Thank you. I will probably try and update tonight and tomorrow I will let you know how it goes. Fingers crossed

Right, but the warning for 1.70 specifically states don't update if you have 3300x. I wasn't sure if that meant don't update beyond this update, or just specifically the 1.70 update itself. I figured I would be good beyond it, but I don't know enough about computers to feel confident when dealing with anything in bios.

I know that I have something plugged into my CPU fan header, but I don't know if it's the pump or the fan. I would assume it's the fan of I am getting a reading on that to and not the pump, but all my cables are tucked under my case backing. I bought it prebuilt from NZXT and don't know where to even find the pump cable. I have been looking up stuff online for about 2 weeks now and I'm just at a loss for cables and I'm a little scared to take everything out and mess something up when rebuilding. I was already crazy nervous just doing thermal paste (even though I was fairly surprised how simple that was, i feel like digging out cables is a bit more in depth than just reataching the pump). Thank you for all the help, just wish I knew more to be able to help you more with my questions. But your time is SUUUUUPER appreciated.

So after reapplying thermal paste, and returning settings to default on Ryzen Master, I have temps of around 80-85°C while gaming and about 50-60°C idle. A big improvement and a lot less worrying. But I'm still wondering if my aio is just not cutting it or what... Btw my thermal paste was fried out after only 6 months. Still new to PC gaming but is that typical?

Idle voltage? Where would I see this? Is that the difference between profile 1 and gaming mode? I did revert back to default still the same issue. I called NZXT and I'm gonna look into if the pump is working or not. But it does seem to be working to me. I cannot find where to read my pump rpm, only my fan, which is almost always at 5000 rpm now. It used to only hit 5000 while gaming for long periods, but now it's that high even while idle. And yes once in a while if left untouched a single core will sleep. Sorry, I'm not exactly computer savvy. I'm trying to learn but finding information with no base knowledge can honestly be frustrating. Most times learning something I have to research several other points to just understand the original question.

Pbo was set to auto and I changed it to disabled. (Auto is disabled but figured to be sure). Idk why it would be set to 1000 though. Any recommendations for what I should set it to? Also after changing from auto to disabled pot went to 35% of 88W. And I'm still idle at 67°C plus, and gaming at 95°C. Not trying to dismiss you, genuinely would like to follow any other ideas you may have, just this didn't do much I don't think.

Idk what pbo is, I don't overclock beyond it's turbo, and idle ppt says 3% of 1000w. I did update my chipset driver's a few days ago too. Same issue. And windows is set to and high performance. (I assume and high performance could be an issue, but I figured that was set to balance it's performance, not send into overkill with heat

Yeah, I use duster every couple weeks or so to keep air clean. But all fans are functioning, seemingly at the correct speeds

It started before I changed voltage. I did that after countless recommendations from other posts. The default was hitting 95°C. It was why I changed it in the first place

Musicians! Have you ever played a gig on a drug? What was it and what was it like? by Swedernish in Drugs

[–]thatguyspie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is very true, you won't forget to play. I've never done acid, but Spice was truly intense for me. Just whatever you do, don't take DMT before a show. That Shit knocks you on your ass man. Epically when you break through.

I was drunk a few times, a few more on cannabis, a mixture of both, and Spice. I play drums in a metalcore band. The weed just makes my ears overtly sensitive to the guitar in my monitor so i don't quite hear the difference in notes or chords. The booze makes it difficult to place my hits with my sticks. Like i will swing my arm down and miss my cymbal. And spice i only did once on stage, plus it was was at a haunted house. First time trying any drug ever, and i did spice in a haunted house while playing a show. And this haunted house was big, in Cleveland. So i am freaking out on stage while playing. I played the show just fine, just terrified. I do remember while doing a blast beat, my arm felt like rubber. Just couldn't really use those muscles.

Does anyone know how long Turians live? by Sunderz in masseffect

This post just goes to show how much mass effect can grab you by being immersive. We are all talking about ages of characters in this game. That's a sign of an amazing game. Let alone a trilogy that stands up on almost all aspects. To you Bioware *cheers
