TLDR: start with TDC EDC PPT values, Then move on to curve optimizer with as much negative value you can push without sacrificing stability.

Didn’t do much of a research other than clicking your pcpp link, so I might be wrong. I can see that your case uses USB3.2 Gen1 TypeC and a regular USB A . That would mean you need two of the said Gen1 header and your motherboard only has one.

You might want to pick USB3.2 Gen1 to Gen2 header adapters if you want to have both USB A and USB C ports. 
 

It should be like a $5 adapter.

Even when my I am not using my GPU?

 

If you aren’t the one using it, something is. There is no reason for a graphics card to max out its current limit unless it’s doing something.

Your issue is not related to voltage. You are simply current/power limited by the bios of your graphics card.

Should I scrape the old glue off first

Yeah that usually has to happen. 
 

B7000 or T7000 glue I use for fixing phones might work here

Hey! I'm Andrew and I work as a technician at a repair shop, there has been an issue plaguing our store for a while and I'm hoping that coming here can help to solve our issue. A large part of the computers that come into the shop just need to be upgraded from an old and slow mechanical hard drive to an SSD. I have been trying to use Samsung 860 / 870 EVO SSDs for these upgrades and we use Sabrent's Acronis True Image tool with Sabrent's DS-UTC2 Docking station. I have tried to clone drives while they're plugged in through SATA but the outcome is no different. We have resorted to using Silicon Power SSDs since for some reason they work without issue every time. I don't like using the Silicon Power SSDs since they don't have a DRAM Cache but we haven't found any solution to this issue. Do you guys think this is a BIOS-related issue? Or maybe we should switch from Samsung to Crucial? Let me know what you guys think and if you need any more info!

I cloned hundreds of Samsung SSDs in the last year. Not a single problem. I use no name USB to SATA adapters and clonezilla for copying the entire disk/partition and use Samsungs own migration tool if I only need windows.

You may want to add more information about the problem you are facing. Error codes behavior etc.

We didnt even have any western brand cases here up until 7-8 years ago. lol. Life just goes on, its not a necessity.

Default options won’t net you any performance improvements. You can get some improvement but I personally don’t like to fuck with it. I used XanMod for a while on my shitty laptop it did make a difference in games but it didn’t even support ZFS lol.

120mm to 240mm would make a significant difference. In fact it’s the reason why nobody ever recommends 120mm aios unless they are very space restricted.

Personally I am not a fan of CM ML series let alone their 120mm variants. 

Speakers I used didn’t have any amps on the headphone jacks. I doubt you can power headphones that demanding by simply plugging into your speakers.

If your PSU allows, it seems like most noticeable gain in games would be installing a graphics card. As I don’t see one listed other than the APU. 
 

1080-1080ti is my go recommendation if you can find them cheap. Otherwise your budget is approximately 250 to 400USD. Which is significant for your build and personally I would attempt to spend as little as possible for this system and keep the rest for the upcoming build.

is windows only. Alternative would be jdownloader.

You can always seed Linux distributions using any other BitTorrent client if you have more bandwidth than you need.

Do you have working hostname resolve? Also spaces in SMB shares is a little problematic. Make sure this printer supports SMB2 and higher.

This depends on where you live.

Even with liquid metal, I found there was a fair amount of variation in the results, depending on the application. There is a bit of an art form to it. Your results just won't be nearly as bad with liquid metal, compared to thermal paste, even on a "bad application."

I also found making a tiny shim out of one maybe two layers of electrical tape on the PCB made a noticeable difference (I did have the glue removed). Thermal paste on core die pumps HARD. You can hardly get 3 months of use out of it. It was a constant maintenance operation for me lol

EDIT: DONT DO THAT, I FORGOT THAT I LAPPED THE IHS.

its super hard to do direct die thermal paste and use stock ihs as well. It would take me 10-12 attempts before I get it right. Results would vary 30c between good and bad mounts with my 3570K. Go liquid metal.

I am not sure afterburner records all of them and I cant test it out myself right now however, hwinfo also has logging to file feature

I have had bad luck with 7Z failing (which is what that "app" of your is using) if I were to close my screen to put my device to sleep.

Yes. I believe the problem is the combination of hyper-threading and high-boost clocks. Setting the motherboard power limits will stop the high-boost clocks on all-core loads, and single-core loads won't stress both hyper-threads in the same p-core, so that's okay too.

 

The issue is that sometimes there are only two or three active threads, and if they both end up on the same p-core for some reason, the power limits won't help. This happens rarely, but it does happen, but you maybe testing for half a day to catch one failure. Loading cores one at a time makes it fail much faster.

 

The problem seems to be triggered by "compiler-like" loads, that's why it fails when compiling shaders for games. In this test I use bootstrapping GCC because this is a large compile which puts the core under load for a long time (about 1 hour), and also because it actually builds the compiler twice and makes sure they are identical, which catches any CPU errors that are not severe enough to cause a crash.

Just curious, are you able to trigger crashes if you compile your project in windows? WSL2 kind of is cumbersome to deal with, I would love to come up with an simpler solution for troubleshooting sake (even though I dont even have any Intel CPUs).

I have been living under a rock, is this related to this?

This completely depends on the specs of the projector. What's it's max res, and is it actually set to said max res?

It doesnt. VGA is extremely susceptible to analog signal interference. Digital signals like from DP, HDMI and DVI will looks MUCH more crispy.

Absolutely VGA is garbage. Simply using a digital signal will make a noticeable impact.

Is it dead? I got it in August '23. Maybe return it and get my money back? I still got warranty.

looks like it.

Reduce fan speed. Removing sidepanels can help if you have an prebuilt or a case with bad ventilation.
