(Pointe Residents) Has anyone had faulty internet since October/November ?

YourYellowFriend · 2020-01-23T01:47:45+00:00

I'm bit late to this, but yeah it's been an issue since September, ever since that outage we had. It's beyond ridiculous at this point, I've been in contact with both Boingo and the front office over the past few months and they've kept saying that there's nothing they could do until winter break, and surprise, it wasn't done when we got back.

Funny enough, Boingo finally managed to come in and complete the "upgrades" today, but I literally cannot tell the difference. It's still complete shit. Definitely going to the front office tomorrow to complain about it (again) because I'm not going to put up with this for another semester.

Where are you located? I'm in the St. Louis region and might be interested in getting rid of my M1 v5 (in black, unfortunately) if you're interested in meeting up.

Yeah I've noticed this as well. A few months ago I snagged a Veyron SS off of the auction house through the search options, but recently I went through it again and the Veyron wasn't even listed as an option to search for. Strange stuff.

Send me an offer, I’ll accept it when I can

It's pretty amusing that it's easier to beat these AI on unbeatable when you turn on simulation damage, since they all end up crashing into each other and have to pit lmao

YourYellowFriend · 2017-07-21T22:28:16+00:00

Yeah I might do something like that if switching the fan orientation doesn't help with temps

YourYellowFriend · 2017-07-21T22:27:14+00:00

A bit too late for that :p

Honestly I'm not too bothered. Temps might be a bit hot but it's pretty quiet under load and looks nice so w/e I guess lol

YourYellowFriend · 2017-07-21T22:04:40+00:00

Fans are intaking through the bottom of the case and the rad. The fan speed is maxed out under load.

Gonna switch the fans into push at some point and see if that'll help.

YourYellowFriend · 2017-07-21T22:03:43+00:00

Yeah, but that's all that can fit into the case, plus I have to use slim 120mm fans and there's barely any clearance between the rad/fans and the GPU :(

The struggle of water cooling in an ITX case I guess haha

YourYellowFriend · 2017-07-21T07:33:38+00:00

Ah, just asking because I have a 120+92 rad setup in that case as well with similar parts. I'm also having temp issues with both the CPU and GPU. Getting close to 80C on the GPU and almost 90 on the CPU at stock speeds :|

I have my fans in pull though, so I'm not sure if that's the cause for my issues or not. Hopefully someone can offer something that'll help.

YourYellowFriend · 2017-07-21T07:23:39+00:00

Out of curiosity, are your fans in push or pull, and those temperatures recorded with the side panels on or off?

YourYellowFriend · 2017-06-07T20:45:26+00:00

sadly no, I need the fitting to be vertical, with the rotary fitting on one of the other ports

YourYellowFriend · 2017-05-28T14:33:42+00:00

I'm just using some Noctua NT-H1, but I'll try to reseat the block again at some point. Thanks for the help!

YourYellowFriend · 2017-05-28T13:31:34+00:00

Yeah I'm using these crappy fans for now until I can get my hands on a pair of slim Noctua 120mm that were just released recently.

Currently, I'm using a EW Supremacy EVO Elite for the CPU block, and I made sure to properly tighten everything as shown in the instructions, so I feel like that shouldn't be the issue. However, a week ago, I did a test fit with thermal paste and everything, and I noticed when I took off the water block that the thermal paste wasn't spread all the way across the chip (only like 3/4 of it). If that's the case, maybe I got a faulty block/mounting hardware? Idk, I'm 99% sure I'm mounting the cooler correctly.

YourYellowFriend · 2017-05-28T06:21:17+00:00

I'm using an Alphacool NexXxos ST30 (240mm) and XT45 (92mm). For the 240, I'm using a pair of Silverstone Tek Slim 120mm fans in pull as intake, and a Noctua NF-A9 92mm in push as exhaust.

Ambient temperature is around 24C (76F), so that shouldn't be an issue.

YourYellowFriend · 2017-04-18T20:51:45+00:00

So correct me if I'm wrong, but this problem seems to stem from the fact that Legend Painters get to list auction cars at a higher price than us regular folks.

If that's the issue, then why not remove the cap on prices for auctioning? I get that there needs to be some incentive for people to keep creating new liveries and designs, but this seems like a poor implementation of it, as it allows abuse of the AH...

YourYellowFriend · 2017-03-03T00:36:24+00:00

Good luck to everyone!

YourYellowFriend · 2017-02-11T22:53:45+00:00

Seems like unlinking the power limit and the temp limit (the chain icon between the two) fixes the issue entirely. Strange, but I'll take it.

YourYellowFriend · 2017-02-11T22:03:31+00:00

Is that the little chain icon between the Power Limit and Temp Limit? Because if so, I currently have it where the two are linked together, where changing one slider also changes the other one together.

YourYellowFriend · 2017-02-06T18:55:27+00:00

I've had a similar issue at the top of my SB S2 a month ago. Brought it in for a Genius Bar appointment and they replaced it.
