So. For the Kaby Lake i5 Cinebench competition, I bought some G.skill Flare X B-Die for the system. Hard fail. It is 3200 14-14-14 but in my wife's 5900x rig with the same kit it does 3733 and I even OCed it out of ratio to 4266 once. With the Kaby Lake setup (see "mom's rig" in my signature), and some timings I found, it wouldn't do 3800 let alone 4000, which is what I was hoping for. Unfortunately the highest it clocks is 3333MHz 14-14-14-35. The system will do 5GHz but with a Thermalright low profile blow-down cooler, it was hitting 90c+ and said it was throttling running Cinebench, but I didn't actually see the core clocks drop at all in hwinfo64. I'll have to try 5ghz realtime priority and 4.8ghz as well and see which score is better, and then submit the better one. Speaking of which, isn't the competition starting today???

Hey can this be moved to the resolved bugs forum? Every time I have encountered a bug or site error I have posted here in Chit Chat General and I just realized there's a dedicated bugs forum. I didn't realize we had one. Might also be a good idea to make a "Site Questions" forum as I've also posted questions here like when I wanted to know how to link a gallery to my rig. Thanks.

Only people in true love understand this one:

Awesome. I *hope* and think this is the cause of the error I was getting. Thanks Enterprise, you're the best admin we could possibly ask for.

Can you recommend a good IR gun, @J7SC_Orion?

Oh okay gotcha. The one I looked at was just called Dynamic Evo XL. I didn't realize it was a different version of the O11D. Did you take a look at the anidees link?

Hmm, Evo XL says it only supports 280mm radiators (at least from a glance), it also looks mostly identical to the O11D. Unless it's bigger. What size radiator do you use, it looked like a 360mm on the backside of your case? If you want a pretty nice case, that also has a cube option, check out anidees! We have two cases from them and they've been great. Airflow is not the best but mine basically has two filters in the front (thin vents on the side of the front glass, a removable 360 dust filter held on magnetically inside, with 3x 120mm fans behind it mounted inside the case). Their fans are nice too and seemingly dust proof. Come January I will have had this case for 5 years, and it stays really clean inside for the most part. I dust it every month or two and it stays really clean. PC Case Archives - anidess ANIDEES.COM Take a look at their different cases. The only problem with them is that they don't have much US availability, they used to have a limited selection on Amazon, but had everything on Newegg. Now on Newegg I only see one case and its a full tower. I even tried caseking.de and AliExpress, no go. Tbh I don't know where you can get their products anymore, but if you can find them they are worth it.

Got a Kailh switch tester. The Box Summer are really nice. Kind of like a modified Box Jade. Here's the guide:

That's really nice. You have the Lian Li 011 Dynamic Der8auer edition right?

Process was basically: Click top right hamburger, click rigbuilder, click create and view rigs, went to Ai Crystal 2023 and clicked edit pencil, changed power supply to update it, go to the bottom and click show rig in signature, click save. Then I was presented with the error screenshots I posted. Again I think its possibly because I had a keyboard line that was really long listing three keyboards, what they are, what switches and keycaps they had, etc. When creating the new one I have for Ai Crystal, I did run into the max text in a field and it was fairly short. So it may have been that long line in the old one. That's my best guess but who knows, I'm good now anyway.

Well, I figured maybe it was just buggy as it wasn't showing in my signature either. There was a very long (like longer than you can type in the fields now) keyboard list and I wonder if that was doing it. But I couldn't even toggle it to show in my signature whereas last I knew I had set it and my mom's rig to be visible in my sig and neither were showing. Anyway I just recreated my rig from scratch, linked my album to it, toggled it's visibility and reordered it and now everything is fine. Unfortunately I just deleted the old one that wasn't working.

So I got around it by just remaking my rig. But I have an idea as to what is causing it and I think it may be lines that were too long that were created quite a while ago, I am going to remove that item and see if it works.

I can't really record a video, sorry. I'm not sure what to use on the phone that's free. And because of Ultrawide resolution on desktop, I can't there either. I can say that I just tried and it still isn't working. If you want I can list steps I'm taking or something instead of a video.

Sorry for the large image, but I am getting the same result/error on desktop. In Firefox with all the same addons. EDIT: Just tried on Chromium with no addons and the same thing is happening.

@ENTERPRISE Having trouble changing my rig, Ai Crystal 2023, on mobile. Trying to change the rigs title to just Ai Crystal as well as change my power supply. When I click "save" at the bottom I get this: I've tried disabling all my addons and no dice. In Firefox mobile using WebRTC blocker, CanvasBlocker, Ublock Origin, Ghostery and Privacy Badger. I'm going to try on desktop now and see if I can edit my rig there.

Here is a rarely seen image of the back of my rig, with the cable management done by Queen @bridgypoo. Everything has to be flat mounted because I believe the clearance on the back of the case to the glass is only 0.5mm. I know the bottom middle looks horrible but I have three platter drives there that you can't even see, then on the left there's a lot of unused wires from the case like the case top USB 3.0 connector, the USB 2.0 connector, and the sound connector all of which go to the mobo but they are not connected for the purpose of cable management. Then the big box on the top left is the anidees fan controller/RGB controller with a ton of thin proprietary connectors for fans going to it. Anyway, we got the new PSU in (Superflower Leadex VII XG 1300w Gold), have the machine folding and all is well.

We just checked the two 8-pin PCI-E connectors on the backside of the power supply unit. They are in all the way, just fine. With that and the within limits bend on the 12VHPWR on the GPU side, and it being on a separate rail, this thing should hopefully run my folding@home 24/7 365 OC'ed in Linux.

I measured the length of the cable before the bend and it was about 1 3/4" so according to those charts, it should be ok (I hope). I am shocked@piois not in this thread making fun of me I fried another one bro, a Seasonic Vertex GX 1200w that was only a year and 3 months old. Lol.

I did this yesterday and it was fine, cable is fully attached to the GPU. Now I'm paranoid about the 8-pins on the PSU side. Might have to check those and make sure they're in all the way. Yeah, something definitely needs to be done about this. The government should get involved with how dangerous these things are and can be. People could end up burning their houses down at the worst or frying a way overpriced $1700 GPU at the least. My stock MSI BIOS on the 2nd "performance" setting via the switch on it is 450w, with 108% power limit being the maximum in Windows, and 480w being the maximum in Linux and I presume Windows as well. I did (notoriously) run the Galax 666w BIOS and folded on it 24/7 for like 4 months on that BIOS with a 2014-era Cooler Master V1000 (Seasonic) power supply. MSI includes a 12VHPWR dongle to three 8-pin PCI-E power. I was supposed to run three separate wires individually connected to the PSU to the connectors on that dongle, but I was stupid and lazy and daisy chained one of them. @bridgypoo pointed out the whole time that we should run another separate wire, but I was like "oh no my PSU is Seasonic and high quality and it'll be fine". These were NOT ATX 3.0 or whatever PCI-E 8 pins so their max wattage should be 150w, and 150w x3 is 450, just enough to meet the power limit of the card. I ended up frying cables and ports on the back of that PSU. Anyway, I have a new Leadex 1300w unit since my Seasonic Vertex GX died, we got approved for RMA though. Its powering my folding just fine so far. I do not use the 666w bios, but I do raise the power limit and overclock the card using an app in Linux. See picture: Note the power draw in GreenWithEnvy. Folding takes 350w, to 400w max according to this. If I look at the Kill-a-Watt meter that just the box is plugged into, it's usually drawing 450-550 total. (And it's a 1300w psu) This new PSU is dual rail, the Seasonic Vertex we are RMAing was not. I don't fold on the CPU, just on the 4090. Sorry that was so long. I'm about to turn my rig off, take the glass off and measure. Thanks for this.

I'll have to measure it later then. Thanks again. I will get to everyone else's posts later when I have time. Rep all around.

Will do. I used to watch Gamer's Nexus and a lot of other YouTube channels, but haven't really since 2020. I'll watch it.

Thank you so much @Slaughtahouse!!! Will definitely double check to make sure it's seated fully.

Hey all. I got a brand new Superflower Leadex VII XG 1300w powering my kit currently. My use includes folding pretty much 24/7. I wanted to get opinions or make sure what we've done is safe. Basically, we needed to kink the wire below the 12VHPWR connector to keep the connector itself straight, and to be able to put my side glass window on without it pushing down on the 12VHPWR at the actual connection which is bad. Afaik on the GPU side it connects to two PCI-E 8-pin connectors and those are straight but in their advertising they said "safer design to prevent bend issue", implying that bending the PCI-E on the PSU side is okay. Wondering if bending the wire like we have on the GPU side is okay too. Opinions or suggestions welcome, or even just a validation that what I'm doing is going to be safe long term for a relatively high demand scenario. Thanks in advance

This seems to be showing the current season stats. Any way it could be all-time stats? (That way I'm higher than Luke)
