    EK Releases Full Suite of Water Blocks for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090

    The lack of air conditioning explains it. I keep my room between 20-25C but temps are always under 40C for my GPU. I'm not running 4K yet. I want to change my triple 1440P monitors to 4K. There are really any IPS, HDR1400, 240Hz panels out yet that I want with the new display port or HDMI...

    EK Releases Full Suite of Water Blocks for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090

    Those are high temps for your set up. My overclocked 3090 at 450W stays under 40C with dual 360mm rads, CPU draws around 121W (5950X) average.

    EK Releases Full Suite of Water Blocks for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090

    Why would EK make the backplate Black on a nickel plated /Plexi block?? It should be silver to match the aesthetics. This isn’t to mention they changed the design from the beautiful 3090 FE block from the other year. That one has the best styling overall which if I recall, won an award too. It...

    Bitspower Intros Touchaqua Sedna Kit for Lian Li O11 Dynamic Series Cases

    Cheaper materials are more prone to fail as I've experienced with certain brands. EK, for example doesn't always use the best quality arcylic because I've had some crack over time with no stress added from the fittings. Cast vs Extreuded and the thickness of each makes a difference. Price...

    Bitspower Intros Touchaqua Sedna Kit for Lian Li O11 Dynamic Series Cases

    Nothing is excessive if you desire to have the best. I'm an engineer and when I build a PC it's down correctly without compromise. Material quality is key as well, you can buy cheaper ones but you risk problems. I have a $700 X570 motherboard (Aorus Xtreme) , does it make sense, nope but it...

    Bitspower Intros Touchaqua Sedna Kit for Lian Li O11 Dynamic Series Cases

    Distro plates aren't cheap. I build 2 systems one for my wife and one for me in Lian Li cases. If you do you loops correctly and don't cut corners. I spent $400 on my distro plate and $250 on my wife's and the price of mine doesn't include the 2x Aquacomputer D5 Next pumps. Sure you can do...

    Thermaltake Announces TOUGHFAN TOUGHFAN 12 High Static Pressure Fan and Pure Series Duo Fans

    Caselabs went out of business for other reasons like their razor thin margins and having prices increase for their raw materials. There was a lot of discussion about their closure on here for reference. Don't spread inaccurate information when there's a lot more to the story than what was...

    Thermaltake Announces TOUGHFAN TOUGHFAN 12 High Static Pressure Fan and Pure Series Duo Fans

    I agree but they also have a lot of their own unique designs now despite blatently copying many others.

    Bitspower Intros Touchaqua Sedna O11D Lite-F for Lian Li O11 Dynamic

    I keep all of my lights White since my case is white and it looks cleaner. Of course you can choose to change then to ant color but there's no need

    Thermaltake Presents the New Core P8 Tempered Glass Full-Tower Chassis

    Given you're phrasing of things no. Also, saying 'Thermalfake' removes any credibility from your post. If you can't be civil about things don't bother

    Thermaltake Presents the New Core P8 Tempered Glass Full-Tower Chassis

    The front clearly can have minimal air flow by it, look at the pictures

    Thermaltake Presents the New Core P8 Tempered Glass Full-Tower Chassis

    Thermaltake makes The Tower 900 which can house 2x 560mm radiators. I own one and there's plenty of room if you want to go big. Edit: The P8 can easily handle more than 1 420mm radiator, it looks like you can fit 2 maybe 3 deoeni on the thickness of each. Top/bottom/ front or side

    Thermaltake Presents the New Core P8 Tempered Glass Full-Tower Chassis

    There are tiny gaps on the sides of the front panel for front intake, same goes for the top. Side intake is also open via mesh slots in the case. It's pretty easy to see but not the best for airflow. I'd rather run it as an open frame chassis and powder coat in white

    EK Waterblocks Launches EK-Quantum Reflection Obsidian 1000D D5 PWM D-RGB Distro Plate

    EK is taking away the WHOLE front radiator space which mind you holds dual 480mm Rads for this distro plate. They're literally saying screw cooling which means only a top radiator and rear exhaust (top supports a 420mm rad). I have the 1000D and it sucks even with dual frontal 480mm rads due to...
