I purchased my 6700k from newegg on friday and it shipped out today. I should be receiving it tomorrow!! I'm excited to see what it will be able to do for an OC.
I'm using a modular one now with 4 hdd's but am seriously thinking about going full modular and a little shorter so that it fits and cleans up the cable mess a lot. This case doesn't really have any room to route or store cables in a decent way. Pretty much only above the PSU and even then if...
I'm sure they could be a lot better if I cleaned up the airflow a bit.
CPU is 37c idle, 70c full load (prime 95)
GPU is 45c idle, 80c full load (furmark)
Greetings, I currently own and use a Corsair H50, which does a pretty good job at keeping my i7-870 at bay. I recently came into owning a Noctua NH-D14 and was wondering which one would you guys recommend using.
Thanks!
This board has never been repaired, but this model is know to run hot and is probably the cause of the yellowing on the solder points. The jack is also original and has never been removed. I have 2 of these laptops and they both run very hot like 50c idle even after I replaced the TIM with AS5...
It wasn't board flex due to me not touching the board anywhere other than with the voltmeter and I didn't put enough pressure on it to cause flex, I touched the side of the part not the top or the point at which it solders to the board.
Greetings, I should state that I have been a technician for 6 years now and have a good knowledge base for repair. Onto the issue! I have a Dell Inspiron M5030 laptop that has an odd intermittent short. Some history, last week the computer would not draw power from the ac adapter (ac adapter...

Couple things to do. Take psu out and use a flash light to see if you see anything. I wouldn't recommend opening one to someone not familiar with them. You can also plug it and listen for the sound/smoke/smell. If nothing there try to test if it powers on with it unplugged from the wall use a...
I am running 4x2gb. I went ahead and ordered a hyper 212+ since it was $20 shipped new and I will see how that behaves. I may also end up ordering a Thermalright true spirit 120 if I don't like how the hyper is performing.
I'm pretty sure I have good air flow. My GPU runs fantastic IMO gtx 560 ti 448 at 975mhz core and 2100mhz mem for 60c load. My load temps on my i7-870 stock is like 55c which is also decent but I feel it is a limitation to the performance of a 3 year old H50.
