  1. You're going to have to inspect any of the compontents that had items mounted on them that due to inertia could have bent something. That includes: -GPU heatsink -PCI-E slot because of the GPU. -CPU heatsink -Harddisks I'd buy some thermal paste and start with remounting everything.
  2. 580 is generally better performance at the cost of increased power consumption. If you care a great deal about power consumption, have heat constraints (small case, little airflow), low a limited power supply (<500), go 1060. Otherwise the 580 is generally the better option. Fractal Core 500 is better. Fite me.
  3. Was the system on when it was dropped? And are the games you're testing installed on the HDD? Because that is the most likely suspect to not have fully survived the fall.
  4. Increasing resolution doesn't increase CPU load. In fact, in most cases it decreases it because the GPU is able to generate less frames per second. Is that the cheapest GPU with that support? Because i'd go for the cheapest.
  5. Ill get back at you tomorrow, I'm going to bed now. However, my system is using a 2600X also but i'm under heavy thermal constraints in a ITX system. So I tried my best to get the voltage as low as possible without influencing boost. I get about 4-4.05ghz boost with a 92mm ITX cooler. You should atleast be able to drop it to about 1.28-1,3V. Unless you really want to hit 4.2ghz.
  6. That board has a lot of "boost" features that raise voltage a lot. You should disable the PBO and multicore enhancements etc.
  7. It depends on the situation, watch the video. Additionally, what the video doesn't explain, try increasing GPU features AA to increase GPU load. No point in not using the excess GPU capability.
  8. It's not an exclusively AMD thing only. It depends on the situation. For all you know he's running low settings, even Intel's at some point reach their max fps.
  9. Have you checked the voltages during load? Could be that the mainboard had some sort of a weird reset and MCE is back on. Wouldn't be the first time we've seen mainboards pull 1.4V+ on chips.
  10. Mate, even the least informed on this website know that increasing resolution lessens the strain on the CPU because you generally get lower framerates due to GPU constraints. How can you have 3.3k posts and not know this.

  12. It will, but it's at a cost of running the CPU at high temperatures. If you're worried about performance, you can also manually set a multiplier using the stock voltage instead.
  13. Better off using the stock voltage so it also undervolts when it's running lower clocks. MCE is multi-core enchancement. It's named something else on every board, look for something similar.
  14. 1.43 seems excessive. It's probably running those performance enhancing bios features like MCE etc that are ramping up voltage, try disabling those.
  15. That's because most reviewers are retards and test aircoolers on non-delidded Intel chips that hit the same temperature with just about any heatsink, because most of the heat is trapped between the lid. Find one that test with a load resistor setup. Speaking of which, check the voltages.
  16. You switched the left/right I take it? Because it's the RIGHT one that has the weird lines. Anyway, check Nvidia control panel and look if it's running full-range and the max. allowable bitrate. Though, you can't really expect great gradients on a 6bit+FRC panel.
  17. Yeah the support for that program has mostly stopped. Newer sensor chips are no longer detected. You need to switch to Argus Monitor.
  18. When the CPU becomes the bottleneck you'll always encounter poor frametime consistency and framedrops due to the renderthread overflowing. And you did not do yourself a favor by going with single-channel 2400mhz memory on a Ryzen chips. Notorious for requiring decent memory to run close to the intel competition. Neither are they champions of running very high framerates due to their design. Though I feel like running 1080p at this time and age is doing yourself a disservice. So you're going to have to settle for lower, yet stable framerates. You can do this by increasing graphical settings that increase load on the GPU, and lower those that have an impact on CPU, and in your case also lower texture settings as you don't have excess memory or bandwidth. So I suggest lowering features like: Model Detail, Draw Distance, Geometry Detail, Textures And increasing things like Resolution (use a resolution scale if you're running 1080p monitor), MSAA, Lighting/shadows, Tessellation, or anything pixelshader related. Then when you've got a nice balance but have the occasional hitch because you're CPU is not able to keep up with the GPU, use RTSS (part of MSI Afterburner, it's the Statistics server) to set a framecap that is low enough as to maintain a stable framerate. Start by setting it to 100-110 and lower it incrementally until you hit a framerate it can viable hit 99% of the time. I see no glaring issues with the system, nothing is throttling, I do see some fileswapping from memory to disk, so as I said, be mindful of texture settings. If your CPU is bottlenecking and the GPU load as a result drops, so does it's power. You're seeing a correlation, but it's not the causal factor. EDIT: also, I say bottleneck but don't take this the wrong way. There is always a bottleneck, that word does not imply it's a bad system or a bad part that is being said bottleneck, as it is mostly used on this website as such. I just mean to say that it's predominantly determining performance. If a system had no bottlenecks it would have infinite performance.
  19. Is this a question? Yes you can polish it with some commandant 5 or something. It's what I used.
  20. Check my topic. https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/894384-i-have-the-stutters-how-to-provide-detailed-information-with-your-question-as-well-as-a-few-solutions/
  21. I just ghetto modded the EVGA 1080. Can just 800rpm them and stay sub 60 degrees, albeit with an undervolt (.925v)
  22. Nah, I think I only paid a third of that. 2x NF-F12, 1x NF-A14, and 2x NF-A9x14's for the GTX 1080 ghetto mod. Especially the ghetto mod did wonders, AIB fan designs are shit compared to noctua's efficiency.
  23. Meh, doesn't seem that impressive. You can get along way by just choosing a good ITX case that has lots of ventilation undervolting CPU and GPU putting in noctua fans And most importantly, setup your own custom fanprofile using sophisticated utilities as Argus or Speedfan Though as noted in the video, once you reach that inaudible level, coilwhine takes over.
