Please release the UE5 LAB2 files

Thanks for the updates. Let us know if RMA'd unit fixes your issues. I'm still stuck with random restarts and do not want to buy a new PSU just yet (waiting for Thor 1600 reviews).
-
I wouldn't recommend this as garbage.com domain exists and probably that email too.
-
I will try that. But remember, that these random reboots started after I had switched my GPU to 3090 so naturally the CPU most probably will not be the culprit here. EDIT: A little update if anyone is interested. I have now ran computer for 48 hours straight without it crashing (even with OC'd GPU) when running Furmark or launching Overwatch. The only thing I changed is I reseated all PSU side cables to different PCIe output ports and reseated GPU side cables. And placed external PC power cable to different wall socket. Unfortunately I did it all at the same time (to save time ) so I cannot say which of the reseating's fixed it. I still have the sense wire "fix". One thing I noticed after this is when I thought the crash should happen I saw GPU board power draw sudden increase only for a second. Default max TDP was 380W and it took about ~420W with this spike, so almost 10% over the max set power draw.
-
CPU thermal throttled heavily (expected because of the unrealistic load from P95) but the system runs fine. No restarts.
-
Just ran Furmark for 10 minutes. GPU temps stabled out on 68C. I'm fairly confident it is not related to thermals, because running benchmarks like Furmark, Timespy Extreme, Superposition are all stable. Even when increasing GPU power limits to test higher power draw, all benchmarks run fine and without any reboots. The only way to kind of (with varying chances of success) reproduce the issue is when my PC has been on (after restart) for more than a day and when I open Overwatch it instantly (sometimes even not reaching the menus) reboots without BSOD (and thus any dump files). Strange thing is, when I try to play or test it after the restart - everything runs fine and the game is not even maxing out my GPU or CPU. It is so weird. I have few times noticed the same behavior with MS Flight Simulator 2020 but with less "success".
-
Seems like the sense wire didn't help after all in my case. Random shutdowns are back. I noticed that it happens more often when computer has been running for at least a couple of days and when starting Overwatch (even crashes in the menu). Will try Windows reinstall also, but it seems to be more of a hardware than a software issue.
-
I actually had read that before Was the only thorough writeup in the internet of what sense wires actually are and do.
-
I removed sense pin and for now I have not experienced any random restarts. Can there be any negative side effects when removing the pin, or is it just a control for "smooth" voltage delivery?
-
Yes of course I will isolate it. Going to try this and contact Seasonic too and will report back here if this fixes it for me.
-
Thank you for this info! I am having the same exact trouble as Pwnstix mentioned above. I have Strix 3090 and prime TX-1000 (bought sept. 2020). So basically to kind of "fix" the issue I must unplug the 12V sense plug from PSU side. If I understand correctly I can apply the same pin layout for Seasonic Prime TX-1000 that is on jonnyGURU's page: jongerow.com/Corsair_pinouts/Corsair_pinout_AX_Platinum.htm ?
-
Are Seasonic PSU's bad with the new cards? Even the new (rebranded?) prime series?
-
Lets say I have Samsung 960 Pro one is 512GB the other one is 1TB. Is there any performance boost/difference when holding only Windows + some programs on 512GB and all the games on 1TB drive, instead of holding all the things on single 1TB SSD where both OP system and games are running off of?
