    Question What replaces the Corsair HX750 80+ Platinum modular PSU?

    Thanks, that's handy! Was looking at the RMx line as closest available relative to the HX. Will take a look at the other highly related ones, too.

    Question What replaces the Corsair HX750 80+ Platinum modular PSU?

    I've been using Corsair PSUs for over a decade as they've been solid in every build I've done. I am prepping a new build and noticed the HX750, which was my most recent Corsair PSU purchase in late 2021, is no longer available, but looking at Corsair's website, I don't see what's replaced it. It...

    News Black Friday 2022

    I remember when Dell monitor sales would be events and would sell out in minutes or hours. Now, most of their stuff listed for BF sale is just sitting there. Maybe they'll do better discounts on Cyber Monday or for Christmas. :sleeping: https://deals.dell.com/en-us/category/monitors-deals

    News Black Friday 2022

    I'd like to snag a Dell AW3821DW display if it goes on a big sale again as it has in previous years. Is it best to buy it from Dell or are they terrible now? I see a lot of dislike for their customer service from folks who bought the fancy new 34" OLED monitor when it came to getting a...

    Question RTX 4000/RX 7000 price speculation thread

    This is interesting and I wonder if it will induce NVidia to do more to separate the mining and gaming function of their future GPUs or at least be forced to report more honestly on how they (imho) disenfranchised gamers for the sake of miners for a few years...

    Question WD Red Pro 16TB and 18TB drives have half the cache of lower models?

    Mostly just trying to understand if it's accurate. Thanks!

    Question WD Red Pro 16TB and 18TB drives have half the cache of lower models?

    I was looking at the Amazon page for the Red Pros and noticed the descriptions show the 14TB drive has 512MB cache while the 16TB and 18TB drives have 256MB cache. If that's accurate, is there a reason they halved the cache?

    Discussion Z690 is becoming a botch launch...

    I unfortunately paid extra to acquire my DDR5 though so far I'm not regretting it. z690 is more stable than z590 was for me.

    Question JayzTwoCents - Z690 boards burning up?

    fwiw, my Asus z590 E-Gaming board was nothing but problems and my z690 Maximus Hero has been flawless. Thankfully mine appears to be from a different production run, so unless they expand the recall beyond MA, MB, MC, it should be okay. The part number on mine is also slightly different, with a...

    Question Anyone know why ROG Maximus z690 Hero AI Suite 3 is missing the FanXpert4 and EZ Update utilities?

    Seems strange to lack fan control and BIOS update utilities. Yes, I'll update the BIOS via a USB drive with the BIOS file on it, but the Fan Xpert 4 being absent seems awful strange. Is it just because it's a new generation board and they have to update that tool to work with the latest generation?

    Question Who makes the best quality computer cases?

    I've been buying Fractal Design cases for the last few builds and overall they're good, however my most recent purchase of a Meshify 2 Compact was a little disappointing where under the black coating, there's definitely a light coat of rust on metal panels, revealed when screwing things in if...

    Question How many of these power connections are needed for a regular single CPU, single GPU rig?

    Thank you both. The PSU is a Seasonic Focus PX-750, fully modular. It offers a second PSU to CPU 8-pin cable so I could conceivably connect both 8-pin CPU connectors (trying to physically get both connected will be... interesting, to say the least due to tight working spaces near the top of the...

    Question How many of these power connections are needed for a regular single CPU, single GPU rig?

    I know the big 24-pin molex and usually one 8-pin CPU connector are required. This board (z690 Hero) also has a second 8-pin CPU connector (ATX_12V_2) and an 6-pin "extra PCI-E x16" power connector (PD_12V_PWR), which is says helps PCI-E go from 27w to 60w. I have never heard of this before or...

    Question DDR5 Availability

    Is there a news site that monitors DDR production and reports when new batches have been produced and shipped to resellers? Would be nice to have a sense for how long the wait is going to be.

    Question DDR5 Availability

    The "problem" is rather apparent for anyone that already had a DDR5-based z690 motherboard ordered before the DDR5 availability turned out to be a mirage.

    Question DDR5 Availability

    Annnd the last DDR5 I was watching with an eagle eye just changed from ETA this week to simply Out of Stock so guess they're not actually getting that model either. Lovely.

    Question DDR5 Availability

    NewEgg just removed a bunch of DDR5 from the ability to set an Auto-Notify, and has added language to some that they are uncertain if/when it might be restocked. Further evidence DDR5 inventory/stock is going to be brutal for the foreseeable future.

    Question WD SN850

    Performance is generally commensurate between Samsung and WD, the primary factor I would consider is write endurance. They seem similar in that regard as well, from what I recall when I researched them. So then I would look to quality. Are 980 Pros or SN850s having more quality issues than the...

    Question What's a good curved monitor for gaming and getting work done?

    34" widescreen gives me enough space for two 1600x1200 program windows side by side. Anything much smaller, I don't think is realistic for having two programs side by side and better off having two separate monitors (Two 22-24" displays, for example.)

    Question Dual-Ranked DDR5-4800 Modules

    I did check those, and Corsair does sell direct but had no stock and G.Skill just offers a list of resellers to choose from. No stock. DDR5 is basically non-existent.

    Question Why does the power limit drop after 2 hours on Asus 3080 TUF OC?

    After it drops, what does it take to bring it back up to full power? Closing and re-opening the application in focus? Logging out and back into Windows? Restarting/rebooting the computer?

    Question Dual-Ranked DDR5-4800 Modules

    Any word on when DDR5 will come (back?) into stock? G.Skill or Corsair, preferably. Been watching NewEgg and Amazon like a hawk, never saw them in stock, so either they haven't gotten inventory yet or they were gone in a flash before most folks had a chance to spot them.

    Question Can the Asus Rog Strix z690 E-Gaming or Rog Maximus Z690 Hero fit the NH-U12S heatsink?

    Question Can the Asus Rog Strix z690 E-Gaming or Rog Maximus Z690 Hero fit the NH-U12S heatsink?

    Wondering if all the included cooling and visual design "stuff" that's all over the board and around the CPU socket will interfere with installing an NH-U12S on the CPU, or if there's enough clearance. For reference: Noctua HSF: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C9EYVGY/ Hero...

    Question Alder Lake - Official Thread

    Once Ethereum goes Proof of Stake, that may take away a significant portion of mining demand for GPUs, though there's always some new meme coin that could take up the slack. Perhaps only when the crypto space cools off will supply and demand rebalance in our favor.

    Question M.2 storage access lag on Z590 Asus RoG Strix E-Gaming mobo

    Update: Replaced 980Pro with a 970 Evo Plus, cloning the old OS drive, so now there are matching 970 Evo Plus M.2 drives in the system as the only storage. Just eliminating possibilities like the driver discrepancy between the 980Pro which uses MS Windows driver vs the 970s that run Samsung's...

    Question M.2 storage access lag on Z590 Asus RoG Strix E-Gaming mobo

    Update: Same crap still happens, just a little less frequently. Can't get the folder contents to list, it just keeps thinking and the green bar progresses across the address bar in Windows Explorer forever. Most likely SSD cache or driver related nonsense. Samsung really needs to drop a proper...

    Question M.2 storage access lag on Z590 Asus RoG Strix E-Gaming mobo

    Update: I think I fixed it by swapping the RAM. I was on Corsair 2x16GB CMK32GX4M2E3200C16 which would only run in SPD setting. I just replaced that with Corsair 2x16GB CMK32GX4M2D3600C18 which runs XMP 2 settings. Everything is much snappier. Nothing feels lethargic. Amazing what a slight...

    Question M.2 storage access lag on Z590 Asus RoG Strix E-Gaming mobo

    I think I've narrowed it down to a memory issue. I'm seeing all sorts of lag loading/displaying things, whether embedded videos on webpages or Windows Explorer listing contents or status of drives/folders, when as little as 12GB of the 32GB is in use. I will have to run a MemTest and also try...

    Question M.2 storage access lag on Z590 Asus RoG Strix E-Gaming mobo
