Thanks both this is really helpful, will look at the P12’s and Signalrgb. @Mcnumpty2323 do you use the free or pro version, pro version looks quite steep given the SAS model they follow

Its been a while since I built my WC PC so I've somewhat lost touch with the latest and greatest. Short story, one of my Lian Li Uni Fan SL120's has gone bad after 2 years and needs to be replaced, just to be difficult this is on the underside of my rad so will need a full dismantle of the WC...

@TnBDelta yes that's the leak tester. Regarding the pumps, if your going for the G1 distro EK make two variants, one with the DD 3.1 pump and one with the 3.2 pump, I've not checked to see if they make a further version with the 4.2 pump. Note the 4.2 is the same as the 3.2 but they updated to...

Thanks @EsaT ill look into those :)

OK take two considering some valuable points re the case and the PSU demands. I have a large enough bulk storage HDD, 3900x CPU and a GPU My basket at Overclockers UK: 1 x WD Blue SN550 1TB SSD NVME M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3 Solid State Drive (WDS100T2B0C)= £89.99 1 x Asus ROG Strix B550-F Gaming...

happy to do away with RGB all together

Excellent, thanks. Basket updated :)

pretty set on the case

My daughters PC is needing an update, I have a 3900x going unused and will retain her 1080 GPU and a 2TB HDD. Usage is general gaming (RDR2, COD etc) and school work, I have the following basket, anything I should change? My basket at Overclockers UK: 1 x Lian-Li O11 Dynamic Mini-S...

Thanks @Cookie12, I looked into plex a few years ago and discounted as it didn’t support satellite cards, I checked again and incredibly it still doesn’t. I’ll take a look into the 8100. regarding os/and software I don’t believe windows really offers the level of NAS features I need but...

Hi all, I currently have an aging NAS and an even older Windows Media PC (12+ years) both are needing to be replaced as they are noisy even after cleaning out and starting to get very slow in general usage. I'm looking at a 3U rack case to go in my network rack but beyond that I need a some...

awesome price for a great cpu!

Small update to this... The local company I planned to use let me down 3 times so I'm running cable myself, a quick visit into the loft and I've found out the plasterboard is dot-dabbed so easy enough to run cables down to where needed and I've now got cable rods in place. Time to get that drum...

What's everyone using to OC these chips, direct bios changes or ryzen master, or something else?

I built a pretty similar rig to the one in your spec in an 011D-XL with EK G1 distro during lockdown and updated it to a 5900x from a 3900x and 3090FE from a 1080Ti just two weeks ago. The 5900x idles around 35-38C, 3090 FE at 27C while the loop sits at 28C, under load these hit 70C and 47C...

looks good! congrats on the build :)

I just did this upgrade today. 3900x is no slouch but after an hours gaming this evening CODMW seems to be snappier. Maybe not worth it tbh but for me this system will (hopefully) be my last upgrade until AM5 and DDR5 mature so needs to last a good couple of years.

Thanks for the advice :) Update - I managed to get both 3 x fans in pace by installing the fittings and tube runs first, not the easiest thing to do when they are in a case but a flexible screw driver helped. Air pressure leak tested and fine so far…. Tomorrow I’ll be putting the wb on the...

Hi all, I’m in the process is an upgrade (3900x -> 5900x, EK block on my 3090FE and switching fans over to SL120’s). I heard that 16mm fittings were tight on the PE rad with these fans and right enough they are. I recall someone taking a dremel to the fan nearest the fitting but can’t find...

perfect thanks. I’ll grab the first one. Nice to have one kit with everything in it. I’ve got a few scattered around in draws and can never find the bit I need!
