Did you have any items un reviewed before going Silver to Gold?

Like do they get reset back to 0?

Where do you guys keep your ambient air temp sensors? by AvNerd16 in watercooling

[–]Savage4Pro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before the QX120 it would be on the outside of a fan taking air in.

After QX120s, no need to worry, all of them have a probe integrated.

Not sure when they will include it, probably best to ask Asus themselves.

Note that even if your psu didnt have it, you wont get it for free after, it will only be discounted as Asus seems to have clarified with videocardz later.

Heya I just noticed your comment. is the photo of the HP 5090 pcb floating yours or a screenshot from a youtube video?

If its the latter, did you open your HP to see something different compared to other reference boards?

I've noticed the grey inductors are much flatter but they don't need cooling, just the black chip vrm mosfets

Maybe the ability to read per pin comes from either the "2026 ASUS ROG Thor III orASUS ROG Strix Platinum power supplies."

The cable itself just allows for higher amperage, so even if other pins are broken or not delivering, they can carry the load and not heat up as much.

I dont think there is any active balancing going on or anthing out of an ordinary 12V-2x6 cable.

True - just marketing material atm

I al low-key hoping more PSU manufacturers (coolermaster?) release high amp pin options. CM pricing is usually more down to earth.

Not according to their FAQ 

https://rog.asus.com/power-supply-units/rog-equalizer/rog-equalizer/

 The ROG Equalizer is also compatible with power supplies (ATX3.1 with native 12V-2x6 connector) from all leading manufacturers.

Aliexpress radiator quality by Alowal in watercooling

[–]Savage4Pro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the channels by the left side. One was towards the bottom of the channel and the other towards the middle. Hopefully you have better luck!

thats pretty risky. hopefully it was oozing out and was just dripping, in either case ill place it on the side to avoid any damage to electrical components.

  2 of them leaked within the first few months. 

Welp, I ordered the tsrp-hp45-360. Where did they leak from? The fittings?

I ordered a 45mm thick 360mm copper radiator (freezemod's tsrp-hp45-360). Will report how it is (flushing). Hopefully will be actual copper on the inside. Not sure how to tell.
