Jay take this from a guy whos gaming PC is a AMD FX-8320E and a NVIDA GTX 660. These type of videos are not boring. Though I probably will not be overclocking anytime soon, I love watching these types of videos as each one is a learning process for everyone. While you are practicing I am watching and seeing how you do things so if I get to try it I will already have some experience with it. You showing frustration is great. It shows how hard “just dragging a slider” can be. Please keep it up we love you man 👍
We've all had these moments, it's important to not give up. Even if you have to walk away and just breath, then do that, but don't give up. Thanks for the vid, as well as, you and your teams effort to entertain and inform. Mucho appreciated.
Things like the lightbulb would have never been invented if they just gave up. These things can take years. Yeah I know, It's not quite the same concept, but in the end, patience will overcome frustration. I've experienced first hand in life many times, where just stepping back and giving it time leads to an answer that turned out to be quite simple. Thus, the KISS analogy. Jay's smart enough to figure this out, if he wants to. Looking forward to that day!
I honestly really loved this. This shows what true passion for a hobby looks like! As a computer case modder its not uncommon for frustration to get the better of me and mistakes are made, only to realize what they were after that "Burst" Love the LN2 series, its great to see you explore all avenues of the hobby! Keep on being Jay!
This is 1000% true "I've tried literally everything and every combination of settings and tweaks and nothing works except for sometimes when it works even though I've changed literally nothing between the last test and this one"
True story: Server took 10mins to get through it's BIOS/POST/RAID card initialization, multiple engineers couldn't work out why, even going as far as to replace the RAID cards with no effect. One day I accidentally trod on the keyboard, broke it almost in half. Replaced it - problem immediately went away. 1st gen USB keyboard was upsetting the mobo USB controller when polled by the BIOS.
Its not frustrating to watch at all, its rather fun. Its fun seeing angry Jay as well as it is to see you normally in your calm way. Hope you find the problem because the high you get from solving a deadlock you've been stuck at for so long is so good. Even if you don't record it, I would still want to know if you got through it so please let us know on Twitter.
This shows us an actual true, proper human reaction most don't show. Please keep going it doesn't matter other people do these, some make the whole topic seem really boring, when it's actually amazing. Look forward to the next 1.
I`ve had days like that trying to fault find on PC`s . It`s great watching someone elses frustration gradually reach boiling point and despair . Good on you for sharing this JayZ .
Love your stuff Jay. Keep your head up. Hvac technician here, and I don’t believe there are many (if any) similarities between what you’re doing here and me trying diagnose a struggling refrigeration system by looking at pressures, temperatures and symptoms on my gauges while someone’s house is 90 degrees in the middle of summer but I recognize that state of frustration, and I respect it. It comes from good intentions, a lot of knowledge to be that far into trying to solve a problem, and not accounting for something fairly basic that you overlooked. I believe in you! Keep up the good content
Pretty sure Kingpin would take that card @2700MHz no problem. But I think it's kinda normal, you can't expect, with just 3-4 years of experience, to know as much as people doing it for their entire life/career.
jayz honestly i find these overclocking videos really fun to watch, theyre not boring at all i hope they dont get discontinued :( hopefully kingpin will be able to give you a more detailed process into overclocking these cards at some point
We all have those kinds of moments when you need to stop doing something, take a step back and re-evaluate if it's worth it. Thank you for sharing yours
This shows a lot about a person to openly show their frustration despite how bad they feel about themselves for showing it. Fair play to you Jay love your work!

While I don't do any kind of extreme overclocking, I've been building and fixing computers for 25 years (almost) and I've had situations where it seems like nothing wants to work right even though I know what to do, the hardware/software just refuses to cooperate. It's like why isn't this working as everything checks out individually but not as a whole and I get so frustrated I too just want to chuck some stuff across a room and let me tell you, all it does is cost you money and you are still frustrated. In these instances I try my hardest to chuck soft stuff or cheap stuff I didn't need anymore.
Jay i built my first pc today, ryzen 7 3700x and a 3070, just wanted to thank you for all the help and guidance throughout my "journey". Wouldn't have been able to do it without u thank you!!
I like these videos. Even though you failed, I learned something my man. Keep it up another time. Even though it may be a good bin, it may not be good enough to do what you're wanting it to.
Don't give up Jay. We want to see the struggles and frustrations that go along with overclocking. This is what makes your videos real. I respect you for what you do, lot of people dont want show this side of overclocking. Everything isn't success. Keep grinding my dude, you'll get there!
Lol whether you want to keep going with this or not, we true fans are still gonna be here. Appreciate you showing us something that some of us never really knew was a hobby.
This is not boring. It's fun to watch. Not because you may fail. Because I'm learning a metric shit ton!! Keep trying. you're not a quitter!! Thank you all for your hard work!!
Ooof.... Ive had those moments, not with OC stuff but at work.. Only way is to stop walk away for a while and then come back to it... Hahaha but man do I feel your pain Jay... 😩
Mate I've been there with water cooling... and it can be a nightmare so we feel your pain, however I love these because you're getting the real world problems us overclockers get so stick with it and keep these videos going!!!
Your sharing knowledge, demonstrations, and how-to are most important to me in practical application than in the extreme. Being able to clock CPU/Cards/System up to top sustainable levels for best efforts in games, simulators, graphics applications is the most valuable and adds greatly to the community. You know where to look and when to look there, sharing that special knowledge is golden!
i genuinely am really looking forward to what was going wrong and how it will be fixed. i understand getting frustrated and losing your cool and then feeling upset at yourself for losing composure. happens to everyone Jay, and trust me youre better getting out then holding it in. Rooting for you to take the number 2 spot behind kingpin.
I'll start by saying I have no clue what is going on at times or what is to be expected, but I can get behind what you're saying, I noticed (of course editing can make it difficult to tell sometimes, just keeping it in mind) he wasn't pouring it right before some of the tests, he was letting it stew a lot longer before the test began, talk about fine dancing and he did get far in the tests! Pouring quite steadily later in the tests, I bet the temps where going so crazy fast in all directions that a splash regulates the chaos and that's what makes it have little impact on as you say "peaks of voltage" and then he decided the best course was upping the voltage and reduce the clock? so it doesn't get hotter? again I am confused as to how this all works, arguably making the spikes much more dramatic and harder to control I bet. I'd pay attention to the voltage while playing with temps, rule out more of the possibilities and of other things playing a role in the madness too.
@JazekFTW Close, but not quite - it's not the transient load-off voltage spike that causes instability, it's what happens afterwards. With LLC set too high, the VRM will over-compensate it's voltage correction and undershoot the target voltage. It'll then over-compensate for the undershoot and will overshoot the voltage, and then undershoot again, and overshoot again, etc etc. The corrections do get smaller each time so the voltage will level off where it should be, but the higher the LLC setting the longer it takes to do that and longer the window of opportunity for a load to be re-applied to the core while it's potentially power-starved. Not that you can see any of this going on without hooking up an oscilloscope to your voltage lines, but VRM frequencies are (generally speaking) much lower than core operating frequencies, so these corrections take a freakin' age to even out as far as the core is concerned.
Jason, NOW you know what amateur golfers (like I was) go through when they start playing, think they're getting better (like I did), then have an AWFUL outing (even AFTER getting to Assistant Golf Pro status). It's soooo frustrating at the same time, fun and intriguing. You tell yourself, you can get better, then you have another bad day, and you break clubs, cuss like a sailor and threaten to quit. Then, the next sunny day, you're back out there. Keep it up, dude... at least WE'RE having fun watching!
Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
As some others said I'll never be personally into extreme over clocking However, it's really interesting to watch you go through it and show when it doesn't go well
The program CRU (custom resolution utility) comes with a utility to restart the graphics driver called restart64.exe, should be useful for you in between benchmark runs
My life work as a technician for 40 years is to troubleshoot equipment. Troubleshooting is not getting angry because the equipment won't comply with your expectations. Creating a test situation that can be measured to improve performance or "decrease performance" is a learning opportunity to improve the equipment. I would suggest sleeping on it. Countless times I worked for days or weeks on a project, went to bed and the work turned over and over in my mind sometimes for hours, and I woke up with a solution that not only worked but improved the equipment.
Couldn’t have said it better. Doing well, but this is a long hole. Need to go further? Hit it with more power! But it didn’t work and now you’re unhappy, only to go back to what you were doing originally and it doesn’t work at all anymore. Then you’re just angry
learning a new riff on guitar and your fingers keep tripping over themselves, so you try to play it slightly different, but now it's even worse. Does every hobby have these problems?
I know that you're not very proud of this video, Jay, but honestly, your frustration was relatable even though I probably won't ever end up doing Extreme Overclocking. "'Why do you keep doing this to yourself?' I don't know!" This is some major mood.
Jay I understand you're frustration, I and many enthusiasts do really enjoy you're ln2 videos, please don't give up, you said it you're self YOU AIN'T NO QUITTER
I gotta say, Jay - as a software engineer I know EXACTLY how you're feeling. I'm all too familiar with a fun challenge of trial and error descending into bewilderment and frustration And holy shit, watching you angry is like looking in a mirror 😅
OH man, when I get angry, which I try not to do, I get irrational too. I try to keep calm and just walk away for a bit, but when I start getting frustrated and desperate, and I don't understand what's wrong, I get really angry. 99% of the time, it's some assumption I'm making, and no matter how hard I look at the problem, I can't see past my assumptions, and I usually miss something simple and stupid.
I'm sorry you had problems man. I would bet you will figure it out and once you do you will be having so much fun, but some times you just have to step away. I have never done anything like this so I can't really help at all and I am not one of those people to talk about something I have no idea about! Have a good one man and God Bless my friend!
I hear you man! I know exactly what you are going through. Thanks for making the videos. I love each one. If you decide not to do it anymore, I completely understand. I personally would love to see more though. Either way, I'm sticking with this channel until the end of days. Yo guys fucking rock! Keep up the good work guys.
@jayz2cents. Dude you rock with your persistence. Couple of things to think about. 1. How can you capture continuous telemetry from all the components to analyze the crashes ?(All the lowly level activity, temp by component, voltage, power draw etc ). 2. Is there a way you can automate the Ln2 deployment without using your hand ? I.e automate through a pump with feedback from telemetry on temp. You can do this.
Failures in life are one of the most important life lessons you can learn. Most importantly they teach us what we need to to succeed , they give us the determination do be better and figure out what we did wrong, or else we are simply doomed to repeat them forever over and over, especially if we give up when it gets hard. You already know that answer Jay, you said it yourself you are guessing because you don't know what is happening with voltages and temps, so you need find a way to probe those live, and at the same time NEVER be afraid to ask questions, especially when you fail, Kingpin was not always an expert , he became a expert cause he learned from his mistakes and got better, so ask him, to help you get better, and figure out where you are going wrong. Jay I would much rather watch a million videos of you try something and fail and figure out the problem, than ones of you getting it working straight away. Loved watching these LN2 over clocking videos. Don't give up, looking forward to the next one, you will figure it out , good luck.
"And that's what makes it so difficult is the fact that I'm no very good at this. I want to get better but I'm at the same stupid wall, constantly. And I know *I'm * doing something wrong, I just don't know what it is" Same dude, same.
The only thing LN2 does is prove your score is virtually bigger than someone else’s. It’s 100% pointless unless you’re genuinely interested in some superficial leaderboard that only appeals to a very select number of people. There is little scientific or meaningful study behind it either as Steve (GamersNexus) has said many times. Like anything, it can become an ego “bragging rights” problem when you take it too serious. This isn’t for Jay IMHO. As a content-driven hobby, maybe it’s good for him (I’m not saying he can’t do it by the way) but this is clearly the wrong mentality to have when you’re supposed to be enjoying it. It indicates, once again, that this is about point-scoring a virtual leaderboard taken too far. Jay needs to take a break and then come back to it with a different mindset - preferably one without chasing numbers of OC’ers that have been doing this for decades and will obviously know the every trick of the trade by now.
I can feel your frustration and know how you feel. I'm the same way, I like to know why things and when you cant figure it out it makes you even more mad.
Wow sorry it went so poorly, 🙈 thank you being real! The fact you post it even when you are not successful,is what makes you come across as sincere. I have been hoping you have at least one stellar score😎
People who overclock: Hmm if I add more voltage I can get more frames with higher clock speeds Me: Hmm If I drop my voltage I can keep the stock boost clocks but save 10c
@@babnane918 how to get a ryzen 5 2600x to run 3.8GHz stable with good temps using the stock cooler. Fun, but I still prefer the 4.1GHz I get with a water cooling xD
@Ankit Meher I agree. Shame to kill nice hardware. But LN2 OC is a wasted effort. Don't get me wrong, I love LN2, I use it all the time as a condensed matter physicist to do real science. But trying to get 5 points more than the previous guy, one can use their time more productively, like actually playing a game.
Keep on with the over clocking its just a process of elimination when your running into problems go back to factory settings and make a new run from that point
Showing the real side of overclocking which makes it a great video, not just the perfect end result that would have created a false impression of it been easy.
Yup. Every time he pulls off the C clamp the pressure will always ever so slightly lift off no matter how tight you make the surrounding nuts because they can't keep that center pressure like the C clamp was doing. Actually makes the contact worse unless he left the C clamp on the whole time to keep the consistent pressure it's giving.
We called it! Lmao check out his most recent video. Kingpin told him the exact same thing we said was happening with the C clamp and he tried it while keeping the C clamp on this time like I said and started seeing progress. I feel like a genius right now even though it's kinda common sense lol.
The definition of insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result- Albert Einstein a very frustrated scientist at times. Hey, look on the bright side Jay, you're in good company. Give it some thought and time and the solution to the problem will eventually come to you. Ask yourself what changed since my good runs and start to eliminate those variables. Might even be a software problem and not a hardware problem.
LLC levels change the transient response and voltage spikes. The same settings aren't working anymore because the stability, the temperature of some VRM components and with it the efficiency of the Voltage/transient response is different. so now it spikes even 0.0125v difference that for that core clock is not stable and crashes instantly. You should ask buildzoid ( Actually Hardcore Overclocking) to helping you understand how that works.
Haha. That was entertaining Jay. I love that you decided to post this video even though you got so frustrated, because it shows you are only human and even the best can't know everything. Great video.
I appreciate you doing the LN2 videos. Sorry you got so frustrated, totally feel that frustration when you can’t tell what’s causing the problem and then what worked just fine doesn’t work…..appreciate you making the videos
While ill never get into extreme overclocking myself, I do really enjoy watching you do it. Even when it ends in frustration.
Yeah same here. I love computers and tinkering but that's more extreme than I could go.

As some others said I'll never be personally into extreme over clocking
However, it's really interesting to watch you go through it and show when it doesn't go well
The program CRU (custom resolution utility) comes with a utility to restart the graphics driver called restart64.exe, should be useful for you in between benchmark runs
My life work as a technician for 40 years is to troubleshoot equipment. Troubleshooting is not getting angry because the equipment won't comply with your expectations. Creating a test situation that can be measured to improve performance or "decrease performance" is a learning opportunity to improve the equipment. I would suggest sleeping on it. Countless times I worked for days or weeks on a project, went to bed and the work turned over and over in my mind sometimes for hours, and I woke up with a solution that not only worked but improved the equipment.
I was just waiting for him to pour one of his bottles over the damn thing lol
Please Jay, make more of these. I died at the end
*frustration approching max level
Jay : "lets go really cold!"
Golfing feels similar to overclocking.
Amen to that!
Couldn’t have said it better. Doing well, but this is a long hole. Need to go further? Hit it with more power! But it didn’t work and now you’re unhappy, only to go back to what you were doing originally and it doesn’t work at all anymore. Then you’re just angry
learning a new riff on guitar and your fingers keep tripping over themselves, so you try to play it slightly different, but now it's even worse.
Does every hobby have these problems?
Last time I went golfing I shot a 68, then I went to the second hole. That darn clown was a real witch with a capital B.
I know that you're not very proud of this video, Jay, but honestly, your frustration was relatable even though I probably won't ever end up doing Extreme Overclocking.
"'Why do you keep doing this to yourself?' I don't know!" This is some major mood.
"I am a cause-and-effect-guy!"
_Thermal issues enter the stage_
Jay I understand you're frustration, I and many enthusiasts do really enjoy you're ln2 videos, please don't give up, you said it you're self YOU AIN'T NO QUITTER
I gotta say, Jay - as a software engineer I know EXACTLY how you're feeling. I'm all too familiar with a fun challenge of trial and error descending into bewilderment and frustration
And holy shit, watching you angry is like looking in a mirror 😅
OH man, when I get angry, which I try not to do, I get irrational too. I try to keep calm and just walk away for a bit, but when I start getting frustrated and desperate, and I don't understand what's wrong, I get really angry. 99% of the time, it's some assumption I'm making, and no matter how hard I look at the problem, I can't see past my assumptions, and I usually miss something simple and stupid.
+1
I'm sorry you had problems man. I would bet you will figure it out and once you do you will be having so much fun, but some times you just have to step away. I have never done anything like this so I can't really help at all and I am not one of those people to talk about something I have no idea about! Have a good one man and God Bless my friend!
0:03 and with current market situation that would be... an empty H500 case.
I hear you man! I know exactly what you are going through. Thanks for making the videos. I love each one. If you decide not to do it anymore, I completely understand. I personally would love to see more though. Either way, I'm sticking with this channel until the end of days. Yo guys fucking rock! Keep up the good work guys.
This is when you realize that there is only a fine line between xOC & xOCD.
What does the D in xOCD stand for?
@@fouriejooste9484 *Xtreme* Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
OC xD
🥺 I can feel you're frustration. Bleeping bleep be good to yourself Jay.
This video made me feel better about my Overclocking on air and aio issues lol.
Wow I wanted to just be there and give Jay a hug. I really hope Nick did because sometimes that is just really needed for your sanity
I'm starting to miss phil's laughter and banter :(
are they not still working together?
@@dztv7 nah he doesn't do much of the camera work anymore it seems
@@dztv7 I believe he's focusing on editing the videos currently. Don't know if that's a more long term plan to split the load with Nick.
Nick has been doing the video and Phil doing the editing for the 31 video series of December.
Nah. Phil is annoying as fuck.
@jayz2cents. Dude you rock with your persistence. Couple of things to think about. 1. How can you capture continuous telemetry from all the components to analyze the crashes ?(All the lowly level activity, temp by component, voltage, power draw etc ). 2. Is there a way you can automate the Ln2 deployment without using your hand ? I.e automate through a pump with feedback from telemetry on temp. You can do this.
jay smashes everything "ibrokeit!"
You forget the explosions!
@@GuyPipili can't say that word or megumin will smash through the wall like the cool aid guy.
Hahaha
I had tons of fun watching these videos and I'm sad to see it didn't work. But It was fun going this road with you Jay!
We need more overclocking!
Failures in life are one of the most important life lessons you can learn. Most importantly they teach us what we need to to succeed , they give us the determination do be better and figure out what we did wrong, or else we are simply doomed to repeat them forever over and over, especially if we give up when it gets hard.
You already know that answer Jay, you said it yourself you are guessing because you don't know what is happening with voltages and temps, so you need find a way to probe those live, and at the same time NEVER be afraid to ask questions, especially when you fail, Kingpin was not always an expert , he became a expert cause he learned from his mistakes and got better, so ask him, to help you get better, and figure out where you are going wrong.
Jay I would much rather watch a million videos of you try something and fail and figure out the problem, than ones of you getting it working straight away. Loved watching these LN2 over clocking videos. Don't give up, looking forward to the next one, you will figure it out , good luck.
Perhaps Jay should look at replacing his power supply or introducing a line-interactive supply?
"And that's what makes it so difficult is the fact that I'm no very good at this. I want to get better but I'm at the same stupid wall, constantly. And I know *I'm * doing something wrong, I just don't know what it is"
Same dude, same.
well you've convinced me never to even try this nonsense
thats cause liquid nitrogen doesn't solve ANYTHING it just breaks it
The only thing LN2 does is prove your score is virtually bigger than someone else’s. It’s 100% pointless unless you’re genuinely interested in some superficial leaderboard that only appeals to a very select number of people. There is little scientific or meaningful study behind it either as Steve (GamersNexus) has said many times. Like anything, it can become an ego “bragging rights” problem when you take it too serious. This isn’t for Jay IMHO. As a content-driven hobby, maybe it’s good for him (I’m not saying he can’t do it by the way) but this is clearly the wrong mentality to have when you’re supposed to be enjoying it. It indicates, once again, that this is about point-scoring a virtual leaderboard taken too far. Jay needs to take a break and then come back to it with a different mindset - preferably one without chasing numbers of OC’ers that have been doing this for decades and will obviously know the every trick of the trade by now.
These videos are really good and informational. I think everyone has been in that fatigued stressed state, so it's relatable.
Was about to sleep, well i guess not!
I can feel your frustration and know how you feel. I'm the same way, I like to know why things and when you cant figure it out it makes you even more mad.
More overclocking 😃 great to see real videos! A failure is a step to success! Like Thomas Edison with his 10000 light bulb experiments! Ride on! 👍
Wow sorry it went so poorly, 🙈 thank you being real! The fact you post it even when you are not successful,is what makes you come across as sincere. I have been hoping you have at least one stellar score😎
People who overclock: Hmm if I add more voltage I can get more frames with higher clock speeds
Me: Hmm If I drop my voltage I can keep the stock boost clocks but save 10c
Ryzen overclocking in a nutshell
But but... I water cool and don't need to save 10c.
Or you drop the voltage and rise the clocks.. then you get more frames and less temperature ^^
@@babnane918 how to get a ryzen 5 2600x to run 3.8GHz stable with good temps using the stock cooler. Fun, but I still prefer the 4.1GHz I get with a water cooling xD
Overclocking is a religion; people don't do that for 1/2 fps more, but for reach the max possibility of their hardware!
Do not give up. You will hate yourself. These videos are good. And real. Keep going matey
Jay, just kill the card, then you'll be over with this frustrating hobby.
but 1.5k
@Ankit Meher I agree. Shame to kill nice hardware. But LN2 OC is a wasted effort. Don't get me wrong, I love LN2, I use it all the time as a condensed matter physicist to do real science. But trying to get 5 points more than the previous guy, one can use their time more productively, like actually playing a game.
Thanks for keeping it real, showing the highs and lows. Kudos.
This is how I am with basic overclocking. xD
Keep on with the over clocking its just a process of elimination when your running into problems go back to factory settings and make a new run from that point
Jay my man you are very epic...everyone slap like now
Wtf
Get a life
Showing the real side of overclocking which makes it a great video, not just the perfect end result that would have created a false impression of it been easy.
Please, stop using the C Clamp. When u release the clamp it probably F’s your mounting contact!
Yup. Every time he pulls off the C clamp the pressure will always ever so slightly lift off no matter how tight you make the surrounding nuts because they can't keep that center pressure like the C clamp was doing. Actually makes the contact worse unless he left the C clamp on the whole time to keep the consistent pressure it's giving.
We called it! Lmao check out his most recent video. Kingpin told him the exact same thing we said was happening with the C clamp and he tried it while keeping the C clamp on this time like I said and started seeing progress. I feel like a genius right now even though it's kinda common sense lol.
Don't give up bro...u will get there..and these videos are far from boring, I'll keep watching, u got this!!
Specially designed Nvidia cards on LN2 can't even hit speeds that rDNA2 cards can hit on air lol
i actually really enjoy these vids, not boring at all! But if it’s getting on your nerves that much than a break is always needed
I was just waiting for him to throw something at the wall at mach 5
I love these videos. Please dont stop making them. Life is full of hills you have to climb. But damn i would love to see, when you get to the top.
The definition of insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result- Albert Einstein a very frustrated scientist at times.
Hey, look on the bright side Jay, you're in good company. Give it some thought and time and the solution to the problem will eventually come to you. Ask yourself what changed since my good runs and start to eliminate those variables. Might even be a software problem and not a hardware problem.
I just hope Jay continues making these LN2 videos because they are entertaining, so long as he isn't hulking out anymore.
"That's how you pass an object through an object"
LLC levels change the transient response and voltage spikes. The same settings aren't working anymore because the stability, the temperature of some VRM components and with it the efficiency of the Voltage/transient response is different.
so now it spikes even 0.0125v difference that for that core clock is not stable and crashes instantly.
You should ask buildzoid (
Actually Hardcore Overclocking) to helping you understand how that works.
Actually, that was pretty entertaining
This was a good honest video. It makes ME feel better when I run into these same frustrations knowing I'm not the only one!
Don't apologize for being human. We all get pissed off sometimes. It's how we recover from it that matters.
Haha. That was entertaining Jay. I love that you decided to post this video even though you got so frustrated, because it shows you are only human and even the best can't know everything. Great video.
"Frustralian...?" As an Aussie, I resemble that remark... :P
I appreciate you doing the LN2 videos. Sorry you got so frustrated, totally feel that frustration when you can’t tell what’s causing the problem and then what worked just fine doesn’t work…..appreciate you making the videos
