Other Geeky Stuff / Re: Why does my GPU constantly spool up and spin down?

It is like I'm constantly listening to waves crashing on a beach, or wind blowing through branches, but no, it is just my 2070 Super consistently spinning up the fan and immediately winding it down. Over and over, all day long.

Frankly it is kinda maddening, and I tried adjusting the fan settings to be smoother, but nothing seems to work. The only time the fan spins at a consistent rate is when I'm actually playing games. Then it spools up and stays there. But when I'm working, on the internet, watching a movie, all I hear is the fan making washing machine noises.

Why?  :confused:

Yeah, that’s pretty common. The card keeps hitting the temp limit where fans turn on, then cools just enough to shut them off again, so it repeats. A simple fan curve that keeps a low steady speed usually fixes it.

Hey all,

If you're into Hall Effect switches or keyboards, then there's absolutely no doubt you've heard and/or seen about these flying saucer shaped switches by this point in time. But as for the rest of us, this is absolutely not a deep dive you want to miss - a full length tear down of the new Gravastar UFO Purple switches and their out of this world design!

Can I join Cipulot pcb gb without buying the RF-8X?
Hey, that should be fine but you may need to double confirm with your local vendor for this. Also do take note that the PCB will be shipped together to our vendors during the fulfilment period.

Keyboards / Re: Diatec, known for FILCO keyboards has ceased operations

Oh no, that's sad news about Diatec Co. closing. It makes me think about how important good visuals are for businesses, especially when things change. For quick image touch-ups, I've found <a href="https://photoeditai.net">photoeditai</a> really helpful.

Off Topic / Re: We's prolly spad00dled..
« Last post by tp4tissue on Sat, 06 June 2026, 14:12:24 »
ur000p in another Xpurt stupid move decided it wants to host as many 'murikant  nv( lr misiiil as possible.


This is what we have now in the leadership, morons.  Let's say, Latvia gets them. Rvss will be FORCED to atak. Rvss can end Latvia with Conventional weapons overnight.

Now, does Latvia use those nvks or not?  Lets say they use them.  Their country ends anyway,  Rvss can eat 100s of Nvks, and IT BY ITSELF can initiate Nvklar winter, which means no one from the outside will come to the "rescue".

Nvks are not a deterrant relative to the "Living Mass SIZE" that is Latvia.  There is Neither 1st strike, NOR 2nd strike potential.  They merely cease to be.


So, ultimately, relative to Latvia, Nvks only function as a political KICK ME sign because NO ONE would truly BACK Latvia against Rvss if it came to actually-Large-engagements.

They're just going to get themselves Vkrained.


Latvia simply doesn't understand how nv(lr weapons work..

Their politicians don't understand Sphere of influence, and they don't understand that for Inconsequential small countries with no-OIL , Modern Attrition, on the Battlefield is not how you expand that sphere, it's how you commit suicide.

Group Buys and Preorders / Re: Beam Spring 104+SSK+122+62 Reproduction Project! now shipping
« Last post by Ellipse on Sat, 06 June 2026, 13:13:41 »
Thanks, as I mentioned over PM, we will be chatting over email to continue the discussion.  There might be some benefit to adjusting the firmware offsets and calibration bins to provide more leeway for the keys to work despite debris in the keyboards.

Sharing with permission some more feedback (and a photo) on the new B104:

"Shipping to [Europe] went perfectly fine, only one module was broken and one more needed reseating on arrival. MT3 keycaps fit the stems without an issue (see attached photo), software-wise the setup was a breeze. Hardware-wise, well, could definitely have been easier but I succeeded despite having hardly any prior experience assembling keyboards, so I guess it could have been significantly worse as well.  The keyboard feels and sounds glorious, as expected, thank you once again."

I'm not trying to argue with you or anything, but I don't believe it's from installing keycaps. Even fully compressed there is a sizable gap between the part I highlighted and the beam flipper, see the attached photo. The legs on barrel part B prevent such an impact, so unless I press hard enough to shatter the legs those two contact points should never meet. Additionally, each part that had a weakened or broken off "cap" was exclusively where the metal part bends, if somehow the two parts were contacting and causing damage from impact I would have observed more diverse break patterns, however, every break was identical in it's pattern. I would provide pictures of the modules so you could see this uniform break pattern yourself but I only photographed a single module before putting the rest back into the case.

The keys I had to pull to apply my "fix" were Up-Arrow, Left-Arrow, Page Down, 2, 4, 9, C, V, J, K, T, and the "/?" key.

Thank you for the replacement offer, I will gladly take you up on that!

Alas, no 40s kitting? What I like about MW sets is how often there is a good 40s child kit. For folks like me, the Neo base plus 40s kit with small bars would have been perfect.
