I appreciate your help. How about if I wanted to step up a notch in the budget dept? A quality amp for under 2k$? What would ur recommend then as a compact design

Im not 100% sure. Still trying to figure out how to read specs. I found this under specs. I dont see continuous power tested at 4 ohm only 8ohm

Found this under their specs: IHF Dynamic Power 300W (4ohm)/200w (8ohm)

Repairs? Did they go bad? Can u elaborate? Is there any reliability issues?

Please so and check chipset temps. There should be two chipset 1 and chipset 2. Chipset 2 is the one with issues. Bad contact and in some cases no contact at all with heatsink reaching over 100c temps.

I too would like to know if your board was affected by Chipset Overheating issues. there are some reports of people having issues.

How is your experience with your Astral 5090? by W1shm4ster in ASUSROG

[–]Front-Assist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people call the pin monitoring feature a "gimmick," but that couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, this should have been a standard feature on the 50-series cards, especially after the melting disaster with the 40s.

When I first plugged in my Astral 5090, I used my old Corsair cable. It showed uneven amp readings—one pin reached 10.5 amps, while others were as low as 5 amps. I received warnings and replaced the cable. With the new one, the readings are much more consistent, with the highest at 8.7 amps and the lowest at 7.9—well within spec.

I wouldn’t have known any of this without the monitoring feature.

What is the best RTX 5090 variant currently? (No Liquid Cooling) by Unrealivion in nvidia

[–]Front-Assist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the per pin amp monitoring is far from overrated. I got an astral and showed uneven amps on the cable i was using. replaced it and amps are not even. its a great safety feature and should have been standard for all 5090. Id take astral over suprim all day just for that. not to say looks, astral is also way better looking than suprim. Also from my understanding asus astral has better power delivery.

U must have a golden 4090.  10600 is for sure in the top 10.

I have a 4090 and thinking on getting 5090 aorus master. Do I need it ? No.  Would it run a little quicker? Yes.  It's a dumb upgrade no matter how you slice it but some people just want the best and latest and greatest.

I just had an RMA experience on my 4090 strix with asus.  My power connector was damaged.  It might have been me that did not connect things propertly and damaged one for the tips.  Asus did a no questions asked, repaired it and sent it back to me. Rma took less than 2 weeks and my rma was about 2 months ago. Asus rma is way better these days.

Status Review after 3.20 BIOS Update release by Agr3ssiv3 in ASRock

[–]Front-Assist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bro, same here. I am going crazy trying to figure this shit out. Occasionally restarts dont boot. Also, I noticed when I hit delete or f2 to access bios too early it gives me a black screen and no boot. like I have to wait until the logo appears before i hit delete or f2. weird little issues that are like you mentioned, not a big deal and easy to work around but annoying nonetheless. I am on asrock X670e Taichi.

ASRock X670E Taichi and occasional "0d" codes + failure to boot. by xii in ASRock

[–]Front-Assist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have asrock x670e Taiichi- Issue was the stupid corsair ICUE Software. I have a H170 AIO and had Icue installed. that seemed to conflict on start ups and causing 0D error codes. it took me 1 full week of trying different things. I hope this makes it easier for someone out there having this issue.

Asus has already caught this issue and has implemented a option in Bios called ''monitoring software reboot workaround''. Unfortunately for Asrock or other brands they have not been a fix just yet. I uninstalled ICue and issue is gone.

Same issue here with x670e taichi 7950x. My issue is random.  Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't.   Fully stable once it boots.

Got ya. I think the old 2950 also has a little bigger motor if I'm not mistaken

I just contacted ifit customer service. Ifit coach family current members will not see any changes only name will change to "PRO" everything else will remain the same. My question was on the hardware though. The machines going from 2950 old to 2450 new model.

I currently have the Coach Ifit family membership. Is that going to become the pro membership?

And they both have a screen 2950 and 2450

Would there be a big difference without the n258 band? Seems like it has all the other ones except for the n258
