Never use a wearable like a smartwatch for actually health monitoring unless you use one that is clinically validated for your specific needs; and basically all mass market smartwatches aren't that because validation for actual health uses is expensive and fairly high risk since you'll be in hot water if it stops working properly once and the user dies or almost dies

One of the more well-known mini-PC brands
lowkey might get that for a server after a couple paychecks

Dell optiplexes are pretty popular in office scene as well since they offer business support
very interesting little box though, its 370usd with 5700u?
craggy shoal
ye
I was going to suggest a Dell Optiplex micro but I remembered those are like $800 on a good day
There's also Minisforum, but I heard a couple years ago that they have overheating issues. I've heard a lot of good things about Beelink though
pliant berry
sometimes I forget how much optiplex costs

Are you guys familiar with laptops ? I returned my legion 5 slim to Best Buy yesterday for $1500 lol

craggy shoal

Bruh I'm saying. I'm still friends with my former boss, who's now the IT director where I used to work. I'm thinking about mentioning Beelink just so they can save some money
He works at a school that gives their own IT department a strict budget. We still worked around that budget flexibly too. It's not like we were holding up the school or anything 💀
pliant berry
I do know a lot of business stay with the high prices because of customer support and I think a lot of them support vpro which is nice for it
craggy shoal
Own a university
Double the admissions compared to last year's
Twice the income because twice the admissions
Not enough parking
Not enough dorms
Limit the budget of every department
Pay every student minimum wage, even the IT student workers
The school I graduated from in a nutshell
craggy shoal
imagine
craggy shoal
I mean yeah
But there's more value in going with the Beelink
Plus it wouldn't be used, so no possibility of a locked BIOS or having to reinstall Windows
pliant berry
It will do office work

it's a lightweight version of k8s. possible to make a cluster on rasp pis with it
craggy shoal
Oh gotcha

pliant berry
yeah stock k8s can be pretty heavy for normal systems
craggy shoal
Wait so you can use Kubernetes for redundancy?
That would be great for my Nextcloud server
pliant berry
yeah that's one of the main reasons they use it in datacenter. redundent nodes, loadbalancers, etc. in ideal conditions you have multiple master nodes in case one goes down

usually small installations require 3 nodes minimum xD

But people definetely buy them like I know someone who bought a 350 dollar z390 a couple weeks ago

They made a shorter one and a taller one. You got the shorter one with the smaller heat sink. That's probably been the issue this whole time. Your seller cheapened out and gave you the wrong cooler for your 5600
I think the 5600 comes with the taller cooler (I know my 5600G came with the taller Stealth)
My bad, the taller one is the Wraith Spire. The shorter one is the Wraith Stealth
Same cooler other than the Spire has the bigger heat sink
You should've gotten the one on the right (ignore the arrow). But your seller gave you the one on the left (doesn't cool as good)
mortal grail
I'll cool you better in a minute

Who ever told me to put in cat6 in my house instead of cat5 or cat5e is crazy. They said it would not cost to much more, well news flash for them it's 100 dollar more for a spool of cat6 vs cat5e
craggy shoal
lol
storm narwhal
Cat5e would suffice tbh
craggy shoal
You should put Cat9 in your house

I mean the cpu was unopened
craggy shoal
Oh that's interesting
gleaming sedge
Yeah not when the benefit isn't really evident for you
Yea, now I just need to see if I can find a place selling cat5 or cat5e cable for fairly cheap
Marketplace time
craggy shoal
Ohhh my bad it does come with a Stealth and not a Spire
Just keep tightening those two screws. They'll get tight. Don't worry about the weird noise

I'm afraid off
putting too much pressure
I'm hitting like 75 c while playing fortnite
craggy shoal
There's supposed to be pressure. That's why there's springs on each screw
surreal kernel

Hmm maybe I'll get it off Amazon https://a.co/d/cjxnIwW
surreal kernel

they won't move bro 😭😭😭
I mean they move but they won't screw in
ok one more try
after this I'm done
craggy shoal
I mean they move but they won't screw in
The one with springy sounds is going in. You're just too scared to screw it in any more. The one that's not screwing in is probably not even in the hole at all
To fix the one that's not screwing in, loosen the opposite corner and tighten the one that won't tighten (press it down and tighten it if you have to)

they are opposites

the ones that screw in are opposites too
as in like

they are in

still stressing over your cooler mount?
elfin mural
you should stop worrying lol

I'd the clicking noise
jsur the screws
telling me it's in
Wia
THE NOISE IS GONE
on one side
it's in
THEY ARE IN

92c is on the edge *but* this cpu takes 95c

I tightened them
idk how or why
I guess I had to apply pressure on the screw drive more too
instead on the actual coolers side
velvet summit
Well, yeah lol
The springs are pushing against the cooler, not the board
The springs are there so that you can screw the cooler all the way in without damaging the board
Because most people don't have a torque screwdriver
mortal grail
Did you screw the cooler in slowly and evenly
Cross pattern screwing is recommended
surreal kernel
I don't even remember no more
surreal kernel
what's pbo
mortal grail
Set a proper fan curve
surreal kernel
😭
mortal grail
And you set it up how you want it
surreal kernel
it's sitting at 83c rn
mortal grail
83C doing what
mortal grail
Seems kind of normal if the fan isn't working that hard
mortal grail
It's what 2600 rn???
mortal grail
Rpm
mortal grail
2600 rpm 58 in bios
mortal grail
That, sounds like it's probably not mounted properly
mortal grail
No you know what I'm dumb
It's mounted properly
It's just that really tiny box cooler
The reallllyyyy tiny one
surreal kernel
yeah
mortal grail
what should I do
Start making a fan curve
surreal kernel
raise the dots?
mortal grail
Sure
surreal kernel
cant
mortal grail
If you're comfortable with that go for it
mortal grail
To make it better not really
surreal kernel
cpu fan speed control
mortal grail
Top right you can choose profiles
surreal kernel
it's at normal
mortal grail
But they aren't great
surreal kernel
silent manual full speed
tranquil pebble
surreal kernel
what's ez tuning
mortal grail
Idk
mortal grail
Time to do some homework
Fan curves takes like 10 minutes to learn
Go watch some videos lol
tranquil pebble
I really need to finish Persona 3 Reload before I accidentally run into spoilers
surreal kernel
Aggressive, but this works
I clicked the ez tuning thing
should I lower the values down a bit
or
storm narwhal
I mean it works but it'll just be loud more often cause it's spinning up more
surreal kernel
I mean it works but it'll just be loud more often cause it's spinning up more
should I play around with the 2
fans of my case
too
sys fan 1 and 2
storm narwhal
If you want to yeah
surreal kernel
storm narwhal
Just determines how much air is entering and exiting your case
surreal kernel
Just determines how much air is entering and exiting your case
idk where to put them at
storm narwhal
Mm
Personally I'd put like, 100% fan speed at 80 degrees
Maybe 85
And make a more gradual curve from there
mortal grail
Keep saying this is the part where you learn what to put them at for your own preference
storm narwhal
Also, that haha

I'm afraid I'll break something
storm narwhal
It took me a bit of time to learn the curve and sound profile i like
Also yes you can't break fans this way
mortal grail
It's made entirely not to break lmao
storm narwhal
Unless you purposefully install something that somehow can overclock a fan
mortal grail
There's only one thing to remember, 95C is your maximum
storm narwhal
Then you can break fans
mortal grail
There's only one thing to remember, 95C is your maximum
You hit that, nothing breaks
CPU only slows down
storm narwhal
Just everything go slow
rough zinc
There's only one thing to remember, 95C is your maximum
Im going to 95C your maximum
mortal grail
Im going to 95C your maximum
I prefer my coffee at 85C thx
mortal grail
Or whats the thermal limit now
95 for 5600, 110 for shutdown iirc
mortal grail
I'm quakin
storm narwhal
110 yes
surreal kernel
save profile
?
tranquil pebble
100C+ coffee steam
surreal kernel
or does it save on its own
mortal grail
save profile
Sure
rough zinc
Yeah save profile
surreal kernel
and this is if you want to switch
storm narwhal
Save if you wanna keep
surreal kernel
oh it says hdd or local motherboard bios
mortal grail
Either or
tranquil pebble
95 for 5600, 110 for shutdown iirc
110 assuming it doesnt BSoD before it hits that high lol
mortal grail
Whatever you're comfortable with
storm narwhal
No real difference
rough zinc
Go back and adjust
surreal kernel
idle tends worst
temps
hm
at 60 c that it is rn
it should b running at 91 percent right
this is not 91 percent
😭
i can't even hear it
mortal grail
Lol
rough zinc
lol
mortal grail
Today we teached the throes of learning how to fan tune
rough zinc
Did you select cpu fan?
surreal kernel
yes
rough zinc
Or whatever heading the cpu cooler is plugged into
storm narwhal
Rip
rough zinc
Also you need to change from fan speed control normal to manual
And change fan control use temperature input from system 1 to CPU
surreal kernel
rough zinc
Looks good if that’s what you want for a curve
surreal kernel
this is cpu
rough zinc
What cooler is it?
mortal grail
Wraith stealth
surreal kernel
stock ones
storm narwhal
Wraith stealth
mortal grail
The tiny one
storm narwhal
Smol
rough zinc
What cpu?
mortal grail
5600
surreal kernel
And change fan control use temperature input from system 1 to CPU
in the sys fans
rough zinc
Okay yeah that’ll run hot as balls
storm narwhal
in the sys fans
I do this
surreal kernel
mortal grail
Yep but this will make it a little better
rough zinc
Change that to CPU
surreal kernel
on both of them right
rough zinc
Yeah
storm narwhal
Both yeah
surreal kernel
should I click on
save fan profile
or when I exit it automatically saves
idk how it works
like do I need to click save on both of the fans or
storm narwhal
Save on both
storm narwhal
Just hit save for each fan
surreal kernel
the graph on sys fan 1 and 2 is different
storm narwhal
They're two different fans
mortal grail
Man's treading through this like he'll be shot at the next corner 💀

surreal kernel
Man's treading through this like he'll be shot at the next corner 💀
LMAO

He's gonna fall through the ice at any moment

Real
storm narwhal
Plunge into frigid depths
mortal grail
That fan about to spin up to 10000rpm and chop off his hairline
surreal kernel
alr I saved them
storm narwhal
Perish in the lake
surreal kernel
I'm being serious is this alright 😭😭😭
storm narwhal
Yeah no it's fine
mortal grail
If you're happy with the end result then yes
That's the thing
It's your preference
storm narwhal
Exactly
mortal grail
We can't teach you what you feel is "good" for the fan here
It's all "good"
But your "good" is different to everyone else
storm narwhal
I could set my fans to run at 100% all of the time
surreal kernel
if I don't like this ima switch to neutral and not touch my pc ever again
rough zinc
I could set my fans to run at 100% all of the time
I used to do that lol
storm narwhal
See
mortal grail
This is where you should experiment a little with the fans until you get something you like
rough zinc
iPPCs can’t run at 100% for living in a dorm
mortal grail
if I don't like this ima switch to neutral and not touch my pc ever again
It's made for this stuff
storm narwhal
It took me a few times on and off to get a curve I liked
mortal grail
there isn't a single day that I don't have tech issues
Not really an issue but anyway
💀
storm narwhal
Over the course of a month or two when my interest was piqued
surreal kernel
I do not notice any differences in sound
