I haven't but I don't really see a reason to do it: the temps are good, the card is overclocked to its limit, the fan does't spin if not gaming or watching extended videos, and even when spinning it's very quiet. Why tweak something that works so nicely ?

Hi, I'm not @K888D but I have a 8600k and I'm using a Noctua nh-d9l and I'm getting really good results both in terms of temps and thermals. Not sure what u are asking about the cable lengths, but if u are concerned about cable management I can tell you that it's a bit tricky but patience...

the first 2 pins from top right. the ones that say "PWR BTN" on the image. When you first insert the power plug the RGB will turn on, then you would turn on your computer and then when you turn it off the RGBs should turn off. is your PC booting at all ?

from this state try to disconnect the power cable, wait 5 seconds, reconnect it and try to power the system on. does it work ? do this without disconnecting the power brick from the wall ...

It's the HDPLEX400 feeding ASROCK motherboards. There seem to be voltage spikes that cause the motherboard to not boot correctly in certain conditions. People are especially experiencing it with ASROCK motherboards with Z370/Z270/Z170 chipsets but the problem is not totally limited to this brand...

Just came here to congratulate @K888D and @Tek Everything for the amazing product and video. can't wait to see the results of your benchmarks. I'm sadly having issues with my configuration as the HDPLEX doesn't seem to get along with the ASROCK Z370 fatal1ty motherboard :-(

I'm having PSU issues but I don't know if to blame the HDPLEX 400w or the dell 330w power brick,.. is there a way to tell ? long story: Sometimes my system would power up just fine and run smoothly but other times when it boots it takes a significant long time to do so and eventually it would...

To me all those existing eGPU don't make sense because with the same space of their enclosures (see the Razer Core) i can usually build a full PC inside the cases present in this forum. So in my opinion you need to focus in keeping the quality of the components up and the size of the whole...

silly me I didn't check it but I can give it a go when i go back in the BIOS to OC the ram :-)

IMO if you are going with the LZ7 with SFX PSU stay away from the unlocked CPUs. Those low profile coolers are not meant to OC, they are meant for noise reduction. This doesn't mean you can't overclock with them, but you won't get much out of them since you gonna end up thermal throttling pretty...

5ghz !!! Well i wouldn't call this OC stable as I wasn't able to pass the 20min mark on prime95 without thermal throttling but I was able to pass all these other benchmarks without problems and with decent noise levels. I haven't tested 4.9Ghz but I did 30 min of prime 95 at 4.8ghz averaging 79c...

My new rig !!! more info and tests coming soon.

Exactly the reason why I bought it. Glad to see my decision process seconded by someone else :-)

K888D I think the passion you put towards your product is really remarkable and it was definitely one of the reasons why I went with your product. Also, disclosing your costs and markups is admirable and I really appreciate you doing it. Yes, this product costs an arm and a leg but to me it is...

I'm also a happy customer and today the product arrived in all it's beauty. I opted for the DC-DC power supply and I will try to see if it will handle some overclock on my incoming 8600k. I know it sounds somehow wrong to push overclock through a DC-DC psu and in a super tiny case but i want to...
