    Advice Request: 14700k + NH-D15 + Contact Frame + Kryosheet, Thermal Throttling in R23 Multi-Core @ stock

    Didn't realise HWinfo showed such info, but after resetting and doing more tests just now, it's saying "thermal" and "max turbo" for IA PerfCap, and "thermal" and "voltage" for Ring PerfCap. I did a fresh run with a -0.05v adaptive offset too which at least cleared "thermal" from Ring, so that's...

    Advice Request: 14700k + NH-D15 + Contact Frame + Kryosheet, Thermal Throttling in R23 Multi-Core @ stock

    Jesus :/ I'm trying all-core OC of 5.5 and even with 1.38v it's still crashing a few seconds into an R23 run, with power limit set to "off". And it's crashing before it thermal caps?! Kinda frustrating and I'm not sure what's going wrong at this point. HWinfo doesn't show any WHEA errors.

    Advice Request: 14700k + NH-D15 + Contact Frame + Kryosheet, Thermal Throttling in R23 Multi-Core @ stock

    :D Yeah I found a mix of "don't even bother" and "it'll be fine with a contact frame and NH-D15" when doing my research, so I guess the latter batch had got my expectations a little out of alignment.

    Advice Request: 14700k + NH-D15 + Contact Frame + Kryosheet, Thermal Throttling in R23 Multi-Core @ stock

    Thanks for the link! Did read many reviews in the lead up to buying all this, but I guess I happened across more lucky/optimistic ones. I've just now rebooted after dropping both power limits to 253 instead of 288 and, while R23 is still running, provisionally the bar is a few pixels longer...

    Sorry yes, Multi-threaded! Initial un-tinkered-with score was 35,839. Since adding 288w power limits, down to 34,213, but still throttling.

    I haven't checked RPMs but the fans do spin up to real "whooshing" levels during R23. I'll check to make sure they're maxed. Right now it's still just on the floor on top of the motherboard box, but eventually will be in a Be Quiet Dark Base 900.

    All running on an MSI Z790 Carbon (original, not the new MAX), with 64GB G.skill 6400 @ XMP, Windows 11; I'm throttling in multi-thread R23 and only averaging 5.3-5.4GHz with both BIOS left at stock (i.e. no effective power limit) and after setting a 288w power limit (for both 1 and 2). It's...

    New Build Time - Its been 10 years!

    Probably! To further help determine if so, this is the GamersNexus video I was referencing; productivity bits starts around 2/3 in, but probably most of it is worth paying attention to.

    New Build Time - Its been 10 years!

    Been planning a 13600k/13700k build myself lately, so can chime in with this info: when paired with a 3090 Ti (these are pre-40xx series numbers, from GN), the uplift from 13600k to 13700k only gets you a ~7%(+/-2) fps bump. Not much for your £100, 33% extra cost! The uplift in productivity type...

    Monitor Mount Arm Things - Anyone Have Any Experience With Kolink M32G9SS-1?

    OcUK sell this contraption but there's no shop-side reviews for it unfortunately. Have also done some searching, but no other places that sell it have any reviews either. Anyone here have one/more of these, and have any views on them, by any chance, please? I'm going from two -> three monitors...

    Managing EDID on 1070?

    Going to re-bump this as I'm investigating this too. Edit: Seems this option is only available on ****** Quadros :/ Edit #2: Got a potential solution under test. Will take a few mins to test as want the monitors to power down naturally to keep it a real world test. Edit #3: Potential solution...

    Asus X99-A Suddenly Won't POST, Q-Code Blank

    Sadly it was mildly cheaper at a competitor, who the cryptic clue for is that their name might be involved in the consumption of barcodes, so here's hoping their support's decent. It's 24 hours since I contacted them about it and no response yet though so... mehh

    Asus X99-A Suddenly Won't POST, Q-Code Blank

    Well waddyaknow - turns out my PSU did fit with my 10 year old rig, exact same power specs from the mobo manuals. And, it did the same thing, sat there with juice to mobo power leds but wouldn't actually boot. Slapped the original PSU back in the old rig again, and it fired up good as ever...

    Asus X99-A Suddenly Won't POST, Q-Code Blank

    Also noticed that the PSU's "overclocking key" light doesn't come on whether it's turned on or off. This is some thing which switches the PSU from single- to multi-rail mode, I believe. So if its own indicator light isn't firing up, I guess that indicates a fault there? I've also seen the...

    Asus X99-A Suddenly Won't POST, Q-Code Blank

    Only other PSU I have is in my old P5b Deluxe/Core 2 Duo system from about ten years ago, don't think it'll even have the right power connectors for a modern mobo. Are there any devices I could get, from somewhere like say Maplin, for testing PSUs in any way?

    Asus X99-A Suddenly Won't POST, Q-Code Blank

    Have used battery removal method for CMOS clearing, still no change. Noticed also that the occasional flash of the Q-LED I mentioned seems to happen when powering off the PSU if it's been sat there on for a while. Some of the system fans also start to slightly rotate in the same instant as the...

    Asus X99-A Suddenly Won't POST, Q-Code Blank

    Thanks - just tried this, which also entailed taking the second 970 out to get to the jumper; still no joy, same result. Going to try removing the CMOS battery method next too, though. Have also noticed that the PSU fan isn't actually spinning. There's coil whine from it, but the fan stays off...

    Asus X99-A Suddenly Won't POST, Q-Code Blank

    Hello! I built a new system last May (Asus X99-A mobo, i7 5820K cpu, Be Quiet DPP P10 850W psu, 2x MSI 970 gpu in SLI, 32GB Corsair 2400 ra, Samsung 850 Pro ssd) and it's been working perfectly fine since then, until last night. I rebooted it at 2am, and after power-down it didn't come back up...
