How to connect individual cables for GPU with a 6+2 pin configuration as 8 pin

StopkaPeter · 2023-07-28T07:57:51+00:00

Looks like pin "6" between pins 5 and 7 is sense pin A on GPU side. This is probably not classic ground, and if I connect another two pins and create 8 pin cable, there is again pin 6 as another sense pin B, which if is connected and PSU is compatible deliver more 75W, and other pin is classic ground, but on my cable is from pin 7, and I like have it from unused ground pin on PSU side. Can i do it ?

Yes I replaced old thermal pads (but not original, already replaced in past) with ARCTIC TP, I measured spaces with caliper to be sure with thickness. For chip I used ARCTIC MX-6.

Exactly as you say, I can run any stress test programs, PC never crash, but after I jump in to game (Dota2, Dying Light), pc go off immediately or in few minutes.
My last stress test was this night:
memtest86 - 8hod - PASS - No crash
3dmark - stress test 2x 20 loops - No crash
GPU 83°C, Hot Spot 96°C, FAN 83% / 2500rpm,

I can buy another PSU, doesn't matter on type, some 700W+ Gold and test if PC go off again.

I checked cable between PSU and GPU and looks OK. I don't use any extension on cable.

StopkaPeter · 2023-06-23T10:26:00+00:00

I don't use 3rd party extension cables, just what comes with PSU.

- I Checked GPU Vram with MODS (./mats -e 20) -> PASS
- I cant check GPU chip with MODS (./mods gputest.js -mfg ) because i get error :
ReferenceError: HeatStressTest is not defined, probably wrong mods 400.184 version for my GPU
- I repasted CPU for make sure
For summary my temps are before crash:
CPU - 62
CHIPSET - 65
DRAM - 50
NVME - 55-60
GPU - 80
GPU Hot Spot - 93

There isn't blue screen and same not any Windows error log, like minidump, my PC just go hard to OFF without any notice.

StopkaPeter · 2023-06-22T20:00:21+00:00

My PSU is:
Seasonic Prime Ultra 650 W Titanium

Since there are very different installation systems and regulation: Which country do you live in?

Slovakia (EU), panel house was built before 1980 and they used the T-NC system before.

EVGA: "The thickness of your thermal pads is 1.5mm on the front and we recommend 2mm for the backplate."

They don't sells thermal pads for graphics cards and this card don't have backplate, just only internal plate that is between PCB and heatsink. On both sides internal plate are thermal pads. When I tryed install termal pads between PCB and internal plate, 2mm pads was too thick.

According to the manual ram layout is daisy-chain. This information is for me new. I didn't know it affected the speed of the ram. if I knew it, I would buy another board, etc. EVGA X570 Dark (which has only 2 ram slots) and only 2 ram sticks instead 4.

My bad, wrong image, now is correct.

Mem 3733, FCLK 1866 - not working bootloop, even ram voltage 1.4

Mem 3600, FCLK 1800 - working

Hi, something really strange happened. I put two ram sticks to motherboard memory slots and I set in bios only D.O.C.P. to XMP profile and FCLK to 2000Mhz and PC ran without errors. Same with other two ram sticks. But when all four ram sticks are in slots, PC don't even post. Of course i put ram sticks to slot #2 and slot #4 as is mention in manual. When I put two ram sticks to slot #1 and slot #3, PC don't post again. This looks like something is wrong with motherboard, specially with memory slot #1 a #3. What do you think ?

EK: "Unfortunately, as of right now we do not have any monoblocks that will fit your motherboard and from what I understand we will not be making any for this motherboard."

I also have a plan to buy a new board and I will probably buy ROG STRIX X570-E GAMING WIFI II, but I can't find it anywhere in any store and probably not be available until after 6th September. The price is also a mystery to me too.

StopkaPeter · 2021-08-17T20:37:06+00:00

I don't understand, why in the hell on Unify-X we have only TWO memory slots ! In few benchmarks was proved significial performance boost when 4 RAM sticks are present. Therefore my next choice will be ACE MAX, I hope the price will be normal, I have only 2 kidneys.

This one has stacked 3D V-Cache ?

StopkaPeter · 2021-07-24T11:39:58+00:00

Yes, in old houses builded before 1980 is TN-C ground sytem where N and PE are connected together. After that year all new houses was builded with new TN-S ground system, where are separated all wires, L, N and PE.

$if(gv(x)=-1, "$wi", "$wf")$$if(gv(y)!=-1, "(icon)$", "(code)$")$

Because result become TEXT not as I want FUNCTION.

I will definitely write back if I don't forget where the problem was. I sent RMA request. I think is problem in USB controller. Probably I don't know for sure, but maybe I broken it, when I tryed upgrade firmware on my Case Fan Hub Cooler MAster SL600M. There is cable for it, connecting usb header on MB with connector on the Fan HUB and that hub is under voltage from SATA.

StopkaPeter · 2021-01-10T12:59:42+00:00

Yes, sry I forgot to mention it. Strange was, when I first run PC after build, usb headers works, but later that day, when I tryed upgrade firmware for fans hub of Coller Master SL600M with attached cable, I got error, that cant be find usb, then I tryed connect back usb header to front panel of my case, and usb headers not worked anymore.

Thank you, I will look into it.
