It's a vibration dampening brace! The times of using those little rubber squares are long gone.
Don't you mean the pads used to stop the PSU from shorting on the case?

If he had 2 he could prob connect these to the FEDon't you mean the pads used to stop the PSU from shorting on the case?
Hey Zeed, it matches your hair and outfits.@Ace Modder that's an interesting watercooling hose You got there on second photo
indeed fashion itemHey Zeed, it matches your hair and outfits.
They cut costs on the power delivery so it doesn't have the same power limits as the FE at default?
No... I've got this card in release day from a competitor, initially that's what was thought but you cant take the power delivery slider up to a massive 105% lol but then is slightly faster than FE, And what's more impressive and surprised me is a friend suggested to me to try the new Nvidia metrics and OC tuner built into the new geforce experience and it's tuned my Zotac +90mhz, That new software from from Nvidia is great, it finds the best voltage curve as it's testing the overclock and it's working, not had a single crash in SOTTR

Would love to see results of this.Have you tried a custom fan curve to keep the card under 73 degrees heat? As I read it starts to throttle at 73 degrees, but with a better fan curve, they found the card would boost much higher...

Yes at around 70% curve it's in the mid 60s, put it this way it's easy to get under 70, Max temp with this card vysnc off is 75c SOTTR, it has got good cooler potential for sure.
What kind of boost are you getting with the temps in the mid 60s?
So a more aggressive fan curve and 105% power limit brings it inline with the FE? Obviously you have nothing left then to match an OC'd FE. You'd have to laugh if the power limit gets increased and the Zotac turns out to be the best overclocker.
Well technically no because I've had a +95 and +94 MHz increase with Nvidias built in tuner but can't remember if that was with the results I posted will check again.
If possible, how about a couple of benchmarks heaven etc, at stock with standard fan curve and perhaps with the OC and the custom fan curve?
