    Undervolting GPU should be standard procedure

    I would check your settings again mate. If your card is only boosting to 1815 that means you have the flat line of your curve (starting at the 850mv) down at 1785-1815 somewhere. If you want it to boost to 1920 (assuming your card will be stable) you would need to send the line to 1890-1920 at...

    AIO position and Nvidia FE GPU findings

    Nice one mate, glad it helped. I can game for hours on end and because the overall temp in the pc is lower it's exhausting lower temps into the room as opposed to hotter air with higher fans to keep things cool so my room temp is nicer too.

    AIO position and Nvidia FE GPU findings

    Is yours an FE as well or an AIB card?

    AIO position and Nvidia FE GPU findings

    Good choice. I think the Arctic is a bit cheaper than the equivalent EK. EK is supposedly easier to install the block (easiest on market perhaps) but Arctic is decent too. Once installed both trade blows with one another so can't really go wrong with one or the other. I think Arctic also changed...

    AIO position and Nvidia FE GPU findings

    I sit there in shorts and t-shirt, meanwhile gf is in wooly PJ bottoms, hoodie, throw blanket, massive socks and still says she is cold. They really are cold blooded to the point I may as well just put a big rock in front of my living room window for her to bask on.....

    AIO position and Nvidia FE GPU findings

    No worries glad to help. I know you said you were researching aios. As much as I like my Lian li galahad 240 I mainly got it because it was white and I have a white case. If I had your case I would go: Ek 240 basic - all black no RGB but great cooling Arctic liquid freezer ii 240 - non RGB but...

    AIO position and Nvidia FE GPU findings

    Did a quick check of the case specs, I would probably go: 2x 120 intake > rad > internals > top 120 exhaust> rear 120 exhaust When you said intake>rad>exh did you mean push pull on the 240 rad? Because from testing (various YouTube videos about this) the extra 2 fans on back of rad make...

    AIO position and Nvidia FE GPU findings

    Haha I mean she is always colder than me and likes the heat so the fact even she commented on it was the final straw that made me decide to swap things around. I have 2 monitors a 3440x1440 144hz ultrawide and a 2560x1440 144hz secondary monitor

    AIO position and Nvidia FE GPU findings

    I guess a mix of the FE cooler design and the large power requirements lead to some interesting results when they are in a case. I wish I could help more as I do have a noctua NH D15 around and I was going to try that and see what effect the 3080ti had on it but I currently have no spare...

    AIO position and Nvidia FE GPU findings

    Just thought I would post to see if anyone else has found themselves in a similar situation and share my findings. Case: be quiet purebase 500dx CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 Mobo: x570 taichi Ram: 16gb 8 pac 3200 cl14 Case fans: 2x noctua NF A14. 1x silent wings 2 140 AIO: lian-li Galahad 240 GPU: 3080ti...

    The Ampere RTX 3080 Ti Owners Thread

    Managed to get hold of a 3080ti FE today, not the magical mythical 3080 Fe I would have liked but when comparing all the cards around £1000 it seemed like the best option. Should pair well with my new 3440x1440 monitor and I like the fact I have RT and DLSS not that any games use them that I...

    Are RX 6800 XT not wanted?

    That made me chuckle

    PowerColor 6700XT Fighter Teardown

    Bah, reading this post felt like watching an episode of something you are really enjoying only to realise it's the end of the current season, ended on a cliffhanger and now have to wait to find out what happened . Roll on Monday

    30xx Series Founders Edition

    Yeah they had a lot of 380ti, 3090 and later 3070ti cards. Here's hoping we get some of those magical 3080fe in ours although any cards are a blessing

    Which GPU for 3440x1440?

    To update. I get about 80-90 FPS in overwatch. 110-144 in apex depending what is going on. Haven't tried new world yet which is what I will be playing soon so will test it in the upcoming beta weekend. Sure league and other mobas will do 144 no issue. I did try a couple of mmo style games and a...

    Which GPU for 3440x1440?

    If only I could get my hands on a magical 3080fe. Otherwise I am waiting for the 3080, 3080ti or 6900xt cards to dip in price a bit

    Which GPU for 3440x1440?

    Yeah with it also being closest to it's MSRP outside of the FE drops I am seriously considering it. Don't think many games I play make use of RT or DLSS

    Are RX 6800 XT not wanted?

    I mean as a business decision I get it. They have limited stock of MBA cards and it's probably a hassle with Brexit setting up to sell them within the UK and why bother when you can just ship them to the EU and sell them all anyway. I think under "normal" circumstances that we wouldn't really...

    Which GPU for 3440x1440?

    It's a 144hz screen so as close to 144 as possible is ideal but can of course use freesync or gsync if below

    What tools do I need to build a PC?

    I bought a kit with various small screwdrivers easy to use in a case and I would also advise cable ties (not a tool but very handy)
