Thanks for your replies guys, I have XSPC 14mm fittings and tube at the moment. I will have a look and see how they fit.

Hi all, I have 14mm XSPC hard tube fittings and have been using the XSPC 14/10 hard tube with these fittings. Are all 14mm tubes the same and work with any 14mm fitting? I am looking at rebuilding my system with the Corsair 14mm satin tube. Thanks

Be Quiet Dark Base cases can be reconfigured.

I would be quite happy with 10-15C over ambient, I get more like 20C, I will be turning my fans up a bit to bring that down a little. my coolant temp sits at around 40C so that is the equilibrium point for my system with the fans as they are, I have 3x 360 rads, they are just the cheap magicool...

It looks like a chemical reaction possibly from the plating process that has leached out and damaged the plastic top. I would take it apart and give it a good clean to make sure that no particles of nickel are coming off to damage the pump and check that the plastic hasn't swelled. If it...

Personally I would go for a Z590 Vision G or Elite AX but would go for the 11700K and put the money from the CPU and mobo into a better GPU like the 3090. It depends what you are doing with the machine, I think the 11700K will be so close to the 11900K that it wont be worth bothering with the...

Hi all, I am looking at getting some cheap ish speakers to go in my console gaming room that are better than the ones in my LG TV, not hard I know. I was looking the Edifier R1280DB in white they don't seem to be a bad price and have an optical input. I dont want to pay too much for them...

maybe post some pictures of how you have everything connected, that might help. there is a bit of fun to be had getting everything connected and setup with the corsair stuff, I have 10 LL fans in my system.

This has happened every time I have removed my cooler, I gently pry or slide the CPU off the cooler then reinstall it in the motherboard, just be carful not to bend the pins.

Do you have a spare HDD you can put an install of windows on just to eliminate a software issue? I would then remove and refit everything, fire up and run some diagnostics, look at temps and voltages of as much as you can while running a benchmark. If the problem persists then start an RMA...

I have installed it, there is a little bit of sag, i might try and sort it when i put the water block on it.

This is my Sapphire 6800 XT Nitro+

Can you post any pics you have of the card with its waterblock?

I was playing control using my 6800 xt at 3440x1440 and I noticed the vram was at 12gb. on the face of it seems that 10gb isn't enough for the resolutions that these cards are aimed at.

Great looking system by the way. I was using EK as the baseline because that is a block manufacturer I have used before and therefore I know what they are like. I have a Corsair CPU block and XSPC fittings and tube. I quite like the look of the Alphacool block, I will get hold of one when they...

I am interested in the quality of materials and build when compared to the EK.

Hi all, Has anyone used an alphacool eisblock aurora? I got a 6800 XT Nitro+ and it seems like they are the only company who make a block for it. I have always used EK blocks in the past. Thanks

I managed to get a 6800xt Nitro+ and just sold my Vega 68 for £370 which is £150 more than I was expecting. The 6800xt I would have expected it to be £100 more than the reference so £700 and the inflated price I paid was £850. I ended up paying about the same as I expected 700-220=480...

those 6800 xt prices don't look good :(

I think that being able to sell all your stock of a product at an inflated price, would make any company extremely happy!!!
