  1. What's a small wind-tunnel case?

    After a little episode where I had to spend over 20 minutes doing something as simple as plugging out an ethernet cable, plugging in another one, then plugging the old one back in, it's starting to get obvious that my current case does not fit my current room situation. It is also very annoying...
  2. Practical Memory Settings

    So we have a thing like this, looks great and all - dual-rank 8 gbit Sammy B running at a chilly 1.63v Bit of a pain to set up, requires a fan, questionable long-term (12+ hour high-intensity workload) stability. Thus I raise a question to the folks that peruse the place: How much performance...
  3. Vermeer (overclocking, i guess?) Considerations

    Courtesy of a Good Fren, I got a 5800x in the mail about five days ago without blowing up my bank account. So then, what's it all about? Well first and foremost, the BIOSes (or at least, ones for my board) are rough around the edges - here's a 2:1 memory:fabric ratio turned on, with a...

  6. Faulty Zen 2 IMCs, and possibly, how to spot if you have one

    So here's a fun story for you: Back in the start of December, I moved someplace, then I moved back. Seeing that Noctua heatsinks have a nightmarish mounting mechanism, I didn't undo my heatsink - and my 3600 CPU got wrecked the second time. wHoopS So, I replace my 3600 with a 3700x - after a...
  7. Zen 2 Quest (3733 CL14-15-15-28 @ 1.47v Get)

    Feb 2020 Edit: Despite wild hardware adventures and a board swap for the better, pretty much every drop has been squished by now Furthermore, I'd like to remind people to test your **** ****; 3733 had a performance regression on the b450 Tomahawk compared to 3666, so the premise of this thread...
