NeptuneIX

yeah i returned the monitor, the problem is w/ the monitor. Its mostly with VA panels. I have a vg279q right now and i dont have brigthenss flickering, brightness flickering w/ freesync should be a known thing because it happens on most VAs...

yeah ok buddy, i got a stock SO OLD that it was from the first batch of the v2 fx and you want me to believe that 2020 batches actually exist and that you can buy them(without naming your info of all things)? Alright now i can see why some people dislike the list concept, its bullshit like this that fucks people over and i now realise i put too much trust into you and this list in general

and im repeating myself as well, show me the info that shows that GX riotoro enigma g2s exist All youve been saying is that you have "info" then prove it to me

show me this info, because me and other people ive seen on PCPP that bought this unit like a few weeks ago all got focus plus, i wouldnt trust the person that gave you this "info" after what just transpired

prove it, i see no proof saying that the "new" batches(which probably wont exist) of the enigma g2 actually exist, Knowing its manufacturing date? How the fuck would i know its manufacturing date? The serial code shows the manufacturing date (aka 1804, 2018 april) and i can only see it when i get it in real life(and thats exactly how i found out).

do i have to copy paste what i literally just said? If they supplied the supplier with EARLY 2018 ONES, do you really really think that they actually have newer batches with ZERO evidence and a ton of evidence supporting the opposite? I asked the supplier and they didnt have a manufacturing date, they have no info about that and if riotoro isnt telling them that means no supplier/retailer has info about the manufacturing date.

oh yeah if i got one from literally early 2018 and other people that have gotten it on PCPP have focus plus as well ofc it just means that i got unlucky! You seriously think if they actually manufactured them actively i'd be getting an early 2018 batch??? Like if this is what they supply to suppliers i can guarantee you its going to be the same everywhere else, common sense really, seeing as they supplied the supplier w/ early 2018 ones lmao... And this is how i got kinda screwed, i wont have an issue unless i run a vega 56/64 but the fact is that i got a focus plus when this list showed me that it was gonna be an A, including reassurance that it was going to be fine from you

i literally bought one and as you can see its not a focus gx... i posted pics of the cables which had the in built capacitor thingies Plus the first 4 numbers of the serial code are prolly the date cus it says 1804, 4th month of 2018 Reviewers had a similar 1804 date or 1709 or even 1704 Hell even looking at PCPP reviews of it ppl mention that the cables are very thick(which is what they are on the focus plus cus of in built capacitors on the cables making them very hard to maneuver)

by the way u should drag down the riotoro enigma g2 to A- since as you can see they arent based on the new focus revision lol, hell mines from april 2018(the first batch of the v2 focus plus)

Wdym by new revision?

Lol no its bs, i dont think riotoro can/needs to change that, even then its apparently a "max cooling mode" which would imply itd ramp up the fan to max but pressing the button a few times didnt result that at all, so its just BS or its worded wrong on their site.

but theres no good way to tell which mode is set Like when the button is pushed in what does that mean? Edit: Nvm i saw on the amazon QNA page for the foucs plus platinum and a seasonic rep said this " Hi there, Thank you for your question. Actually the Hybrid fanless mode is when the button is in the out position. If pushed in, the fan will be engaged and spin continuously. We have documentation in our FAQ that explains this function in more detail. - https://knowledge.seasonic.com/article/9-focus-plus-fan-control-button. Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns." So ye i just pushed the button in

Can i press the button even when the PC is on?

Meh idk, its done 3 times now. Once when i applied xmp and exited bios, once when i restart for chipset driver installation and this morning. Honestly it doesn't bother me i was just curious tbh lol As for the PSU the cables are really thick lol, like it was so hard to bend them it was honestly a pain setting it all up... Btw which mode is the best? There's a button at the back but i accidentally clicked it a bunch when i was setting it up, i decided to have the button turned off(yknow when its protruding out)

Restart? No no, it doesnt randomly restart. It's completely fine in windows and works at the XMP timings fine, i dont rly mind if it shuts down and turns itself on when i restart/turn it on sometimes

oh yeah, i DO have new ram as well so it might just be that

@Juular So like im using the riotoro enigma g2 PSU. Sometimes when i restart my pc(its only happened 2 times, once when i turned on xmp and once when i restarted for chipset driver) it shuts itself down completely then after like 2-3 seconds it turns itself on and it's normal. Also this morning when i powered it on after like 4 seconds it turned itself off and then after 2-3 seconds it turned itself on and boom normal operation. Sometimes it doesnt do this sometimes it does(in the 3 situations i just mentioned) I really wanna know why it happens, its completely fine in windows.

Yeah... especially considering I've spoken to multiple people that have actually used vega cards and other 'high transient' cards with the focus plus PSUs in a discord I frequent.(Btw I did search through this forum and I only saw one person complaining about focus plus shutdowns w/ his vega after the revision was released in april 2018, that was in like may 2018 but for all we know he might've gotten an older revision because usually older stocks are still widely sold even after a new revision is launched) Rly wish someone would test it to debunk it once and for all haha

oh ok, i wish a reviewer would actually test the 2018 versions to actually confirm that it was fixed back then tbh. Because rn there's no solid proof that it wasn't actually fixed back in 2018, or let's just say if it WASN'T fixed then we don't have conclusive proof that its fixed on the new FOCUS ones either

what's the diff between the fixed revisions of focus plus in 2018 and the FM btw

5 year warranty here... would've been a 7 year warranty if i had gotten the core gc... dunno i just feel disappointed

sigh i dunno... i still think its not a widespread problem but having this layer of worry over my shoulder is just gonna be a pain from now on...

I doubt you have them at hand, I certainly haven't seen anyone mentioning that they have it personally even after googling, but even if you have seen some i wouldn't treat it as concrete proof that it's an issue thats directly connected to this specific line of PSUs(heck, the gigabyte vegas used to fail all the time), like a minority experiencing issue(which may be a separate issue than what was happening w/ the focus plus) can happen on ANY psu. Tbh i see your point of view but this is just my opinion. Btw its 100% a fact that mine's a focus plus right

I mean yea i get what you say... but have there been actual reports of people having this issue AFTER the early 2018 fixes, i certainly havent seen people say that

Tbh im just speculating here but based on the response ive gotten from people that have actually used seasonic focus plus i think that there wasn't really that big of an issue to begin with... Like it probably happened on a small group of people and then seasonic fixed it in early 2018, but people in this forum seem really adamant that it's still an issue on all focus plus which i dont think it is judging by the statements of the people that have used the focus plus with these 'high transient' GPUs... Tbh i dont think ive seen anyone complain about having such an issue w/ the seasonic focus plus at all, it was only the statement made by seasonic that riled people up lol
