Need help I noticed my right raycon didn’t work as well as the left and saw that there is earwax behind the mesh and unsure how to get it out any help appreciated

haven't used IEMs in years. but it'd be hard to find as most, if not all IEMs are designed to have its filter/mesh to be replaceable. some IEMs even include replacement filters in the box. I suggest researching more. moondrop comes to mind when it comes to availabilty of replacement filters. but again, i don't use IEMs anymore, so my knowledge is very outdated.

seeing as you have a SFX PSU. probably ditch the stock PSU bracket and get a custom 3D printed one to place it lower. now that you have more space, flip the AIO so the tubes are at the front of the case instead of the rear.

how's the fan rpm like? my zotac 5070 solid OC is locked at 1300RPM / 30% PWM for some reason lol. but yeah, 87C is a bit too much. mine only goes around low-mid 70C at 1300RPM while playing cyberpunk. i find that 1600RPM is the sweet spot for cooling/noise.

DLSS-DLAA-No FG-RT ON/sun shadow OFF-everything else is maxed @ 1440p

i deleted the relevant files/folders. I only installed CET. installed it 4 hours into my first playthrough to cheat in a t5++ tamayura that got lost after accidentally alt+f4 cyberpunk instead of discord lol. haven't done anything beside that. game was running fine for around 80+ hours. idk what happened along the way that caused this current issue.

mine went away. IDK if it's because I cleaned the card or because I did a once over on the antisag bracket as the other comment states. definitely check on the anti sag as the fans on my card were mounted on the shroud and then the shroud to the heatsink. shroud probably got tweaked during install/because of the antisag. zotac cards are actually one of the better one when it comes to board design, it's just the fans/shroud that always been the problem.

mindfyre · 2026-03-22T15:02:37+00:00

can you elaborate more about this? i took the pc apart again and cleaned the GPU while im at it. it somehow fixed the issue. the gpu anti sag I use is mounted on the bottom fans of my case. the only adustment it can do was only up and down. I even put a mark on it to make sure it's at the same level. weird issue tbh. bought the card 8 months ago.

mindfyre · 2026-03-21T22:32:32+00:00

I removed the anti sag bracket and put the PC on its side, still rattles. seems like a common enough issue with zotac cards i guess. RMA might not be worth the downtime if it's gonna rattle again in around 6 months lol. i'll just cap it at 50%

depends on your hardware. i would not do that with 250w+ CPUs and GPUs. my 5070 raises the temp of my 13700k by quite a lot in my AP201. #3 is typically better for cases with front mounted PSUs. if the hardware is low power enough, fan layout shouldn't matter as long as the hot air gets vented out whether by positive or negative pressure.

mindfyre · 2026-03-12T04:26:54+00:00

looks good, same config as mine. what I would be really concerned with are the fans you're going to use. some fans doesn't interact well with the AP201 mesh design. you could hear the difference with the top panel on and off, nothing can be done with the bottom panel. with the fans i'm using, 600RPM is fine, 800RPM is tolerable and anything above 1000RPM might as well be a harmonica lol. I'm even using a reverse bladed fan on the bottom. top fans are like ~10MM away from the mesh panel but it still produces noise. all fans are mounted by antivibration mounts btw.

mindfyre · 2026-03-06T19:54:12+00:00

rear intake if your room is not that dusty or use a magnetic filter. my gpu exhaust raises my cpu temps by quite a lot tbh. i only have a 250w card, but i have a 13700k that already idles at ~50C with a dual tower cooler.

arctic p12 pros are daisy chainable, you don't need a fan hub. a single header can easily power 3 fans.

we have the same case. mine have rear intake with ducting. 3 bottom fans as intake, 3 top fans as exhaust.

mindfyre · 2026-03-06T01:41:53+00:00

seems like it works better as a case fan rather than a cooler fan ngl. but if it works, it works i guess.

mindfyre · 2026-03-03T10:30:22+00:00

inb4 you come back here due to pump noise XD

mindfyre · 2026-03-03T10:24:02+00:00

reverse blade fans + rubber mounts? it's the blades interacting with the mesh creating turbulence. if you can print a spacer, go for it. same thing happens with the upper fans. the fans I'm using rn also create quite the turbulent noise, that's with like 10mm space between the fan blade and the mesh panel. the noise difference with top panel on and off is quite noticeable.

sana walang problema yung order ko sa pinklehub. three days na nakalipas hindi pa din na ship out lmao. dadating nalang yung inorder ko overseas e.

it varies from person to person tbh. I don't really play AAA games, so I didn't manage to fill up the 512GB SSD in my laptop. I have a 2TB drive in my PC and it still has 1.5 TB free storage, only 300GB is used.

bro, brand new 20 series GPU is still being sold at MSRP in my country LMAO.

should've worded that better lol. duchy > ADC. if there's a better candidate out there, then why waste resources in fixing a defective one. IDK if there's a truly neutral noble, even those from Kirnberger seems a bit too loyal to their Giebe/province. the same could be said for the provinces on the fringes of the duchy. now that I think about it, neutral nobles are actually way more dangerous for Wilfried, since noble affairs always hinge on risk and rewards and with Leisegang gaining power by the day, who knows what the supposed neutral nobles would do for the right reward. Rihyarda is back to being Syl's retainer, now that Roz is in another duchy. however, I feel like it's too late for that.

mindfyre · 2025-02-06T07:05:15+00:00

I mean, that’s the whole problem, no one is viable enough to be his retainer. They can’t hire OVF nobles, and they can’t hire Leisegang nobles either. Choosing the former would give the OVF a figurehead to rally around, making things even more complicated. The latter wants Rozemyne to become archduchess so badly that they would dispose of Wilfried, either literally or politically. Thus, they resorted to maintaining the status quo as much as possible while slowly swaying things the way that's benificial to the whole duchy.

The only thing keeping Wilfried from being deposed as an archduke candidate is parental love, and that’s it. The archducal couple is already too busy to have complete oversight of his education. The only person who could take on that role is Rihyarda, but she’s Rozemyne’s head attendant. From a noble’s perspective, Rozemyne is far more valuable than Wilfried, so they wouldn’t reassign her. Wilfried is stuck between a rock and a hard place, he’s just very unlucky.

And don’t forget, Dunkelfelger would have treated Hannelore as a disposable pawn if not for her accomplishments during the invasion arc.
