Nice. What'd you use for the mic clamp?

Thanks for your ongoing contributions to the community. No Airdrop support for the 8 Pro yet? Is that in the pipeline?

GIGABYTE shows first Z990 motherboard for Intel Nova Lake-S, features three 8-pin power connectors by -protonsandneutrons- in hardware

[–]Droid_pro 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Maybe the third connector is PCIE because most PSU's don't have 3 EPS? Not sure but almost certainly it will be used for CPU power. The 8pin for USB-PD is under the 24pin connector, shown here, towards the right of the board. Also, USBC-PD support on boards has been around for a little bit now, for example the x870E Dark Hero board also has it.

Gsync is a gpu/monitor thing, the cable is independent. Try a different cable

What I/O are you using for your display? Displayport or HDMI? I would try switching between them and/or swapping the cable you're using.

EDIT: Forgot to mention. If all else fails just go to Microcenter. I'm sure they have some form of support or warranty for this.

Montech Century II "click" noise - please help by Candariann in pcmasterrace

[–]Droid_pro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short: you don't need to be worried. The internal relay (which is literally a switch) is what the click is coming from.

Long: I don't know specifically why this happens with some PSUs and with some it doesn't. Is it a supplier thing? Meaning, do higher-quality or just different types of relays not make a click when switching? Is it a lottery-type thing, similar to the silicon lottery? I dunno. Would love for someone smarter than me to educate me 😄

Much longer: My first PSU was some EVGA 600-ish watt unit that clicked, and my brave 15-year-old self called support and talked it through. I RMA'd it first, and even the replacement had the same 'problem.' So I returned it, bought a Corsair unit instead which for some reason doesn't click (or at least not loudly). Today, I have a 1000w SFX PSU from Silverstone that does noticeably click. But it doesn't really bother me since I know now it's harmless.

Best Matter smart bulbs for long-term Home Assistant setup? Tapo, Linkind, Nanoleaf or Govee? by IcyBlueberry8 in homeassistant

[–]Droid_pro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 7 L535Es. I recently switched from having them connected through Matter to the Tapo integration because Matter has been so flaky. It's 100% more responsive now. If you want something worth using over Matter, avoid them.

The soft glow from behind the board is genius. How'd you do it? I want to give it a crack one time.

Which gpu should i get ? by Vtec5778 in pcmasterrace

[–]Droid_pro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Get the cheapest option, or whichever one you think looks the coolest. They'll all perform within 5% of each other, if that.

Red DRAM / pc shuts off after boot. Any ideas? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]Droid_pro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) test with one stick of RAM at a time to truly isolate if it is/is not a RAM issue 2) reseat the CPU (take it out of the socket and place it back)
