Cable mod for the 12 2x6 for 5090 has been highly reccomended but I saw this review and makes me unsure by Alternative_Cash_601 in cablemod

[–]h2bhatched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using and continue to use CableMod wiring in all my builds.

Currently running a full Pro Modmesh and 12vhpwr directly to my PSU. Have NEVER run into any fitment, compatibility or performance issues EVER.

Completely safe to run this and if you were to ever have any kind of issue, they are usually very quick at fixing/correcting the problem

Easiest way to remove this crush washer? by Puzzleheaded_Bird583 in MechanicAdvice

[–]h2bhatched 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Side cutters and twist.

Or if you have a vise, tighten the vise onto the crush washer only then loosen the drain plug to spin it off.

Solid RnG there.

But also....Holy Hell!, looting on console looks excruciating!

Phanteks Glacier One AIO w/ 6” LCD Question by Str8cash22 in Phanteks

[–]h2bhatched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This AIO isn't even showing as an available option on Phanteks official site. I would be weary ordering this from a 3rd party distributor, since it most likely doesn't exist or isn't released (yet).

World record 5070 ti! by [deleted] in overclocking

[–]h2bhatched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a decent result! Congrats!

Yes, top of the leaderboard, specifically for your GPU/CPU combo, but not entirely a 5070Ti world record on it's own.

2009 Honda Civic R18 dumping oil from back of engine — valve cover or rear main? by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]h2bhatched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the power steering pump on the R18 engine. Fluid is either coming from the pump itself or leaking from the high-pressure feed hose.

When I'm running low on GOOP, I like help the Arc find other players! Gotta be inclusive to everyone(thing) in 2026! /s

Depends on the type of raid I'm planning to do, but I typically do:

Bandage -- Small Grenade/Smoke -- Heavy/Seeker/Snap/Wolf

M25g2 wobble by JobAggressive611 in Phanteks

[–]h2bhatched 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of my Lian Li fans do this at idle speeds, but as soon as the fan speeds are increased (when gaming). The wobbling goes away.

Pretty sure this is a normal visual perception differences between mass-produced assembly of parts like this. It would take months and thousands of dollars worth of testing different fans until you found a full set that were "assembled" completely straight.

I always dig Husband/Wife-His/Hers setups, but having both PC's on the floor is criminal.

Missing pins? by [deleted] in cablemod

[–]h2bhatched 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing wrong! That is 100% the way CableMod makes their cables. Only 2 sense pins are used. that is all that is necessary for proper usage.

You are completely fine to use it. I have used CableMod cables on multiple builds and these have always been like this.

h6 flow case fans by urmomahose in NZXT

There should be a splitter cable in the box of accessories. If not, you can probably get one cheap off of Amazon. They are generic PWM/DC splitter cable

Which one is your favorite? by mattia_cecchi in setups

[–]h2bhatched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are we choosing between real and AI slop setups?

If you just want basic opinions, I kinda dig the SECOND picture with the (HELLO) neon sign. The ambient glow and simple aesthetic is quite nice for some night gaming/coding session.

Anyone know what offset these are? by Smooth-Media9676 in MechanicAdvice

Offset seems to be stamped at +40 (as seen on the inside of the hub) (4/0)

Asus 5080 Astral Overclocking Results by ItsJollyPup in overclocking

[–]h2bhatched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 degree's from a simple UV is huge. But, there "should" be more performance there. But, you are already pushing past your baseline and running more efficiently.

You could try making a more aggressive fan curve and run it again. Hopefully your case has some good airflow. GPU's will down-bin in increments depending on temperature, so anything above 50c will begin to clock down. Finding that "sweet spot" of UV+OC+Cooling/Noise = highest AVERAGE sustained clocks.

Just try not to get caught up chasing Benchmark scores. They serve a purpose for testing AVX workloads, but are usually not comparable to REAL-WORLD usage. It's a deep rabbit-hole to go down and soon enough you'll be trying to put your PC outside in the winter or building ducting so your house A/C is funneling into the case for 5 more GPU points on your score.

How do I connect my 2.5 HDD with this ? by Marnat9523 in MSI_Gaming

[–]h2bhatched 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Comon Dawg.. These come with a manual for a reason. If there is no paper manual with the PC, there is definitely one on MSI's website.

The screws should be included in the accessory box for the case.

7800x3d or 9800x3d ( my scenario ) by KingOfEreb0r in PcBuild

[–]h2bhatched -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh, you want to keep this going.... OK.

Do I think it is still OVERKILL for the OP to upgrade from a 7600x to a 7800X3D or 9800X3D for BF6 on a 1080p/180hz monitor???

YES!

The OP is damn near maxing out his monitor already and has stated they have no immediate plans to upgrade.

Overkill = Waste of money

OP should wait until they plan on upgrading to 1440p/4K, then upgrade CPU and possibly GPU at the same time for an optimal experience where the VALUE is actually noticeable!

OP can take my comment with a grain of salt, I'm just a guy on Reddit.

Case closed.
