  1. Sorry if I post in the wrong place. When I was trying to view one user's profile, this showed up. Does that mean the user is banned?
  2. The OC setting I use in F@H is 1860MHz@0.919v +750mem for GPU, RAM setting is the same. I've been using these settings in the past 6 months. At first, I ran F@H with maximum OC, but it wasn't stable. F@H sometimes showed some errors but never caused PC to restart. Anyway, I tuned down the OC, and the machine ran fine ever since until recently. I will try swapping the PSU if the problem persists.
  3. Just restarting. These OC settings were fine in the past 8 months, but I will try tuning it down and see what happens. There is a RM750x in my other PC, dunno if the wattage is enough for my current build.
  4. As title, I am trying to find what component is causing my PC to randomly restart.
  5. My 8 month-old PX-1000 just tripped few days ago while I was running F@H. Gpu is undervolted Gigabyte 3090.
  6. When comparing two PSUs, how do I determine which psu is better if both are in the same tier?
  7. I deep clean my pc every month. I would take out the Gpu and unmount Cpu cooler every time I clean my pc. Is that too much? Will the pcie connector on Gpu be worn out by doing so?
  8. Hi, I own a PX-1000 PSU.

    I have a question regarding hybrid mode(semi-passive mode).

    Is it safe to use hybrid mode when the PSU is facing down?

      Does the PSU have ventilation when it's facing down? Many cases have holes and ventilation there, but some odd ones don't.

      Yes, my case is Lian-Li Lancool II Mesh.

      The included manual recommends that PSU should face up if the hybrid mode is on, but the manual doesn't say whether it is safe to use the hybrid mode when PSU is facing down.

      Hi,

       

      You can safely use your PSU in Hybrid mode when the fan is facing down.

       

      Thank you.

      Best regards,

  9. I assume you are talking about Thermalright customer support? Oh, they did replied, saying that the copper base is normal. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  10. Thermalright le grand macho RT. I actually had installed this cooler on my cpu but replaced it with D15 due to its poor performance. It is a miracle that my cpu still works lol
  11. As title, I have not ever seen a such uneven coldplate. I know that a slight convexity is to increase mounting pressure, but this is just jarring.
  12. Despite its lower performance, I am using le grand macho RT right now actually. It looks way better than dual tower coolers, but that's just my opinion. I wonder how much heat your cpu produces when testing TS140P and LGMRT. Maybe LGMRT handles high heat load better? My CPU produces 165~180w under full load. Nonetheless, both Thermalright coolers look really good, but I wish their performances were better Edit: I accidentally scratched the fin stack of TS140P, I am going to cry in the corner right now. Edit 2: grammar, I was sleepy when typing this reply
  13. It real depends on what you want to do with your cpu. My stock 10700K consumes 170w when running folding@home or rendering. Most 140mm single tower coolers will have no issue handling such heatload. (Although the one I have almost thermal throttled) When throwing some ultra unrealistic heatload like OCCT AVX small data set at the Cpu, even Noctua D15 can't handle such heatload (close to 230w).
  14. I own one actually. I just need an excuse to buy a new heatsink haha. I was bothered by the noise from A15, maybe I should just change the fans instead of whole cooler.
