Hardware & Reviews / Re: Got me some new hardware« on: February 10, 2016, 11:50:58 PM »Don't forget your CPU thermal paste is all I'll say. Oh, and also makes sure you don't have all the fans blowing into the case - you need some blowing and some sucking, just like..... The missing word is Marty, right? Front and side fans are sucking, rear fan blowing. The heatsink had thermal paste pre-applied so just using that for now and temps seems pretty good. I made a layout for my keyboard LCD to give me temp data on CPU and GPU as well as FPS and a few other things. 1847

Love it Now I just need some time for the joy of Assetto Corsa! I booted it up yesterday and fully maxed out the graphics settings to give it a go. Was getting fps dips into the mid 50's at spa which surprised me as I get a pretty constant 70fps on witcher 3 which is known for being GPU intensive. 1848

It's a fan controller, will speed up or slow down the fans based on the temperature, or you can manually override it. Seems to work okay, when I was running some GPU benchmarks last night I noticed it speeding the fans up as the temp went up then slowing them down again after. 1849

Finally entered the realms of real PC gaming, no more of this gaming laptop nonsense. Hadn't build a gaming machine in about 15 years; graphics cards got really fucking big!

CSGO and JC3 gave Steam codes. World of Warships is through wargaming.net and has a code too.
GB will send you the details for Warships. 1853

" Hmmm so this kind of thing never ends huh? *sigh* I just convinced my wife to let me borrow $1500 from our emergency fund to buy a new gaming PC, with the view of selling my current gaming laptop to cover some of the cost. Let's hope this thing sells!! 1856
