    ** NVIDIA RTX 30 SERIES (3090 / 3080 / 3070) NOW ONLINE AT OcUK **

    Imo it's lunacy to not wait to see what AMD's announcing at the end of October. Yes it's another 6 weeks but people seem to think it'll be at or around the performance of the 3080 and more power efficient, it just depends how they price it. Yes if it's crap it wouldn't be the first time they've...

    Gigabyte A520I AC - what am I missing?

    Buildzoid was similarly impressed with it. I was going to go for one of the B550 boards for an ITX APU system I have planned but I can't think of anything I'd need that this one doesn't provide. I also find it bizarre that every single one of Asus's A520 offerings (and there are 4 or 5) are...

    So where did all the RX 500 cards go?

    Sorry guys I have no idea how that happened and I have no idea why I'd have a link to an archived store page in my browser history! I bet the RX 470/480/570/580 were mostly going out the door in multiples of 6, certainly over the last couple of months.

    So where did all the RX 500 cards go?

    There's no listing on the store... Even if they're not in stock they don't disappear from the store pages...

    Sure, Joe. :) You mean more pics than are in the albums I linked to? Not questioning your eyesight, just making sure. ;)

    The Fury(X) Fiji Owners Thread

    re: drivers I just went up to the 15.11 beta, my Firestrike/Extreme/Ultra score went up to 20694/12928/7386 from 20655/12704/7229 so they must be doing something right.

    X99 Micro ATX

    The Asus X99-M WS if you can get hold of it.

    which X99 mATX motherboard to go for?

    I went from the X99 Deluxe to this board and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with the m.2 SSD. I originally had a bit of strife getting it to be recognised on the Deluxe but I plugged it into the port between the PCI-E slots on the micro and it recognised it and booted straight into...

    which X99 mATX motherboard to go for?

    I have the Asus X99-M WS and I love it. It's still very hard to get hold of, I think (although it says pre-order on the category view and 3 in stock on the actual product page - it's hella expensive though, I didn't pay anything near that price). It only has 4 RAM slots on it but you can get 16...

    The Asus X99 Deluxe Owners Thread

    For the record I had an official response from Asus about this. Clear as mud really. No mention of SLI or Crossfire but I'm assuming it's implied when they talk about installing two cards (not motherboards obviously).

    AMD Radeon R9 Nano coming next week

    Is it confirmed that the Nano doesn't have HDMI 2.0? The only evidence I've seen either way was a French article from June that said it would have it.

    3440 x 1440 gaming, upgrade advice from 290 ref?

    You should upgrade to 10 either way imo, even with your current card. I noticed improvements in Firestrike with my Fury X between Win 7 and Win 10, although I did do a clean install after upgrading so that probably contributed. W7 15.7 W7 15.7.1 W10 15.7.1 Fire...

    The Asus X99 Deluxe Owners Thread

    Because pump. :\ I'm literally out of options, I could put the card in 16_3 but I'd have to think of somewhere very creative to put the pump and it's physically not possible to have it anywhere else. I can't move it close enough to the PSU to give me space for the second GPU because the PSU...

    3440 x 1440 gaming, upgrade advice from 290 ref?

    I'm at 3440x1440 (same monitor) and I went for a Fury X but I put it in a custom loop so whining is never going to be an issue for me (apart from when all the Nvidia fanboys do it in the Fury X owners thread). It's a superb card, I still want another one in there with it though. This res is...

    The Asus X99 Deluxe Owners Thread

    I have no idea. Like I said, the only thing I can think of is XDMA needing the slots to be specifically wired for any particular configuration but I have precisely zero knowledge of how SLI and Crossfire work. I'd buy the second Fury X and test it myself but it's too much of a faff to do...

    The Asus X99 Deluxe Owners Thread

    That's what I thought. Every store page I've seen (and Asus's very own microsite for the card) says it supports x16/x16 for dual card configs. To me that means "you can use the first two 16-lane slots in SLI or Crossfire, both at x16". The thing that got me nervous was me casually looking...

    PSA: No you bloody well can't use 16_1 and 16_2 in 2-card crossfire. ****s sake.

    The Asus X99 Deluxe Owners Thread

    So I have a X99 Deluxe with a 5930k on it. I have a Fury X and I want another one but I've just seen something in the manual that has stopped me in my tracks. Apparently I can't use slots 16_1 and 16_2 together at x16? I can't use slot 16_3 because there's a watercooling pump in the way so it's...

    The Fury(X) Fiji Owners Thread

    Sooo what's happening to the RMA'd cards? Are they going back to the manufacturer for new pump fittings? I want another Fury X for my custom loop so I'm only interested in the card itself, not the AIO cooler...
