    Either this or contact support and they might just send you a replacement fan. Arctic support is pretty good. I had one of the LF2 AIOs that got affected by the rubber seal degrading and they gave me the option for me to either send it in for replacement or get a kit to fix it myself. I opted...

    I just realized that I haven't built an AM5 system, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's on be default. Especially on the Intel side of things since their GPUs pretty much require it.

    @Burren Make sure you have resizable bar support enabled for your GPU. Nvidia control panel > Help > System Information and make sure Resizable BAR says Yes. If no, you need to enable it in your bios. How was building in the Flux Pro? Ever since I saw this shown off at Computex, I've been...

    My Gigabyte 4080 Super is the first one I've bought that has built in support. You replace the middle and bottom right motherboard screws with standoffs for it to attach to. Works pretty well and isn't a massive pain in the ass if you need to remove the card.

    Yes, but you're still restricting the airflow. I doubt many GPU fans have enough static pressure to not be impacted by that.

    Until that one time it actually is. Just spent a week working on a PC I built for a friend a few years ago. It would run fine after booting cold, but as soon as you told it to restart or boot it warm, it would just hang on a black screen with the GPU error light on the mobo lighting up. Tested...

    Even with that extra fan mount, I suspect vertical GPU will be worse. You're still shoving the GPU pretty close to the glass and restricting the airflow from the GPU fans. Now if it had mesh there instead of glass, that's a different story.

    Good sir, you have landed on the wrong side of the fence. You want to be on this side. That being said, strip out every component you can and see if the issues persist. Wouldn't hurt to try booting from a linux USB to rule out anything software wise.

    It was the thickness, not the length that got you with the Enthoo. Just trying to avoid that again. Also, Tech Jesus is above reproach.

    If you want to top mount the radiator, cancel that and order the Flux Pro. It can take 420mm radiators with a total thickness of 70 mm up top and the Arctic LF3 comes in at 67.5 mm.

    Unless you want keep the top cover off, my previous suggestion won't work for that case. Plus mounting a 420 to the front is not an option at all.

    I just went back and took a look at your part list again. Did you go with the Adata case or the Lian Li? I was actually basing my suggestions on the Adata. Didn't realize the case changed when MsQueen plugged it in to pcpartpicker.

    Looked at a couple videos of builds in that case and they all seem to have much more clearance with a top radiator. Not a fan of the top glass, that's going to severely restrict airflow.

    Yep, leaving it as it is pre assembled is just the easiest way to go. If you want to keep the fans in a pull configuration you can see if there's enough space to fit it above the bracket and mount the fans below. This is one of the reasons I prefer bigass cases. I want plenty of room for...

    Desktop Computers

    Looking at the manual for your case, if you want to keep the top mount radiator, take the fans off it and mount them to the top of the bracket with airflow pushing through the radiator. Arctic radiators are on the thicker side, so you probably can't put the radiator above the mounting bracket...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    The 2 sticks vs 4 sticks has to do with the memory topology of the mobo. I remember when I did my 5800X build, there was a google doc going around with all the available mobos and what topologies. Daisy chain is cheaper to make and and by far the most common. It performs best with 2 sticks...

    Stellar Blade (April 26th, PS5)

    Unlikely unless a Denuvoless build leaks. There were only a few people who were able to crack the older versions and I've yet to see anyone crack the current versions. Sometimes devs do implement it in a way that it can be bypassed instead of cracked, though.
