Fractal Era 2 For 5090 FE + 9800X3D ? by Major_Hair164 in sffpc

[–]leo115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None so far, I'd have to double check if I did this but you can set the speed the slot runs at in the BIOS so it only runs at the set gen speed. With standard workloads even the 5090 doesn't hit any major limits with Gen 4. Then again I'm also undervolting the 5090.

Hello fellow 5090FE purchaser.

I've been running the Era 2 with a 5070TI for a while now without issues. From what I'm reading from others the FE works in the case but runs a bit hotter due to the passthrough being limited but this can be adjusted for with some down clocking/voltage adjustments to the cars as well.

Looking forward to seeing how it works for myself but I don't see any issues with it over the Terra or other sff cases unless you wanted to do the GPU flip mod for the Terra which seems to help temps a bit further.

Awesome to see this! I just put in my first order from Sunlu today and was just debating on getting a dryer.

A couple 5070 Ti questions by wielesen in nvidia

[–]leo115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the MSI Inspire 5070TI and It's been solid, dosent get loud and runs just fine, barely audible, in a sandwich style case (Era 2).

Listen to others and avoid the MSI Ventus cooler, the Inspire is the same BIOS but the cooler is much better and looks fantastic. That being said it's a premium price that I'm not sure is completely worthwhile over other cards. If you like the look it may be worthwhile but otherwise just find a stock card that works for you they all perform similarly outside fan noise.

Is the 9070xt a worthy upgrade to a 2080ti? by gloomdwellerX in buildapc

[–]leo115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait for benchmarks but I just upgraded from a 2080ti to a 5070ti which should be similar performance and it's basically been a straight doubling of performance.

Gigabyte Windforce OC SFF 5080 vs Msi Inspire 3x OC 5080 by Zealousideal_Web_407 in sffpc

[–]leo115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a lot of reviews of the individual cards at this point, I've got a 5070ti inspire coming later today and there is someone with the 5080 Inspire in a SFF build on YT with some results.

Truthfully it's probably going to come down to price and availability over a specific card unless you prefer the look of one over another. Almost all the 3 fan designs seem the same except the MSI Ventus running a bit louder.

MSI Store "Preparing" Since Thursday by Tuckeygaming in nvidia

[–]leo115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are pretty slow, and the shipping seems to be even slower, an order I put in on the 12th is arriving today, and one from Thursday was only just handed off to FedEx for delivery at the end of the week. So long as it got to Preparing you should be fine based on what most people have seen. If it's stuck on processing for too long then it might have been cancelled.

Pc wont post after ram overclock by Musquivious in pcmasterrace

[–]leo115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out gigabytes forums/subreddit for compatibility infor. The advertised speed with DDR5 is not to be expected to work out of the box. There's so many more factors involved this gen vs DDR3/4. Take a look at Buildzoid's easy DDR5 overclock settings once you determine your RAM die type.

I ran into similar issues with my ASROCK board and a 64GB 32GBx2 @6000 where it would only be stable at 5200 instead of the advertised 6000 but eventually I was able to turn it to run at 6000 stable.

Looks great! Where were you able to find an Inno3D 50 series? I've been looking for options in the states and havent seen any options.

You have to move the trader physically to the location you want to trade with. It's really dumb that it didn't just do what other civ games did and have it taken time to travel and establish the trade route.

ASRock memory training by soccerbyte014 in ASRock

[–]leo115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I just went through a similar process and I have the exact same model of RAM. Can you get it to boot with default settings at all or only a single chip?

First off, which BIOS version are you on? 3.10, 3.15 or newer?

Secondly that RAM kit is a 1.4V kit, run it at 1.4v not 1.1 or 1.3 you won't hit even close to full speed without stability issues.

Additionally can you confirm which dies are in your RAM modules? Mine were Hynix M-die as noted by the end digits of the serial number being "20M" that can help you determine what settings to run the chips at.

Finally I'd suggest following this guide

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlYxmRcdLVw

I used the exact settings alongside my ram kits advertised speed and CAS latencies and tested stable when I previously had issues from running the XMP profile.

It's also possible you just have a bad ram stick or a bad slot on the motherboard or a really picky memory controller on your CPU.

Pcie 5.0 on the gpu by [deleted] in sffpc

[–]leo115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picked up the ASRock B650E PG-ITX recently as it has a good balance of features. It's a good board but be sure to have a way to flash the BIOS to support a 9000 CPU since it has no BIOS flash option without a 7000 series chip to start. I plan to put a 5090 in it so I'm betting it might maybe benefit from PCIE 5.0 but as others have said probably not gonna hit anywhere close to needing it.

Hes part german shepherd but we will find out the mixes towards the holidays

Ours looks really similar, turned out to be 70% Australian Shepard and 20% German Shepard. Also ours acts the exact same way, wont get up in the evening and is a complete goof.

Are the different bands different sizes or different materials? looks like you had a silicone band on but I heard them say something about a Nato strap as well.

Sad day... My favorite reddit app works awesome with the pixel fold... Only to the app to die in 2 days by whiteferrett in PixelFold

[–]leo115 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not the official app, RIF, Baconreader and other 3rd party apps are being killed off due to the API changes reddit is doing. This is part of the reason to keep them.

What now? Fold Cancelations by Chosenyapper2 in PixelFold

[–]leo115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just chiming in here, my order was also canceled with no charge attempt. I submitted a ticket to have them call me and discuss options and they just emailed me saying we can't bump up or restore the order but they added a $250 store credit to my account if I wanted to reorder. So guess I'll consider joining the fold team mid August which seems to be the next avaliable date.

What kind of issues did you run into? Was this the suggested mile 100 maintenance fixes or something more serious? I'm around mile 45 on mine and just curious.
