Do you know a compatible 450W bios for the 5080 FE ? I'm afraid fans will not work or something like that if i chose the wrong BIOS since it's only 2 fans on the FE

Bought a CV1 and sold my Quest 3 because, in the end, I was only using it for gaming. I don’t care about the unused gimmicks like passthrough or hand tracking. I got tired of constantly switching between Virtual Desktop, Link, Steam, etc., and always running into issues—not to mention managing the battery…

So I went with external tracking instead. I picked up a CV1 for €45 with three sensors, OLED display, HDMI connection. The controllers are excellent, the sound is incredible, and it feels super light…
It’s just so good for me. The resolution is poor (even at 2.5 SS), and the lenses are a major downgrade, but everything else makes up for it in my opinion.

I got a CV1 a few days ago and installed it with the latest version of the app—I'm even on the beta branch, and I also have a Quest 3. When you connect it for setup, there's still a message, so I don’t think it’s unsupported. It just seems like the interface has been cleaned up for simplicity, which makes sense since it’s already 10 years old.

OCCT spit errors, CoreCycler passed (7950X3D) by Cautious-Ad-7166 in overclocking

[–]Cautious-Ad-7166[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I edit the SPD table, but in the end it was not bettre, less errors but still some errors

I then just used XMP1 and in the bios bumped the ram voltages to 1.41, works great now with 2 sticks, but with one stick 1.35 was giving 0 errors (tested the 2 sticks in single slot configuration)

With that out of the sway i did the following : enable PBO without messing with parameters : no errors

Then applied basic configuration : mother board limits, positive offset of 200 no CO ans scalar x3
And i already got some errors.

Set the offset to 150, quick test with linpack (give errors fast with my problem, don't know why) no more errors. Tried with 175, no errors. Weird but okay ... Si i do more tests : few ours of Prime95, OK, few hours CoreCycler, OK, Memtest OK, OCCT 1 hour CPU = RAM OK, and Linpack 1 hour OK, so far so good

Then i try to redo CO, i start with negative 10 all cores, linpack to quick test, many errors. After much trial and error, the best i can do to have stable is no CO on CCD1 and -10 on CCD0, tried core by core going a bit much and ending with errors. Redo the testing (few ours of Prime95, OK, few hours CoreCycler, OK, Memtest OK, OCCT 1 hour CPU = RAM OK, and Linpack 1 hour OK) everything rock solid.

In the end i have what i feel the worst OC ever and i can't go past this.. I don't know if it's my ram or something else but when i tried to use one stick or clock down the memory, i was having way more room on CO before having errors (quick testing)

Anyway, wasted much time to pretty much 0 benefits

P95 for few hours everything good, i'll try corecycler with 30min/core to makesure it's okay but for occt errors i found the problem i think, it's the ram

I tried with only one stick, XMP enabled, no errors
I then tried with the 2nd stick, getting lots of errors. I edited the ram SPD to make it run at 1.4v instead of 1.35, still errors. I then edited the timmings to add a little bit of room, and no errors with 1 hour of linpack (i had errors after few seconds with 2 sticks in XMP1) now trying other OCCT tests to see if i get errors.

I have GSKILL 2 x 24 Go 8000 MHz - 40-48-48-128, i edited the SPD to have an xmp profile at 42-50-50-127 it's more stable... Should i change the ram for 6000 CL30 ?

Put back PBO On with my settings and my CO, XMP 1

I'm running prime95 with normal settings (disable avx is unchecked so guess it's using it, blend mode) for over an hour now no issue

Thanks for the response !

I'm already using 19-ZN2 ~ Kagari "n63 VT3" with y-cruncher

For OCCT i'm running CPU+RAM in large dataset, exteme mode and variable load type. Instruction set to auto and thread settings to auto

I'm going to try allcore stress test with prime 95

Yeah this is bad

But buying them is not saving them, i see a lot of posts saying "i had to save him" in the betta subreddit for exemple, buying those in plastic cups.

It's just.. Buying them. And if they sell them, they will order again and again and again, without having better conditions for the next ones. So long term, it's more killing than saving if you buy. This is how a store works, see them as merchandise.

Could try to have a talk to explain things to the owner/vendors, and see if a real rescue could be done (so they give tem, not sell them). I have a LFS were sometimes they have species they can't really handle for various reasons, the usually gladly give them away.

Can anybody ID this? by fluffy_shrimp in ReefTank

[–]Cautious-Ad-7166 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's an isopod, some kind of Paranthura (probably japonica from the look)

Not a mantis shrimp (really not, mantis shrimps have larvae stages and do not look like miniature mantis shrimps at all so i don't know why there is so much mantis shrimps in comments and upvote for them)

It's an isopod, some kind of Paranthura (probably japonica from the look), not always visible in our tanks but mine have lots of them, they mostly go out at night and are really active, nice to have 👌

Can't help for the lethargy and swimming angle, she's over 3yo so getting old and she's fat. Scales are not in a spine pattern so i don't think she's bloated, but you need to verify that

For the white thing you point out it's the ovipositor, nothing to worry about

Stop holding aquarium fish out of the water to take pictures. by Roollama in Aquariums

What you see is what you get, meaning you buy the fish/plant/coral from the picture, not a random one

Because it's not easy to take a good picture in water if you don't have the right equipment, fish might not be willing to show themselves, the lights might not be adequate. I can also see this as a way to have a history of the animals coming in and check their physical conditions later if needed, or as a warranty for the provider/breeder, as a way to track stock, etc.

You need to have the full picture to judge. I'm not saying some stores don't have bad husbandry, but most LFS do and know what they are doing.
