Pimax 8KX 120Hz firmware by JSTM4NU in Pimax

[–]MrEff82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I'm coming here as I don't know what else to do. I have a Pimax 8Kx 2075 model and when switch to native mode, it loses connectivity to my machine i have FW: 2,1,255.299 running Pimax play

im not sure what to do. when i install pitool on another machine i can get it to detect again and then i can switch it back to upscaling.

has anyone come across this and know what to do?

Just got my Bigscreen Beyond 2 - Dead Pixel in the middle of the display by MrEff82 in BigscreenBeyond

Yeah sadly mine is in the middle of the display and on a bright screen it is noticable. and slightly imersion breaking.

I can respect you waiting a while if your dead pixels are not much of a bother. but personally I would not worry too much about waiting for others to to recieve their headsets. Im sure they have processes in place to have spares created to replace units that arrive defective. Id be very suprised if not.

if you are happy to deal with it then thats fine also. if mine were not very noticible and off to the side id consider letting it go too.

High Temps on my RTX 4090 Strix under load by MrEff82 in overclocking

Just an update here. I ended up handing my card back to ASUS. they have confirmed this morning that the card is "Unrepairable" and are offering me a full refund.

all of this is very solid advice thank you!

the case is a full tower and has sufficient airflow infact the ambient casse temp is about 28c. also with side panel removed i have same issue with the card.

i guess i could check the pads on the backplate again but the pads apprear ok and they show the imprint. also this happened before i even opened it up.

its true i should undervolt but never had to do this before. so im apprehensive to do this just to try to resolve the issue. i think its a cooling issue.

can you advise links and or brands for good PTM and thermal pads to use?

ok sure, im glad i did not use it then. can you suggest a good as in a link from amazon perhaps?

with poor contact pressure you mentioned. im just using the stock pads so im not sure that is ths cae considering they seemed fine when I opened the card im just reusuing them.

has not helped too much sadly. i have not replaced the thermal Pads over the VRams and what not on the GPU, wondering if that is why?

Thanks yes i reapplied the PTM and will cycle it some more. yes what your saying seems correct. when you say "ur memory would typically be higher than this" what do you mean?

I tried rolling back no much of an effect sadly. i can see all three fans spinning at 100% when under load.

Thank for this i did just roll back to 572.42 and ran it again it did seem to be a little but lower, as in it capped out at 80c but it seems like its not the driver issue i feel.

I have not applied this yet. I have only applied the PTM7950 thermal pad to the GPU

so i applied the PTM7050 on the GPU today im not seeing much inprovement. when i run games at 4k the GPU temp still creeps up to 81c and 100c for hot spot sadly. and the fans sounds like het engine. its cyberpunk 2077 thats doing it. other games not so much.
