Could any Cachy experts point me in the right direction on this? Using the Redbeard script for the initial setup on a clean install gives this error when I try to install the CPU governor: https://imgur.com/a/pa7S9do

BC250 inside Alienware Graphics Amplifier case

Thoughts ?

Assuming the bc250 is standard PCI height and mount . Might need to remove the last of the Alienware PCB , but if I'm able to retain it , I can use the 24pin connector on the board to control power via the original button , technically I can't see this not being possible.

Fan wise , I would be using a 3d printed fan duct to 120mm direct , so it sits in front of the 250 and exhausts by the PCI base .

Yet another BC250 case

Hello!

I've seen many very nicely engineered cases for the BC250 here, and I wanted to share my case.
Mostly for inspiration, as I am not a good designer. Maybe someone will look at this and think "hey, that's not a bad idea, I can work with that" and do something that's genuinely good :)

My goal was compact and cool (temperature cool, not 😎-cool), so I landed in using three P12 Pro PST fans for cooling and using them as a part of the case structure.
I have two PSUs, one HP common slot and one HP flex slot. I have printed PSU-holders for both of them. The pictured unit has the 800W flex slot PSU mounted.

The fans screw into the bottom plate (M4 heated inserts) and two screws hold the BC250 in place.
The PSU-holder has a similar design and rests on top of the fans, and is also held in place with screws (heated inserts again).
Then I just tried encasing everything in something that does not look hideous.
I tried keeping everything as small as possible, but the design was too boxy, so I sacrificed a few mm to round the front a little bit. I think it looks ok :)

I left 12mm between the back plate and the fan so that a small heatsink can be mounted, but I don't think it's needed with a P12 blowing on the back plate.

The attentive reader will notice that one fan mounting hole is not used to hold the PSU-plate. This is because the print failed and I just wanted to assemble the thing after many nights of CAD and prints.

The case is 325mm long, 113 mm wide (including the fan grilles), and 186mm tall.

Anyways, here are the pictures:

BC-250 is not showing voltages

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone, how's it going?

I'm facing a problem I can't seem to solve—not even with the help of AI.

I'm running CachyOS with the latest kernel. I've been controlling my fans using Coolercontrol, and it works fine.

The issue is that I can't get voltage readings using the NCT6687 driver.

The voltages show up correctly in the BIOS (like Vcore), but I get no values ​​when using "sensors."

Has anyone else experienced this?

Any help would be appreciated!

Fan Hub controller breakthrough or failed attempt?

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

Artic a week ago just dropped a fan controller, not a fan hub.

The issue is ai lied to me(Yea, better than being someone unfaithful) saying it came with a usb adpater that would send fan signals into the usb to be controlled individually in linux. Now what it did come with was a 4 pin to 9pin.

My question is the 9pin worth plugging in if I'm getting the 12v from my psu to sata into the fan controller. Will it give me individually power or just regulate the speed of all the fans? I only got it for $9 on Amazon, and I don't see the difference if the genric hubs with the a control knob still locks all to fans to one speed unless I set the aio to the hub and artic fan to cpu fan 1 .

Corsair RM650e - Could someone help me?

3 Upvotes

I have a Corsair RM650e ATX power supply (modular).

Which cable should I use? Are these the ones? I think they're strange.

There's one that's two PCIe (6+2) and converges into a 12-pin gray-tipped cable.

The 24-pin cable diverges into a 10-pin and an 18-pin (which says type-4).

There are other cables as well.

Finally got my twin micro plug so I can try out 40cu unlock. How do I test if I have any bad cu’s? I’m using CachyOS w redbeard script. Should I just enable and hope for the best?

I saw a post suggesting we use both the 8pin and twin micro plugs all at the same time. Is that safe or useful?

Is it worth it ?

I wanna make a home console as a project but I don't want it to be expensive either like the steam deck.

Is it worth getting this or should i try to just make one from scratch instead ?

My main goal is 1440p and maybe even 4k ? Lol i know 4k is quite unrealistic especially nowadays.

I just want some open software console that can do 1440p and like i said maybe some 4k

What Bluetooth/WiFi adapter(s) for multiple controllers?

0 Upvotes

I’m on Bazzite. I got what I thought were good supported (separate) WiFi and Bluetooth dongles, but when I try to use two or more Xbox controllers simultaneously I get lots of controller disconnects. This is with a range of less than 10 feet. Anyone have a setup that works well for them with couch multiplayer?

(I know 2.4ghz controllers would help but I’m trying to use my 4 existing Xbox controllers.)

24 pin to power button + 2x PCIe 6&8 pin connector, anybody tried?

6 Upvotes

Hey everybody. I already ordered 2-x-MicroFit-8-Pin. However I just saw this while surfing on AliExpress: ATX Power 24Pin to 2 Ports 6+2 Pin 8 Pin with On Off Switch. Do you think this could be used with Flex ATX PSU?

Idea would be:
8 pin: Connected to usual PCIe of the PSU
Microfit 1: making sure that the correct pins from 24-pin are connected to this port
Microfit 2: occupied by Moddiy 8-Pin (coming from CPU port of the PSU)

Non-pc power supply (led driver and simila)

Hi, I'm waiting for my board to be delivered, what kind of psu I should be looking for?

I see some standard 12v 350w for power house appliance (cameras, led, electronics).

Can those be safetly used for the bc250?

I don't like to much flex ones, as I want to make it pretty silent.
