    Relations reacted to Kinda Bottlenecked in Ordered the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 - should I do a mini review?   
    You'd suprised to find that its extremely difficult to cool an oc'd 5900x on air even with the noctua nhd15. 
    Further more you live near the equator so ambient temps do not help. 5900x are mostly faulty 5950x so power draw is also still pretty high. 
     
    For air cooling. As long as the cooler is able to keep temps down on stock boosts I would consider that a success. Any more than that, consider a 360mm aio. 
     
    The fans do suffer from some unfortunate hum like the arctic p12s but thankfully the heatsink is not the bottleneck.

    Perhaps Linus can dig into his Mags and gives us his opinion? After all, he too has his share of media/data issues. 
    RED has a forum as well, called REDUSER, and the circle of users there seem to share the sentiment of the 'patent holder'.

    RED Mini Mags are a huge ripoff Jinni.Tech which also sells their own Mags exposed them in their most recent video.
    They really just buy CONSUMER mSata SSDs from Micron(aka. Crucial) and convert them from mSata to a so-called Dock Connector. And that's how to increase the price by 10 times.
    You can even upgrade them yourself If you really want to. What's even sketchier is that the Mini-Mag has an acclaimed capacity of 512Gb but If you look on the actual SSD it only says 480Gb. (Isn't that fraud?)
    What's also kinda shady is that they call it "Made in USA" "Custom Firmware developed by RED" "Special Drives".
    1. Made in USA: Not true Micron produces their SSDs in China/Singapore. The casing might be produced in the USA and the Parts assembled in the USA.
    2. Custom Firmware developed by RED: jinni.tech bought the same Drive with the official Micron firmware on it and it worked flawlessly. He even reflashed the firmware on the one that was in the Mini Mag
    3. Special Drives: Yeah, Micron mSata SSDs aren't really special drives just because you put an adapter on them. They also have the Retail SKU addition "AB" which stands for Standard Feature Set and "YY" which means "Standard Customer Designator"
    So Linus, yikes I remember that post where you bought 6 960Gb Mini Mags must hurt to know how much you overpaid for them, but hey as long as they work.

    The video won't embed because the link format is wrong.
     
     
    I'd be interested in Linus taking a look at this. I'd place some more trust in him since I don't believe RED has any affiliation with him and since he also isn't in the market of making a competing product. Seems like some scumbaggery on RED's part if it's indeed true, and what this guy shows is kind of damning.

    Relations got a reaction from DSD27 in Fan speed responds to CPU LOAD NOT TEMP!   
    Hi LTT forums!
    It's that time once again, where I'm out of options and the LTT community's magic might just help me.

    Here's the situation.
     
    I have a CoolerMaster Seidon 240M in my build. It works great, but the fans are hell'a loud. Solution? Asus AI Suit 3 (Fan Xpert 3). So i went to set up my fan curves to my liking, and played around with some OC etc etc, then as I was running P95, I noticed that regardless what I set my fan speeds to, the fans will just spin at 100% when there is a load on the CPU. 
     
    Now you can imagine how terrifying is that.  So I went to play around with the software, hoping something will keep the fans from becoming demon possessed, Fix RPM mode - nope, increase fan spin up time - nope, selecting auto fan off -  nope, the only thing that works is if I set my temperature source to MOTHERBOARD instead of CPU. Doesn't really help does it. 
     
    Here's my system :
    i5 4690k @4.7GHZ
    8GB DDR3 running at 1860 XMP
    Windows 10 x64
    Asus Z97M-plus
    Leadtek WIndforce GTX970
    CM Seidon 240M
     
    My Pump is set to the CPU fan header, that's set to fix RPM mode and always runs at 100%. My rad fans are joint to a Fan Spliter and that's connected to Chassis Fan 2 (CHA-2). BIOS fan settings are all left at default (Optimized default)
     
    Dont ask me to consult the asus forums or contact Raja @ ROG, I messaged him 7 months ago and he has yet to reply me, same goes to the forums, 17 views, all mine. 
     
    Open to any suggestions and any work arounds. 
    Regards,
    Relations.
     
    EDIT : My Idle temps are around 35C and under P95 they're around 70C.

    Well, I guess, that will take some time ^^
    Here are few things you should learn:
    * Using Linux
    * Knowing the internals of the Linux Kernel, at least the basics.
    * Kernel Modules
    * More Linux
    * Some android-specific things, that I don't know
    * GIT(Most people forget about that; It's important!)
    * Root your phone, try some things with the shell. You get to know more about android this way!
     
    But the first thing you should do, when you try to port a custom ROM to your device, is check, if there's any familiar device out there, with the same SoC, and try to make it run on your Device. You may need some kind of serial connection for the phone, to debug the kernel & display drivers to get started.
     
    This is a really hard thing though and you, even if it's unlikely, may brick your device!
    If your device is slow, you may just want to uninstall all the TouchWiz junk! You can do that if you're rooted - You could also overclock your device, and do some other tweaks!
     
     
     
    Well, the Kernel sources from Samsung aren't complete - Things like the graphics module aren't open source afaik.
    Docker requires a working device tree, as far as I see(First time I see that software, so I could be wrong...)
    The S3 Mini kernel sources could be a good starting point for learning how porting works...
     
     
    But I'm not a ROM Developer/Porter. For somemore advanced advice check out XDA.
