Probably, but would the fans get damaged by spinning well beyond rating ? Why take chance. Just use fingers or pencil and the like. Its fairly easy and leaf blower can quickly clean up dust even in lowest speeds, so we don't have to run it for long.

Probably avoid asrock https://techenclave.com/threads/issues-and-sudden-failures-with-certain-asrock-boards-and-ryzen-9800x3d-pair.226436/

Use fingers / tape if needed. Fingers are enough as i clean it in a focussed way when over fans. Only need to do this when air is flowing quickly through the fans ofc. Have heard that it can damage the fans and also it could send current back if it spins backwards. Dunno about 2nd one but leaf...

1) Use a leaf blower or similar for cleaning ( a. Make sure that fans are prevented from moving when cleaning and b. that humidity is not very low, say > 60% or research static electricity low humidity ) 2) Use dust filters around intake fans and make sure intake airflow > exhaust fan airflow...

Just googling 'start button computer cabinet header' gave me two cheap options. I have no idea if these are good or seller/site is good. Check it yourself. pc part sellers ideally should have cheap options for things like this, or pc bell etc. I dont know if they do. Pretty sick to suggest new...

swap the start and restart headers on the motherboard if you have two buttons on case.

Both dlcs are great really. Hearts and stone is like a mini witcher 2 in that its a focused story. Blood and wine is like a mini witcher 3, has a new area, its prettier than base game. Loved both of them, one of the few games where i actually wanted to play the dlcs and had not gotten tired...

No, HDR doesnt do much on these monitors. Not worth switching. I had tried it too on Acer 27 1440p. Did not get it and turned it off. HDR needs perfect blacks which plain led ips/va does not do and high peak brightness and contrast. Per pixel control in oled is perfect for it, although brighter...

What is the motivation behind it though ? 144 to 180 is not worth it. And besides even getting 144 consistently is not going to happen easily I don't like 60 anymore, but 90 + is good. 144 is very good. Beyond this gains are slower, even visually. I wouldn't bother with this frankly if you dont...

Absolutely hate those, very bad for fingers. My fingers are much better once i started using brown mech keyboard ( basic redgear one for now) as it allows one to avoid bottoming out. Also, I got so used to MX518 shape that i just use 402. Its not the most sturdy, though current one has lasted...

No problem with FPS games for me, i play a lot of those - though i dont play MP these days. Played Doom eternal for 2nd time, definitely did not feel any worse. It looks absolutely fantastic in HDR. First time i played on an old 1080p ips screen. Then i thought it looked mediocre but with...

Day 1 - i liked it Within few days - Dont even notice it ( unfortunately ? Because i liked it). Dunno about aggressive curves.

2000$ gpus, which itself is shit price in terms of perf/price vs 4090, being sold for 4k. Suddenly 2400$ is much lower and a value price. They are still selling from what i read, supply is very low i think. They wouldn't be raising prices otherwise. I think they may be working better for AI...

Would you go back to ips ? That's what he seems to be contemplating. Common issues i remember reading about VA - view angle (hence curve) / have to set at center to get best picture quality / edges look worse than center / lower colors ( but contrast should more than make up for it), slow...

32GS60QC seems to be a VA panel. VA is supposed to have better contrast, better black levels but have other issues. ips is safe choice, but some will definitely prefer VA for the contrast. Neither comes close to oled/miniled. I have never used VA, better look for reviews and search for pros and...
