    According to pcgamebenchmark com your GPU is too weak for the minimum requirements. The game asks for a  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650
    But system requirements aren't always correct. Try running. It's free

    What? That doesn't make much sense. What were the engineers thinking?
     
    There are 2 pays to drive fans: PWM signal or DC modulation. PWM gives a pulsed signal that determines the fan speed, DC modulation lowers the voltage from 12V down to control the fan speed. If your mainboard is set for PWM it gives 12V VCC on Pin 2 which leads to full speed on a DC controlled 3-pin fan. 
     
    3-Pin Fan
    3 Yellow: TACH Signal
    2 Red: VCC +12V
    1 Black: GND
     
    4-Pin Fan
    4 Blue: PWM Signal (+5V pulsed)
    3 Green: TACH Signal
    2 Yellow: VCC +12V
    1 Black: GND
     
    Every mainboard I had in the past years had the option to switch between PWM and DC mode for the fan control. Obviously this doesn't mean that all have to have this option. Go to the website of your mobo manufacturer, download the manual as a PDF and just search for PWM. You WILL find information regarding the fans.

    but look at benchmarks and se why, also some chose it because of features even do ryzen has other cool features.
    but Optane being one of the bigger

    Reddit will add you to communities you're not a part of in some situations, like opening a post from that community or accidentally viewing it when in recommended communities. And most subreddits are sketchy when they're 10k or less users.

    Ajukrezi got a reaction from steelo in RC car Brushless motor question.   
    if its a programable ESC there is a launch control settings for it to reduce wheelspin.
    and 
    that could be a very big part of the issue
    you have ALOT of KV your 4000kv at 11.1 volt would go 40000rpm (iknow the motor controller will reduce it).
     
    but this means you can have alot lower geearing without missing out on speed but have plenty torque.
    the good news is pinion gears are cheap so i would start there.
     
    not an expert in this area at all but just upgraded a 1:10 from brushed to 4200kv brushless my self and it is a beast now. but i also have alot smaller pinion gear

    but regarding your setup do you only have 1 exhaust on the system? and how many intakes?
    air travels the easiest way so if the pipe restricts it to much it will just pop out of all cracks and stuff on the case.
    the bigger diamater pipe you use the less pressure you need to push it so even if you dont have a fan that fits in it a higher diamater pipe will help the exhaust.
    you can also add fans inside the pipe to help it .
    also the pipe itself will give off a fair amount of heat.
     
    all in all DBX10 seems to have the math down for the pipe

    Ajukrezi reacted to dbx10 in WEIRD IDEA TO VENT HEAT FROM PC TO HALLWAY   
    The problem here would be how much static pressure would you need to be pushing air through what essentially is a long tunnel. Fans able to do that on the PC end would be noisy. 

    I'm not saying it absolutely wouldn't work, and I'm no engineer, but I remember leaning about basic fluid dynamics and my brain hurts already.
    If we do back of the envelope two plus twos and use a known reference: plumbing stuff.
    YAY SMARTY LOOKY ON THE INTERNETY TIME 🙃

    A 120mm fan is 105mm in diameter from blade tip to blade tip, more or less 4 inches. YAY DUMB UNITS 🏫🔫🇺🇸 that means you can go get National Pipe Standard airflow loss equations off google. Woohoo.

    So basically a good, PRETTY, BEAUTIFULLY BROWN static pressure fan for a hopefully good PC pushes 2.34 mmH2O of static pressure. 1mmH2O is 0.00980665kPa so BADABING BADABOOM you now have NUMBERS. (0.022947561kPa to be exact)
     
    So. You put this in the number cruncher for NPS4 (4 inch pipe standard) and a pipe length of 2 meters: 
     

     
     
    Long story short, 6.50255 e-5 PSI, which I rounded to 0.00007 because I wanted to, translates to 0.00413685 kPa and we've established that a good 120mm fan pushes about 5 times that amount.

    So your answer is:

    YES, IT WORKY WORKY 🎊
    I did the math and now I'm tired.

    TL;DR

    Dear LTT, 
     
    As the title says, please stop the Apple hate. 
     
    This will go down a couple of years down the memory lane - and of course, everything I say here is just my personal opinion, which is subject to change if given the right arguments. 
     
    I've been a tech fan for as long as I know. That's how I found LTT channel, and I fell in love at first sight.
    Sometimes I would literally binge watch old videos ( published before I found it ) for hours.  
    I consider myself an old subscriber given that the sub count at the time was roughly around 1-2M. Now, why is this important? 
     
    Well, I've been a loyal follower ever since, and if I noticed and loved something - it's that Linus, and his staff, were often brutally honest and most of all fair when doing a review.
     
    I've probably been the biggest Apple hater in the world until recently. And I really mean that. Sometimes I would binge watch Louis Rossman's videos, "I hate Apple" videos, and such, just to fuel my hate and anger towards them and how they're overpriced, underpowered, etc... You know what those things are. 
    And that all started right here, at the LTT channel ( being the only one I watched in the beginning ). Now, admittedly, my personality kind of attributed to this, and over the years the hatred grew, being fueled by other videos aside from LTT. 

    One day, I decided to stop being the hater. I realised what I was doing and I needed a change. Somehow, conveniently, around that time, I stumbled upon the "It's time to stop hating Apple" video by Apple Explained - and let me tell you - I was very hesitant to watch it. My mind went something like this - "How on earth does someone make a video like this - it's impossible". I didn't want to watch it, but I did. 
    I opened my mind, watched the video, and I was left speechless. I felt ashamed for who I was. Oh yeah, did I mention that I actually never owned, or even held a newer iPhone ( at the time ) or any other Apple product? Yup. I hated products I never used. 

    Then, I started wondering about the things I prefer in tech - and I only looked at my behaviour, not the "facts" I would yell soo often.
    Example: I would bash Apple for not being able to see my wallpaper and arrange my icons the way I want it ( lack of customisation ). Then I realised that I literally don't move an app off my home screen(s) when it's installed, I would just leave them all there. Also, that I wouldn't ever change or look at my wallpaper. 
    The second example - "snappiness" and the fluid feeling of a device. Now, it's true that I never really owned a flagship, but I would often have the phone right below it ( usually Samsung's like A5, later A9 ). And while they were snappy, every so often they would just stutter, and it drove me crazy ( I know, it's not a big deal for many people, but it was for me ). 
    And one more thing.. Longevity - let's just say that 2 years were too old for a non flagship to a tech geek.
     
    This is when I realised that my entire tech "opinion" was based on LTT videos ( and alike ), but my tech habits and preferences were vastly different. 
     
    The Apple hate was gone at this point, and I started wondering - maybe Apple devices are the right devices for me ( not everyone ).
    At this time I was rocking a Windows / Linux dual boot laptop - and boy did it suck. I am a developer, by the way, and because of that, what I needed was a Unix based OS, but also programs like Photoshop, Illustrator, etc... Point being, dual boot was my only option ( or so I thought ). 
     
    One day, being one of a Startup founders, I had a meeting. I was supposed to video call my friend ( the second founder ) so that he could join us, because he couldn't make it in person. 
    Long story short, my mic and my camera were malfunctioning, he wasn't able to join, and I kind of got embarrassed in front of those people. 
    Also, one of them had a MacBook, and I fell in love with the design as soon as I saw it. 
     
    This is when I realised that the MacOS is probably the OS for me, solving my needs for apps, but most of all a very new found need - reliability.  
    I bought a maxed out 2012 15" Non-retina MacBook Pro, and man... I was stunned. I still am stunned how good this machine is. How awesome MacOS is. 
    The trackpad and the spotlight alone are enough of a reason to never look back again. I will not mention build quality. The standby battery optimisation. The Apple Ecosystem integration. 
    The list can go on forever. I'm simply in love with this machine. 
     
    Slowly but surely, I went from an Apple hater to an Apple sheep. I replaced my phone with an iPhone, and started watching Apple videos, and started defending Apple from people like I was myself. 
    Now, I remember what I was like, and I still think Apple does some things "bad" ( not bad, but just in the way that we don't prefer or understand it ). But, every tech company does!
     
    Okay, sorry, I might've made this a bit too long. But I had to mention all of this, since I'm kind of expecting a flood of people just jumping on me how I'm an Apple sheep, someone who doesn't care about tech, someone stupid, etc... I really needed to clarify where I'm coming from. 
     
    It's time to come back to LTT videos. 
    It was at this point, when it all changed, and when I got A LOT more familiar with Apple as a company, and their products, that I realised what LTT wasn't actually that fair and honest when doing a review - at least when it comes to Apple products. 
     
    Let me explain on a perfect example - 2018 iPad Pro. 
     
    I felt like that video carried a message - "Do not buy the iPad Pro. It's stupid, pointless, overpriced. Its lack of mouse support is a terrible thing and Apple is just soo funny for even making it."
    Now step back: That's a message about the best tablet in the world. Period. Nothing even comes remotely close to it, and anyone saying otherwise is just spiteful or wrong.  
    What happens next? Apple releases the iPadOS, adds ( a not really serious ) mouse support - Boom! 
    You've probably watched that video, and how LTT bashed on Apple, again, and if not, it's basically a couple of minutes saying - "Well it's nice that they added this, so now it's a little less pointless, BUT OMG LOOK AT THAT MOUSE SUPPORT ITS SOO BAD". 
    I'm exaggerating, but not by much.
     
    And the most recent event, and the reason why I even decided to write all of this, being the iPad Pro 2020 release. 
    It's a very minor refresh, true. But again, there are a couple of minutes devoted only to the ( still kind of meh ) mouse support. 
     
    So, LTT, let me answer a couple of questions you asked. You actually explicitly asked - Who needs this? Please write us down.
     
    Business owners, students, artists, gamers ( yes, mobile gaming is a thing regardless of the fact that it's laughable compared to PC ), designers, etc... 
    And the iPad is designed to be used primarly with touch input - even though you somehow forget to mention just how smooth and easy ( and FUN ) it is to navigate with all the gestures, snappiness, etc... 
    And I don't see in any videos how you're complaining about the sorry excuse of a touch input in Windows laptops.  
     
    This is the one of the proofs of your unfairness towards Apple. And it's totally okay to be biased - everyone is. 
    But it's unfair to not mention the awesome things about Apple products, and point out and rant about the bad ones and make it seem like they're garbage. 
     
    Lastly, I just want to add one small thing - the Apple products may not have the best specs, but they have something I have never felt ( to this extent ) in any other device - the fluid experience of using an ecosystem of devices that work SOO WELL with each other.
    Also, just how natural and intuitive the MacOS feels is still stunning for me to this day. 
     
    So, here we are at the end. I'm not trying to tell you how you should think, or run your channel. It's your opinion, and it's your right to do whatever you want and feel like. 
    But as someone who defended you through the "stupid" faces, "Corporate douche", or "Funny little guy", and personally looks up to you and highly values your opinions, I am asking you to stop the Apple hate trend. It's unfair, and I'm starting to feel like it's ruining for me the other ( non-Apple ) videos you make.  
     
    Do as you will.

    @M4C1XCan you post some screenshots that show how you have ThrottleStop setup?  
     
    Your log file shows that when your CPU is throttling, it is because the short term turbo power limit (PL2) is being reduced to 10 Watts which is far below where it should be.  Check to see if you have this installed,
     
    Intel Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Driver
     
    That driver can cause this problem.  Search Google for how to get rid of it.
     
    Try enabling the ThrottleStop FIVR Disable and Lock Turbo Power Limits feature.  This can help with this problem without having to disable and delete the Intel driver.  You will need to first install the RwDrv.sys file into your ThrottleStop folder before checking this option.
