    Thermalright Intros Socket AM5 Optimized Retention Module for its Legacy Coolers

    I ordered the universal BTK like a month ago from https://proline.pl/zapinka-uniwersalna-thermalright-true-btk-p6715700 I got sent the old version, not the updated one. Perhaps if I could have spoken the language and sent them an email, they couldve checked their stock for the updated one...

    Thermalright Intros Socket AM5 Optimized Retention Module for its Legacy Coolers

    You mean THIS? http://www.thermalright.com/product/true-universal-btk/ As I understand, AM5's hatch/locking mechanism bolts to the AM5 backplate, so a) if the old cooler uses the two plastic hooks to mount it, it is OK b) if it bolts onto/into the standard AMD AM4 backplate (like the stock...

    MSI RX 580 Gaming X 8Gb (Hynix Memory) - Searching official BIOS

    It's seems to be misnamed by the uploader, I wouldn't put too much attention to that name. Edit: you can compare the product and subsystem id's to make sure it's the correct product (sku)...

    Noctua Launches NH-P1 Passive CPU Cooler and LS-PWM Fan for Semi-fanless Systems

    Who is this really for? Is it mainly for "just because (we can)" as i think the situation where 100% passive cooled solution is *actually* required there are better specialty solutions available.

    QNAP Launches AMD-powered, Quad-core 2.0GHz, 10GbE TS-x63U Series NAS

    AM1 does support ECC, except only one board to my knowledge actually (kind of) enables support for it, the AM1M-A from ASUS. AMD should take note from Intel's ARK as their product page for the 5350 says it doesn't support ECC, AES and AVX, even though it does (source AMDs Software Optimisation...

    Abee Intros Acubic C10R Line of Mini-ITX Cases

    Very-very expensive and it even doesn't support dual-slot videocard:mad: Who'd be mad enough to get one of those- definately not an enthusiast- a single-slot 7750 http://www.powercolor.com/Global/products_features.asp?id=442#Specification isn't what you'd call enthusiast-grade. The 5,25" is a...

    Bad flash on HD6450

    Hi! I tried to get higher OC potential (more than stock max of 725/900) from my Club3D HD6450 1GB and flashed a Sapphire HD6450 BIOS found on the TPU database onto it. Now it doesn't start. First reboot into win 8 it got to login screen, and then went black. Have been trying to update the...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 690 4 GB

    Doubt 7990 will beat this monster in games, unless AMD does something radical. However, 7970 is a versatile card (GPGPU, Double Precision etc), GTX680 (and 690 ofcourse) is only (very) good at gaming.
