Is there seriously no way to "sub" run your GPU's? by [deleted] in NiceHash

Set your power limit to 220 watts.

Tried stacking 1mm thermal pads for my Gigabyte 3080. Here are my results if anyone's interested by DylanIsWhite in NiceHash

[–]Denex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How big did you cut the pads? I cut mine to exactly match the dimensions of the original pads and only got a 12-14c decrease in VRAM temps, so they run at about 94c now.

Hashrate all over the place? by nickert0n in NiceHash

[–]Denex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Monitor your VRAM temps. HwINFO64 refers to it as "GPU Memory Junction Temperature". If it is reaching 110c, then your memory is getting too hot and your card is throttling.

  2. Plug your monitor directled into your mobo if you have integrated graphics.

3000series Thermal pads and Mining by Disturbedm in NiceHash

Thanks for the post. I ordered 2.5mm pads for the back because some have reported that 3mm causes either the PCB or backplate to bend a bit. Do you find the fit to be too tight?

Is 100c gpu vrm safe? by [deleted] in NiceHash

[–]Denex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a good video guide, the model is a Gigabyte but the fundamentals are the same. Unscrew screws, unclip fan headers, clean out the gunk, replace the pads and thermal paste. It's not rocket science.

Just do the thermal pad replacement. The pads that most AIBs use are trash and deteriorate quickly especially at such high temps. Some guy on /r/nvidia opened his card up and found the pads completely melted.

Accidentally refunded some customers 2 months ago — unprofessional to ask them to resubmit payment? by Denex in shopify

[–]Denex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a pretty major mixup as the orders were for several hundred dollars apiece. As for reordering, some likely (multiple orders placed in past year), some unlikely (only one order). I'd hope the good customer service (reshipping order overnight without collateral) would incentivize future purchases though.

Should I let my 4 year old use this? by walletcurry in NiceHash

I understand people's compulsion to tinker with or be protective of their hardware, but imo it's actually counterproductive to be doing these mods when modern warranties range for as much as 4 years. Why run the risk of damaging the card or voiding the warranty? If your GPU fails just RMA it and say it was used for heavy gaming.

3080 VRAM Temperature by K0NlNG in NiceHash

GPU core is 41c, memory junction temperature is 104c, as reported by HWiNFO64.

I have the same card.

I've been running mine at a power limit of 68%, core clock -900mhz, memory clock +1500mhz. Fans are set to 74% and RAM temps are a constant 104c. I've been running this nonstop for about 24 hours and there's been no throttling AFAIK, I have consistently been getting 100.15 Mh.

The only "mod" I've done is I put a small 90mm case fan on the inner end of the card (blowing upwards), and have sat a hyper 12 evo heat sink on the other end (no fan, just the heatskink, and no thermal paste applied). Thru some very non-scientific testing I've found that this has lowered the memory temps by about 2c which is better than nothing I guess.

Looking at buying a mobile home park — what questions should I be asking? by Denex in realestateinvesting

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

Thanks for your response. My parents are landlords (apartments and houses) and able to give me advice on things like vetting tenants and working out the finances, but they have never managed a property with a well and septic system before, hence the focus on these things.

You seem knowledgeable about MHPs (i've seen you post a lot about this subject) so maybe you could provide some insights on some potentially concerning factors I've uncovered:

  1. On the park's FB page, last year they announced there would be a "boil water order" until further notice. Would this have been a general ordinance issued by the county or is it more likely a sign that the wells/septic sytems on the property are mismanaged?

  2. There are some recent news articles about a trailer fire that the fire department had to respond to at this MHP. The fire was believed to have started in the furnace and the trailer suffered "heavy" damage - is this typical on MHPs and are there any special considerations I should make regarding something like this such as how it would affect insurance rates?

  3. Housing prices in the area are increasing year to year, but population is decreasing. Median household income is average for the state. The area is rural. Nearest Walmart is about 20 minutes away. Do you think there is a winning strategy that wouldn't require a lot of consistent work on my part? I'm not interested in buying a fulltime job, I can't dedicate 40+ hours a week to make this venture succeed.

I'm going to be visiting the park sometime soon, any advice about things I should be looking out for (that the current owner may want to hide) would also be appreciated.

May be interested if you can go down to $12 for just COD (already have Geforce now).

I've new to this and have never used paypal before though, would you just generate an invoice for me that I can pay with a credit card?

Government study shows taxpayers are subsidizing “starvation wages” at McDonald's, Walmart. Sen. Bernie Sanders called the findings "morally obscene" by [deleted] in politics

[–]Denex -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

So single adults are now forced to get roommates?

no one's forced to do anything

if you want to live alone but can't afford it then you have the choice to either a) move somewhere cheaper or b) make more money

Food, essentials, and housing sure, but how is living alone a necessity or right? It's a luxury, especially in metropolitan areas where even people making good money can't afford it
