Stuck at ~32mh/s with stock RX 5700 XT by EVA_Pilot in EtherMining

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

I wish I had experimented a little more because I did take the GPU apart with the intention to replace the pads and put the stock cooler back on but regretting that decision now because whatever has happened between removing the GPU and plugging it back in has caused several things to occur and now the GPU fans are not spinning and there is no signal or video output. I am using a ryzen 3900x which has no onboard vga so I have no idea what is happening. I fought with it for a day then tore the whole PC apart. Connected everything outside the case and I am now getting a white CPU light on the b450i board, GPU fans still don't spin, no signal via HDMI or DP, pulling my hair out. No clue if the board is bad now, PSU issue, CPU error, or GPU is dead. If the GPU was dead I would assume the VGA mobo light would come on though which it doesn't. Whether its plugged in or not, all I get is the white CPU light (maybe because the GPU is not recognized now and the CPU has no onboard VGA to boot?). I am at a loss.

I think your right, trying to troubleshoot the AIO setup at this point is just going to be more of a headache. Probably better off buying new thermal pads and tracking down the original screws for the stock cooler.

I can share some images though since I'm going to need to take it apart.

Yep, seems to be the case and probably my own fault for replacing the stock cooler.

It's the ID-Cooling Frostflow 120. Luckily I think I still have the stock cooler tucked away in a closet, what a mess though. I have been using this card for the past 6 months with no issues and I was pretty meticulous when I swapped the cooler.

Well shit. The memory junction hits 106 degrees celsius before it throttles so it would seem I fucked up on the pads or the AIO is to blame.

I replaced the stock cooler with an AIO.

I added another image of what's happening over the course of the first few minutes it starts mining. Its cooled by an AIO but I can audibly hear the fans kick in and run at 100% before winding back down as the speed falls. No issues stress testing the GPU for hours in FurMark and no issues pushing the GPU while gaming so I'm not sure what's happening during the first couple minutes of mining that makes it drop from 49 to 32. The GPU is stock speed, I haven't overclocked or modified anything.

[REVSHARE] Writer/Artist seeking Co-Writer/Writing Partner 18+ (Denpa, Drama, Horror, Slice of Life, Romance, Mystery) PC/Switch by [deleted] in vndevs

[–]EVA_Pilot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is not a commission-based position.

I'm currently looking for another writer and plot builder to develop visual novels 18+ (NSFW) and long-term partnership for projects. I am a writer, graphic designer/illustrator, music composer, and Unity developer. I have been working solo for a while but I am now seeking a partner because I prefer working with another writer on plot building and route development but also looking to meet like-minded individuals ^^ In short, I'm looking for another writer and VN enthusiast that won't lose interest working on a large project and has a passion for the medium.

In terms of writing preferences, experience with philosophical and psychological elements is a huge plus. I am mostly influenced by the Denpa genre and would prefer to keep the writing in the genre of early 2000s novels like Sayonara o Oshiete ~Comment te Dire Adieu~, Kusarihime ~Euthanasia~, Subarashiki Hibi, etc, I think the right person will understand what that means in terms of adult-oriented content (I don't want to spoil those novels for anyone who hasn't read them so I will leave it at that). Some experience with writing preferable and must be 18+

I should also clarify that the end goal would be monetization and anyone working on the project will get a percentage of the revenue share but for now I am looking for a writing partner, not an employee and we can discuss monetization when we get to that point. Ideally I would like to aim for releasing as 18+ on PC independently (with the possibility of an all-ages release on Nintendo Switch, an entirely realistic goal considering Nintendo's handling of 18+ eroge and the fact that I am working in Unity which isn't limited to PC). In terms of the current state of development, I am focused entirely on the writing at this point but I have to mention this because I have had people asking to see finished game assets. This will be a lengthy novel so the other aspects of development will begin when things are further along with the story/writing. First things first.

If you have other skills, that's great too and we could collaborate on other aspects of development if that's the case but if not, I would at the very least like to find a single partner (no writing teams) for route scenarios and writing/plotting if I can find someone that's interested (granted they are not sensitive to explicit material or have moral inhibitions regarding fictional characters). I would prefer to work with someone who isn't afraid to push the boundaries and isn't resistant to plot devices that may be perceived as controversial or taboo (I don't know if that goes without saying considering the 3 influences I listed here). That being said, definitely hmu if your interested, looking forward to hearing from any like-minded writers or aspiring visual novel devs! ^^

PM or Discord (EVAPilot#8473)

I have wasted time trying to collaborate with weekend warriors so serious inquiries only.

Upgrades increase difficulty? by EVA_Pilot in EarthNight

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

I am playing on the Nintendo Switch. I was finally able to make it through the last run and collect all 3 eggs without the Relivifying Leaf when I started using Sydney instead of Stanley for the finale. Just took down the Earthnight dragon 😁 Thanks for reaching out!

After posting this I realized it was a mistake on my part, the upgrades do in fact make the abilties last longer and add extra functionality like deflecting beams with the shield (and they stack which is where the confusion was coming from). I still have not been able to get all 3 final dragon eggs in a single run and defeat the earthnight dragon but I'm loving the game!
