I got notified today that the EVGA HYDRO COPPER for the GeForce RTX 3090 K|NGP|N, 400-HC-1999-B1 card was available today so I went ahead and ordered it being it will take months to get the Optimus EVGA Kingpin's Signature GPU Block.

My son in law has the google pixel 6 pro and he said it has a setting to take astrophotography pics
I have an adapter that can put a phone on a scope or a telescope. 
Next time I take it out too his house will see if we can get any pics. Not expecting much though.

It takes time to learn this, at least for me so do give up.
The hard part for me was the Post Processing of the image.
Taking them and Stacking them and all was easy to learn only need to use the right application.
I could not do this with my iPad so I use a Windows 10 Computer to image and to Post Process the images.
 
One of my first images from back in 2003 or 2004.
M43 The Running Man Nebula

 
M57 Ring Nebula (I will image this in late May this year)

Bill,
If I can find your address I will send you a Meade Instruments 645002 Lunar Planetary Imager - Guider - Monochrome. Link
I is mono only but still a good way to learn and it is a good Moon Camera. (Software Link)
And later on if you get into this you can use it as Guide Camera, I can even send you a Guide Scope.

Wow! Running Einstein@Home  Tasks on the KPE running One Tasks shows 655 Watts on my UPS Unit.
No Tasks running my UPS Unit shows 230 Watts so the KPE alone is running 425 Watts.
This is 200-250+ Watts more than any other BOINC GPU Task to include Folding.

I enjoy those astronomy pics. It's amazing what's out there in space.

There was a cricket match where the cameraman focused on Jupiter. Crazy how powerful those professional sports cameras are!

Downloaded Windows 11 today and installed it on my Z390 Dark Motherboard and I did have to enable Trusted Computing (TMP) in the Bios.
I hope all goes wells as I want to test all the BOINC Projects as well as Folding before I update all my hosts.
 
Windows 11 It is like going from Windows 98 to Windows 7.
Menus really SUCK, now instead of 2 Clicks to run normal commands it now take 4 Click.
I cannot see the host on the network not even itself on the host.
 
At least Windows 7 Image Process is still working.
I am NOT going to update my other computer until I am FORCED to.

Only the Best
 
Hello,

The 400-HC-1999-B1 doesn't have any thermal paste on it. It will have thermal putty already applied. It is the same standard putty that we use for anything that needs thermal putty.

Regards,
EVGA

Good news as far as my X299 Dark setup goes.
I have changed my Z390 Dark + RTX 2080 KPE for the Z590 Dark + RTX 3090 KPE
So I got a second EXC-800 Portable 800W Recirculating Liquid Chiller, (Refurb) so I am setting up my X299 Dark with the RTX 2080 KPE.
I needed to order two new SSD Drives so I will not have them until Monday but The EXC will be here today.
This way I will be ready for the 2022 Tour de Primes.
