The ninja5 is 155mm high and the NR200 fits coolers up to 155mm high Worst case scenario I'll get 1mm shorter standoffs -

ShadySocks replied to BadGuyNick's topic in New Builds and Planning
I'd get a used RX470 for a nice bump Edit: and please get an SSD -

also how is it possible that people are getting current gen GPU/CPUs by waiting for a bot then doing it manually? Isnt that way slower than just a bot?

It depends on the monitor, like how not all 4k monitors are equal.

Hi, I want to buy a stylus for my iPad Air 2, but online it is difficult to determine which stylus to buy as they all have different claims and some say they won't be compatible etc. For example, some say they don't have palm rejection but the palm rejection works fine for this garbage rubber dome stylus I got for free somewhere. Id rather not spend more than $30, preferably under $20. I am not sure if I want an active stylus or not, the only thing I really want is to use the back of the stylus to erase in onenote but I fear that's not possible. Thanks

Depends on budget

This sounds like a video card issue to me. On my old laptop, I would have the same problem (minus losing internet on my phone) and I fixed it by disabling the discrete graphics. Have you tried running stress tests? Usually you can find which component is failing by stress testing them individually. For now, I would try underclocking your video card. This will relieve some stress on it, so it may be less likely to fail.

Refresh rate drop when running additional screen
ShadySocks replied to PeterScream's topic in Graphics Cards
You made sure to set the mode of the last screen to 144hz? It might have defaulted to 60hz,
