I just benchmarked for 4k. Lol. That won't be happening anytime soon for me.

How is this?



I don't know. Given the price, probably mediocre to not very good. I thought you needed better signal strength. You won't get it from bargain routers with internal antennae.

Nerd-gasm.

I love builds with attention to detail. Take your time. BE VERY CAREFUL removing the RAM heatspreaders for painting (and obviously test them thoroughly first). Likewise for the video card shrouds.

If this is your first custom loop, run just the loop (jump your power supply) for at least 12 hours for leak testing and air bleeding before powering on the components. Ideally, best practice is to run the loop outside of the case, but it's difficult to do that and plan complicated tubing routes at the same time (with a CPU-only loop you should be able to do this, though). Wrap every connection in toilet paper (specifically toilet paper because it will show signs of moisture much easier than paper towels, and very slow leaks aren't always obvious enough to see with the naked eye).

And be sure to take good pictures in the best lighting possible. Bring it outside if you have to if it's not too cold.

Here's SmallNetBuilder's review: LINK

Also, on closer examination, I just realized that bridge is 5Ghz band only.

Yea I've tested the RAM and GPUs in my other system, they are good to go. I've been test fitting for a couple hours today trying to get an idea of the loop and it looks like I might need to order a 90 or two. I had 2 in my cart when I bought the other shite then ended up not ordering them....I knew I should have. But luckily it looks like it will be pretty easy to run all the tubing and still remove the MB for testing it. It's definitely going to fill this case up pretty nicely, I love this case (Enthoo Luxe).

ILike I have a question, here is my score after finding a good (safe) setting on my GPUs and my CPU at 4.6, when I bumped my CPU to 4.7 (auto setting in my bios) I lost 500 points, why?

Ok this makes no sense, I backed my CPU down to 4.5 and my score went higher, what am I not doing right?

Probably just normal fluctuations. Scores aren't deviating by much.

I would assume heat throttling is the reason its lower, but don't take my word

Could be a slightly unstable overclock. Avoid auto volts with high/auto vdroop control. There's only one right way to overclock. Also, 3dmark scores do have a 3-5% variance.

Well, I had to fire someone right before Christmas. It was a family member too. He cost me $2200 though so he had to go.

Nah sucks way for me and frick him

He lied to me to cover his arse and still took payment for the jobs anyway telling me they were complete. It just took a little while for it all to catch up to him because of the way this industry I am in works but when it hit it all hit at once and I had to fire him.

I would have never hired him but his mom asked me to give him a job and I was about to hire some more people at the time anyway.

I called his dad (my uncle) after I fired him and his dad said "I am surprised he lasted this long" They know he is a lazy PoS and have given up on him.
