  1. Very good review @RageSet I didn't know you was an RGB snob But the nice thing with most chassis you can remove the blingy bling or disable it. I'myself have an Corsair box (1000D) but prefer not to use any of the iCUE LINK ecosystem that follow Corsair products. I hate such type tech. All in all Corsairs boxes are built very well. So it seems this chassis follow same path as for Corsair's older pc chassis. Again, thanks for a very good review. Thumb up from me.
  2. A good review Mr. Fox. Yep, there is no point spend much more money than this on a PCIe 4.0 (5.0) M.2 ssd's. And you won't gain extra performance in gaming/normal work-flow if you go with the more expensive PCIe 5.0 ssd's. You only spend more for almost nothing. Keep up the good work
  3. Both patched, the one in OC.net thread ment for Kingpin and vanilla. The weird part. Switch to another vbios then try to boot up gain doesn't help. Black screen. Edit. To make it perfect. Can't boot on the second card with the bricked Kingpin in top PCIe slot. Had to take it out to be able to post, HaHa v5.218.0.1 patched should be the better for Maxwell. I mean I used that one for 980Ti Edit. Progress with the kp980x XOC vbios. Finally it got flashed.
  4. I tried a another nvflash tool meant to be better for Maxwell. And yep, succsessful,reboot and black screen, HaHa I though try flash the 1.3V vBios from above but changed mind (not sure what bios that is) and went for the Kingpin XOC vbios and black screen, LOOL The KPE_1.3v vbios above didn't match message Edit. It seems Maxwell cards is hated by all, HaHa
  5. The weid part... I got succsessful flash but when I run the cards afterwards after the troubleshooting it had same old vbios. (see my comment above) Edit.
  6. Thanks for the answer Did you try the non XOC vbios from @tictoc? And regarding nvflash version I mean I have one saved in the folder for the Zotac 980Ti I have flashed succsessfully. I just need to see if I find it. I mean its better use a flashtool made around the gen graphics cards release date. Or right afterwards. I have used newer nvflash versions on older card but with no succsess if I remeber correct.. But I'm the scond one with black screen after flash so Maybe there is something wrong with the vbios compared to mb sBios.
  7. Hi. I just got the 980 Classified Kingpin card. Flashed the XOC vbios found here on oc.net in the folder EVGA 980 CLASSIFIED K|NGP|N EDITION TOOLS And as you, the flash went wrong. As usual I disabled the driver in device manager. Made a folder as C:/kingpin and put in the XOC bios and put in the nvflash files. Then run CMD as adm.... cd c:\kingpin Next... nvflash -6 kp980x.rom Y for everything and got confirmed Update succsessful then the reboot message. I rebooted and got a nice black screen I installed a smaller card in second slot. Booted up and looked into GPU-Z and found that the GTX980 still there but with the same old stock vbios. Went into device manager and enabled the Kingpin card. Then shut down the machine. Turned of the on/off switch and the AC plug. Swapped the HDMI cable over to the 980 kingpin and booted up again. There I also got confirmed that the Kingpin card worked but with same old vBios. Hmmmm Is there something wrong with that XOC vbios for 980 Kingpin? And is the nvflash version working as it should (from the folder I mentioned above). I see you bricked the Kingpin card and never was able to boot up in Windows again. Anoter question... Maybe I need protect off? But nothing in the guide in the OC.net thread EVGA Classified & K|NGP|N Owner's Club say you need the command nvflash --protectoff. But I mean it's not needed. 2n try maybe ore like this...? C:/kingpin with the XOC bios and the nvflash files. Run CMD as adm.... cd c:\kingpin Next... nvflash --protectoff then Enter Next... nvflash -6 kp980x.rom then Enter And is it better to shut down instead for reboot? Shut down and then turn of the on/off switch and AC cable. Then connect power and boot up again? And is the two Kingpin vbios versions from @tictoc post above equal bugged and will it still brick the card? Last question. What is the prefered nvflash version for this card. I thank you all for all answers
  8. What a e-waste! Damn the customers that let them continue with this. It doesn't matter if its their laptops or desktops. Everything that being thrown out from their factories is e-waste
  9. Dell will turn this mess it into something good and say it will reduce the E-waste. They will promote this new proprietary solution (this new scam), is better than use soldered on memory chips. That you will struggle obtain replacement parts for failing HW after the warranty expiration (due not paying their Premium extended support) doesn't matter for them. Yep, people can't buy spare parts from Dell for their computers if the obligatory warranty have expired. Dell's poilicy at it's best. In short... Throw your computer in the dust bin (e-waste) if it has minor failes and instead visit Dell sale for a purchase of new computer/lap-joke. The ugly truth.... Yep, new designed/engineered proprietary HW parts is bad for the consumers. And bad for the environment.
  10. Dell is the bellwether in tech industri for (windows computers). The other OEMs will follow afterwards. Proprietary design is their trademark. Enjoy the beauty... Dell proprietary (non-standard) ATX design - Proprietary parts in modern dell desktops
