  1. That is true but luckily I was able to swap out serval ddr5 and possible sway a few from getting it right now, because how bad would it be you pay double on ebay and one of the sticks are bad. I haven't had good luck with ebay..do I get my money yea, but wait almost 3months once due to the seller fighting back it was a pain and some out there can't afford to buy another set in the mean time so learning people's experiences are helpful. But if you want to adopt to DDR5 you need to be an enthusiast and willing to accept those challenges if they arise.
  2. The microcenter near me has been getting a steady supply in for a week as I have been to microcenter atleast 6 times returning items due to not being able to have my z690 boot into windows...right now I will say don't get an Asus z690-F as I couldn't even get into bios unless I flashback but then was having memory errors. Now have a MSI Carbon (what I wanted in the first). Even MC was having issues with their hand picked pc by Intel Asus z690-f. Look at it wrong blue screen. Anyways on my MSI mobo I was using the G.skill T5 5600mhz and couldn't boot into windows with xmp on. Ended up firing one of the sticks. So got the basic 64gig Crucial kit and haven't had any issues in 48hours. So IMO they need to work on the memory side but I have heard/seen they have been flashing the wrong XMP profiles on the memory. Who knows.
  3. Pi network doesn't use power to mine..apparently never read up on how it works..it uses the internet like router mining..but the more people in your group the better the security. Its still in beta.
  4. So I have had issues with my 3090 as well that I have taken the route of putting a heatsink with high conductive thermal pads as well has a fan duct to direct air right over the backplate. It has allowed it to stop throttling and allowed it to clock higher. When I can get a waterblock for my card I will be getting one as long as it as a active backplate as well.
  5. So I have a gigabyte Aorus 3090 Master and as I play games everything is fine. But when I am not using my card for gaming I am having it mine crypto. Some of you probably disagree and some will not. But all and all I am having an issue with the card throttling. I have heard the memory gets hot and as for it being a 3090 is has memory modules on the back. I used a thermal laser to get temp and at one spot it was reading 70c even though the gpu was at nice 49c maxed out. So I have figured out why it was throttling(I hope), but now my question is should I try to RMA it or is this something that is common? I have found some issues on it and right now I have a 40mm fan blowing on it to see if it will help.
  6. and if I do all that laptop needs a new board then right?
  7. I am working on a friends laptop and the screen is tearing/freezing. How can I fix this issue? He just using it for web browsing . I also attached some pictures of the issue.
  8. Also ambient temp matters as well too. Normally my room is 21c but when it started getting hot outside it would become 30c and when I stress test at 30c ambient I hit 90+ but at 21c I hit high 70s- low 80's. So depending on how hot your room is that is a factor as well. Also are you using your AIO as a intake or exhaust? I recommend intake over exhaust.
  9. At what usage when playing gta v? Mine is around 54c..(I have a 9900k as well. But a custom waterloop with 360mm rad space total though.) Thinking of possibly upgrading my 120 to a 360.
