  1. Good because I'm looking at where the hell on my MOBO and I'm like hmmn would make a good CLR CMOS jumper ?
  2. Where would that plug into and what software would read it? Also:
  3. Actually that was an LED light I was messing around with. I don't have any temp probes, but if you link me to one I will get one l'll check that out about the SATA. It's something I noticed when we were folding last week that the last slot was disabled by my 2nd NVMe drive. I am looking at fabbing a rubber dampener. I just got my first pump clamp in place. It was tricky getting the holes drilled just right so I'm moving as slow as a snail. Interestingly enough I had randomly chose metric screws for all my aluminum angle stuff, and my M4 screws are exactly the same thread as the ones that came with the pump, just a bit longer, so I might end up using mine.
  4. Yeah it's going to mostly pull air from the sides
  5. Yeah it's going to mostly pull air from the sides
  6. In that direction yes, but I'm making a gap between the top of the case and the filter/fans. I am going to leave extra tubing so I can set the rad box aside to access my case. Edit: Kids love bugging me

    new case

    Yeah good boards usually have them. This is a $75 board lol.
  8. Well really I loosened the test procedure up to pretty much: "Do what you want with it, and follow my guidelines if you want to. Use my data template if you want to or use your own. Please don't break it" Ironically the guy I picked for Canadian team lead is a bit more strict on rules for his team, but that's ok with me. IceGiant is letting us run this however we please. They are just happy for any free publicity. It would really be a lot of work for someone who needs to dismount hard tube water cooling. Maybe we can time your slot with your Threadripper before it goes under water. Depending on where on the list, it could be weeks or months since a person generally wants to spend a week playing with it, then it takes a week to ship to the next person, ect. Kate from IG told me that internal tests showed that it handled well over 500W of heat and it's estimated that it could handle 900W. We really need someone to get one of the new 280W TR Pros and see how it cooks.

    There I put a button on it for you. I'll even mount it to the frame after Rachel is done painting RIP $9 Thermaltake case.
  10. Nah. What happened was I was inquiring via email about the cooler and ended up talking my way into a free product sample. Then I convinced them to let me share it with my forum buds. So if anyone wants to play around with it, let me know. We have about 20 people in queue but I bump you up to the top if you have hot asf hardware to test. IceGiant loves the idea so they are also going to send us all t-shirts. They are a tiny start-up company, just a married couple and no other employees. They have been very cool about this and sent us bulk Kryonaut, Kimwipes, Articlean kit, thermocouple and even got a sample for Canada.
  11. It's designed for Threadripper really. I was just the one who coordinated the sample so I got first dibs and tested my 3600 since I couldn't obtain anything due to shortages, and I wasn't about to overpay. If you are interested in playing around with it, send me a P.M. and I'll get you in the queue.
  12. It has occurred to me that I should get grills for these fans. I have some mismatched grills from over the years but I would prefer matching ones, or one giant 1080 grill to protect the intake side of the blades. Otherwise they worked fine when I tested them in PST 3x3 mode as @Avacado recommended. Edit: Shoot I'll kill 2 birds with 1 stone and get magnetic dust filter. Looks like I will have to get 3x360x120 https://www.amazon.com/Filter-4-72inch-Computer-Magnetic-2-Pack/dp/B08MPT5BSP If someone has a better idea let me know
  13. Is that this one? There's a warning on the bottom for aluminum. https://mayhems.store/may_b2c/mayhems-pastel-v2-uv-white-opaque-premixed-coolant-1-litre.html I'll just get the OCTO. About to go eat.
  14. Can you link me to that pastel white you aren't using? I want to see if it is compatible with aluminum. It might look good since the blocks have RGB built into them.
  15. I'm curious if you have any cheap DDR4 in that parts bin before I order some. I see you keep lots of coolant mixes. Do you find that stuff worthwhile or is it just for looks? I'm asking because I'm also doing an ultra-cheap aluminum loop with some parts that might arrive in the next few months directly from China. It should be fun to test the near $1000 copper loop vs the ~$50 aluminum loop
  16. That was an awesome video. Going to show Michele. Time to go shopping on your parts bins. I'll take one of those, one of those there, and yes that one too. P.M. whatever I need to pay for that Octo, and I have a couple more questions as well.
  17. Yeah I looked up specs on both and ofc I want the one with all the fancy sensors.
  18. Well whatever you spent and $10 to ship then?

    He's pretty good really. He probably knows more than 99% of the staff at Tom's Hardware. His big ass is only 14. But he's over 200lbs 6'2 already
