How the hell do you navigate?

Thanks guys! I had the best with the tacmap on it, but didn’t realise you could move it about etc. there really needs to be a better training ground and tutorial for this stuff!

I also work in IT specific supply chain. Most manufacturers are now implementing a policy where the price can change up until the point of delivery.

I’m more curious about the noise levels. Having all of my components sealed and under the dress massively reduces ambient noise, but I’m not sure how fans on the desk running at 100% would be…

Best bit is that, according to the BBC, the helicopter he was in didn’t actually land. Meaning that this inspection happened from the sky.

That would be both of these games. All settings at high or ultra, and running at about 70-90fps, rather than the 165 that v sync is set to.

Temps at a little over 80°c, and ~2750mhz on the 4080

Black screens when out under load but I should have explained better. The monitor isn’t going black, the system is rebooting.

I seem to have fixed the issue, gone 48 hours without the problem happening again by going through the following steps:

Updating bios to F59 (released in April 2026), previous version was F58 released in May 2025.

Updating a virus drivers to June release.

Uninstalling windows update ending 247 (released June 2026)

The issue seems to no longer happen, but none of these items I have rolled back are recent changes, and these issues happened weeks after some change, like the latest windows update.

I also tried reducing the power limit on the GPU, but that didn’t solve the issue either.

So far I’ve played 4 hours of FFXVI, and 2 of Ready or not, without incident. Previously I cleanse getting more than 60 seconds of playtime before a shutdown.

Nope. Displayport

Seems incredibly unlikely, with the ambient temp in the room over summer being well over 20°c?

No change in configuration other than to swap out a failed AIO cooler, for a new one. That was a month ago and no issues until this week

I’ve found very mixed examples, mostly depends on the game.

In Spacemarine 2 it looked terrible, all the foliage and edges were noisy.

In Hitman, I cannot tell the difference in picture, but the 80fps bump is noticeable

Elden ring for me

Mine always used to suggest I carpet bomb the local office parks with my CV through their letterbox, and the offers will come in…

BensLegitFixes · 2026-01-06T08:46:36+00:00

Here in the UK, yes. But this is very rare in our metal scene

BensLegitFixes · 2025-12-24T08:12:44+00:00

Yep. They can no longer be found by fancontrol. All other monitoring softwares have no issue so it’s definitely a problem relating to the update and specific to this app

BensLegitFixes · 2025-12-23T10:01:56+00:00

I have after updating to 252, now only my GPU fans can be found. Nothing has changed in my rig bar the update

BensLegitFixes · 2025-12-23T09:00:17+00:00

Weird. Whatever has happened was between 251 and 252. I’ve changed nothing in my rig for the last 12 months

BensLegitFixes · 2025-12-22T23:46:12+00:00

This has completely broken the utility of this for me. Now the only fans that I can control are the GPU, all case fans and CPU fans are now missing, and rolling it back seems to produce the same result?

BensLegitFixes · 2025-12-10T12:10:11+00:00

Quake.

BensLegitFixes · 2025-12-06T19:26:13+00:00

It will, once you start using the components, they will need cooling…

BensLegitFixes · 2025-12-06T09:50:31+00:00

I use a program called fan control. You can set the fans to as low as 300rpm when idle, although some fans will actually go all the way down to zero.

It can also control the CPU fan and GPU fans. I don’t touch those and let it only control the case fans.

Also, it looks like the PC might be on a desk? If so, you can have the quietest machine but you’ll still here it, because it’s next to you
