Question Western Digital PC SN730 NVMe SSD Reviews?

Found a Sn730 in my new laptop and care less about performance than power consumption. At first I thought the SN730 would have a similar power profile than the SN750 considering that the SN730 is supposedly an OEM version of the SN750 but thats farthest from the case. I even purchased just now...

Totally lost....Booting Windows 10 out of two SSD's (sm961) in RAID0

Hi to the Op, I just went through what you went through but had success in the end after a very long day of trying to get it to work. Let me just start by saying I have a Z170-WS board and tried to raid two SM961 M.2 drives together. First thing you need to be aware of is if you clone one drive...

Any DP to HDMI 2.0 Adapters yet? 4k @ 60hz

I guess its all about using the right adapter. Funny thing is that the guys on another nameless forum told me it wouldn't work because I didn't have a LSPCon chip and that the specs for the motherboard said the displayport can put out max 4096x2304@24Hz, 3840x2160@60Hz resolutions according to...

Any DP to HDMI 2.0 Adapters yet? 4k @ 60hz

Hi guys, A little confused if this will work for me. I have a Z270M Mortar and MSI went cheap with hdmi 1.4 but not sure if I have the required 1.2 version on my displayport. How can I check if its 1.2? Also as I have a 7600K cpu would HDCP 2.2 content play through the adapter? I ran the...

Advice needed, does your case have a slim front opening?

I had a similar problem with not enough airflow inside my htpc matx case. Turned out that cooler wasnt making full contact on the cpu thermal heat spreader and that the Heatsink was a budget cooler. If I was you double check your mounting and be more concerned about how much air you air exhausting.

Are we there yet? Anybody still in doubt that a Trump Presidency is a national disaster?

This thread will probably get locked soon but until then I think Trump is a reflex action to having a liberal zealot in the White House and the naysayers are being proven wrong every day. Better than having a dishonest deceitful politician in the Oval Office and I hope Trump comes through and...

Difference is I doubt Trump would invest in another Solindra. Obama did create jobs fwiw but they all were low pay suck jobs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi, Its been a year since I started this thread and got to tell you I never got it off the ground. Too afraid of that cavitation issue. Anyhow since then I picked up a second gpu and ready to get this off of the back burner. I found out that Koolance makes a pump speed controller which I'm going...

Do I need another pump?

Well it's going to be a basic loop, three rads, cpu block, hopefully mosfets if there's a compatible block, then a single gpu. Love to go Sli but costs would be too high. Thanks Ps: still good idea run just 1/2 inch to the pump from res and leave rest at 7/16??

Well how about running 1/2" tube from res to pump and leave the 7/16 everwhere else? Shouldn't cost much to just buy two compression fittings and ten inches of 1/2 inch tube? Anyhow that pmp 500 should be able to handle two titans or 980 ti's in sli if it ever happened? For now sticking with...

I just have seen certain people on the net use more than one pump. As far as cavitation goes I never heard of that. I have already spent a lot of money on compression fittings so I can't just go get 1/2 inch tubing. I wish I know before hand. Maybe I could lessen the volts to the pump? Is it...

That may be true but there are probably 3-4 reasons why it doesn't work on x58: 1. Not supported by the chipset due to missing features Maybe but then why are there reports of other 5 series chipsets working? 2. Rom or driver level check for x58 and forced off...

Seems like that on off switch is by a device to device alternate id basis. I delved into the intel data sheet for the x58 and c200 chipsets and the registers that hold the device type and allow alternate Id broadcast have the identical offset address and default values. So there's something else...

I fired up Ubuntu and ran lspci to try to understand what my alternate device id might be on my X58. Lspci reports for the raid controller [8086:2822] with a subsys of [8086:3A20]. The latter I presume is the alt id BUT according to Intel's spec update document thats the code for the Non-AHCI...
