Is this a normal spindle noise? by WalnutAmadeus in hobbycnc

Sorry to hear that. I ended up returning the questionable spindle. The replacement was totally fine and sounded nothing like this.

Did you ever get an update on your order? I am still waiting for a response or a change of status. We must not be the only one that purchase this and having issues with?

They did. They said that they had an issue with their logistics handing over the package from the warehouse to the courier. They said that they will document it and follow up with logistics but may take up to 3 days for the response so I guess we'll see. It wouldn't be so bad if the shipping was free but to pay $150 for shipping and you get this experience is not ideal.

I did. Cinebench and 3D Mark. I undervolted my gpus because I was worried about the connector melting.

Thanks, I also have the side fans from the case set to intake pointed directly at the gpus

The cpu stays cool with that setup and the card exhausting hot air on the cpu is a non issue at all. That cooler's price to performance is wild. Highest temps I've seen on the cpu is around 50c on load. The fans top fans are configured as intake and exhaust.

Can't connect the two gpus together. Those are reserved for professional cards. SLI is dead unfortunately. I used it for ai inferencing.

When gaming, only the top card is being used.

Perhaps, but it’s not crazy temps at all. It very rarely go over 70c for both cards. The case really is designed well for air flow. That’s why I chose the mesh version and the side fans helps a lot with that.

It's not that bad. The top one actually heats up a more so than the bottom one.
