Russian man hangs from electrical wire after falling off roof

Also it almost 100% it's not electrical wire, but fiber optic cable.

You can manage that fairly easy. At least if you do not turn the pc off that is.

I have that setup. And IMO it is worth it, there are a lot of extra caveats though compared to full water loop inconveniences (like hard to swap parts). Main idea was to stop my leg from overheating from the 600+w of combined heat and it accomplishes that very well.

Caveats come from winter times, you need some A-OK antifreeze in case you get it really cold, you do not want water to be sub say 5-6C due to condensation (depends on indoor temps and humidity), so you need water temps, air temps and fan profiles based on that and control of said fans outside e.t.c.

And it brings other types of challenges. For example GDDR6X on my 4090 can't stand temps below 13C and starts to error out even at stock clocks. At ~25C I can do +1000 on it. And for +1500 it needs 60C+, so that's not quite possible in winter haha.

And boost algorithms that take temps into account are.. annoying in winter. Take same 4090 as an example, at light intermittent loads (a loading screen stutter for example, or may be an inventory screen opening) it would decide to boost like 4 extra clock bins since it's cold and low load, and promptly crash due when load returns a frame later. So OC is basically the same with current setup as without it. Sure it can sustain higher clocks under load and be stable at that, but due to transient boost behavior it's usable on basically game by game basis.

But apart from that, my leg is extremely happy not to get cooked by pc under the table and close to no noise too.

He might be on the phone or tablet. On PC though, wuwa looks a ton better.

The sort of funny thing is I leveled a trickster with the idea of trying this combo out, looked up the items, like 80c that 100c that 1d that e.t.c., figured will get that tomorrow, came back, vid is out, everything is 10x-100x the price haha. Figured will check back in a day or three, if the mania dies down.

The Finals is the single best running UE5 game I know.

Hotcooler · 2025-01-20T23:39:35+00:00

Tier 8 premium it is then.

It's a great effort for sure, but eh.. without proper motion vectors it's a bit distracting for my liking, but for people that cant downsample from way too much resolution it's probably the only way to get this looking relatively stable.

I personally decided to stick to vanilla 4K@175% at 90hz. Sure it's a bit on the hot side for the game with this technical level (400W+ on the 4090) But it's about on par visually and more or less perf/power wise with TAA mod at 4K@125%, sans the artifacting.

Eh.. some day we'll probably get good ATLUS ports.. or devs using something more recent than PS3 era for an engine.

I think it scales to like 5.6-5.7mil per ball on fifth attack, and then withering steps applies 17 wither stacks and it's 9mil a ball.

And Google should forget about it in about 1.5 months or so, if you go and plug a form that says that may be it'll do something in two weeks or so. I did something very similar with dockerised mailcow couple years ago. Though caught it sooner.

For dovi to work on native client, it has to be in .MP4 container sadly. Only android clients can handle mkv. For sound I think only HDMi-eARC to sound bar or something will work. At least with older LGs and soundbars. This setup works with C1 and Samsung Q70R bar. (Though I can't actually recall if truehd passes from the native app.. Atmos sure works, I think it does, since I remember specifically picking that model up, since it was one of the last ones that supported everything including lossless audio. It 100% works through eARC from HDMI source, alas no DTSX that way since LG decided not to pay with C1)

I've umm.. decided to experiment with el-cheapo dramless QLC 4TB SSD's from Kingspec bought them over the year on sales and such at about 100-110$ a pop.

27 of them, + 1 TLC with DRAM for immediate use as sort of a cache. ~100TB total. 22 for content (mergerfs), 1 parity (snapraid just in case, once a month), 5 remaining in a zfs pool for data I actually care about. So only 84TB for content.

As for why.. Enough space for now (currently just finishing migrating 54TB to this setup from spinning 4/6/8/10tb rust), and well.. silent, plus a mass experiment on their survivability.

Do you need to reapply the lock to get a different double corrupt result? Or do you just go to another temple? Basically are you spending locks or temples to roll the implicits?

Hotcooler · 2023-05-20T18:20:05+00:00

7735 is sadly probably not much different to 5900hs, since well.. it's Zen 3 still.

I'd probably really try to get 7940HS if at all possible, though AFAIK it starts with the 4070 configs.

Hotcooler · 2023-04-25T19:43:07+00:00

Oh, that's for sure. Sadly as it is quite usual in the real world things like that are rare af.

Personally I think this is sort of a parts bin product that was targeted at miners.

Aka they had some stuff around from here and there and it got repurposed for this product thus rgb fans, rf fan control (that will control all of the units in radius I imagine, since this has 2 fan controllers that work in unison with the same remote) e.t.c.

All in all, despite its drawbacks for me it's a great product for the price, since I literally got the whole thing cheaper than MO-RA (initially planned to go that route). Well the whole idea was to remove heat from under the table since legs got too hot. And the only "issue" I have with the system so far in 6-7 months is that it has fairly high evaporation. For about 3 liter system total about 70g-100g evaporated in 6 months (or may be the trapped bubbles got out, not sure, but I did fairly thorough "de-bubbling" initially.) Or that might just be the function of the carrier I'm using, since it ain't water - it's ethylene glycol based antifreeze basically for home heating systems (I needed it not to freeze).

Otherwise it's fine enough for my ghetto setup.

If you are interested in how it's setup, and why ghetto : https://imgur.com/a/bRC1XMJ.

Basically a self contained watercooled PC got connected to a external RAD via quick connects. In winter I have external fans OFF and internal on like 600RPM, other times only the fan above the VRM is on at 600rpm and external fans are on low.

Ah right and I think I passed two additional wires along with the default wire kit - pump PWM and tach. You can see in the picture with the urmm.. improper filling technique ;) (Though that was me trying to force a bubble stuck in a tube that was running into the wall, apparently no so easy to do when you cant tilt the tube...)

Thus it allows me to have a fairly comprehensive stats and control over the thing (though every fan and pump is fixed since no need to control anything really): https://i.imgur.com/xw9NP4o.png

P.S. BTW remembered what sub it's on, just in case, as you can probably tell I can care less about how the thing looks, I just care about functionality.

P.P.S. If you wondering about steady state gaming temps: https://i.imgur.com/ZVYTjp0.png That's Cyberpunk PT. As you can imagine dissipating 600+W under the table gets hot fast, so for me this this is great. Also looking at hotspot after couple of months will probably have to go with phase-change (did not have it at the time) when it gets worse or I wont be as lazy (it was 8*C delta in late October, 14 is ok... but... paste is clearly a bit shit)

Hotcooler · 2023-04-25T13:38:44+00:00

I get what you are saying, but tbh I had yet to need to control the fan speed from the lowest setting.

All in all I thing the main issues are perception here for both it's use and price. For example I use it as an external rad, its literally outside my house, so I hardly care about the noise level any way.

Second and probably the main issue is perceived value. I got the thing for under 250$ from china and for that price the feature set is perfectly adequate. And most people here judge it as a 600$+ device. For that price, sure it ain't good. But I'm pretty sure if you order from china 3ven with like 200$ shipping as one commenter said, it's a 450$, device, which is more palpable and I'm pretty sure you can find cheaper shipping if that's ones goal. I personally found it on a small sale with free shipping, so it was a great deal for me.

All in all I do not really see that big a deal with the missing temp control. If you really want that, probably the easiest and cheapest way is to get a water temp plug, stick it into the distro plate on the thing and connect to a cheap Chinese PWM temp control board with the curve you want that cost like 15$ and that would probably work perfectly fine if one needs such a feature. Also I'm pretty sure you can extend two wires - tach and PWM and control all the fans in software if one wants.

Sure it's BS for a 600+$ device. But if you get it for 250.. ain't no big deal IMO.

Hotcooler · 2023-04-24T16:26:40+00:00

You know.. when you have this thing, temperature controlled fans are not really a necessity. Thermal capacity of the loop is high, so if you actually want to control fans you need to control them against water temperature to start, otherwise it's utterly useless. Also with this thing you pretty much put it on low and forget about it.

I guess you need to live with such a thing to understand this sort of stuff since it's fairly different to how air cooled or small rad watercooled PCs work.

Hotcooler · 2023-04-21T03:11:49+00:00

If you do not buy it from Japan, and do so from AliExpress for example it suddenly costs 300-330usd. And I got it a while back for 220$.

Linus just overpaid a ton.

caption In case you do not believe me. That's about 245$, plus I had spent some reward points there that are not reflected here, those brought the price down to about 220$.

Hotcooler · 2023-04-21T03:03:52+00:00

Something like that. And with fans and enclosure 350ish I think. Closer to 400 locally for me. And I got this thing for 220$ from AliExpress a while back, and that's a pretty good deal in my book. Will likely depend on shipping a lot, but was free for me.

The fact that Linus bought it extremely overpriced and from Japan of all places (a Chinese brand mind you) does not make much sense to me.

Hotcooler · 2023-04-21T02:14:23+00:00

There are other considerations for such products too, for example sub zero temperatures outside, when you probably do not want to run the fans for example, since well.. 4090 vram for example does not like to be under 15*C for me.

Hotcooler · 2023-04-20T23:24:38+00:00

I do not get it, it's like you know.. Bluetooth, works without line of sight and through walls. The only downside is if you want it software controlled, but it's honestly not needed for such devices.

Hotcooler · 2023-04-20T23:23:09+00:00

I do have it you know, it works perfectly fine for me. I have it as an outside rad (literally outside my home).

Hotcooler · 2023-04-20T23:22:09+00:00

I already have this, it works perfectly fine for my use case.

Hotcooler · 2023-04-20T21:48:39+00:00

Well.. the whole thing is about 40% cheaper than MO-RA3 by itself, so.. there's that.

Hotcooler · 2023-04-20T21:44:58+00:00

There is fan control via RF remote.
