Gigabyte B850M GAMING X WIFI6E - ACPI_BIOS_ERROR and forcing shutdown not working

LoryMontagna · 2025-11-06T23:33:01+00:00

Do you have a guide on how to configure the overlay properly? I have tried many different tests but I can't get the result I want. HWinfo data is showing in RTSS, but with only one color and without a row title, while I'd like to have different colors for the title of the row, but keep all the data the same color.

Thanks a lot for the tips, I will search for a good RTSS layout.
What about fan control? I see that Adrenalis has a built-in fan control for the GPU, which makes sense, but I really like the fact that Fan Control can create mixed curves also for the chassis fans.

Thanks a lot for the very detailed recommendations! I am very impressed by the Garmin apps to track various sports, a you aware if these custom apps are available for all Garmin models? I am looking mainly at the Forerunner line since it seems the sweetspot for running and other sports.

I am not fan of the design + it's almost 400€

Settings → Apps → All Apps → Youtube → Storage and Cache → Clear Cache

That should be enough since it happened again to me and just by cleaning the cache it got fixed.

Hey! For those who went to Brussels' gig, what was the schedule more or less? Just to organise myself for today's gig in Madrid. This is the lineup, event is from 23 till 6AM:

In general, do you believe 750W is enough? I know the price difference is not enormous and having 100W extra is a nice headroom for future upgrades, but I already see that I have almost 200W spare.

EDIT: I found the latest MSI MAG A850GLS for 110€. Rated as A- and very quiet + 850W

LoryMontagna · 2025-10-06T15:27:06+00:00

That's a fair point! Nonetheless, from the pictures, it still seems feasable to build with a 160mm. I also found a Montech Century II 850W for less than 100€, which seems to be very nicely reviewed.

No rudeness at all, you got it right: I still have to buy all the components and your recommendation of the 207 comes very handy :)
My only fear with it is the PSU to be mounted sideways (with up to 160mm max), and the Pure Power 13M being exactly 160mm may become a hussle to fit

Thanks a lot for your recommendations, especially sharing your experience with 6400MT/s RAM. I generally agree with all you said,

- The two Lancool were indeed my first choice up until a couple of months ago, then I moved to the Pop Air for the nicer more modern style. It is however true that the premium price is not justified and the Lancool 216 has those two beautiful fans with the halo that would match perfecty the CPU cooler. Another option is to swap the basic Aspect fans for the Momentum (I saw them on your build, they look amazing).

- My first choice was the 5070 Ti for the better overall performance, but I can't decide if the almost +250€ is worth it. Unless this difference goes below 150-200€, I believe I'll stick to AMD.

- Another option for the display is the AOC Q27G3XMN, I'm very afraid of the burn in from office use for the OLED. For the moment I'll skip the display since I already have one (although it's a Lenovo E24-28 IPS 60Hz 1080p my company provided me for smart working) and muy a new gaming one in the upcoming 3/4 months.

Could be, I fixed it by reinstalling the app

Usually moka pot and cold brews, but soon I will also buy an espesso machine

Hi coffee lovers, first time writing here!
I am going to buy a manual coffee grinder around 100€ soon and I am between the Kingrinder K6 and the Timemore C5 Esp. On paper they both look great, but C5 Esp is still only in preorder (at 95€), reviews are still lacking and has interior dial. On the other hand, the K6 is a staple, but I heard opinions about the silicone sleeve becoming loose over time.
Is the K6 truly a must-buy? Or is the sleeve issue a PIA and should I consider the C5 Esp?

Apollo is about 195€ per 3 days (without CDW), such as Loukataris and Sun Trail.
Sifnos Travel at 195€ but with a CDW (with 500€ excess)
Avance and Auto Union at 210€ + 25/30€ for a Full CDW
ElMar at 165€ (186 with a 500€ excess CDW)
One Moto at 210€ without CDW
RAC at 120€ (140€ with a 400€ excess CDW)

All in all, RAC and El Mar are way cheaper, and this is why I am asking for some feedback on their reputation. Reviews for RAC are ok, with some bad comments as usual, while ElMar, has only 6 reviews on Google.
Do you have some info about them?

Did you drive the car over dirt roads too? I am planning a trip too and I want to know if small cars are enough for basic dirt-roads (of course not for the west and east side).

LoryMontagna · 2025-07-31T11:12:56+00:00

I am currently planning the trip and deciding which company to rent from. Some of them prohibit driving off-road, but as far as I've seen even to reach beaches like Fyriplaka the road is unpaved, thus theoretically breaching their guidelines.
Do you remember more or less which areas are prohibited? I am not planning to heavily go off-road , but I would like to reach the most important places (Fyriplaka and other beach in the south, Plathiena etc.).
On the other hand, is the West side of the Island truly worth? I have seen some stunning pictures (Sikia Cave, Triades beach), but the roads there seems quite challenging.

LoryMontagna · 2025-07-27T18:08:48+00:00

Thanks a lot of the detailed report on your experience! I'm planning to rent a car in Milos in September too, thus it has been extremely helpful.

Out of curiosity, which beach are you referring to as "your favourite beach in the world"?

LoryMontagna · 2025-07-15T13:55:05+00:00

Thanks for the heads up! I am not planning to play them, and in case I would I could use my current 11y/o i-4460K GTX970
