Any advice where can I get M.2 screw as it doesn't come with Samsung 850 EVO M.2 SSD?

For read-only task, UV400 is a good budget choice. If you have tasks that writes a lot of data, avoid budget TLC drive.

yeah sometimes i just wonder why people can invest a lot in things and stuff them into the cpu, but they don't get at least an affordable ups for additional protections.

human minds are really something.

Because UPS battery doesn't last long.

Ok so I've decided to put heatsinks on my 960 EVO... screw the warranty  rclxm9.gif

Max temp so far is 41c, compared to 50c before. CrystalDiskMark shows slight improvement in performance, though that might be due to caching (just installed Windows when i first ran the benchmark, been running for a week or so now.) Honestly, it's near impossible to tell the differrence when it comes to real world usage, cause NVMe is so damn fast.

Now I pray nothing happens to my SSD before the warranty ends  biggrin.gif

Not pretty but who gives a sh!t...

I'd blame the manufacturers who put M.2 slot at such a position (above or below the graphics card slot). ranting.gif
Only the premium ones put at the bottom right section.

Bought this adaptor for my Samsung 950 Pro 512GB
Before using the adapter: 50°C vmad.gif
After using the adapter: 36°C thumbup.gif

PS: Both temperatures is when my system on idle, no air-conditioner in the room
