Dayummmm! The sub 300mm 3090 list gets smaller.

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/Asus-GeForce-RTX-3090-TUF-Gaming-OC-24GB-GDDR6X-PCI-Express-Graphics-Card-GX-44E-AS.html?campaign=affiliate/tag I've been keeping an eye on one of these as it is one of the few cards that would fit in a Streacom DA2. It's gone from out of stock to not available...

Seasons greetings! It's been a few years since my last build and it was all Intel at the time. I'm going down the mini-ITX route now and already have a Streacom DA2 waiting to be filled with a Corsair SF750 on order. Next is which processor. Will mainly be gaming, a bit of non-taxing Office...

Well, instead of taking the plunge, I've dipped a toe. Case bought and delivered from OCUK. I'll collect parts over the months to soften the blow of expense and leave the water cooling for last. It's a beautiful, well made case. Fine grain to the metal, almost like the striker on safety...

Thank you - that's really good info.

Evening all, Getting my usual three year itch to build a new system again. I plan on using a Streacom DA2. Initially I'll put a new Ryzen 9 3900x and a GTX1070 I've got lying around in and air-cool it to get a feel of the space but plan to swap the card for a RTX2080Ti and hardline them...

One will be in a storeroom away from the main part of the house, the other will be in an office space in the upstairs landing next to a bedroom. I'd rather pay for silence or at least a quiet hum no louder than a PC.

Looking for advice regarding managed switches. The one length of Cat5e that runs the length of our house is being replaced today with 4 lengths of Cat6 running side-by-side with the intention of increasing bandwidth between the 100+TB of storage and the devices that use them. The electrician...

Thanks all. As bad luck would have it, Wednesday's storms blew out many of the ports on my routers and a NAS so before I go down the 10Gb route, I'll be looking for some UPSs.

Advice on planned home network changes appreciated. Shortly after moving into our home, I had Cat5e installed to run the length of the house. At the time, it was to share internet throughout the house so the set up was: router---Cat5e---Netgear GS108 (supplying TV, Sky HD Box, XBox One)...

Anything other than the Predator XB321HK? Planning on using mainly for Office use with the odd game (Battlefield 4 and F1 2016) thrown in. Advice gratefully received.

It's a pain in the bottom anyway. I have the 170 and the top of the light tube in it is only a few mm from the port so you need to be slow when you're filling. I'd just use the ports on the pump.

Valves prevent backflow but do nothing to equalise resistance to flow - though I am basing this on human anatomy, not hard plumbing.

Cavitation? I stopped using my H100 because of it.

Afternoon! I downloaded this from Steam yesterday and installed it but it's unplayable due to random control issues - the car seems to take on a life of it's own, either not responding to keyboard input or veering off from a straight line without any keyboard input. No other controllers...

I used at least one tube learning how to bend and get the feel of when was too cold, too hot and just right. I found the rubber in the bend kit slightly too big for the tubes and despite sanding was still a pig to work with and distorted the hot tubes. I'd get a few different makes and see...

Better late than never...

Thanks, will give it a try. Only one solitary primochill revolver left here and just found them on e-bay for a tenner a pop! This rebuild for cosmetic purposes is turning out to be very expensive!
