I'll take both the R710 and the MD1000 off your hands but I can't make the trip up there until next weekend if that is cool with you. This will go towards the church project you may have seen me posting about here lately :).

Question: Do you also have the rails for the units?
Hi Henry,

Ultra 5.1 repair customer from Oct 2010. I have a hum that gets louder when increasing volume. I want to use the Ultra with an Onkyo receiver as a home theater. I bought 100uf / 105 deg C caps, but you repaired this system in 2010, so not sure if they're bad. It was unused for 10 years. Here are photos of the AC/DC power board. Not sure if any of these caps are bad? What direction should I go?

Hi, I apologize that I did not see your message until now. The capacitors you want to replace are not in those photos. Here's a photo of the four to check. Hopefully I replaced all four. If I only replaced two, then I would suggest you replace the other two originals.

Lots of good work, stpeteshepherd. Thanks. I have a Klipsch ProMedia GMX Dß5.1 which has finally gone to having an annoying hum full time. So I was wondering if you a) have any repaired subwoofer/amp units for sale, or b) have a send-in repair service or c) have a repair kit for the unit. Right now the only issue I have is the hum. Thank you.

Hi,
I apologize. I see that I did not seem to be getting notice, or seeing notice of some messages here. I do not have GMX subs. I have not worked on them, but may be able to help. Do you think you could remove the amplifier panel from the sub? I would likely need to borrow a control pod to test the sub after doing work.
do you still have the XC3 hybrid kit for sale?

Hi,
I can help you with your ProMedia 5.1. I just have a busy day ahead, and may not be able to give any detailed answers until later in the weekend.

Hello,
No rush. Finally got it setup this weekend. Also upgraded to a more worthy sound card. Sounds good, though it plays a tiny amusing sound when I turn it off... I'll take measures to avoid excess wear. I'd consider either ordering a reworked one then sending mine in for a core refund, or send and wait for my core. I'm capable of some repair & soldering, but think it's best I leave such work to a pro.
Hey mate, ill take the Intel i5 13600T. According to your profile, if you're still in Dallas, I live in the area as well.
Do you still have the 3090 XC3 hybrid kit? I accidentally got a used FTW3 hybrid kit for my 3090 XC3 ultra and would be up for swapping

My son inquired and said someone else is interested. I can't post so I don't know. He is going to buy it for me.
Hi. This is just a shot in the dark. I was a member here a long time ago and my account got locked when it was inactive. I have lurked since 2001 but posted rarely. Old username was roadtonowhere08. I saw you have a Thinkpad P53 for sale. I would love to take it off your hands if it is still available. I am not sure if you can PM me, but if you can, we can talk about it. Have a good one.
Looking for the following parts at a reasonable price for a broke college student.
- GPU (preferably something like 2070 to 2090 or 3060 to 3090 but am willing to look into other offers.)
- M.2 with at least half a terabyte or 1 terabyte of storage OR a Solid State Drive with a terabyte of storage.
- A decent power supply
- two 16 GB Ram sticks
hi, I'm looking for some old DDR3 for a school project and wonder if your 4GB sticks are still available. Could you pls DM me? thx a lot

Hi, have you had a chance to check on the DDR3 sticks? thx again for your help!
Hi,
This is Henry, stpeteshepherd on ebay. You may reach me at [email protected]. I have an older email address cited a couple of places on this forum, and I did not want to post my new gmail address in the chat, to confuse people who still reach me via juno.
Hey!

Quick one as you seem to know winDas pretty well.
My fw900 geometry is a little weird in that the top right and left corners droop a little and the bottom right and left raise a little. I attached an illustration greatly exaggerating the issue.
Do you know if winDas has a setting to adjust for this sort of thing?
Thanks !

Hey 3dfan, as my name suggest I own a scratched FW900. I wanted to ask for some of your direct thoughts on the car tint and how its been in the long term.
Namely curious about the films glare reduction, how good is it? Glare isn't a big concern for me as there is controlled lighting in my set up. That's just my one main question really, but I'd love to hear any thoughts you have like how tolerable the bubbles are etc

happy with car polarizer, still good condition, small bubbles easy ignorable, mainly installed it to preserve blacks. for glare i havent payed attention and dont remember about glare when the original AG coating was on it, its image quality overall is very good, brightfull enough, can perseive blacks much better than withuout any film on it screen, which was too grayish blacks were only persiebale in dark room

Hey I'm interested in you gigabyte aorus master 6800 xt, but can't PM. Can you email me at regular40us (at) gmail (dot) com? Thanks!
Hello! Was wondering if you still have the Aperture Science PC, and if you are interested in selling it?
I was wondering if you could help with a Klipsch Promedia 5.1 Ultra. It works for a few hours, then audio drops out and a high pitched noise comes from the speakers. If I unplug it for a while it goes back to normal. I've read overheating is common, so I'd like to buy one of your cooling kits. If this sounds familiar and you can give me insight on other parts that may be bad, any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Hey, I see you undervolting expert :) I have Ryzen 5900X on MSI motherboard. I want undervolt my CPU for better temps, but don't lose any performance. Can you help me? :)

You need to touch Curve Optimizer, as that is what actually "under-volts" your CPU. The PPT, TDC & EDC are power settings outside of voltage control.

Hello. i have updated my cooling with Corsair h100i elite lcd 240mm (2 fans). I set curve optimiser -25 all cores, PPT 120, TDC 80, EDC 120. Cinebench R23 multicore 20489 (stock settings with PBO off 20759), temp 65, single core 1625 (stock settings with PBO off 1614) temp 65. I think it's good for lower power settings and i get like stock cinebench values. What du you think?

If you're going for lower power, not bad. If you want a little better scores, EDC of 140A would be fine. I believe you also want TDC above EDC or you're really thermal limiting the chip needlessly. A better way to do it would be set the max temp in the bios from 90C to say 85C or 80C. That way you still get good boosting when needed.
Hello ThreeDee! Hope youve been well. I came across your post around using the H80 cooler for AM4 then signed up with the forum. I dug into my old boxes and found the two piece square bracket that only had two exterior screw mounts. Is that what you used? Did it fit with no other modifications? I believe you just had to install the two plastic brackets that comes with AM4 motherboards? Thanks for your time!
ThreeDee
ThreeDee
yes, the AM4 brackets that should have come with your cooler .. and they just screw into the back plate that came with your motherboard ... I think. It's been awhile since I've ran that AIO. Running a Noctua NH-D15 now with 2 x 140mm fans
