    No they are not all gel filled. Your best bet is to research a company that sells this type cable and there are many. As stated by the op make sure it’s solid copper, gauge size is also important. What ever you do Don't get the cheapest cable out there. Buy the best and do it once.

    As long as it is outdoor rated you can run it exposed along the wall and in some cases if allowed direct burial. Ideally though I usually recommend to use PVC conduit if you do plan to run anything underground. Just note that a lot of exterior grade cable is CCA (copper clad aluminum) while cost effective you want to try and get solid copper if possible.

    You should be fine. The cold doesn't really affect cables unless you're constantly bending them. UV light will do far more damage over time, so if I were you, I'd try to put it in the shadow somewhere. (Or underground... that works too.) 
     
    EDIT: For the record I've never seen ethernet cables that WEREN'T solid copper.

    Thanks guys. I think it worked with the mediatool. I was getting worried that it might be something else so I wanted to call on the wisdom of the LTT.
     
    You guys are awesome !

    nvidia and amd both sell many of each GPU they make, and most games sell just as many copies..
     
    and with the world of the internet, everyone is suddenly a reviewer, so chances are very good that someone somewhere has the exact combination you're looking for, and all you need to do is find that person.

    trough my almost 3 years at LTT forums i've actually bumped into a few people with almost the exact same setup as me, one of them coming creepily close to identical.

    My old RX480 used to handly 2560x1080 really well.  I think that the 1060 would be fine for now, but if you're looking for something that will hold up for a bit longer the 1070 is probably a good call.

    It's doable just be sure to mask off the area and mark your cut lines, you can use a rotary tool with abrasive cutting discs.
     
    I have a guide here if your interested, under Window Mod:

    the 1060 is definitely capable, but you can get the 1070 to have some peace of mind.

    GTX 1070
     
    The 1060 was made especially for current games on high-ultra settings at 1920x1080. Anything higher and a GTX 1070 is a significant step up.

    i had the same problem. the problem is rtss not msi ab, so just close msi then launch witcher, then tab out and launch msi.
    or you could uninstall rtss, but that would remove the osd

    I'd increase the power limit to max . the card won't draw more than it needs ( it's a maximum ) , and it ensures your card isn't starved for power.
    1205mhz seems high for a 280x ( that's usually the upper limit ) . Drop down to 1150 and go increase from there.
     
    Also , set your memory to stock for now . You first want to find your max core speed , and tweak memory clocks after . If you do both at the same time and run into instability , you won't know what is causing it .

    You just went too high on your overclock, there is nothing wrong with your gpu, you just went a little too high, just go a little lower on your overclock till they go away and then you should be fine.

    The artefacts are just the results of improperly rendering the frame afaik. Meaning some of the stream processors (or any other part of the GPU for that matter) cannot properly work, so it creates those glitches. Too fast of a clock or too little voltage can lead to that.

    You cannot kill a GPU with an overclock like that. You need to get to ridiculous levels of voltage for that to happen. 
     
    @RiqSha Lower your clocks just a little and test again, and raise power limit to 20%.

    you can actually just create a profile inside rtss for witcher 3 and disable it there
