Welcome aboard. Now hurry up and get us a picture of FRB .

An example of a medium duty 15' flex-wing rotary cutter. A "stump jumper" installed on that same unit. The output shaft and splines on a much smaller "el cheapo" single spindle cutter with the stump jumper removed. That high tensile electric fence wire "nest" should not be there and is why this gearbox failed. The wire worked its way into the bottom shaft seal, let the oil leak out, customer ran it without checking oil level till BOOM!

The "stump jumper" on the underside of a flex-wing rotary cutter (AKA 15' bush hog). The gearbox output shafts are usually both splined and tapered. If properly installed and maintained, they don't come off easily most of the time (I think the OEM's and dealer techs are both hesitant to coat them in anti-seize because of the inherent danger of something like that coming off while the unit is in use. I will try to get a picture of one of the assemblies for reference. Incidentally, I envisioned this thread being another "chit chat chain" where everyone can plop some of their "unique" encounters .

I'm very impressed with realistic movement of her skeleton!

That is my impression as well, especially "latency". Hopefully J7 or one of the other resident pros will chime in with some additional tips/tricks/wisdom when they are able. In the meantime, this is an excellent resource: (2) [Official] AMD Ryzen DDR4 24/7 Memory Stability Thread | Overclock.net This is also handy: How to Use the Ryzen DRAM Calculator 1.7.3 - YouTube. The video covers the use of Thaiphoon Burner as well as DRAM Calc. If you wanted to forgo the suggestions of DRAM calc, this would be a good place to start: Update DDR4 OC Guide.md · integralfx/MemTestHelper@a347a51 · GitHub (its pretty dense, and far more than I have been able to absorb to date).

I think that kit is usually Hynix Djr, but could be Samsung C-die. Sticker on the IC's + Thaiphoon Burner should reveal most of their secrets if you decide to "push" them. Thank you for humoring me.

I need to get the Posi-Lock 216's out.

When you have a moment, can you hit us with the full part number for the DRAM? I love a detailed write up (as you know from reading my own ramblings), so thank you .

I am using the "new" AMD chipset drivers myself. I cannot speak to SATA reliability as I have the SATA ports disabled in BIOS. I have not experienced any USB/General Performance issues yet. However, there is some "chatter" in various threads over at OCN about a decrease in performance after installing them (and the inability to rollback to previous version by simple uninstall/reinstall). The amount of performance lost being reported is easily attributable to temperature differences at the time of benching (150-200 CBR23 MT points for example). Basically, too early to tell with any certainty IMO.

A "stock" (for GPU settings anyway) Time Spy run for s#!*s and giggles. P.S. There's chatter over at OCN about those very fresh chipset drivers I'm running resulting in about 150-200 points less in CBR23 MT. So, we'll see how all that shakes out in the days to come.

A "state of the union" type update. I've arrived at my "fully stable" daily driver OC settings. DRAM settings verified with 50 cycles of TestMem5 (1usmus_v3), 6 cycles of TestMem5 (extreme@anta777), and 48hrs OCCT (80%/Auto instruction set). PBO2 settings verified with more time in corecycler than an Intel fanboy would be willing to endure (SSE/AVX/AVX2/ALL FFTs), 24hrs looped CBR23 MT, 24hrs OCCT CPU stress (small/extreme/variable/auto/auto). PBO2 PPT 300, TDC 160, EDC 225. +25MHz (5075), scalar x10. Curve optimizer cores/counts: BIOS 3801 (AGESA 1203_C). Chipset drivers Rev. 4.03.03.431. 20⁰C ambient air / 22⁰C coolant / "daily driver" fan profile for the benchmarks below. I've elected to forgo dynamic overclock switching for daily driving for the time being. As such, I left some performance on the table. While PBO2 alone forces one to choose between max single thread or max multithread or something in the middle (what I opted for), I believe it does a better job than I can at managing the CPU under all the conceivable loads that it might face. Were this a system intended for a specific task, I think DOC switching could be beneficial, but the user would need to keep a tight rein on the programs being launched. Now it's time for me to make a decision. Do I spend the next month trying to improve on the DRAM settings that I plagiarized from J7, or do I jump ship, download More Power Tool, and have fun squeezing my GPU? I'm pretty confident as to which one will be the most fun, but I think long term I'd benefit more from learning the ins and outs of all the various DRAM settings and how they interact. I'll sleep on it for at least tonight.

This just in, scientists use machine learning to continuously calculate the percentage chance the human species will eliminate itself by any possible method. Project manager Ima Doosh indicated the "Doomsday Clock v2.0" will output a value to the Web in real time. The team will continue to add new accelerators to the system for increased accuracy as stock becomes available. Mr. Doosh has yet to respond to our inquiry regarding the possibility that the power consumed by the system results in a statistically significant increase in the likelihood of catastrophic global climate change and subsequent geopolitical instability and as such constitutes a positive feedback loop.

I understand, they would be loud for the volume they would move.

Optimal or not, I adopted the "rads are always intake" mantra for my case. Also:

Aye, is it a rebrand of ROCKIT Delid & Relid Tool Kit - Intel CPUs – RockItCool? I am not well versed enough in these products to tell.

"Copper Upgrade Kit" = not exactly what I envisioned! Please, if not a terrible inconvenience, hit us with some before and after temps .

@Sir Beregondthanks, now I gotta watch Pulp Fiction .

Many of us plop details of our acquisitions down here:

EHW is where I talk to my friends. OCN is where I "grind" materials for the cool sword I want to craft. Speaking of which, I'm only on page 75 of 320 in [Official] AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT Owner's Club | Overclock.net, so back to work I go .

Unless they only ever intended to mount it on a plaque on the back wall of their YouTube set after the obligatory half arsed LN2 run(s)? This thing seems more like a high priced "collectable" than piece of hardware for the "enthusiasts". A deluxe NFT if you will.

made me think of:

Another "preview". They usually do a pretty good job of testing/comparing these features when they are released.
