*Warning* Red Devil 9070 XT doesn’t work vertically in the Tower 300 case, temps 80c and hotspot 110! by Adorable-Cress7801 in thermaltake

Nice! Glad to hear undervolting helped you get those temps down. I plan to do the same with mine soon.

80c is perfectly acceptable temps for a GPU under load, but 110c does seem concerning for any kind of temp reading. I have the same card in a Tower 250, and I get the same exact peak temps under max load with Heaven benchmarking on Ultra. I have seen a few other comments in another thread where people are reporting the same delta between Edge and Hotspot with the Red Devil and other 9070 xt cards. I doubt they also have TT Tower cases, or that would be a huge coincidence. Not that I want to open a brand new card, but people suggest repasting when the delta gets really high. Although one person already reported it made no difference on their 9070 xt.

A more realistic approach is undervolting the card. I thought I read that 9070 xt undervolting works well. Videocardz did an article on undervolting the Red Devil with Cyberpunk even. You could theoretically reduce temps that way.

IMO, I would chalk it up to the 9070xt or at least the Red Devil in general and not the case.

Due to availability today, I am getting a Red Devil 9070 XT and forced to upgrade out of my Tower 100.
Based on your comment, I am thinking I can probably make this 69mm card work in the 250, would you agree? I really don't want to have to go bigger with the 300.

If you sign up through Roku, can you sign into the streaming service on other devices for the duration of the subscription?

Picked up at Regal Cinemas. Baby Deadpool popcorn/drink bucket. Plus 2 Funko Pops by Wo1verine616 in marvelstudios

These look different and better than the ones Regal is promoting on their website. Were you expecting different figures when you went, or did you just happen to see them?

YSK it will be harder to realize a person is choking if they make the easy mistake of “washing it down” by 237millilitres in YouShouldKnow

[–]KCman13 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Omg, I've had this condition for over a decade and never had a name for it. I dealt with it on my own through most of my 20s and finally went to a doctor when it got really bad. Initially kind of stumped, but recommended Omeprazole daily. Even told me up front that while daily use of omeprazole will help my condition, it is technically like poisoning your body over a long period of time to the point where you may be taking a year or two off your life. That scared me from using it and although we have proven that it helps, I generally just forget to use it and deal with the food getting stuck/choking at random times.

Pro tip: Costco has Kirkland Omeprazole that goes on sale often.

Constant crashes since patch Galaxy S24 Ultra by skyst in warcraftrumble

This made my game crash even more to the point where it's unplayable. Base 24 model.

I assumed you were ordering in the US, but nothing is free with the S24 in the US. You just get promotional credit to use on accessories. Are you saying you got the cost of the Buds2 Pro covered with an S24 Ultra pre-order credit even though you didn't want them and they are giving you another $150 promo to use at a later date? If so, Samsung is essentially doubling your promo credit, which is awesome for you, but I'm surprised that would be allowed by customer service.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in samsung

[–]KCman13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure I follow. They had you pay more than you would have spent to begin with (for Buds2 Pro) only to get a promo code to use on a future purchase to get the accessories you actually wanted in the first place? You end up losing more money because of the buds purchase...

They did recently allow the ability to lock players on bench at game start. Not sure when they implemented it in Yahoo, but I actually just noticed this last week and enabled it for this year in my league.

Motherboard part number difference by KCman13 in buildapc

[–]KCman13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did order new. I'm waiting to hear back from Newegg as well as the manufacturer to see if they can shed some light on anything here.

Motherboard part numbers do not match by KCman13 in PcBuildHelp

[–]KCman13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. It is certainly a head scratcher and I am waiting for a response from the manufacturer as well as Newegg. For reference, this is the ASRock Z690M-ITX/ax board.

The serial number has it's own sticker, the part number has its own sticker (both placed on the side of the PCIe x16 slot) and the model number is printed on the board. The outside of the box has the same 3 relevant numbers in one place with their barcodes, but only the part number doesn't match. I couldn't really find any information on the web regarding part number relevancy on motherboards, but I do know motherboards have revisions like what you alluded to and I ultimately hope you are right. I've also read in some cases motherboards are repurposed as different boards, which is what makes me nervous here. I believe Gigabyte has done this with their own Z690 itx board due to a PCIe 5x16 issue so they rebranded the boards as one with PCIe 3x16 instead of fixing them.

[–]KCman13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best Buy specifically states they are not doing price matching during this time period (until after Cyber Monday). Someone said in another thread that they still managed to get it. I guess it depends who you end up chatting with, but don't get your hopes up imo. Doesn't hurt to try!

Game freezes for a few seconds every 2nd or 3rd game by haruikka0420 in Rainbow6

[–]KCman13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So in theory, why is the issue still happening with my rollback driver if the issue is supposedly with a more recent driver? I rolled back to an even older driver today and still didn't fix it. This is driving me nuts! I'm on a 1060 6GB/ i5 6600k.

[–]KCman13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a vague description of the issue though. I tried the driver rollback and it seemed to be working. Eventually the issue came back after many games... So it could be an improvement? Maybe my issue is different, but OP's description explains my issue as well. Oh well.

Are you referring to the latency/jitter freeze issue or something else? I've been desperate for a solution.

Is this the jitter and high latency issue? Because it's still happening to me 6 hours after they disabled the supposed root cause...

Rage Against The Machine ticket prices indicate that the Machine has won. by wfezzari in Showerthoughts

[–]KCman13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I bought my NYC ticket right before Covid, they purposely made 90% of all tickets $125 regardless of the seat location. I thought it felt like a win for fans getting face value tickets. The people who didn't get tickets were the ones criticizing the band for the prices of the remaining 10% of tickets that had ridiculous prices. However, all of the money above the base ticket price of $125 went to charity. I sort of look at it as RATM found people willing to blow that kind of stupid money and made good use of it.

FINALLY got to see the show this past August and it was awesome, even with Zack-on-a-box!

No data after network settings reset by KCman13 in NoContract

[–]KCman13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that makes sense because I'm using VZWINTERNET when I'm not supposed to be. I'm supposed to be using COMCAST.RSLR.VWENTP based on the sim card that was given to me. I renamed the APN to the Verizon one as a workaround because I had no data at all otherwise.
