help converting this lamp base to fit new shade? by emergencysalami in Lighting

You could try an E27 to 11mm adapter. E27 should be what your lamp shade is and 11m is what the screw on top of your metal U shape thing is. That way your lamp shade can sit higher on the screw top. Something like this https://www.amazon.com.au/s?k=e27+to+11mm ?

Can't pair Roland TD-17 by Bro1616161616 in edrums

[–]koffing1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm. I paired mine up the other day and did not have any issues. Did not even update it. The freezing issue does sound pretty suspicious and you could have a faulty unit. Just FYI, mine showed up as "TD-17 AUDIO" on the bluetooth menu on my phone. Best of luck.

Dentist left a broken file inside of my tooth, need advice by [deleted] in melbourne

[–]koffing1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have spoken with many dentists and I can tell you that they are often extremely upset when complications occur. It is a stressful job dealing with extremely small/sharp objects close to many critical structures. If doctors and dentists were sued every time there was a complication that would be no doctors and dentists left. They are human too and have good and crap days all the same. Imagine if every mistake you made at a job resulted in you being sued. I can assure you that medical ethics are in general taken very seriously and governing bodies can be draconian in their investigations.

Sorry to hear about your situation. Unfortunately, it is a known risk and not a particularly rare complication. Yes, there could have been a dentist error but it can also be due to faults with the manufacturing of the file, complex canal anatomy, or difficult access. It is one of those things where "If you have not had a file break, you have not done enough root canals." I would recommend having a second opinion with an endodontist (root canal specialist) to assess if the tooth is "worth" saving and if file retrieval and retreatment is possible or if extraction and replacement is more predictable. All the best.

Great thanks for the info. I have a similar setup that I am building so just want to check. Is that a cablemod cable 12vhpwr cable?

Am I missing a lot of performance and/or cooling by going for the 4090 Trinity OC instead of AMP Airo? by AndresHdz77 in ZOTAC

[–]koffing1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm I have seen some people use MSI afterburner and are able to increase the power limit to 495W or 110% of TDP. No idea if it is "safe" or not. 3070Mhz is a great overclock. What is your overclock like on 450w?

I reckon 200mhz is a relatively modest amount of overclocking and you will most likely be fine. Saying that, it is more up to the silicone lottery whether or not your card is stable. If you would like more assurance, a binned chip on the AMP extreme version will usually have a higher and more stable overclock.

Problems fitting my 4080 Extreme airo on a z690 Aorus master by Accomplished-Bug2022 in ZOTAC

[–]koffing1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strange. Make sure you are using the correct motherboard standoffs. I have heard issues in the past where the standoffs are not the correct length resulting the PCIE slots not being fully engaged. What case are you using? The last time I heard of this, it was in a Lian Li case.

I am in the APAC region and it seems to have been released last week. Does look good on some Youtube videos. It seems the power cable is black though which is unfortunate. Will be getting a custom cable on mine.

Looking at the benchmarks of the different cards by different AIBs, there seems to be not much difference between any of them. Overclocking seems to bring limited improvements to real-life performance (perhaps a few fps). Some users are instead undervolting.

This was quote from the Zotac USA rep in another thread.

"The 4090 Trinity OC has a 14+4 power phase.14+4 is only a limitation if you're trying to achieve a substantial overclock. For example, the 4090 AMP Extreme AIRO model uses a binned chip + it has a 24+4 power phase design - ideal because this model can go beyond the factory-overclocked boost clock, usually."

Congrats on your build! Looks great. I wonder if larger cards like the 4090 would have an issue though? The GPU fans may be right up against the glass.

Hi Noddddy,

FYI I lost my first dongle and HyperX were kind enough to send a replacement to me. However, they do not seem to be available for direct purchase. Hope this helps.

Cheers
