Did you bump the cooler or make some bios changes?

Sounds like the system is unstable, try opening the bios "press del or f2 while system is booting up" and press f5 or the reset to default button" Save and exit "generally the f10 key" and see if that helped

Context: Ender 5 plus with E3D V6 all metal hotend installed, been having this weird issue where one side of the print comes out weird, happens when using prusa slicer and cura "left side" basically transparent from the amount of surface holes and there's a bubble where the skin separated from the infil "right side" noticeable compression of the layers... What I think is happening: I think the printer is trying to compensate using mesh bed leveling even though I have ABL turned off

I lowered my temps to 190 and 50 with a line width of 0.38 and it solved the weird problem

I'm running 200 for the nozle and 60 for the bed, ive never changed the bed Temps but I tried from 180 to 220 on the nozzle and 200 seemed to be the best from my test objects, is there a way I can tell if it's too hot/cold?

Ya I don't know where my photos went, ill attach them here, its not a leveling issue, I use a BLTouch and also leveled the bed manually so there shouldn't be a level issue, but for sure most of the issues I've seen seem to be related to thay or z offset: it seems to be an overextrusion issue but nothing I change seems to help only harm thr print in other ways

I've recently picked up an Ender 3 pro and an Ender 5 Plus, the Ender 5 prints very very well and I've had no issues with it, but this Ender 3 seems to be nothing but fuss , my consistent issue is these weird bottom layers, they are as the photos attached show, and I can't seem to find the issue causing these oddities, nor have I had much luck keeping the corners down without using a raft, Advice??? And this included my pla doesn't seem to like this glass bed, any recommendations besides using glue to increase adhesion?

Not a difference with the side panel off, just louder... plus there is a 140mm fan throwing air right at it... and as far as I can tell the fan curve is fine, ramping up to 100% at around 70° Completely open air the card seems to hit around 69° but that's still pretty darn hot for a strix card isnt it? The front panel has some intake issues I think, it has 2x 140mm fans in it and only a total of about 9 square inches of intake space Water cooling is next, but 400$ is a touch expensive for me

Its been many months since I got my strix gtx 1080 used and lo' and behold it was somthing some dude messed with... the screws holding it on? Ya they had EVGA warenty stickers on them... I plugged it in, installed the drivers and ya, it's a 1080 so far so good, it's pretty quiet... another good thing So I ran a benchmark, and holy satan's beard it was 89° before a half hour I thought that was pretty dang hot and so I pulled it apart very carefully removed all the thermal compound, measured the thickness of the thermal pads, cut out new ones and reapplied some high quality thermal compound to the die... And still, it runs at a sustained 87-85 C when I'm gaming on anything demanding and it's pretty dang loud... I would say louder than my founders 1070 I had before it, it's a well ventilated case (I'll attach photos) but I just cant get it to run cooler, please someone tell me if I'm just an idiot for thinking that it's running a little toasty at 87° "Sorry for the image being of my whole system I'm not at home when making this post so I dont have any other photos until I get back" There is about 1" of space under the card for air and a 140mm fan tossing air at it

I'm not sure if 18$ fans are really bottom of the barrel, lol... but no I cant have another fan under the rad because of the nature of the case... however I can and do have one under the card blowing air up into the card

Right, I've finally managed to snag an ASUS 1080 Strix card... now the problem is that some idiot that had it before me decided to remove the cooler and void the warranty and still sold the card as "new"... now I've got some thermal problems, as soon as i got it and played for an hour the card went up to 82C and throttled back down to 1680mhz and the fans are running 70 percent... now I've pulled off the cooler "the guy put a screw from an EVGA 1080 in the thing FYI" and replaced the thermal paste with some MX4 and the temps dropped to around 70 degrees when under decent load... but I feel like it could be better, if there are any further suggestions anyone has short of going to an EK water-cooling solution... I'm all ears.

Thanks mate

Alright, so I just bought a 2560x1080 144hz monitor from newegg, and was wondering if a GTX 1070 would be enough horsepower to run most games at high or ultra at 144hz with this new beast of a monitor
