Hi,
Yeah Shawn posted a news thread whack they dropped the 24/ 48 version or didn't show it about the only one someone might afford at 1400.us like the 3960x

This is new, since yesterday, 64 cores 128 threads. Task Manager would need 2 monitors to show them all.

Not just 64-core but also octa-channel memory. Which is very important too. Impressive chip!

Just installed new cooler, Arctic Liquid freezer II 240 and temps are much worse than with my old CM Nepton 140XL.
By default it has only one PWM connector for both, pump and 2 fans which is supposed to be connected to CPU_FAN header. On this cooler pump doesn't show rpm so I'm not sure if it's actually running or how fast. Radiator is very cool to the touch like there's no water running thru. Fan speed doesn't matter, even at lowest rpm temps are same. I also split pump from fans and connected it to AIO_PUMP header which I know sends full 12v all the time so pump should run full speed all the time.
Going to experiment a bit, first to disconnect both radiator fans and see if temps change at all.
If no change maybe I should turn radiator so hoses are at bottom instead at top like I usually install. Maybe there's air inside at top radiator reservoir.
How do you guys install it ?

Hi,
Just noticed Micro Center has a 500.us gift card drawing for personal built pc subs ending July 31st and drawing August 3rd I believe
Sure doesn't hurt

Builds : Micro Center

Some people will need to hone their photography skills in showcasing their PC's. Also note the signup page's images (and systems)

Anyway I don't think I'll be posting, so...
