LOST TALE

The used rx 6xxx series looked like the best value. you can probably get a rx 6800 on kijiji for 300-350 CAD if the seller still has them. This bad boy will do 4k120 max settings in most games, has 16GB of vram and the asus version has an overkill cooler. otherwise I recommend this as a starting point: https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu_value.html

you can have the clean look of my 56 vega. I heard it's good for <8gb ai

yes so I think the TR fan had higher static pressure and more blades but the cpu temp was higher at very roughly the same rpm/noise/ which brings me to think that a flow optimized fan might do better with my heatsink.

so which one is better for heatsink cooling?

the one that made weird noise and stopped running overnight was this one: Thermalright TL-C12CW btw, My ryzen 2600 stabilized at 95C while mining at 88% usage with the fan not spinning. Very impressive. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0BW733WTN?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details maybe it was a bad unit. but that also icnreases the risk I get a good enough but defective unit that will fail later but sooner.

Yeah I have a lot of experience with voltage control. I always found the idea of applying force intermittently sus. I guess the high frequency of pwm pulses doesn't matter. I had them for 14$ on amazon because they were out of stock on the first merchant. I also noticed this version had higher rpm than the pst version.

ARCTIC F12 PWM PST https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B08WH3XV6G/ref=ewc_pr_img_1?smid=A1K2SUXU652HJB&psc=1 noctua nf-p12 redux https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07CG2PGY6/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1Z5H6ZGWCMTNX&psc=1 Maybe I should purchase nothing and continue to use the fan that came with my h212 evo. It had some rattling 2 months ago but now it's working fine. I'm just worried it might die. Even if it does my cpu can survive in passive cooling and then with a 140mm until I buy a replacement then. comments: this video shows artcic f12 is better at 35dba than noctua. but noctua claims max 25dba I also ordered this but it made some weird noise once and then failed overnight so I returned it. maybe I should order another? https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0BW733WTN?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dZ-ZqsTAjw&t=375s&pp=ygU5Tm9jdHVhIE5GLVAxMiByZWR1eCByZXZpZXcgdnMgYXJ0Y2ljIGYxMiBwc3QgaGVhdHNpbmsgZmFu

No.

I read the patch notes and if there's nothing I need I stay behind. I let you be the beta testers. A long time ago during the 600 series nvidia released a driver that reportedly caused damage to cards and artifacting.

anyway I think adding more fans of the same noise level barely increases noise given the exponential nature of dba perceived volume

download msi afterburner and increase the fan speed manually.

actually, I'm sure more fans allows you to get more cfm/ dba level.

use passmark not this bottleneck crap.

Don't use the oven (in the winter)!!! it's wasting power!! /using electric heating for whole home.

1200x10mv I booted in bios to check and while I remember 1200 its because the measure is in units of (10mv)

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0BW733WTN/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 the one below has almost double the static pressure https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=8_130&item_id=204814 but I heard you can't compare sp ratings except within brands. I couldn't find a video form GN on this. I also imagine if I ever needed to upgrade my cooler, that bigger 140mm fan coolers would be more price efficient. but then I saw some assassin coolers with 120m rank pretty high. so then I shouldnt invest so much in a 120mm.

User files, install locations and appdata are kept on another drive and linked so in the registry. Are there mobo+cpu unique things in the registry? if we import the registry than all programs will be installed without having to reinstall everything?

open performance monitor. Standby ram is not used in the 80% calculation but is actually used. So 50% usage is more like 100% usage

the fan curve goes up to 1200mv. That should be enough. edit: 12000mv* it would have reached that max at 80C so unless the mobo is defective it would have sent 12000mv. I've used voltage control with this mobo for a while, higher voltages would be pushed to the fans as programmed and this never happened.

https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0BW733WTN?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I mine crypto overnight. Two mornings I come and found it at 0 rpm. I give it a wiggle and it spins back to life. Besdies the cpu was at 90+C Should I return it or see fi it happens in pwm mode? It was using voltage fan curve control when it failed.

I upgraded to 4k 144hz. If this is something that you've been waiting 12 years for, I would do it. Assuming not, I would look at amd + new display combo and if its still more expensive, look at at the difference and if its worth it for the future (depending on if you want to keep your monitor forever) I'm sure you can find an rx 6800 for 250$US. You cnab prob fidn a 1440p144hz for 200US gl

I replaced the two side switches on my G pro wired. but when I drop 10 cm by accident, one switch loses contact so I ahve to resolder. That switch has a contact point where the metal circle around the hole was removed with some of the green band which I believe is the circuit - about 2mm of it. So I moved the solder to it to make it work. How can I make this better? I noticed I had quite a blob of solder to achieve this and I could put less so that its inertia doesn't break the solder when the mouse hits the table. On the other hand if I remove the sodler with the vaccum pump, it might remove more of the circuit. However I could heat up and mvoe the solder away from it before removing the solder and then apply less the second time. What do you guys think?

The video shows the motor is controlled by alternating the voltage from 0 to 100%

What's pulsing then?

Do you have a source?
