Thanks musicfan. It doesn't look like metal flakes to me. Here's a picture:

Well my PC bluescreened again during the scan, so I disconnected both mechanical drives and the bootup lag was gone. I tried plugging them back in 1 at a time, but the lag happened regardless of...

Thanks. Yeah, I have the Acetal+EN version of all the blocks. I thought that this version was supposed to eliminate the flaking? I guess I was wrong. That said it's a pretty small amount. Should I be...

Thanks for the advice. I ran HD Tune's error scan on my SSD raid array and it didn't detect any bad blocks, but my PC bluescreened when I was scanning my mechanical drives. This PC never bluescreens...

Hello all,

I have a Rampage IV Extreme running on BIOS 3101, and I have an issue when rebooting.

For roughly 20 seconds I get a black screen with nothing but a cursor blinking in the upper left...

Necroing my thread to post about two concerns I have. First, this loop has been running almost 24/7 since I built it and in the past few days it's started misbehaving slightly. About once an hour or...

I think mine was around 2k, maybe a bit more. Definitely surprised me since it was my first build. When I was brainstorming I was thinking it wouldn't cost more than $500-1000.

They do. I'm using the Triple Parallel Bridge with 3 GTX680s.

I have to say... this was a pain in the ass, but it was worth it. I've got my 3930k at 4.8ghz and temps don't go above 60c during Prime95. GPUs max out at 41c with a modest overclock of +100/+300....

Well, I got the loop rebuilt, and it's fully bled and I don't see any leaks; however, I do hear something. Sort of like air bubbles/fizzing or air escaping a tight space and creating bubbles. I've...

Here are the pics: Most of the stuff is in pic 1... pic 2 is the other side of the case and only has the second radiator in the loop.

I know there are radiators with ports on both sides, such as the Alphacool UT60. Could the top ports of those be used for bleeding? You'd think that radiators would be easier to bleed since it seems...

Yikes. In all my research I didn't come across this. That probably is the cause of my leaks, because i tried to tighten everything as much as possible (within reason). I don't know why I assumed that...

Thanks for the reply. I'll post pics when I get home... hopefully you or someone can provide some advice for bleeding my loop once you see it.

One more thing. When the pump is off, the reservoir is filled to the top, but when the pump is going the reservoir goes down to about half full which creates a waterfall, which I would assume just...

Soooo I spent all day (and night) yesterday building my loop... it was a nightmare to say the least. I think I made a mistake going with compression fittings instead of barbs. How the heck do people...

After building my new PC there is no more popping/skipping, so I guess it was an issue with my old motherboard. Glad it wasn't the DAC.

Hello,

I've installed 14 GT AP-15s in my CaseLabs T10 case, and while they are relatively quiet, they have a bit of a higher pitch to their sound quality than I'm used to, and it's annoying me....

There's an announcement from Intel at 9am PST.

Well, I've been making an effort to switch over to Chrome. I know it's faster and has better image rendering, but certain aspects of its UI are deal-killers for me. I've also noticed that it causes...

So I've got an interesting problem, and this is probably a long-shot as it's a pretty specific issue. I've got a CEntrance DACmini CX external DAC/amp (using USB input), and the playback is perfect...

I decided I didn't want to wait. I ordered 3 2gb 680s. I'll replace them when having only 2gb of vram becomes an issue.

Well the X2 is basically 2 pumps (with a PWM controller), right?

Thanks for the input. I thought I had e-mail alerts turned on for this thread, but I guess not!

Adding the 3rd radiator is no big deal as I said, but now I'm a little concerned about flow. Will a...

Alright, you've talked me into it. Never done anything like this, so wish me luck!
