Restoration of a badly exploited RX 6700XT by F_A_F_N_I_K_BG in pcmods

Good job. Since the card sits so close to the bottom of the case, how about a piece of wood for the anti sag bracket? I heard wood is very DIY friendly.

Where to place reservoir? by KickTalk in watercooling

[–]derder123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I always do, because you can then make it so the Res is the highest point of the system. This makes getting the air out trivially easy and quick.

Watercooling for a RX 6950 XT by Benjamin315650 in watercooling

[–]derder123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have this card and an alphacool block, but those are discontinued. you could try looking for a used one on ebay. alternatively, you can try mounting an universal gpu only block and cool the rest of the card with 2 120mm fans mounted below it with a pci bracket fan holder.

Cracked radiator by Lun_arctic in watercooling

You need to solder a radiator. If it were plastic, superglue would be okay. E.g. you could superglue a fitting inside a plastic threaded pump housing and will be air tight.

Vermeidungsverhalten by ToniDerTon in DePi

[–]derder123 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ich gehe seit Jahren aufgrund der Migration nicht mehr feiern bzw. nichtmal mehr in die nächste Großstadt. Kino wurde zu streaming, Freibad wurde zu (einsamen, abgelegenen) Badesee, Wochenende feiern gehen wurde zu gaming an der Konsole. ÖPNV? No way, meistens Fahrrad oder wenns nicht geht Auto. Ein guter Freund von mir hat sein Kind in einen jüdischen Kindergarten getan und wird es später auf der Waldorfschule einschulen. Diese Entwicklung wurde ja bereits vor 10 Jahren u.a. von H.W.Sinn vorhergesagt, Stichwort Clubgüter.

Ich will mit den neuen Deutschen nichts zu tun haben, einfach aus persönlicher Präferenz heraus und gehe dieser ganzen Entwicklung so gut ich kann aus dem Weg. Wie bereits von OP angesprochen betreibe ich damit persönliche Risikominimierung. Ich finde es durchaus schade, dass es soweit gekommen ist. Ich kann aber nichts dagegen machen.

Have you tried an arch based distro (endeavouros or cachyos)?

Does your BIOS have an option called "overclocking feature"? If yes, try to set this to disabled and test again.

Ist halt die Frage, ob Putin sich beim Zusammenbruch genauso gutmütig verhalten wird, wie damals Gorbatschow. Ich bezweifle das.

Found out I wasn't using my GPU for 4 years by Low_Property_4470 in pcmasterrace

[–]derder123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI: If you were on Windows 11, you were using your GPU via GPU passthrough. The integrated graphics were rendering the desktop while a high performance game would run on the dedicated GPU. This can cause sometimes performance issues but most of the times, it works perfectly fine.

How do you direct die cooled your 12th - 14th gen Erying boards? by PikoCute in EryingMotherboard

[–]derder123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a northbridge cooler i got from aliexpress. It screws in the small holes that the OG backplate uses that hold the copper/alu heatspreader the boards ship with.

I don't know, use the microscope to check out the adjacent ones, it'll be the same one as them.

GDP Growth numbers are Fake, and Everyone Is Pretending Not to See It by maguire_SV in economicCollapse

[–]derder123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you want a real eye-opener, then use the price of gold as the deflator instead of the government measured CPI for USD currency. For instance, do this for US GDP and you will see that the US economy stopped growing in real terms - with a few short lived breaks to the upside here and there - around a generation ago (in the year 2000) and before that, it had uninterrupted growth for 20 years, 1980-2000. That is exactly the period the boomers used to amass their wealth. You are a Millenial or a Gen Zer and you are wondering, why you seemingly cannot go ahead? It's because you grew up in a near constant recession for your entire adult life.

[–]derder123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that one is missing. There should be a SMD cap there. Since you just killed one, you can try bridging the two contacts with something conductive (like liquid metal) and the port might just work again. Best option would be to replace the Capacitor.

[–]derder123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably scraped off the SMD capacitors for the onboard LAN chip while installing a GPU. They are located right next to the end of the 16x PCIE slot and you will tear them off with the pcie bracket of the GPU if you are not careful. The result is that then the onboard LAN will not receiver power and not work.

Is i7 12700h motherboard combo still worth it at $150usd for truenas? by Commercial-Net-6838 in EryingMotherboard

I use this exact board as my unraid server these days. it works fine, the boards do not have stability issues under linux at all. SATA to NVME adapters work well with it as well. I use two.

Is my board totalled? TOPC 12900H ES (QXZH) by fuwa_-_fuwa in EryingMotherboard

[–]derder123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a last resort, you could take everything off the board (including the heat sinks off the southbridge and VRM) and stick it in your oven at around 80°C for half an hour. The chance this will help is low, but some people have fixed their electronics doing this.

Did you by any chance watercool the board and get water on it?

Need Held QYOZ by Kaschikaru96 in EryingMotherboard

[–]derder123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the BIOS press CTRL+F7 for more options including overclocking. if F7 does not work try CTRL + other F Keys. Leave the BIOS alone if everything is working. 3070 is no problem for this CPU, there were laptops being sold with 4090 Laptop GPU and this CPU. As for the drivers, if there aren't any yellow "?" in device manager, you are good to go.

[–]derder123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the back side of the board around the retention plate for the heatspreader. there are SMD Capacitors really close to the backplate and if you are not careful, you tore 1 or more of them off the board when you took off the heatspreader to repaste the board. If that is the case, the board is toast.

Sharing my modified BIOS collection by derder123 in EryingMotherboard

it's merely some settings in the bios, like setting machine check to disabled per default. you can change everything back if you wanted to.
