Re: How to overclock AMD cpu?

Also, in BIOS I set the CPU fan to automatic, but I don't know how to set FAN speed.
There are 9 levels of it, currently it is on level 6, but I don't know what each level represents?

How to overclock AMD cpu?

I have AMD FX-6350, six core black box edition, which is for overclocking.

So, I finally bought SCYTHE Big Shuriken 2 Rev. B for it, how do I overclock it to 4.2 MHz, from the current 3.8MHz?

Cryorig H7 alternative?

I really wanted to buy this CPU cooler but can't; it's either sold out or Amazon doesn't ship it into my country.

Is there a good alternative for Cryorig H7, so an excellent fan no higher than 145mm, with a big fan.

P.S.
Please don't say Macho 90 again, as it doesn't exist in my country.

Re: Sign of system failure?

No, I don't use cellphones.

I think it also freezes the frame when in games, so it's not just sound distortion.

Be Quiet! is releasing Silent Wings 3 soon, they are the only company with virtually inaudible fans across the board.

Basically, up to 140mm height would be fine.

What does it mean when you hear a quick burst of sound distortion?

It lasts a second and every couple of hours, both from watching movie, youtube or playing games..

I made a huge mistake

I bought the Scythe Kotetsu, but the fan is 2cm taller than the width of the case for it to properly fit! Unbelievable, I waited a week for it to get delivered and now it's just money in the wind... Is there a shorter CPU fan equally good in terms of cooling and silence? Btw, the case is normal ATX ...

CPU bottlenecking?

I have an old PC as a secondary, but with a lot of newer parts. However, the CPU/MBO are pretty old: AMD Phenom II X2 550 and Asrock M3N78D. I was thinking of upgrading it with a new GPU, the potential candidates are Nvidia 750ti, GTX950 and GTX960, in the order of increased performance and price. W...

Re: Case fans, Fractal GP 140 vs bequiet Silent Wings 2 140?

You guys didn't explain anything properly, here is the proper explanation, so this MBO does have 4 pin connectors which means it does support all 4 PWM chassis fans. You also didn't say this- What speed you run your fans at is totally up to your personal preference. But the whole point of having a s...

With CTRL+F, PWM is not even mentioned, just that there are 4 chassis fan slots.

Re: Case fans, Fractal GP 140 vs bequiet Silent Wings 2 140?

I also have a question, if you want your MBO to dynamically control all the case fans via Fanxpert or something, do all the fans need to be PWM?

And if they are not what happens?

Case fans, Fractal GP 140 vs bequiet Silent Wings 2 140?

The bequiet one is 100% more expensive but is quieter by 4bB, both are below whisper quiet(20dB).

Of course, that doesn't say anything about what kind of noise they produce.

Has anyone experienced both fans?

Please review RVX01

We all know that vertical design is superior, this one has even 3 120mm fans at the bottom.

Model SST-RVX01BR would be without the window which would obviously be better for noise isolation.

Re: Best value CPU cooler?

Has anyone been able to find a low profile DDR4 2400MHz memory that is compatible with Ninja 4? Are these both considered "low profile"? https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/ceneje/www/images/products/hr/1024/4072/4072760-0.jpg https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/ceneje/www/images/products/mother/1024/...

Is it Scythe Ninja 4, as a middle ground between Kotetsu and Dark Rock Pro 3?
