NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - (PRE)ORDER DISCUSSION **NO COMPETITOR HINTING**

I have been mucking about with the aorus master. I haven’t even opened the astral LC. Too busy tinkering.

@LtMatt asked me what the max overclock and I didn’t know. He told me to to start from stock and go up in +10 increments. And run the fans at 100% on speedway. That shizzle is loud AF so far I am at +310 on the core and waiting for it to crash. I left the room as the racket of those fans at 100% was boiling my ****. Might go back and continue.

My apartment hasn't cooled down from todays sunny weather. Too cold to open the window now but that's about to change as I load up D4 which cooks my 5090 with the overclock I have. I settled on +200 / + 2000 in the end. +250 was very stable as well for me. +285 was stable for benchmarks but starting to get iffy in games. Different card though to you. I have the Xtreme Waterforce. +200 is like 3150-3200 ish on the core for me in non-power limited games but obviously depends on the game as to what it ends up boosting to.

It's currently 26c in my apartment as I load into D4. After an hour, they'll be able to bring SAS recruits into here to see if they can cope with the extreme temps. Only the strongest shall survive.

This is the first time i have owned a higher end card from Giga I generally tend to not get them.

I run most of my 5090's roughly around the 3.0 ghz mark and +3000 on the memory. Memory is easy enough to do.

I am ngl i have been pleasantly suprised by this card. Generally i dont like all black cards and i really wanted the ice version as i like all white cards.

I have been playing with it every spare moment i get and have been enjoying it immensely so much so that the astral Lc that arrived today with it is still in the box unopened and sealed.

I knew you had the giga xtreme waterforce. And i almost bought one to go with my suprm liquid and astral lc but i want to upgrade my monitor setup.
 
Stock seems to be flying in here now from the posts I keep seeing in here. I've been a scrolling back through the updates at the barcode place and I genuinely dont think I would've moved at all since I went elsewhere. It cost me an extra 200 but it has been worth it.

Cancelled my Astral 5090 from barcode and bought the Aorus Master Ice elsewhere. Seems to be stock on other sites of both Astral 5090 and also Ice surprisingly
