    I won an artifacting 2070 Super

    Not easily I'm afraid. The only people I know with a PC have even older hardware than I do. I've reinstalled my 980ti after sending an email to the provider of the card, given that I will likely have to send it back, and I've rerun all of the games / benchmarks I've had issues with with...

    I won an artifacting 2070 Super

    Managed to get some footage of issues in the Witcher 3. Similar shading / lighting issues I experienced with TW:W2, though no artifacting this time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSceCZsRzwE&feature=youtu.be Hopefully now with video evidence of issues at stock clocks in two games and...

    I won an artifacting 2070 Super

    Ok, I've just tested it on a T.V. (only have a 1080p one I'm afraid). I selected 1440p with the benchmarks though I don't know if it was actually rendering at that resolution given that my T.V. can't display it, but the Valley benchmark was better but still had the occasional artifact, but...

    Yeah, thanks for the suggestions dude. I didn't think about hooking it up to a TV, I'll go and do that and see if it helps. I have already used DDU to clean the Nvidia drivers and reinstall them, both with and without GFE and I've noticed no difference, so I don't think that's the problem.

    I also feel that because I don't appear to suffer any artifacting on lower demand games, I doubt it's a problem with the cable? I ran Warframe for about an hour last night maxed out at 1440p and didn't seem to have any artifacting. I would have thought that if the cable was the issue if would...

    I won an artifacting 2070 Super

    I have the ROG swift (the original TN version) and it only has a display port connection, so no possibility to check HDMI I'm afraid. I also don't have a spare DP cable either, but I've just swapped out the 2070 for my 980ti (using the same cable) and rerun the benchmarks and have no artifacting...

    I won an artifacting 2070 Super

    Also, the Ventus appears to be MSI's "Budget" card, and so, for whatever reason, in MSI afterburner I can't increase the power limit at all. I did try upping the core voltage last night by +5mV at a time to see if that would stabilize the stock core clock, but got up to about half way on the...

    I won an artifacting 2070 Super

    Just been compiling some video evidence of the problems to link to in emails and thought I could post it here as well. I've noticed that if I run the Unigine benchmarks at 1080p the problems go away (though that isn't true of Firestrike), and if I lower the AA at 1440p to 2x the problems go away...

    I won an artifacting 2070 Super

    I'm sorry to hear that dude. It's a shame to have something lucky to happen only for it to become a massive headache. I'm going to contact the company that sent me the card and see if I can get this rectified - if they don't play ball I'll send an email to Hexus themselves and see if they can...

    I won an artifacting 2070 Super

    Sorry, I should have mentioned the troubleshooting steps I've taken already in the previous post. I've placed the card in a system that has been running my 980ti flawlessly for 5 years. Since noticing the problems I've double checked pci-e connectors, swapped display ports on the card (don't...

    I won an artifacting 2070 Super

    So over christmas I entered a few competitions on Hexus.net and found out on Monday that I had won an MSI 2070 Super Ventus OC (Yay!). The competition was run by Hexus but the prize was provided by and shipped to me by a system integrator based in the U.K. (not sure I can mention the name...

    The Asus ROG SWIFT PG278Q – a 27” 1400p 144Hz Monitor with G-SYNC

    So, I've had my swift for about 10 months now and I'm having the problem where the monitor turns itself on for no reason and sometimes doesn't turn on at all, detailed in this thread on the asus forums: https://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?55509-PG278Q-turning-back-on-by-itself It...

    New G-sync Dell Monitor Graphics Card Issue.

    The fan speed shouldn't be anything close to 25% at 90 degrees. I don't really use afterburner myself but it might be worth double checking that you haven't accidentally set a manual fan curve that you didn't mean to. Outside of that it seems that it may be RMA time I'm afraid, if the fan...

    New G-sync Dell Monitor Graphics Card Issue.

    Also probably a bit of a stupid thing to mention, but I'm assuming that your previous monitor was also 1440p? If you're coming from 1080p that would explain the high(er) temps on your G1, given that your GPU is having to work much harder at the higher resolution.

    New G-sync Dell Monitor Graphics Card Issue.

    Yeah, you can either use a software based frame cap, or simply go into control panel and turn V-sync on. Pretty sure that when you do this with 'monitor technology' set to G-sync it doesn't actually activate V-sync but instead caps it at 143.5 FPS (if using a 144Hz monitor) so G-sync is active...

    Phanteks Enthoo Luxe

    Also, probably a silly question, but is it actually possible to completely turn off the LED strips on the Luxe? I know that you have the button on the front to toggle between colours, but when I'm watching a movie at the PC I like to turn all unnecessary lighting off. Would be pretty annoying...

    Phanteks Enthoo Luxe

    Yeah, it is my plan to remove the included 200mm fan from the front of the case. I know that the phanteks fans are pretty good quality but I really want my rig to maximise both performance and acoustics as much as possible. I feel that I would be able to achieve this much more closely with two...

    Phanteks Enthoo Luxe

    Yeah, I'd really like to get that extra fan as intake on the bottom which would probably fix all my issues but it will mean not being able to use the PSU shroud and honestly I think the shroud really makes the internals look extremely clean. I might try without and see what my temps are and...

    Phanteks Enthoo Luxe

    Only problem I can think with switching the AIO fans to intake is that I will have air being blown down into my case, plus air from the front fans being blown across and up into the case and maybe that would cause some issues generally with adequate exhaust? Also, I could try running my front...
