    3090FE - changing Thermal pads

    My best 3090 score alone tipped yours at 21441 - properly at the limits of what stock cards can do without flashing the bios, always hitting the power limit with tonnes of temp head room.

    Upgrade time?? - but those Watt calculators seem overkill?

    So - i recently upgraded my rig to 5900x and been running a 3090FE for last year and i like to overclock, landing a 20,000 timespy score recently I have had my trusty Corsair AX860i PSU for the last 9 years and thought it was still going strong. So recently i have ran in to some oddities and i...

    3090FE - changing Thermal pads

    Did a bit of tinkering and finally tipped 20k with a 20018 total (21306 gpu/14913 CPU) GPU stock FE cooler - CPU on water. :D That mod was £15 well spent!

    3090FE - changing Thermal pads

    OMG...I just did the back plate thermal pad replacement ...managed it with one pack of 90x50 extreme.... So I was getting around 103c in gaming scenarios and 108c when overclocking and benchmarking in timespy. I just ran timespy and not only did I get a higher score, I peaked at 86c. That...

    *** The Official Battlefield 2042 thread***

    I can't believe more fuss isn't being made about the specialist thing. ....it just makes ZERO sense. I swear I was on the map with 119 other Websters! Why aren't there different characters for the factions? Sure I guess we only ever used to have 8 character models before ...but now they have...

    *** The Official Battlefield 2042 thread***

    I hate hate hate hate hate the specialists... Think it's such a stupid idea...I thought they were going to be hero's like in battlefront but nope...we could have like 60 guys call wikus running around .. Anywho... I had terrible stuttering with overclocked 3090, so put back to stock and all...

    5900x very low cinebench r23 score

    It was Ryzen Master... So the bios only had Auto and CCD1 option.... I had messed around with Ryzen Master earlier and didn't like it so uninstalled it. Turned out "gaming mode" disables half your cores in favour of single core boost clock. I reinstalled Ryzen Master, rest everything and then...

    So I switched teams and I might regret it

    I guess all core yea - this is what i mean, its a bit confusing - during the 8700k days you had one goal.. to ramp that bad boy up. So i like benchmarking in time spy - during the CPU benchmark I got to 5.148ghz on 3 cores, 5.048ghz on 3 cores, and 4.873 ghz on the remaining 6 cores. That is...

    So I switched teams and I might regret it

    I am a seasoned overclocker of a 4770k and 8700k... I just gave up my prize 5.4ghz 8700k system and joined the hype on an x570 5900x. I have an EK custom loop with a velocity block....and man...I cannot figure out how to overclock Ryzen. Have followed about 50 YouTube tutorials and everything...

    New system......new ram? (Zen 3)

    New system......new ram? (Zen 3)

    Thanks. My current kit is g.skill trident z RGB... It did OC to 3200mhz cl15 on my intel system...but I had to reduce to he cpu OC to 5.2 GHz from 5.4ghz for stability. I game and record / produce music on a 3440*1440p ultra wide with a 3090. I can grab another identical set of 2*8gb trident...

    New system......new ram? (Zen 3)

    So I have taken the plunge and retired the long sweated 8700k and bought an x570 and 5900x AMD system. I do like a good overclock having ran my 8700k at 5.4ghz on water for the best part of 4 years.... and I believe to get the most out of zen 3 you need good ram. So I have 16gb of g...

    Anyone not going to upgrade their GPU this year, come what may?

    The 2080 launched Sept 20th. I ordered an FE from Nvidia on Oct 15th with next day delivery. I remember it was after the arse fell out of mining. It's definitely a manufacturing and supply chain issue this year maybe due to the pandemic .. sure bots and flea bay are an issue but there is...

    Anyone not going to upgrade their GPU this year, come what may?

    I kinda got caught up in the hype but don't need an upgrade. Although my 2080 doesn't give me the performance I want is the issue since going to a 3440*1440 screen..... But it's not worth selling a kidney for. I am disappointed the pricing especially when the 3070 launches will destroy the...

    Cleaning after pastel.

    So I had run pastel green for a couple years, last cleaning with blitz about 9 months ago. So last week I did a total tear down. First flushed, ran blitz, took everything apart, manually cleaned everything, including blitzing rads, put back together with fresh tube, ran another flush, another...
