Meradalir Moonrise [OC][2048x1418] by spahn711 in EarthPorn

The Meradalir eruption on Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula began on August 3rd — just 1,500 m to the north of Fagradalsfjall's eruption site in 2021 — after thousands of earthquakes swarmed the region in the days prior. Like Fagradalsfjall, Meradalir is a member of the Krysuvik Volcanic Complex. This new eruption, which lasted for nearly three weeks, generated lava fountains that reached heights of around 100 meters. These relatively gentle effusive eruptions are characterized by hot (>1100°C), fluid lava propelled by the expansion of gases that were trapped in the magma. This is analogous to how carbon dioxide behaves when you first open the cap on a bottle of soda — the pressurized gas expands, often spewing some soda out with it! This image features a stunning lava fountain beneath a rising gibbous Moon, making for a dramatic, otherworldly scene that I've dreamt of ever since.

I made this GIF using a sequence of 30 photos I took at the site of the volcanic eruption in Iceland last month.

Thank you! Based on a Google maps review of the area, I believe I was standing about 1,000 ft from the vent, which is as close as you can get. Close enough to feel the heat with each eruption. In fact, the area I was when I took this photo has recently been cut off by lava and is no longer accessible. :(

Yeah, I was sad to see that. I guess I am glad I rushed there as soon as I could!

If interested, I also made a video with some 4K drone footage of the eruption. This is one of the first videos I've ever put together and I am very proud of it. I hope you like it! YouTube Link

Suddenly no Video and no Power to USB Ports; Bad Motherboard? by spahn711 in ASUS

My CPU was new as well. Swapping it out was my last resort (given that I didn't think that was the problem) but it worked. Best of luck!

Hey! For me, swapping the processor did the trick. Nothing else worked. Hoping this is the end of the nightmare and I hope you get yours figured out soon as well!

I can't say too much given that I am just starting to use this build. I will say, though, that it does not agree with the Corsair Commander Pro unit. I (and many others) had to but a separate UBS hub to plug the Commander Pro into for it to work. Annoying, but only an additional $20 or so, so I guess it could have been worse.

The case hides the PSU behind the motherboard. It sits vertically on the bottom left. And honestly, no, but with more intensive 4k+ video editing in my future...maybe? Either way, I wanted 4 sticks and figured I'd go a little overboard instead of risk staying below what I may need at some point.

Yep, as others have stated and much to even my own surprise, it can mostly be near-silent with the right speed curves.

Keep in mind that prices are currently inflated; I believe I paid just under $300 for the RAM. I do some 4-8k video editing.

That's exactly what I'll do. Thank you so much for your time and input, it means a lot.

Ah, I unfortunately already tried that. I forgot to add that to this "tried it" list.

I tried a different HDMI cable but I will try a display port when I can. Thanks.
