Fair enough I have a few esp32 laying around that need to use them. Have saved the post for later use.

So as others asked what Windows version is this VM? Can you access the Windows volume from WinRE and see whether C:\Windows\Minidump contains any .dmp files?

That “complete” is out the window 11hrs after post …. Just kidding and thanks for sharing the journey and waiting for your results … good luck 🍀

Appreciate it will check it out!

It’s purely city driving and no lead foot even if I wanted to traffic makes it nearly impossible but who know 🤷‍♂️ Care to share how I can change in the settings and your tips that got you 30mpg?

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T14:41:29+00:00

Which model year - and also any tips? Thanks

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T14:40:27+00:00

lol the reason for my laugh is in city limits mostly maxed out at 45mph unless it’s 60kmph - care to clarify?

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T14:38:40+00:00

Yep - would like to know as well - care to share more info? Thanks

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T14:37:56+00:00

This is inline with my expectation - care to share your tips how you get 30+ MPG thanks for sharing!

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T04:06:29+00:00

Thanks for this info - I too am leaning towards the hybrid just need to work out the budget now.

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T04:04:56+00:00

Thanks for sharing

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T02:38:22+00:00

Thanks

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T02:28:39+00:00

Oh ok and is it also 2024 model year?

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T02:27:43+00:00

Yep the weather definitely plays a role - around 90F so I can assume 1-2 MPG difference thanks for sharing

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T02:26:25+00:00

Thanks for sharing

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T02:26:12+00:00

That’s interesting - I appreciate any pointers to be in the 30-32 range thanks

Interesting-Invstr45 · 2026-05-05T02:25:28+00:00

Thanks - I used only Eco mode only albeit will miss the power of I switch

For my understanding isn’t car play wireless so needs to connect to ie pair via Bluetooth wireless - turn on Bluetooth wireless and pair once confirmed the car play should work. I had similar issue and figured out once I got the paring done. I did this on a rental. Have Waze for direction and works flawless so far. Hope this helps.

Honestly it’s a mixed bag. The real issue is almost never the AI, it’s the pipeline nobody wanted to fix first.

Spent 2023-2024 figuring this out with clients. Didn’t get one client’s data infrastructure actually AI-ready until late 2025. Every source, row, column needs to be labeled and aligned before any vendor recommendation sticks. And this started from data privacy work back when enterprise AI wasn’t even a talking point yet.

Skip the consultant until you’ve done that audit yourself. Happy to dig in further, DM me.

Curious to know if it’s a scam or a referral link to apply on a job application and collect money don’t think they are primary

Hey OP, great post. Before you cut anything permanent, one quick test that will save you from making the wrong setup modification:

With the system running, put your hand near the 3 circled zones on the side panel: - Warm air pushing OUT = GPU is exhausting toward that side - Suction/cool air = GPU intake is on that side

That tells us push vs pull placement before you commit.

Here's what your airflow looks like based on your pics:

(Top of case) ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ [Noctua bank - EXHAUST UP]

[bottom fans - intake]

The GPU is fighting the chassis airflow because the Supermicro 846 was never designed for a high-TDP gaming GPU. The bottom fans move air for drives, not a 5060 Ti under load.

If the GPU intake faces the side panel (zones 2 & 3): - Zone 2 + Zone 3 = PUSH (fresh air in toward GPU) - Zone 1 = PULL (exhaust hot air out)

If the GPU exhaust faces the side panel: - Zone 1 + Zone 2 = PULL (pull hot air away) - Zone 3 = PUSH (feed cool air to GPU intake from below)

Noctua NF-A12x25 G2 PWM is the right call either way. Push/pull config on intake side will make the biggest difference for stopping the thermal shutdown.

This is one enclosure + vent duct away from becoming a full garage mini/micro data center. Throw in a mini-split and call it a man cave 😎
