The software used on this forum is stupid.

Half my post is invisible even though it's visible if go to the edit window.

 

[Davedree]

Actually coil buzz is less than the Nitro, however even if you try to listen to it, the jet engine in there covers everything

that's exactly what I said when I first got mine.

Found this issue on Windows Phone 10 with Edge. Also half the times I posted an image using edge, I got banned because it was perceived as hot linking images.

What ho gentlemen, I'm glad to apply to the ROH.
This gpu rocks, even more with the UV/OC you guys advised!

I did a buy! Happy birthday to me, from me.

Bit concerned with the CPU AIO tubes touching the cards backplate but nothings died yet

You are fine.

Chop now 70mv from P6 & P7 states, raise the Power settings (under the HBM) to 1000 and set HBM to 1100.
Raise PL to +50% and you are set.

I'd be more concerned about the Nitro+ literally breathing the fart from the AIO's rad!

To get on the Roll of Honour all you have to do is post a pic with your user name on it of your Vega 64.

[iB CoMpL3XiTy]

You are fine.

Chop now 70mv from P6 & P7 states, raise the Power settings (under the HBM) to 1000 and set HBM to 1100.
Raise PL to +50% and you are set.

Thanks for the settings, they worked great (tested in TimeSpy)

I'd be more concerned about the Nitro+ literally breathing the fart from the AIO's rad!

Same. I could reverse the AIO fans so they're sucking air out through the rad and out the top of the case but then they'd be pulling hot air from the GPU. Could mount the AIO to the front of the case but the front case airflow is dire. Surprisingly temps are actually fine, CPU is at about 50c and haven't seen the GPU go past 75c

On a separate note, I think the GPU is CPU bottlenecked, in FarCry5 with settings on High with HD textures @ 3440 x 1440 I'm seeing FPS between about 48 to 75 (my frame rate cap) but the GPU is very often at about 70-80% usage. I'm using a 3930K @ stock, will see if overclocking it helps.

Well it's not going to hit 100% usage if the frame rate is capped is it. The minimums look CPU limited but they usually are with any CPU, your average frame-rate is artificially lowered by the cap reducing GPU demand.

No, I mean even when the frame rate is below my cap the GPU usage isnt 100% frame rate could be 50 for example and GPU usage might be 80%.

Yeah, funny after so many posts that "Vega is bad value for money" ... tides have turned a bit haven't they?

 

[burtie]

I'm looking at getting the Sapphire Vega 64 in a couple of weeks. I currently have this power supply https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ante...plus-gold-modular-power-supply-ca-24n-an.html
Will I need more watts and if so how much? cheers.

It should be fine for moderate oc.

 

[TonyTurbo78]

It's a strong card for up to 1440p. On water it's a bit of a beast to be fair.

The Nitro or Reference?

Hmmmm.... getting thisblack and white dot effect when my PC wakes up... any ideas? Driver or card?
