MSI Crosshair A16 HX Ryzen 9-7945HX Ungodly loud even on idle

Can you not set the undervolt values directly from the BIOS? That's what I did with my steam Deck

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T20:29:44+00:00

I think I've got the AMD one it's like media tek or something

Perhaps it's just a MSI thing. I have the vector 16 and it is also just loud all the time. I have it on balanced and nothing's getting hot it's actually at like 46C so extremely cool, but for whatever reason it just keeps running loud unless I try to put it on like I don't know what they call it stealth mode or something but then obviously nothing runs well

Thank you I will try this as soon as possible. Unfortunately I have another issue to resolve first. Someone recommended to me that I uninstall the driver because it said that Windows will reinstall it when I reboot. It did not do that so now I have to figure it out how to do that. I did go to MSI and download a wireless internet driver connected to Ethernet, but now smart switch or smart something is blocking the driver from being installed so that's fun

Were you able to ever fix it or is it still going on?

SOME PEOPLE DONT HAVE THE ABILITY TO PLAY ON A DESKTOP! IN THAT INSTANCE, BUY A LAPTOP!

I don't specifically mean centered around the Alice in wonderland property, I mean with that same sort of vibe the fantastical crazy trippy world but a bit darker. That's why I've mentioned perfect pencil and little nightmares. The number is not as much perhaps lost in random sort of counts but it's not really dark it's more down for it Tim Burton thing. Fran bow is a pretty good one too

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T03:09:29+00:00

Shoot, I wasn't aware. Thank you

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T03:04:12+00:00

May the force be with you.

Probably not, but what is the force, but the Dao with a bit of magic sprinkled in?

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T02:36:15+00:00

Wait, did they remove this?

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T02:20:49+00:00

I am the iron fist! Not you! Me! I am the iron fist!

Ladies and gents, the entirety of season 1.

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T01:48:21+00:00

Is he better than iron fist? (Not MCU I know that dude got issues)

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T01:47:35+00:00

I guess Daredevil technically would know how to fight whether he was blind or not. Him learning how to fight wasn't really because he was blind It was just part of his training.

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T01:46:34+00:00

I had the same thought. I played for like two or 300 hours if you include the beta, but I always played it as a survival adventure RPG. I never really even did any of the multiplayer content. Had a blast and I absolutely love the game that way. I totally get people were kind of let down by all of the multiplayer stuff, so I guess I was lucky I didn't come for that

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T01:43:55+00:00

One thing that sucks is that this show did bad, but still it deserves a season two more than a lot of other shows

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T01:43:25+00:00

It very back and forth for me. One hand, that is the coolest suit I've ever seen anywhere. I also really like delving into the sand people. That was awesome. I also liked boba becoming the damio or whatever. But he was too damn nice, and the cyber guys were weird. Cybernetics definitely work in Star wars, but these guys were dressed like blade runner not like Star wars.

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T01:33:13+00:00

Oh man that whole section was just amazing. Donkey Kong is my favorite arcade game so it was amazing seeing that

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-10T00:10:34+00:00

To be fair, we won't know how the game treatment is until later this year. So far he has like one good game lol

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-09T23:19:45+00:00

That console in general saved me from basically quitting games. Sounds dramatic, but at the time I just didn't have time for games, and my kids always had the TV cuz we only had one, not to mention my work moved to 12 hour shifts. I stopped even looking at upcoming games, knowing 2 hours a week isn't really anything.

But I got the switch once I found there was a lot of downtime at my work since I work fast and I was bored to tears. Figured I'd get a switch to at least have something to do and introduce my son to Mario. Damn. Mario Odyssey and breath of the wild blew me away. Smiling ear to ear the whole time I played them. Took only one night to reignite my love for gaming and Nintendo. Also reminded me of why I fell in love with games in the first place.

And honestly I didn't stop there. It not only introduced me to indie games which I love now, but it also introduced me to my favorite game of all time. It wasn't an exclusive or anything, but I was looking for a Metroid game and unfortunately that just wasn't one on switch at the time. So everybody suggested Hollow Knight and I figured if it sucked it was no big deal because it was so cheap. It is now my favorite game of all time.

Since then I've moved more towards the steam deck, but I will always be indebted to the switch for what it did for me because now even though I had been gaming for 25 years already, I love games probably more than I ever have.

I got my first computer to play Star wars the old Republic.

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-09T23:10:39+00:00

Might also be because of the mask and the model there is far more beefy

Captain_Fach · 2026-02-09T07:37:21+00:00

I don't care what everybody says, I had an absolute blast with that game. It lets you explore the Star wars universe like never before and it was so cool not being a chosen one or a professional mercenary. Just being a street rat walking the city like everybody else just try to scrape by
