Sort of, those are Karwei (our Home Depot equivalent) Rana cabinet knobs. M4 thread and ironically enough the caps included with Koolance QD3 fittings fit on them. I normally use them as motherboard spacers for bench setups.

I did thing. So I got a free computer with a P55 board and i5-750 right?

Cue me installing a HD7850, realizing the ShitrectCUII cooler on that card is complete crap and having a Define 7 XL spare that used to house the Better Retro Rig... let's just say that P55 setup now has a 4.1 GHz overclock, a EK Supremacy MX block and a Titan Black. Runs STALKER Anomaly maxed out.

Next step is reinstalling Win7 on a 950 Pro I installed just now. I tried cloning the drive from the 850 Evo that's in it right now but I keep getting 7B BSOD upon boot.

It probably needs the Windows nvme driver installed before you clone it. IIRC 7B is inaccessible boot device, i.e. no nvme driver or whatever Windows calls it.

Didn't bother and simply reinstalled Windows. Barely had anything on the 850 to begin with. (STALKER Call of The Zone and a unmodded Anomaly install that I did move over, yay WinPE)

Well the 950 Pro didn't work out, it somehow breaks booting XP.

The clusterfuck in question. Why the P14 on the Titan? This board has a 3+1 phase VRM with a tiny heatsink :skull:

Someone in my city listed a 980 Ti Strix with ****ered fans (I suspect it's ex-mining) for €40 and I bought it lol. Deshrouded the card, repasted it, and now it does 1480/2025.

Surprisingly clean under the heatsink though.
