42" too damned big D:

All Arctic PWM PST fans, the AIO fans serve as the intake too, pulling cold air through the rad.
In terms of fan speeds, I've got it set up in the BIOS to step up gradually as the CPU temp reaches 60 degrees. At 80 degrees it is ramped up to around 75% if I recall for all case fans inc the AIO. All other times the fans are running at a flat 24% or so which equates to the above RPMs.
. Is that the 240mm AIO or the 280? You've got a very nice setup there and nice slow and silent fan speeds. Your 3080TI's hotspot is much closer to the core temp than on my 3080 FE 10GB (the delta on mine is 11-12 C) and your memory junction is significantly lower. Have you done any mods?
.I have gone back to 144hz anyway, there is very few games I can get more than 100 fps, let alone locked to 144 with a 3080 at this res. so bit pointless using 175hz mode, maybe if/when a gpu can provide that, I'll go with 175hz then.....
Noticing with the extra clarity from no matte finish little things that are annoying me in games now like dying light 2, the rain drops/steam on my screen
This has to be one of my favourite scenes in cp 2077, regardless of oled, just the setting, the lighting, the character and the tone set, looks absolutely gorgeous with the hdr, looks a bit low res. as I'm using dlls perf. for the max RT goodness:
Borderlands 3 HDR looks glorious:
My 5 and 10% grey slides, camera over exposes these big time and picks up on things you can't see with your eyes but leagues ahead of lg oleds, just have a look in the c2 42" thread to see the uniformity and banding issues still somewhat plaguing them (panel refresh thing does help though):
For comparison, my LG e7 and c7 back when I first got them:
This was before the panel refresh ran:
Which wasn't noticeable in most content but certain scenes, when panning, you could easily see it, particularly with sky shots, my e7 was very good after a couple of refreshes though so not really that noticeable:
Think this was the c7:
Can't say I notice the aw issues with my own eyes, uniformity etc. looks perfect. Not ran a panel refresh yet but it would probably clear up any issues that are there, might do one tonight just before bed.

Enjoy the monitor, I'm glad the replacement is living up to expectations. OLED is really so much better in every way (except for peak brightness vs the best LCDs). I found that when I got my C1, but the Alienware is even better
Been tempted by them AIO artic coolers but always fear they will leak
Genuine lol!
That the NAD D3045 I (almost) see?
What gave away the Gamers Nexus hint btw?
.Bahahahahahahahaha!
Agreed. Only saw 175fps in older games like Deus Ex Human Revolution which I wanted to try out. That game was unplayable on 4K as the hud was not resizable and everything was super tiny and obviously playing at non native resolution was not ideal. Looks nice ultrawide now tooI have gone back to 144hz anyway, there is very few games I can get more than 100 fps, let alone locked to 144 with a 3080 at this res. so bit pointless using 175hz mode, maybe if/when a gpu can provide that, I'll go with 175hz then.....

It was amusing as I posted a pic of the Alderlake build on some other communities at the time since 12th gen was all fancy and new etc so nice to share experience/pics and stuff. There were always that handful of people who watched Tech Jesus' video and only saw and heard what they wanted to and didn't watch any further and were saying "OMG YOUR AIO PUMP IS GONNA DIE WITH PIPES AT BOTTOMThe AIO tubes being at the bottom of the case when the AIO is front mounted
This Arctic AIOs are fantastic: great value for money, silent and cool fantastically well. They are probably the best you can buy at the moment.
".
By the way I took a pic of the pixel orbit range, kinda cool, never had a monitor or screen with this kind of feature really.
