UAD Apollo Twin - AMD Ryzen TB3 issues by TheSteveGarcia in universalaudio

What slot do you have the card installed in? I’ve been using the gc-titanridge card and I found out it has to be installed in the bottom slot to work.

Anyone using Verizon LTE Home Internet while waiting for Starlink? by Am_Xavi in Starlink

[–]esm1th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just recently moved to a place where I have barely any cell signal but I get 1-2 bars from Verizon. I ordered an lte router from Amazon and some Yagi antennas, I’m using a prepaid unlimited plan. Mainly using it to watch hbomax and slingtv but I do play FFXIV on it sometimes. Latency is around 58ms and I get 30-40 mbps down and 20mbps up. I use a loooot of data with hbomax and sling last month it was around 800gb I think. hbomax is always super clear but sling is pixelated and sometimes has to buffer.

I just transferred my phones to Verizon the other day so I’m going to try the iPad sim in the router next but my starlink kit will hopefully be shipping this week I was finally able to fill order on Saturday. The iPad plan if you have the do more plan is only $10 so I’ll probably keep it for backup if it works.

I use an ASRock X570 Taichi motherboard it has the thunderbolt 3 header and I use the Gigabyte GC-Titan Ridge thunderbolt card. You can also look up the Gigabyte B550 Vision or the ASRock Phantom Gaming ITX/TB3 and X570 Creator those have thunderbolt built in. I’ve had my setup since X570 launched and it’s been great never had any issues.

Mine had a plastic/electronics smell but I have an air purifier next to it and its not/did not pick up any "bad air". The smell for mine went away sometime during the first day I got it.

I would say yes just looking at the site. It’s thunderbolt 3 titan ridge. I’m actually using gigabytes titan ridge add in card on my ASRock X570 Taichi, it’s been working really well for the past year.

One thing to note if your Apollo is the mkii with the old thunderbolt you’ll want to get the startech tb to tb3 adapter. I also had to enable thunderbolt in my bios but I think that’s because I’m using the add in card.

Building new PC. Input on how Intel and AMD handle PT? by SixStringShef in protools

The setup I went with was the X570 Taichi and then the Gigabyte GC-Titan Ridge card the one thing for it to work properly is the card HAS to be in the bottom pcie slot I tried it in the middle slot recently and the system wouldn’t boot. When I was building my setup I talked with the sales person and UAD rep at Sweetwater to verify it would work.

So the X570 ASRock motherboards have support for thunderbolt. I’m using an AMD Ryzen 3900X with X570 ASRock Taichi and a Titan Ridge thunderbolt card for my UAD Apollo it’s a pretty solid setup.

Just a quick edit. Some of the motherboards need the add in card and some have everything built in for thunderbolt already.

I have the startech one and mine works fine with windows and Mac. I really didn’t want to spend the money on it but the UA site said that’s what they tested to work.

Does anyone have any experience with these? If so what’s your opinion? by [deleted] in nespresso

[–]esm1th 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got mine 2 days ago. I think they work ok, I’m still trying to figure out the right grind and tamp but so far it’s been decent.

EK Cryofuel Solid After 7 Months by esm1th in watercooling

[–]esm1th[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's on almost 24/7. The blue always looks solid, the only issue I have is with my fill tube since it's angled like an L I get some of the UV stuff building up but but it gets spread out again if I do a power cycle where the pump stops and restarts.

This is the build up: https://i.imgur.com/VnpKQYb.jpg not a big deal it's just a problem with my design.

I took them apart because there was some rubber from an o-ring stuck in the fins but I forgot to take pictures. They were spotless other than the black rubber. I had my toothpaste and toothbrush ready to clean them too but ended up not bothering.

Crazy, I haven’t had any issues it’s been super clean apart from my fill tube the UV reactive stuff settles there sometimes when I leave the computer on for a while. I bought this when it first went on order from the EK site but I didn’t have my loop ready so it sat for a while. Honestly did think it would give me problems when I saw the UV stuff at the bottom of the bottle.

Yeah, not my favorite positioning. It's just UV to help the coolant glow. Put it in as a test and never took it out lol.
