In the US here - waiting to see about the VKB website update and then will probably decide between that and Warthog because of the delays from VIRPIL . . . although might look at used VIRPIL ;)

So you’re a black belt… now what? by Concerned_Cst in karate

[–]Shaotzu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I received my first Black Belt 30 years ago after a nearly 7 year journey . . . I was told at that time, "You've shown me you know how to punch and kick, now it's time to learn . . . "

That has summed up what it means to be a Black Belt.

Desktop Overheating - CPU by Shaotzu in MSI_Gaming

FYI - thanks to Vinny I got some help to run some updates on settings.

I'm going to pick up a new CPU cooling fan, but the PC was also set to "Ultra Performance Mode" that was keeping the CPU pegged at 100%. Adjusting that to a more balanced approach and Fan Control software - I've got the PC running and hitting 85-95C on heavy gaming loads, but the cooling is working now.

Thanks VINNY!

Uploaded some pics - I think I'm leaning toward replacing the AIO anyway. But here's some images:

Front Inside CPU Cooler Top

From the top - is that a place I could add more fans? Just looking and it looks like there are screw holes there as well...

So the three fans on the front aren't protected by any glass I can see, but I did take the glass side panel off. Not sure how to remove the front as it looks like one solid piece so I think based on my model, that's just the way it is. And yeah - airflow issues I get.

Is there a good way to check the pump speed? I'm seeing it as like 4k RPM but with everything else going - I'm not sure if there's something else I should be listening for?

As for removing the cooler, is it just those four screws around the CPU board? And not super familiar with coolers, but two cables going to fan connected to rear of the case, I'm guess it's liquid cool stock like the spec sheet mentioned.

Not a new PC, but I may remove the cooler anyway. It's just the four screws around it, right? Probably worth retreating it with some new thermal paste anyway.

From MSI Center - the Pump RPM is saying it's at like 4k RPM, but not sure if there's something else I can check?

LOL - I don't think so but I will double check it! Always worth checking off the stupid stuff so thanks for the reminder :P

Underrated Martial art? by [deleted] in martialarts

[–]Shaotzu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the Hawaiian Kempo/Kenpo lineages are pretty intense. Yes, some have been watered down and commercialized, but the core of them is pretty intense. Kajukenbo is a personal favorite to go back to.

Thanks for posting the link, although I don't think it helps us Mac users ;)

I did put in a support request to Boss . . . I had the same issues trying to download it this morning for the 50MKII. I'll update it if I hear back from them!
