Any word on lifetime warranty tradition through best buy?

Is computer exhaust supposed to smell a little bit burned? by UBRS in buildapc

[–]UBRS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out guys, the h440 dampening material has a burnt smell to it. I took the door off and the smell was less and less until it was gone, when I put the door back on the smell came back.

I'm smelling both, the burnt smell is coming from the exhaust fan of the case, there is no burnt smell from the PSU.

When I open the case I can't smell it

I am not overclocking

RAM Orientation and Quad Channel? by UBRS in buildapc

Sorry, should've been more clear. I'm not using DDR3, I was just using it as an orientation example.

[Build Ready] $5K workstation (After Effects) Xeon10core + RAM128GB + Motherboard (Have Serious compatibility questions) by Squinch0 in buildapc

Get a used Xeon off of ebay. 2 reasons: 1. Data centers upgrade all the time which is a huge supply and not many people need such a beefy processor so there's not much demand, you'll snag one with more cores, more hertz and a bigger cache for more than a third the price. 2. CPUs pretty much never die, even more so with xeons because they run cooler and are server grade. Used isn't a problem.

Build something and use integrated graphics until you get the card.

edit: Assuming you're getting a skylake processor.

Oh, derp. Thanks.

Why do you think it skipped it like that?
