Master PC's Achievements

I needed to make an adjustment to my fan curve for my LC III 360 AIO in my ROG Strix Z790-F BIOS. However, when I finished setting the curve and exited the BIOS, I was greeted by a BSOD shortly, with this code 0x000021a. This happened like twice, and it's whenever I adjusted the fan curve. Other than that, I never get the Blue screen if I never touched the fan curve settings. Apart from the fan curve BSOD problem, my machine runs like a charm. Any fix to this?

Best Plan for my Current Unit if I migrate overseas?
Master PC replied to Master PC's topic in General Discussion
Aight, thanks for the suggestion. However, I upgraded my CPU and GPU not so long ago, and now that you mentioned it, maybe the SSD, CPU, and GPU will be boxed and packed in a luggage or carryon, while the rest be sold? I have i9-14900K and RTX4080 Super, so I can't see them sold that soon. -
Best Plan for my Current Unit if I migrate overseas?

There's quite a chance that my family, or myself for the sake of work, may migrate in a matter of years or less. I live in Taiwan, but there's a possibility I may move to Singapore (for my dad's businesses there). Those who moved from country to country, especially those who have high-end PC's like I do, some advice is appreciated. I am struggling whether to: 1) Spend some money to ship the entire unit out. 2) Take out the most expensive and smaller components (which is the CPU, and GPU, SSD, and RAM) and place them in a luggage, while getting the rest of the new components once settled down. Of course, I always keep boxes with me. 3) Sell the entire unit locally and start over from scratch once settled down. I just could not bear the thought of leaving my gaming + workstation beast behind. Which one is the best course of action?

My colleague is building a machine mainly for gaming and machine learning. CPU an i7-14700K. His initial plan was to get a 4070Super, but for the sake of ML, he decided that he get a better graphics instead, so he’s struggling whether to get a 4070Ti-Super or 4080Super. The 4070TS prices better at the sacrifice of a bit of performance, while the 4080S has better quality but with the whopping cost. which do you suggest him? Gaming wise he plays at 1440p. He has enough for the 4080S.

In times of an earthquake or any natural disaster, how would you keep your computer safe? Soneone told me to put the unit on the floow and cover it with a thick blanket or something, but I'm afraid of ESD, so I was planning to put it on the floor, in a small enough space so it wouldn't topple. What is the best appraoch you would suggest me to keep it safe? Because I live in Taiwan, and if you saw the news of the quake that happened this morning in my time, I needed to take preventive measures. My rig is safe as I type.

Buyer CPU Warranty Question
Master PC replied to Master PC's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Understood. However, the buyer just got back to me again: The CPU manufacturer date is week 47 of 2021, and the buyer's friend told him the warranty would expire this year, as per AMD's Warranty time. But I thought the warranty begins upon purchase of the CPU which was in 2022, and warranty should end next year. -
I sold my Ryzen 9 5900X and ROG Crosshair VIII Hero X570 to a buyer. However, I lost the original AMD packaging and proof of purchase. At least, he has the serial number and production number (the manufacture date) of the chip. If he runs into problems with the chip, will the SN and PN be enough for the vendors there to accept requests? I live in Taiwan BTW, so will the policies differ by country?

Air Compressor or Vacuum? Glass Bits inside Case!
Master PC replied to Master PC's topic in Cases and Mods
Thanks. Because people say using a vacuum is not safe for the components so I was a bit skeptical. -
So my glass panel of my Corsair 5000X smashed to bits when I opened it. Managed to clean everything up, except for the glass bits that was trapped in the narrow space near by where the glass panel is closed. More glass bits went into the hold at the bottom of the case, close to the fans, and a bit more on the area above the PSU and under the GPU. Should I use a vacuum cleaner to suck up the debris, or air compressor instead?

Thanks bro. I did just that, the motherboard wont be affected by any glass shards right?

My Corsair 5000X's glass panel of the case shattered this morning. Most of the mess was on the table and floor, and some glass bits went inside the case. I was able to fish out most, if not, all of the shards in the case. A couple of glass bits was by the GPU connector of the motherboard, but I managed to remove them (there may be tiny bits still). However. I discovered that some tiny tiny bits of glass is lodged between the GPU's backplate and the card itself. The computer still runs beautifully normal, usual game, rendering, desktop activities etc, with no obvious issues. Those who had similar mishaps like me, did anything happen days later? Do I need to be all that worried about the tiny glass bits inside the GPU or on the Motherboard that it will affect their health?
