Been using magnetic connectors for a year now and it's been working fine. I was just hoping I could find something that would charge my phone like the SuperVOOC charger but magnetically. 35 from 0 to full. Otherwise I have to unplug my magnetic charging bit to plug in the VOOC which defeats the purpose of having magnetic chargers.

Does anything like that exists? And will it support Super VOOC 2.0 65W charging? I was wondering as X2 doesn't have wireless charging so I thought that magnetic cable is just as good.

I want to buy Koolance QD3's but I don't know if I need fittings with those and what kind of male and female ones I need to buy for 9.5mm/15.9mm tubing? Thanks in advance! Wanting to buy it in the UK. I need to have those on 4 tubes.

I won't lie, Ryzen is doing it at the moment. I bought 10980XE (8 months ago) for a decent price and it competes with the 5950X. Similar in price now, I wouldn't see much of a difference between these two so I'm okay for now. However, in the future my next CPU will be Ryzen.

I wanted original EKWB ones but they have been discontinued. Any suggestions? I don't want algae in my loop so nothing aluminium or nickel plated.

I might do that. Tape sand paper to my desk and apply water and gently sand it in figure of 8.

Would you say I should lap it myself? Not too hard following a tutorial. I don't get huge core deltas currently btw, but I'd love to drop extra 3C or so. It would put my temps in very comfy range.

Is this worth it? I have the Magnitude 2066 block and 10980XE I would like to shave off at least 3C from stuff. If so, what should I use to lap the CPU and CPU block? Thanks!

Good enough answer, helps a lot. Thanks a bunch! XE 480 from EK almost tops the charts usually so good enough for me. Thanks.

I was just wondering for the sake of me knowing rather what my purposes are. This post is only for my information only. I was only curious why BlackIce 420mm rad same thickness as EKWB one is rated at 1800W and EKWB one is 957W or 1190W or so whilist EK one is bigger. Just wanted to see if faster RPM = better W dissipation and if it can be measured in meaningful way.

I was just wondering as some rads are rated for 1800W and they are 420mm. Any ideas?

Linus reviewed it and it's not a scam.

Thanks brother! Much appreciated!

Are these compatible? I'm looking around the web and it's hard to believe it won't fit it. Or P3 which I prefer.

I might go with 2x STRIXes. I always went for Founders but that 3x 8 pin and 480W max power usage or so is tempting. Power target is also probably lifted higher too.
