Just Replaced Bad Fan and New Set Same Fan Spins and Stops

Not sure what to do here, got this gpu off ebay, the bigger fan ended up dying, so I got a brand new set. Replaced them, plugged everything in, spun by hand to make sure it was smooth and behaved like a normal fan, it sure did. Put it back in computer and it does same thing. Starts and stop, over and over. I have fan speed set to 60% and gpu is hitting 70C+

Zotac MI351 - any 32GB DDR5 modules that work on this model?

I have a few of these boxes and I would like to use them to run VMs, maybe even make a VM cluster.

32GB would be optimal amount of ram for that purpose (and 16GB bit too low). However, I have not yet found any that work. And I don't want to keep buying them and hoping that something finally works.

I know Intel spec and computer spec says that max memory amount is 16GB. But I also know many people run N100 boxes with 32GB RAM. Even myself, I have another N100 box running with 32GB just fine.

With this particular model, I can boot with 32GB and it is identified as 32GB but memtest gives errors. 8GB and 16GB sticks work just fine.

I have tried following modules:

Corsair VENGEANCE DDR5 4800MHz 32GB - CMSX32GX5M1A4800C40 - gives memory errors and is not usable

Crucial DDR5 5200MHz 32GB - CT32G52C42S5 - gives memory errors and is not usable

So my question is, has anyone successfully ran these boxes with 32GB RAM? If so, could you please share the specific model number that worked for you?

Or if there is some sort of hardware/bios limit on this particular model that prevents using 32GB, it would be also good to know.

Did I Get Lucky?

Found this on Zotac’s website and copped it immediately. Did I get lucky with this? I see them on eBay where they are trying to sell for $3k USD and higher. And apparently they are finished with production.

Zotac PI430AJ ssd runs hot

Anyone got the airjet mini PC? Is just me or does the mini PC run hot? My ssd is getting cooked. It shutdown few times because the ssd nand went over the 71c temperature limit. The 2x airjet supposed handle 8w of heat @ 85c but 3.5w—4w + load will cause cpu the temperature to over that and slowly cook the ssd. The cpu cools faster than the SSD.

Just bought 3080 Ti from eBay "ZotacUSA" seller. Power Adapter cable not going to come with it?

I just bought this GPU last night:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/386714189017?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&fromMakeTrack=true

It states:

“2 yeas warranty (shipped in generic box with no accessories*)”*

Does this mean the power adapter cable will most likely not come with it? It should arrive on May 10.

I messaged Zotac on eBay... Just want to know so that I can buy the cable and not wait any longer after the GPU card arrives.

Thanks.

LEDs on Zotac RTX 3080 Ti Trinity OC going haywire

Hi, I’ve had this graphics card for about 4 years and it’s working fine, but for some time now the LED strip on the side is acting up. The left side of it just goes party mode when it’s supposed to change colours. I installed firestorm but that didn’t change anything. In the video the LEDs are set to change between yellow and red, as you can see on the right side.

This almost never happens when it shows a single colour, but once it switches colours, the flickering starts and won’t stop until the LEDs are turned off and back on. I’ve now set it to static and it looks fine.

Is this a software issue? Is there any way to fix this? I hope it’s no fatal issue…

Firestorm 4.0 -- cannot resize the window

Anyone else have this problem? Looking for a solution. I do a fresh install of Firestorm but upon opening it, I cannot resize the window and thus cannot access things like Spectra or really anything useful. A restart and/or a reinstall does nothing. Adjusting my desktop resolution with the program open or closed also doesn't solve the issue. It's really doing its best not to allow me to access its menus. I can temporarily view the bottom of the window by dragging it up but it just snaps right back into this awful view as soon as I stop dragging. Super annoying! Any help will be appreciated!

This is the most I can see regardless of the resolution. The window cannot be resized.

4060 Solo - REBAR not working

I was tuning my GPU and noticed that TimeSpy showed Resizable BAR was disabled. I double checked with GPU-Z and it verified that Resizable BAR wasn't enabled.

In GPU-Z it showed:
Above 4G Decode Enabled in BIOS = No
Resizable BAR Enabled in BIOS = No

  • I checked both of these settings in my BIOS (B550I Aorus Pro AX) and they are both enabled.
  • The GPU is running fine otherwise and benchmark scores are within the normal range.
  • Drivers are up to date and I've tried DDU and reinstalling drivers.
  • I am using PCIE 3.0 riser cable but REBAR worked with this same riser on my old GTX 1650 before I upgraded the GPU.
  • Looked for an updated VBIOS. No luck.

Any ideas?

Zotac mini 2060 Super stopped working after 3 years

Hello, my graphics cards stopped working after almost 3 years of casual gaming use. Since its out of warranty and due to the cost of shipping, sending it to the brand for repair its not worth it. In a local pc shop they told me it was a problem with the energy. The card shutted down and locked itself. My psu has 850w and i have never changed the thermal paste of the graphics card. Does anyone know if this is a common problem and specialist can repair it?

Thanks in advance!

Firestorm - Just Why?

So I recently built my first pc; it's been a blast and I've been super happy with it thus far! I have an Asus motherboard so I'm usually stuck with Polychrome or BIOS to get a decent static rgb going; nbd right?

Well, after working through noob stuff to find the rgb software for my graphics card (Zotac 4070ti), I finally got things to a nice purple.

Adjusting things today and noticed Firestorm no longer allows me to change the color of my gpu. Did a clean install and still an issue. Looking into fixes - Zotac suggested resetting everything to default. Now I'm stuck with rainbow puke and no way to change it.

After some research, I learned this is at least a FOUR YEAR OLD problem dating back to 20 series cards. What is going on at Zotac?

How hard could it possibly be to make an rgb software that isn't a complete failure? I've tried Aura, OpenRGB, etc. to no avail because Zotac locks you into using their proprietary Shitstorm to make even the most minor of changes.

Not to mention they still haven't added a fan stop feature. It sucks that my only recourse is to RMA an otherwise perfectly functional gpu.

At this point, I just turned off rgb and said fuck it. Will be going with another company for my next card, though my hopes aren't particularly high.
