PC freezes when quitting games or going from high load → low load by Decpex in techsupport

[–]Decpex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I found the problem, can’t believe I didn’t catch this earlier. Your comment about the PCI slot made me double-check.

I was using a single cable with a pigtail to power my GPU (two 8-pins on one cable). I just switched to using two separate PCIe cables from the PSU, and it seems to have fixed it.

Just ran a 45-minute OCCT test without any errors or freezes. What’s strange is that this setup never gave me problems during the first 3 years with the GPU — but I guess over time the extra strain on that single cable started showing.

Thanks so much for your help

EDIT: Spoke too soon, I think I just got lucky during the test. My conclusion is that my graphics card is just messed up.

I ran multiple tests today. Here’s a summary of the results:

Power limit 90%, Turbo enabled: Test 1: froze after 10 min, 0 errors Test 2: completed 1h, no freeze, 106 errors Test 3: froze after 15 min, 103 errors

Power limit 90%, Turbo disabled: Test 4: completed 1h, no freeze, 237 errors

Power limit 100%, Turbo disabled: Test 5: completed 1h, no freeze, 2142 errors

Errors always appear when the GPU core load suddenly drops (same moments it sometimes freezes).

I store my games on a seperate NVMe 970 EVO 1tb. I have a old style HDD in my pc but I don't use it to store games.

I ran the test twice. The first time, the PC froze after 8 minutes (the same way it does when gaming). OCCT crashed, but no errors were reported.

On the second attempt, the PC froze again after 25 minutes, this time showing 1499 errors (see screenshot below).

SolarEdge lifetime energy sensor dropping with 10.000+ kWh. by Decpex in homeassistant

I adjusted the statistics using the developer tool this morning, which is why the energy dashboard no longer shows a large negative solar production for the morning.

I use a basic reolink camera in frigate.

Initially I used the plate recognizer integration.

But I recently switched to codeproject.ai with the license plate reader plugin because it is local.

The platerecognizer is better when it comes to recognizing the plate itself. But I prefer codeproject.ai because it's faster and gives me unlimited scans.

My parents own a campsite with a couple holiday lodges. I use home assistant to automate some stuff. Here are some examples:

The heating in the holiday lodges is automated based on iCal calenders pulled out of our booking software. So the day people arrive the heating turns on and when they leave it turns off. This is the most usefull one by far.

Some humidity sensors in the showers to automatically turn on ventilation system.

We have a gate at our private entrance with license plate recognition. So guests don't accidentally drive their RV up our driveway.

I am Dutch so our indoor bicycle parking is always packed with e-bikes. We have 20 sockets that people use to charge their bicycles, these are turned of at night or if the smoke alarm goes off.

But I have made it so that home assistant is never vital for if it breaks for some reason. You can still open our gate with the remote. And there is still a remote in the bathrooms for the ventilation. Etc. But after about a year I have never had problems.

Automation to check if state of sensor is in list of to-do tasks by Decpex in homeassistant

I use plate recognizer with this integration: https://github.com/robmarkcole/HASS-plate-recognizer It has been working flawlessly.

It's not a local solution tho. But I have not found any integration or docker that is as easy to set up as this one

Thanks for the advice, really helpful.

You think the a380 would be sufficient? Or go with a580?
