You won't be disappointed! And no need for a 2000W power supply :D

I went from a 1070 to a 3070FE and the difference has been huge. Seems the 3060ti is only maybe 10% slower than the 3070 so I would say it's a great buy for the price!

@0007 I would also like to add that your updates are very much appreciated, keep them up.

i7 6700K here, with a 3070 founders. I'm still pretty happy with it, performance is good enough for me ATM. Flight sim is getting 30-60fps @ 1440p with everything on max. That's with render scaling as my monitor is a pretty lame 1080p AOC. Was tempted by a 12700K setup but think I'm going to...

@mrk I'm still on a 6700K so would be great to hear your comparisons when you get set up! Toying with a 12700K upgrade....

I was in the same boat, had a 1070, served me really well, but managed to snag a 3070FE back in March for £469. It's a pretty massive performance increase, and as the 1070 cost me £439 back in 2016 I was pretty chuffed with the upgrade. So yeah, like everyone else says, if you can get a...

No problem mate, hope you get it sorted!

@Jay85 also I've just checked in my mix-up component bits cupboard and have a few of the Noctua NA-RC7 4 pin low noise adapters lying around doing nothing. If you want to have a try at modding them just PM me your address and I'll send you a couple for free. :)

I hear you there, I'm the same with fiddly stuff, but as it's just 4 wires it might be worth a punt? Wouldn't be too costly either if you messed it up.....

Have a search for Noctua NA-SRC7, they are low noise adapters, not sure if this is what you're after? Edit: Just noticed that you are after a mini connector...... wonder if it could be modified?

Wow, I imagine that it cools really well but I would have thought Noctua would have made a much nicer looking cooler for that thing...... Frankencard!

Does sound like a bit of a pain in the rear, that's why I posted really, wondering if there was a lazy way to do it or if any FE owners had achieved fully stable UV's. But like ScottiB says every card is different so I guess it's the luck of the draw with regards to stability aswell

Ok thanks guys! I guess some testing and benchmarks are in order......

Hi, My 3070 founders gets pretty warm, especially during flight sim, max 76/77c but generally around 73-75c. So I'm thinking of undervolting it to keep it a bit cooler and quieter. However looking at a few guides online each of them seem to use different settings so it's a bit confusing... I...

Yeah it doesn't show in GPU-z either. Guess they didn't put a sensor in the 3070 memory. Ignorance is bliss though, it's probably a good thing I can't see it :cry: That's pretty impressive stats on the undervolt mind, especially power usage and temps. Seems like the way forward....

Yeah I have HWinfo but it doesn't seem to monitor the memory temps of the 3070. Only 3080 and above. Maybe only works on GDDR6x?

I was considering an undervolt but have just left it as it seems to be running fine. Max I've seen it get to is 76c in flight sim, not sure how toasty the memory gets....

Just watched your video and something similar happened to me a couple of weeks ago... 3070 Founders and just a vanilla 1080p AOC screen. I was browsing through my Gmail in chrome and noticed some odd rectangles flashing in the top 3rd of the screen, almost identical to the ones in your video...

You really need to get a second opinion on what's going on, I wonder if any forum members are close to you and could help out maybe? Another option is to buy a cheap as graphics card, say a GT710 for £45 and see if you can get the machine to boot with that. Worst case is you sell it on for £35...

If you can, I would try and take it somewhere else for a second opinion. Sounds like the place you got it from are trying to avoid any responsibility/cost..... Hope you can get it sorted.
