    Are Silverstone PSUs worth a punt?

    I might just add that things started moving a bit yesterday. I was contacted by the Delhi office of Fortune (the distri) and they asked me to get the supply to the local office. Will update once the whole thing is completed.

    Are Silverstone PSUs worth a punt?

    I think Tier C is being generous. The fact is parts sometimes fail. At least there should be reasonable quality of service, which is also missing. CX-M from Corsair is usable, but who knows in the long run. When you have nine rigs like me, it's not always possible to go for top tier PSUs for...

    Are Silverstone PSUs worth a punt?

    My experience with Silverstone is horrible. I bought three of their Viva Bronze, mostly going off their reputation from the early part of the century. I acquired two Viva 550 bronze and one 650. The 650 is still fine so far. Both 550s have failed. One failed after I gave it to a friend's son...

    PC Peripherals Need help for getting a NM-i115x mounting kit

    What kits do you actually have with the cooler? I would consider a trade for 78mm pitch LGA1700, if you have one. The U12S and my L12 share the 78mm pitch so I can send you mine as I'm pretty sure I'm never going to need it. I do however plan on getting a U12 or U14 at some point, and the 17/18x...

    FS: Home Audio Video TILEAR XZD-1752 Texas Instruments 3251 Chip-based 2.0 Amplifier

    You're not supposed to bump, but here's a friendly warning, the 3251 has an absolute max of 38V operating voltage, so 32-34V is the maximum safe supply. https://www.ti.com/product/TPA3251

    Graphic Cards Good connector design versus 12HPWR

    The only time we ever use solder on wire is on things like front panel switches and buttons that present only solder tabs. Anywhere a crimp is available, we use a crimped connector, and wire-to-board is usually a quick disconnect or a crimp sleeve before soldering, if we ever need bare wire to...

    Graphic Cards Good connector design versus 12HPWR

    Nope. Solder forms barrier layers with about 15% of copper conductivity, whereas crimps will make a direct metal to metal connection. Better still, the cold weld formed after a few heat cycles makes it a single metal junction. A good crimp is usually indistinguishable from a solid single metal...

    Graphic Cards Good connector design versus 12HPWR

    I'm late to the 12HPWR connector party, having only recently picked up a RTX4090. Better late than never, right? It came with a quad 8 pin PCIe to 12HPWR connector. While I transition to a new RMe1000 (another story of poor design choices), I thought I'd make some observations about the 12HPWR...
