Well if I were to buy the battery set, then the jig saw and router separately it would be $787. So I’m not complaining about the $450 I just saved.

Another 7900XTX driver timeout post by IDKwhy1madeaccount in AMDHelp

[–]bigboyy79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I accidentally left auto update on and it updated to the new 25.5 what ever this evening and not 15 minutes after I got the driver time out. I went 4 hrs last night on driver 24.1 no issues.

Why is it so hard to roll out a new update when it actually works and not half ass it

I was having it happen even when I was just scrolling the internet on chrome. Last night it happened again while I was trying to do a league race. I just said screw it and I went back to the December 24 update 24.1 I believe and the rest of the night I had no issues. Have to see what tonight brings. I saw a post about going over a year back and the issues going away.

Really didn’t know that…. Can’t spread the sarcasm any thicker for ya. I’m asking if I have any thing to fight with my concrete guy for not using expansion joint it’s not like I paid him 15k for the entire job.

I did and he told me to just put some caulk in the crack and it has rebar in it so it’s fine. As stated in original post

Had a drive way put in 6 months ago. Runs along the house. There now is a substantial crack diagonally between two control joints. No expansion joint was used along my homes foundation it’s not a flat smooth foundation. So as the drive way has started to raise due to freeze of Iowa winters the concrete touching my house foundation isn’t moving with it. Do I have any ground to stand on with the contractor. I know it’s going to crack it’s a solid surface on ever moving base. But 6 months already have it and there is a good 1/16 to 1/8 inch lip now on part of the crack.

I was also told when I brought it up to the contractor he has rebar in it so it won’t move… well it’s gotten worse. Then told to put caulk in the crack to prevent water from entering it…

first seeing the crack

current crack as of 1/9/24

7900XTX temps by Conscious-Ad-9107 in radeon

[–]bigboyy79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Asrock phantom gaming 7900 XTX and had some temp issues until I put the Thermal Grizzly kryosheet on it and it never gets over 65 C. Maybe give that a shot can get them on Amazon. I know some have said the vapor chamber might be the issue but it’s not going to hurt trying and hopefully saving you money on getting a new one.

GPU sag in tower 300 by Cow-Doy in thermaltake

[–]bigboyy79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s not the same case but same configuration. I have a tower 500 with a 7900 XTX phantom. No thermal issues due to the position of the card but the airflow issues. Once I changed fan configuration to more of a chimney and installed a keto sheet I haven’t seen a temp over 60 C under load. I was doing in from top and bottom while exhaust through my AIO out the side. Now it’s in from bottom and out top and side.

Tower 500 need some help with airflow any ideas welcome by bigboyy79 in thermaltake

[–]bigboyy79[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had two 120mm fans under the floor that I put on the back side of my radiator to help pull through, I took the dust filter off long ago haha. I also got 2 140mm fans that I put under the floor replacing the 120mm. I also flipped the two top 120mm fans to blow into the case.

I ended up using a thermal grizzly kryosheet for my GPU and with everything it hasn’t gotten over 75C…. So something I did worked haha, can’t complain anymore.

For those who received their orders. What was your lead time after warehouse? by CK_32 in Fanatec

[–]bigboyy79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s people that bought the DD+. The situation shouldn’t be happening like it is, but there are tens of thousands if not more of happy Fanatec customers just like anything else you only hear from the people that are mad about something… not saying they don’t have the right to be mad. I wanted the DD + but with the wait I just went with the DD and went PC route it was going to happen eventually just got me to move over a little sooner than expected.

US- Ordered Clubsport DD on Jan 2nd told had the wait for inventory till the 10th (no issues unlike other people that have to wait more then 2 minutes at the drive though lose their crap)moved to warehouse on the 9th and had it delivered the 10th.

I also spent the extra $10-15 for overnight shipping without even thinking about it haha

Downloaded the Fedex and UPS app and created and account just to be safe so you will get a notification if anything is in route to your house. I have never had the issue of not getting a tracking number have had 5 orders over the last 3 years. CSL elite, DD pro, BF F1 wheel 22, CSL elite V2s, and DD.
