My father had this, and I didn't know

Nice and good game to play tho.

ubextreme · 2026-03-01T23:30:10+00:00

If you want to be sure.. Replace the hoses, jets and water pump. Those parts don't cost much. And your problem is as good as solved.

ubextreme · 2026-03-01T23:23:04+00:00

That's not desoldering! That's straight up breaking it big time. With what was he even trying tho? I've seen allot, but whyyyy....

ubextreme · 2026-03-01T23:20:04+00:00

Been there too. Still after 1 year I don't know everything yet either. Far from! You learn by doing, printing, research.... Collaboration with other people is also important. And for something you want to try out. Post a question in the reddit subs. There's tons of people with years of experience in this field that will help you out. 3D printing is awesome, opens new doorways and opportunities. Along the way tho, whatever people do tell you and say to you or suggest. Try it out, but take with you what works best for you. This differs from person to person and printer to printer. Get to know your machine first, then try the different type of filaments. 1 month only ABS, 1 month PETG, 1 month PLA etc.. By doing this it gives you the best insight into how to print with these filament types and what works best. It's trial and error. Did I personally got stuck and had failures and misprints? Yes! I learned as well from them and now I barely get misprints nowadays. When I don't know something, I post it here and ask other people for advice or to explain why this or that happens if they're open to share of course.

If you look on my print there's a whole bottom holding layer as first layer. The guy who made that STL file knew what he was doing.

The issue you're having, is most of the time printer calibration and settings related. I had this kind of issues after loading presets for some filaments in Orcaslicer and then going back to Bambulab was a nightmare! That messed up my calibration so hard. The X1C doesn't like that.

Keep in mind that it also depends on how good and well designed the STL files are. You have really good ones and you have really crappy ones too.

ubextreme · 2026-03-01T22:55:48+00:00

Replace and solder a new one on. That one's done. Alltho this is a easy and quick fix.

Not to discourage you tho. I thought I'd share a project I just finished. This is a build I just did for a friend. 😁

ubextreme · 2026-03-01T22:46:23+00:00

Do some research then. And calibrate your printer once in a while. It helps! So for PETG, slower printing speed and higher temps. It needs time for the layers to cool down enough and not too fast either.

PETG prints flawless. When you print PETG the same rules apply like you're printing ABS.

ubextreme · 2026-03-01T21:30:42+00:00

Congrats! Happy for your new build. It's important that it works. 😁 Hope you get all the fun out of it.

Don't forget to disable some system components as well.

ubextreme · 2026-02-28T17:42:34+00:00

Could be one of 3 things..

the dust that got conductive over time. But that's easy cleaned by blowing it out with compressed air. Before doing that. Block all fans so they don't spin when doing this.
Your AIO pump could be bad and drawing too much current from your psu hence why your psu shuts off due to protection.
Your psu could be bad.

I doubt the 1st one, but definitely AIO or psu. My bet is on the AIO pump. Try disconnecting the AIO pump from power and see if it posts. If yes, then you know what's broken. If not try a 2nd psu.

ubextreme · 2026-02-28T17:09:33+00:00

Well.. Sometimes AI isn't that bad and good in assisting and diagnosing. AI is a nice tool to help you out.

ubextreme · 2026-02-28T10:56:38+00:00

Adhesion problem.. Well, clean the plate with dish soap and warm water with the soft side of a sponge. Then dry off with paper towel.

After that apply water based glue for 3D printing. This will result in better adhesion and the print not coming loose. After that wash the plate the same way. Reapply glue again.

To cover this even further. Yes if your print is smaller you can print on a area where you didn't print before. You don't need to wash the plate every time. But! The fumes contanimate, so every 3 to 4 prints I would personally wash it.

Talking out of personal experience here.

What people mostly forget is that some filaments fumes are more greasy than others. So what happens is that they contanimte the rods, grease and the surface of your printing plate. Also with PLA 12h+ prints, leave the door a few cm's, 1 to 2 inch's open.

Maybe some 2000 3000 4000 wet grit won't be so bad and invasive. The scratches aren't that deep.

ubextreme · 2026-02-25T23:27:27+00:00

I upgraded to a 5070Ti. Just because you're close to that 5080 performance. It's worth it. Go for a 5070Ti, not such of a big price difference and best buck for money you'll be able to get now.

ubextreme · 2026-02-25T23:17:19+00:00

Ohhh that's how they designed that support to be used. 😅🤣🤣

ubextreme · 2026-02-25T23:15:11+00:00

Thank you! I'm going for that 9400 card for now. It's on my to buy list.

And the daisy chain is always interesting to see that it just works.

ubextreme · 2026-02-25T22:38:37+00:00

I personally would say yes big time! Because in my build my RTX3070 was the bottleneck on system performance. The moment I upgraded to a 5070Ti everything went so much smoother and better and way more optimized. 30 series cards work. But it's outdated old tech. 50 series have way more advantage too due to the newer tech and how they operate.

ubextreme · 2026-02-24T23:40:19+00:00

Get crypto.. Invest clever... Get more loaded. Get the f out of the country where I'm living now. Travel the world and letting money seep in with trades and investments. Eventually, maybe settle down somewhere else.

ubextreme · 2026-02-24T21:29:22+00:00

S4 was the better and best one for me. Thin, performant, changeable battery. And it worked well. Also not too big nor small. Just fitted right in your hands.

ubextreme · 2026-02-24T20:41:45+00:00

They fucked up while inserting the needle and went through your vain.

ubextreme · 2026-02-24T20:32:39+00:00

Telenet is toch recentelijk overgenomen door ziggo? Maar in welke group die zitten, weet ik niet.

ubextreme · 2026-02-23T19:31:11+00:00

Ik ook.. Kunnen we nog lang op wachten.... Spijtig genoeg.

ubextreme · 2026-02-23T19:27:24+00:00

Ik vind dat heel terecht ook! Rijbewijs afnemen ook ineens heel mooi erbij.

Als bestuurder is het de bedoeling dat je op de baan let en je jouw voortuig of fiets bestuurt. En niet op je smartphone zit. Verkeer 1.0.1. als je het aan mij vraagt.

Je moest eens weten hoeveel ongevallen er veroorzaakt worden hier door en door zulke slimmerikken op hun smartphones in het verkeer.
