    Insufficient cooling?

    Hello everyone I put together a PC some time ago and noticed that the fans sporadically turn very high. Even without any significant load (e.g. downloading 3-4 large files via the browser). CPU ist https://www.galaxus.ch/de/s1/product/amd-ryzen-7-7800x3d-am5-420-ghz-8-core-prozessor-24667438 CPU cooler https://www.galaxus.ch/de/s1/product/be-quiet-dark-rock-4-15940-mm-cpu-kuehler-8192688 Mainboard https://www.galaxus.ch/de/s1/product/asus-prime-b650-plus-am5-amd-b650-atx-mainboard-22605358 Case https://www.galaxus.ch/de/s1/product/fractal-north-atx-matx-mini-itx-pc-gehaeuse-23351237 Airflow from front to back ensured. I reapplied the thermal paste, but it already looked well distributed. The cooler body itself is practically not warm, but you can feel how slightly heated air is dissipated by the fan. HWInfo shows package temperatures of 70-85° for the CPU! GPU (RTX 4070 Super, is normal at ~30°) I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to proceed. Do you have any tips?

    PCI Express (PCIe)

    Hi, would it be possible to add the actual number of ports for the product you're looking for to the "PCIe port" section of your computer product search, without having to check each product individually? At the moment, there's only the PCIe version (PCIe 2.0, PCIe 3.0, PCIe 4.0, PCIe 5.0), but not the type of port (x1, x2, x4, x8, x16) which indicates the theoretical maximum bandwidth speed, among other things. For example: PCIe of 5.0 x8 at a theoretical maximum bandwidth of 31.508 GB/s. PCIe 5.0 x16 with a theoretical maximum bandwidth of 63.015 GB/s. or a notification such as PCIe3.0x16 or PCIe4.0x8 or PCIe5.0x4, etc... Thanks in advance.

    Almost every delivery is now too late

    Is it just me? What's it like for you? Two of my last three deliveries were late. One was over 3 days late, and today's delivery didn't arrive, so we don't know exactly how long it will take. But all the deliveries said they would arrive tomorrow. I think that's really weak. THAT used to be Digitec's strength, that you could rely on the goods arriving as promised. Do I have to change dealer? Or am I just unlucky and everything is working smoothly for everyone else?

    Can NAS hard drives be used as desktop HDDs?

    Hello everyone. A similar question was asked here 10 years ago and google also has different results. I would like to know from you. Not to make the preface too long. NAS hard drives are endurance runners and are not designed to be switched on and off frequently (?) Can they be used as backup hard drives? To put it in a nutshell, occasionally copy large or even small amounts of data to the backup hard drive. Once the copying process is complete, I store the hard drive in a drawer. Over the course of the year, I connect it from time to time, also to move new data onto it or to delete data that is no longer required. Is all this also possible with a NAS drive? Greetings
