Installed a new CPU fan on my 4770k. Prime95 running for about 20 minutes didn't get above 75c. Went ahead and turned up the fan speed in BIOS. Playing a game, system hard resets, now won't post but fans spin. Think I ESD'd the board installing it? Would you normally get fans spinning with a dead CPU? Video card gets power, fans spin, but USB/PS2 devices don't turn on.

Did all that. It's not RAM, it's not video card, USB devices won't power. Reset CMOS, manually removed battery, cleared caps, still won't power on this morning. Since boards die a lot easier than processors do I went ahead and ordered a replacement board. If it's PSU I don't have another one handy to test, but it sounds like motherboard. Asus Z87 Plus, if that helps Edit: Ah, apparently the on-board power button glowing read means you're hosed, from some cursory YouTube searches. Oh well, parts are in tomorrow.

Unmature posted:My computer suddenly started doing this thing a couple weeks ago. Whenever I'm playing any media, whether it's Youtube, VLC, or just editing audio in Reaper, every time I move the mouse or do anything it'll stall for like half a second and sound all robot-y and crunchy for seemingly no reason. It's happening a ton and has been loving up a lot of what I do. Any idea what freakin cache I need to clear or whatever to make it not happen? i'd try opening sound control panel and disabling any outputs you aren't using

My motherboard's M.2 support list doesn't explicitly list larger capacity M.2 PCI-E Gen3 drives, but it hasn't been updated in a while: What are the odds it'll probably work anyway? Trying to hold out on a wholesale board swap before Zen7nm+ but I still want something faster than a SATA SSD. https://us.msi.com/Motherboard/support/Z170A-SLI-PLUS.html#support-hdd Wowporn posted:I was given an old almost functional laptop that I'm trying to get running well again, I replaced the hard drive and was able to get windows running but the next issue is it seems to run really hot even when not really doing anything so the fans are always really loud. Just browsing the internet right now it's saying the hard drive is at 50 degrees and the first two cores on the processor (i5 2410m @2.3ghz, so I think just a dual core with hyper threading??) are both around 60 and the fans sound like they're around 60% sometimes jumping up to 100% for a minute. It's one of two things: pet hair, or the heatsink is warped/loose. The second is unlikely if it ever worked fine before, but could happen with drops. If you can get the exact model in here, I/we can look for a teardown guide. DOOMocrat fucked around with this message at 19:44 on Apr 23, 2020 |

The only applications where I think you'd notice performance loss from a 120mm AIO getting soaked from heat would be code compiling and over 144hz gaming. If he's super duper interested in big numbers in those aspects he might want a 240 or 280 but otherwise he'll be fine.

cr0y posted:If my little homelab rack draws right around 105 watts under load, how do I calculate what size UPS I need to get about 15-20 minutes of runtime? APC has a calculator, but at 105 watts, just about anything over 500w/750va would be overkill and still in the lower end of pricing, with easier to find batteries, so do that.
