  1. There is a reason why i need a tanker full of Thermal paste, for this very thing. Its what i do all the time no matter which method i use the first paste job is a test application the second one is the real deal. But totally agree with you on this one.
  2. Mainboards should work as long as its an MSI and the Codec Id's are in the .inf files which they should be as Realtek UAD drivers normally have most Codec ID's in them. The only issue might be the Nahimic 3 side of things as i am no sure if the Mainboards from MSI have Nahimic on them.
  3. More chance of it being 0.5mm to 2.0mm and in between. Just get a few of them then do the testing. Once you have done that let me know as the pads you linked is the pads i am going to be using myself, Unless the Minus Plus Extreme is buyable although i would then buy both to do a comparasion.
  4. For now yes Currently using 1mm and 1.5mm right now but not 100% sure if thats the right sizes myself its best to do what meaker told me which is to get a mix of them so 0.5mm 1mm 1.5mm and 2mm and then just test fit the whole lot and look for compression and markings on the pads.
  5. I'll be moving to PfSense once i have my x86 system for routing, i do infact have the x86 system already however its my VM server right now till i can get something more upgradable then its ready to be swapped over after getting some Wireless AP's. So PfSense is on my list i have worked with it before its not that bad and its been improved since then so can't wait to get back into it again.
  6. I won't let them get under my skin, its a simply fix if people don't like it and think its sus do the work themselves. But yeah going to keep the drivers to one site for now else its going to make things stupid trying to keep both updated.
  7. If anyone spots new drivers let me know. If its a big step up then i will make a new pack, whats a shame is i am going to make the mod pack exclusive to this site as the other site people are complaining about my installer being shady.
  8. BGA'ing anything to a motherboard is just planned obsolescence in an attempt to continue the trade of people purchasing a new system, thus making more e-waste. Although more expensive having socketed CPU's , MXM, SO-DIMM, Wifi, Storage is the ideal way. It although doesn't seem it would mean less e-waste then having everything on the mainboard. If a CPU dies you simply replace the CPU, if GPU dies you replace the GPU etc your not throwing a complete system just to replace 1 faulty part. This is on advantage that Framework has if one part is faults its just a module change not the whole system, so i don't mind frameworks BGA solution however most OEM's are spending too much time focusing on how many times they can milk it rather then Quailty of their solutions. If apple and co have thier way you'd be buying a new laptop when a cap goes poop. So i will be sticking with any DTR that offers socketed items only. Although the big corps are going to kill it off soon enough i am sticking to my guns. If you make a socketed system with off shelve replacables you have my custom. If you don't your don't have my custom.
  9. Any Debian or centos/fedora is as they have files already for virtual machine guests.
  10. @Mr. Fox is going to be proud of me for saying this. A laptop trend that shouldn't of made it mainstream was BGA, anything soldered be it CPU/GPU/RAM/WiFi they shouldn't exsist as they are the hands of obsolescence and obsolescence is the hand of the devil. Be gone BGA begone.
  11. Sent you a DM bud. Hopefully that info might be of some use.
  12. Welcome back to made house! @asm1 can you please update the OP! thank you.
  13. No need to feel like an idiot, it can happen to anyone. Now if its the CPU socket pins you can gentally bend them back into place so long as you haven't broken the pin. Heck you don't really need to replace the mainboard you can get someone to desolder the old socket and replace it with a new one. I take it you dropped the CPU into the socket a bit too hard. Your best bet is to take a photo of the issue for us nerds to look at for you.
  14. @Jaggy84 It just means it says in PL2 longer @Sydneyblue The gain is a 100+ points in CineBench but its an increase and it needs fine tuning too. As for temps can't really know as the last run jaggy did was in Entertainment mode.
  15. @Jaggy84 I would drop the PL2 to 220w mate personally, also what have you set the TAU at as thats normally a 56 second window and i would up that to 128 seconds or higher.
  16. @Sydneyblue Are we talking about the Limit reason of Voltage, if that is the cause its because you have hit the limit set by nvidia in the vbios and thats totally normal. The fact that your GPU usage is in the 90's is good. If its frame pacing issues thats down to nvidia drivers bud. @Jaggy84 Nice one mate and some nice temps too!
  17. Copper IHS is more likely Copper IHS Kit - Intel 10th Gen – RockItCool , LM should be fine just got the semi-conductors with something like Thermal Grizzly High Performance Cooling Solutions - TG Shield (thermal-grizzly.com) then reseal the IHS with silicon.
  18. Did they say what the shore hardness was as I used them sizes last time using gelids and got no contact with the dies.
  19. That's not good, might be worth while asking HID for some pads, could you also measure them before installing as I don't even know the sizes for the CPU or GPU thermal pads. Still waiting on PCS to get back to me on it so I can get some proper pads when I upgrade CPU.
  20. I got that one for christmas lol however with the X170KM i can't use the mobile holder lol. Only using it for benchmarking right now though so its back in box, still waiting on my new metal Laptop cooler but my friend is busy right now so not bothering him.
  21. Going to be away for a day or two. I have to solve an Microsoft Windows issue again, Going to start sending Microsoft a bill for the SSD wear as its another back up and format.

    Why oh Why can't they test updates before releasing them as this Patch Tuesday has brought me a borked system again.

    At this rate, i am moving ship to Linux big time getting fed up with doing reinstalls all the time.

    Thankfully its all scripted so i won't loose tooooooooo much sleep, also User Profile and main data is not on the same OS drive so i can nuke with ease without data loss worry unless i use diskpart and select the wrong disk before issuing the clean command oops!

  22. Going off in what term is it showing yellow or red? or is it audible alarm? I have a server thats NVME based currently being hammered for the past 12 hours with no heatsink on. nvme-pci-0100 Adapter: PCI adapter Composite: +66.8°C (low = -20.1°C, high = +84.8°C) (crit = +81.8°C) Sensor 1: +66.8°C (low = -20.1°C, high = +84.8°C) Is it causing your system to shutdown whilst its at 60+c?? if not your fine.
