I have an i9-13900 incoming. This is the 65W version.
Is the Noctua NH-D12L good enough to cool this CPU well? I was considering the NH-D15S, but it's just so big and would make getting to the RAM a pain on my ITX board.
I'm building in an Aperio ITX:
I have a H100i Elite Capellix 240mm AIO to use, but the only way to mount it is like this:
That's completely opposite of the way Corsair says it should be mounted...
How do you configure Karhu Ram Test so that it tests as much RAM as possible?
I know part of it requires disabling the Windows pagefile temporarily while the test runs.

Right now, I have airflow going straight through the case to cool the CPU / HSF. If I add a fan on the side of the case, blowing at the RAM (green rectangle):
Would adding this "cross-flow" negatively impact CPU temps.?

So in a couple of reviews I've read of the Samsung 970 Pro., there were mentions of the label on the drive having an embedded copper strip to aid in cooling the drive. I've peeled up the entire label and do not see any metal embedded in it.
Did Samsung stop using those "cooling" labels on...

So I'm setting up a new system in a Corsair 380T ITX case:

So I'm waiting for this board to arrive:
Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming-ITX/ac
ASRock > Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming-ITX/ac
the only problem I have with the board is that they put a mini-PCIe slot on it instead of M.2 for the wifi card.
The board has a M.2 slot for a SSD on the underside, a standard 16x slot...
So I'd like to be able to do a clean install of Windows 10 using the ISO.
Can I activate that Windows 10 install with my Windows 8.1 product key or do I have to install the Windows 10 upgrade first so that the Windows 8.1 product key can be "converted" to a Windows 10 product key?

Ok so I've found that the Alienware Graphics Amplifer is connected via PCIe 3.0 4x. If the laptop has a GTX 980M, what video card can I put in the Graphics Amplifer that will still outperform the 980M when running at PCIe 3.0 4x?

Ok, so secure erasing a Samsung XP941 can brick it.
What's the proper way to wipe it and restore performance if I've borked the Windows install on it?
Just to add; This isn't the first time this topic / question has been asked here. Just wanted to see if there was anything new regarding this.
I just got a Corsair H75 to use with my NCase. Haven't purchased new thermal paste though because I remember people telling me that the Shin Etsu stuff that's pre-applied on the Corsair liquid cooling kits is pretty good.
That still the case?

Anyone know where in the USA I can order 92mm white LED fans? I need them for a Noctua NH-U9B SE2. The included fans are great, but the brown color doesn't go with the theme of the case it's going in. If the case didn't have a window it would be fine, but it has a big window.
Anyone using the EVGA Z87 Stinger ITX board? Are EVGA boards still terrible?
Looking at the Hadron Air for a new build, but it looks like the best board to use with it is the Stinger. The Hadron has a raised area that sits exactly under the CPU socket of the Stinger.
