Guts Thread

i bet if corsair made motherboards you would buy one. all that corsair garbage.

pretty sad the 2070 is essentially a beefy overclocked 1080. a 1080 will go down in history as one of the longest lasting gpu's ever made. and to make it worse for nvidia they gave it 8gb of vram.

though seeing the 2060 / 1160ti or w.e it appears they learned their lesson by jewing them out with 6gb of vram.

I have a case with bad cable management and still did better than this.

I hope you realize you installed your cooler wrong. Air coolers have a small amount of liquid in the copper pipes for heat transfer and by having the tips downwards you're reducing the performance of the cooler.

why the fuck are you using the small noctua cooler in a c series case? it can support a d15. although i see what looks like geil ram (or maybe team) so im inclined to think you care more about looks than performance

So low-profile cpu coolers like that, what are the cons?

Doesn't cool as well as bigger coolers. What did you expect really? The cooler he's using is designed for smaller cases.

But for something like a locked intel chip or stock ryzen, how would it fare?

What Dell and Gpu is that? Thinking of buying a cheap used Optiplex and shoving something between a 750ti or 1050ti for a friend who lost his pc in a fire.

At that point just use a stock cooler, or something cheap like the M9i or 212. Sure a small cooler is fine, but why spend $50 for a low profile L12/s, when there's cheaper bigger coolers.

For the same reason a lot of posters put up inane questions on this board, the desired aesthetic

Do you like the small look, or the fan just facing the side panel? Because they make bigger coolers like the c14s that do just that.

still screws with the airflow

im pretty sure ive replied to you before but this case is uncanny for me: switch out the defaults to maglevs and the cooler to a d15 from that bequiet! and its basically my builds look when i took its photo. That said ive switched the gpu to a different model now and also added some extra noctua fans so not so much anymore

Pretty sure that's an OG Noctua C14 with a Noctua Chromax Fan, not Be Quiet.

oh it is too, chromax threw me off because it doesnt have the same 'quality' look of noctuas normal stuff

neat black and white, compact yet full ATX

1080 ti was the best card in the world in its time, also dem rams

Like, nigga, put your memory in the right configuration before I have an aneurysm.

Based G12 user.
Clean and simple.
Atrocious cable management.
Way too small for me, but clean.
Why even bother with the noctua fan?
Functional.
Very aesthetic, but I personally don't like the look of air coolers.
Gets the job done, I guess.

OP, the issue is those fucking fans. They ruin what otherwise would look pretty good. Please tell noctua to stop making fans that look like shit. I don't buy my computer parts for my PC to look good, but if you're going to spend the time and money into that kind of shit, you deserve better.

>muh airflow
it is literally a 2°C difference max, certain turbulent flow could even be beneficial, you can't possibly guess how the air inside moves. As long as the intake fans are more powerful than the outtake and your gpu fan intake has some space around it everything should be allright.

That gpu sag
You need a support for that man

did you ever consider that some mother boards have different configurations thatn others?

Or sound.
Intel stock usually has shit acoustics

Fucking gorgeous.

What's wrong with Noctua? It's either beige with brown or a puke inducing shade of gray with muddy looking white. Why can't they into attractive colors?

I ran Aida64 for 1hr and measured the last 60 seconds:

>original config = 65c
>suggested change = 63c

Honestly, most of the build was picked from parts on sale on Boxing Day. Corsair RGB whatever was the cheapest 2x8gb DDR4-3000 kit. I don't even have the LEDs on. The L12S was one of the only front-facing Noctua coolers that don't occlude the RAM. In retrospect, I should have just spent $20 more on a LP RAM kit and get another cooler.

you know you can raise the fan height yeah? a d15 with the fan raised over flarex for example just works. or you could forego a second fan

It's funny because the G12 gives me a 35-40c delta over the stock Windforce cooler yet popping an x52 on my CPU gives me literally 1c delta over this Noctua cooler 1/3rd the cost. CPU AIOs are scampilled but definitely yuge merit to the G12 in my opinion.

I might look into a C14 since a photo in this thread showed it shouldn't occlude DIMM slots. My last build (pic related) had a D14 and I loved that thing, but at a certain point the noise-cooling balance is killed adding more fans. At least a C14 would be quieter than the L12S just by fact it's 140mm versus 120mm.

What sorts of things do you use your VII for? Just gaming?

its hard to tell from the pic but its advised to have the radiator tubing above the pump. your front facing rad needs to be flipped so the tubes come out the top. an added benefit it would eliminate the gpu sag

90% of the time its sitting idle because i leave my pc on 24/7
I do a lot of CAD and CG as well as gaming so its a good fit

>original config = 65c

nice

it's mostly fine

two problems:

Is it possible to wirelessly turn your computer on?

Boot on LAN. Check your motherboard's UEFI/BIOS

what case be this

>>wirelessly

Yes
install a wake on lan/magic packet app on your phone or something

Recently repasted the Vega card and dropped some significant temps, also redid the RAM overclock with much tighter timings.

Not recommended unless you like challenges

Oh shit some youtube comment said the dude fried his computer with that, is it possible?

I tried using the ones I got with the PSU, the 24 pin ones worked perfectly but the PCI-E combs won't fit. What gives? Did Corsair not check their combs before bundling them with the PSU?

delete

I dunno? I suppose idiots can fry anything

The only way I can think of is if the header cables are internally connected to +5V or 0V and the motherboard headers have different polarity, thus creating a short? But since those aren't keyed, I'd think Silverstone took that into account when they designed that thing

Or he just plugged it into some wrong connector on the motherboard

NIce guts. Radeon cards are boxy aesthetic like an old Volvo

That's a lot of wham. Is there a server CPU hidden underneath that cooler?

>needing an hour to plug out the 6 or 8 pin cables for gpu regardless of how the cables are laid down
autist
also you would more likely need an hour to get your gpu out when all the cables are blocking the way

Here's the actual numbers:

No, it's an i5-3570K. I just like extra RAM for gaming.

Where is that GPU AIO cooler ?

Uh.
I assume you mean the rad
In which case, directly above it.

Is this true? I can just shave off 40 degrees from my GPU?

Yes turn off computer

What mobo and cpu?

Ryzen 1700X @ 3.8GHz in an Asus X370 Crosshair 6. 2x16GB DDR4-3200MHz CL14 RAM. I know, I know it's a bottleneck. I'm playing when waiting game for Ryzen 7nm before buying a New CPU and motherboard. If it's a flop, I'll get the 9900k or whatever Intel's new top dog is.
