Suspect a failing temp sensor (or two). Curious if this rings any bells to anybody else before I tear the whole thing apart. It's been powered off for a while, but I think it had this issue on a when put away too. Did some feeling around and I didn't feel anything getting actually hot. I'm...

I've been seeing poor performance on my SanDisk Extreme Pro 256GB USB drive since its initial purchase in November 2017. I initially saw my drive easily hit the advertised speeds of 400+ MB/s reads and 300+ MB/s writes pretty continually. After 10 months of light use, I opened a ticket with...

BestBuy has this EVGA - 80 PLUS 600W ATX PSU for $30 plus tax with in-store pick-up where available. Pretty solid, in my humble opinion.

Newegg has the Raijntek Aidos 92mm CPU Cooler on sale for $16.99 with free shipping. Here's a TPU review for this cooler from Crazyeyesreaper. Performance was roughly on par with the 212 Evo. No Mail-In Rebate, no filling out forums, no "Like our Facebook page". The way a deal should be. :D

Newegg appears to be offloading Intel Compute Stick on their eBay storefront for $79.99 + FS. This is the 2GB memory model that comes with Windows 10. Limit 5 per customer. For our WCG crunchers, this thing did pretty alright (foggy guess is 1k or so?). Charges off USB, so it sips power. Can't...

So, the boss wants me to salvage a PC that died. The only thing that survived is the case (duh), and possibly the memory and hard drive. Old CPU is embedded (AMD A6). I said get a new PC, but he wants to salvage the case and put something "fast and cheap" in it. He told me "It shot sparks out of...

So, I'm trying to get in to the OPROM for a Dell SAS5/i on a Dell Inspiron 3847 to manage the two SAS drives attached to it. The SAS5/i controller and two SAS drives were formerly in an older Dell PowerEdge 1900 server which occasionally had issues booting to these drives. The controller would...

I have a basically completed mini-ITX build that's been sitting around doing nothing because I stole the case it was in. I'm starting to feel guilty about just letting it sit, so I'm thinking I better pick up a case for it. Intended hardware (going off of memory): Intel Pentium G3258...

I've been looking at SSDs trying to figure out what I'm going to put in a new laptop I have coming soon. My main focus has been the Samsung 950 Pro, but am a bit turned off by its high $/GB (speed comes at a price, I suppose). I could afford it, but my main concern is I expect/fear that the...

Would there be any possibility for a place to record system specs for multiple rigs? I've seen many users here simply put pipes between components in the system specs, but that quickly becomes difficult to read. As an example, overclock.net has a plugin/widget that allows users to list rigs...
