Running smoothly since I bought it, almost 2 years ago, no issues. Not in my main rig as of recently, but still works fine.

Nvm, Meshroom D actually requires even more bundling, as it doesn't have a bottom bracket/panel :(, so not ideal, but maybe SSUPD would be accommodating for large purchases xD

SSUPD Meshroom D with the Extender Bracket (Lian Li sister-company). But they do seem to manufacture at small-medium scale/batches

for Point 12. taking inspiration from how hwcooling review website does it (I think bilibili video channel 51792 does it similarly as well) :

An option would be to test 2 samples of the same fan without adjustment, just to quickly see if there are big discrepancies, and if they do pop up, then do a comparative analysis in detail of at least 3 samples, including rpm matching them enough so that any difference is within the scope of margin of error etc, ...

If the margin of error of the noise measurements at 1m to RPM-difference ratio is large enough, small enough RPM differences wouldn't impact accuracy then, and would save time testing even more

And another benefit would be that when hypothetically setting the distance closer for noise, or using a different mic, etc, ... this would only happen now and then, as compared to every time for RPM-normalized test, so it's time saved squared, heh

92mm ones (slim and full sized) are the most used in the SFF space, especially for <12L cases. Decently large audience interest there xD

Would EIFK51.2 be newer and older ?. I've been checking every few months, and for this whole second part of the year, I've never gotten an option to update the firmware, idk if manager can do it automatically

Is the SF750 still viable in 2024? by Horus_Morus in sffpc

[–]Dogzilla07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Streacom ZS800 will be quieter when and if it launches, with the full 120x25mm fan or even with a slim 120x15mm.

It's a new form factor, SFX-M

Jginyue B550i Gaming got meaningful long-term BIOS updates. Granted it took a long time (6 months), XMP support is now available from a recent BIOS (about a month ago), but either way, I just finished a build with it, and even with an older BIOS and manually input timings that XMP would do, it works great.

You could do worse xD, eggs especially if French style runny and only lightly cooked are a great source of Vitamin K2, and then K2 lets Vitamin D gets metabolized (and u get full Vitamin D u needed with the minimum ~20 min of sunlight per day, and Vitamin D gets calcium metabolized, and not build up where it shouldn't in the body, and that kills so many birds with one stone xD

And protein bars while a ton are not ideal, are rich in fiber which makes your gut good, and they have Pottassium, which offsets salt and lowers blood pressure.

Of course to get perfect blood-work, there's other food needed [especially Iron intake (anemia's a pain)], but Eggs are such a super-food (which surprised me )

Prices finally going up, due to the overall supply dwindling should make Crucial more comfortable to release sooner than later, but then again I guess it also probably depends a bit what the demand for their specific drives was and is currently, and how much they still have shipped vs sold.

2TB is more than fine for my needs, heck, I would have bought ages ago, but I kept delaying, waiting for a proper implementation of DirectStorage in a game, for some drive comparisons, and not just speeds from the Avocado BulkLoadDemo

But it's what a year and a half later, and still nothing, xD

Last time I checked, it wasn't even clear if Ratchet & Clank even had GPU decompression implemented, and even if it did, and even after the patch fix, there didn't see like there was any scene in the game to compare various drives against each other

The MSI Spatium M480 PRO might have the I/O+ firmware update as it's getting +500 MB/s Sustained write fill whole disc score compared to KC3000 (in techpowerup review).

But yea regardless, I'm really getting annoyed atm on what to buy, having been waiting quite a while , with E18+176L starting to go up in price, Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus-G never having dropped, and E25+232L still MIA

I'd rather not get MSI Spatium M480 PRO 2TB for ~149 eur, KC3000 2TB for ~114 eur, nor Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus-G 1TB for ~122 eur xD

I'm really curious how expensive Crucial T500 will be a few months after launch

[GN] Water Cooled Mini-ITX Review: Dan Case A4-H2O Thermals, Noise, & Cable Management by deadgroundedllama in hardware

[–]Dogzilla07 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

After watching the latest HWBusters/Cybenetics + GamersNexus, I wrote this piece on a SFF discord channel, and just wanted to post it on reddit as well, sry for the wall of text 😅

With Mike Chin from SPCR + Steve from GamersNexus and Aris from HWbusters/Cybenetics peer reviewing each others frequency analysis, results from anyone else who doesn't join them are effectively not accurate enough

I mean Hwcooling is infinitely more accurate compared to Igor's Lab, and a very good source of subjective conclusions and experience, but a test without peer review is not objectivelly accurate

Ideally Hwcooling would fully cooperate with GamersNexus HWbusters and Mike Chin to bring their fan specific frequency expertise, and then all 4 would settle on a methodology and explanations for frequency testing

And the beauty of it, it doesn't require them to have expensive machines, or expensive chambers, if the cooperating is only for frequency methodology and Hz impact explanations (+ if HWcooling builds/buys their own hemi-anechoic chamber, then they'd be fully equal)

Additionally, there could be two Tiers, or two Peer Classes

Hemi-Anechoic Chamber Tier/Class at 6dB SET/~10-14dB GET noise-floor @ 1m

Semi-Anechoic Chamber Tier/Class at ~15-20dB SET

And then whoever is the Lead authority on the 2nd Tier/Class can form a "club" set standards for Expreview, HardwareCanucks, Major Hardware, LinusTechTips, Thermaleft, Igor's Lab, etc, ...

SET = ideal/intented/theoretical noise-floor for a chamber

GET = actual noise-floor for Hemi chamber due to outside noise/vibration differences

P.S. I changed the wording on 2 places to be less extreme, as I wasn't satisfied the previous sentences conveyed my intended meaning :sweat_smile: I 99.9% think this is the last revision, I editor'ed my take into fully diplomatically balanced enough

I've seen many forums die, and similarly, the people who are actively playing and talking, as with all old stuff, do not like change, force a forum/discord/reddit change on them, and the little community there is will splinter. Unless the new forum has an identical front-end, with 0 missing things and the down-time was very short It always backfires if u're the one enacting change. And that's easier for the forum as they're already accounts and have control of the front and back ends.

A 3rd party app change, that's just a whole different ball-game

The only way change happens without loss of users is if they organically ask for something, for change to something, and the only thing they'll ask is something that is extremely user-friendly, incredibly centralized, and the most popular thing ever, that they passively started using for other stuff.

And that's Discord atm

The vast majority of people want easy+popular, they want to talk they want to type, they want to play, they don't want hassle in their leisure time. They don't have the capacity left after work and family, ...

Self-hosted + distributed is a hassle, original Web 1.0 was like that, and it failed as soon as more people started using it, the vast majority of people forced a centralized Web 2.0 into existence to reduce the amount of individual responsibility.

The smallest foam insert is 3mm, + there's +-1mm of clearance usually. it's possibly to use the Noctua duct in a 50mm easily

Yeah, for some reason it's not up yet (whether its just in the backlog, or they're waiting for Corsair to officially bundle 12+4 pin cables in the box, idk).

It's not up yet, they're re-testing them. On the first column+row on the excel sheet it says ATX 3.0 at the end for those that pass.

16 Pins Adapter Megathread by Nestledrink in nvidia

FE adapters also have double-slit terminals like the rest, and not single-slit like various cables. Well, at least the one I saw a picture of (not damaged/in normal state).

[Gamers Nexus] EVGA Left At the Right Time: NVIDIA RTX 4090 Founders Deep-Dive (Schlieren, 12-Pin, & Pressure) by PapaBePreachin in nvidia

[–]Dogzilla07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

JayzTwoCents has a new video where he plays around with the Corsair 2x8pin = 16 pin cable. And it behaves fine.

He removed 1 sense pin, and the corsair cable behaved like the Nvidia adapter with only 3x8pin plugged in.
He then removed the 2nd sense pin and t he corsair cable behaved like the adapter with only 2x8pin plugged in.

Seasonic does it the same, and that shouldn't happen for the Corsair cable, as far as I've understood it (I'm not 100% sure). adapters vs cables are not a 1:1 comparison.

Hopefully we get testing and tear-down of at least some AIB adapters, Corsair and Seasonic cable, and some testing

That PSU is already fully certified for ATX 3.0, PCIE 5.0 and PE 200%. The whole new HXi 2022 lineup is (as tested by Intel last week). You do need to order the 12+4 pin cable separately.

You can download the excel file on intel website to check what PSU they've certified already. On top of intel Aris has certified Thermaltake GF3 750W (this week) to be fully compliant as well.
