    Hotspot over 114°C

    How are your fans behaving? If you haven't already, eliminate your fan profile and crank them up to maximum speed and see what that does. Are you ocing? If so, step everything back down to stock. You can also try cleaning everything off of the heatsink and doing the flashlight test to see if...

    Which consoles do you, or did you own?

    A PlayStation when it came out. It died... bought another. It died. Bought another and yes of course it too died. Friends and I came across a mod online to replace the... don't remember(maybe the rom?)that brought them back to life for 8 or 9 months. Bought a PC and didn't touch another...

    Who else likes likes a clean, minimalist PC build?

    I enjoy both. My main rig is lit up completely blue enough to see the components and loop. My backup rig is blacked out with green fluid behind a darkened window. No lights other than the water temp display on the reservoir. Cable management is no longer a priority. As long as the door closes...

    Noctua entering the AIO business

    That review looks really solid. But if they follow their past timelines for Chromax gear it'll be another year before those finally get released. They love leaving money on the table for some reason.

    Koolance QD3 fittings stuck open

    Soak them in CLR(completely submerged) for 5 to 10 minutes. If that doesn't clean the crud out of them nothing will.

    My first AMD Graphics Card since the R9 290X - My Gigabyte RX 9070 XT Gaming OC experience

    From what I remember the biggest issue was the thermal gel they used vs traditional thermal paste or pads on the core, vrms and memory. It would literally migrate away from and slide off of the components causing all kinds of issues. This was addressed by GB after much ado from users several...

    Double-check my attempts to get this thing to POST? (MSI PRO B760-P WIFI DDR4)

    Sounds like that MB is toast. I beat my head against an Asrock MB last year that refused to boot with similar failure/testing. Until I returned it... the replacement worked on first boot.

    Dislodging debris from inside a radiator

    Try running a filter for a few days is all I can think of. The type of filter would depend on what you have on hand and how small the debris is.

    Best upgrade from GTX 1070 in a 14th gen i3 desktop?

    Speaking of PSU...are you certain it's the GPU that's failing?

    Any chance I could clean this little bit of algae residue with some kind of cleaning solution in the loop?

    If it's just an allergy I'd say chicken noodle soup it and call it a day! Aaahaha, I kill myself 😂 Seriously tho, if you want it to be gone for good then yep, disassembly is the only sure fire way to get it and the loop clean. If you only want it to look good for a minute trying one of the many...

    The Z Build(s) 3.0 - Go Big and/or Go Home

    I hate to say that is par for the course with MSI, they can be very slow at releasing timely bios updates. It can be aggravatingly slow. Fingers crossed for you.
