making the ROM yourself in most places is perfectly fine. That Quadro isn't amazing for gaming if you're looking to play demanding modern games at high settings https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-Quadro-M620-GPU-Benchmarks-and-Specs.213796.0.html

my main PC is just called my main PC or desk PC, and my TV PC is called the TV PC I'm not overly into naming things

yes please

you guys still have the discord?

This album is fantastic, Kanye's verse is absolutely fucking amazing, makes me even more hyped for friday!

You heard the new Jon Hopkins album? The first half is fantastic, second half falls off slightly but it's still a pretty good album

I'd ask over at the New Builds and Planning section, remember to look at the sticky post before posting

I'm personally quite behind on hardware at the moment, so I'm not the person to ask I'm afraid! What's your budget?

I personally think that PC gaming is massively better than console gaming not because "wow the graphics look marginally better" (dont kill me i just dont give a shit about graphics), but beacuse of framerates, customisability, the fact it's a normal PC and has all of that functionality and backwards compatability, so I think it's worth the extra time saving money. Oh and emulators if you're into that, they're cool.

I think it's stupid mostly, but some mice are made specifically for certain grips iirc

they are quite handy for general web browsing/portable consumption of media even though i dont use them myself
