As expected a clean install did not resolve the problem. Requesting a new riser cable from Phanteks. May start the RMA on the 2080ti.

Yep, for sure.

Only bare minimums plugged in. I haven't tried a full reset of windows yet but that'll probably be next.

New custom water cooled build Ryzen 2700x / 2080ti that I ran air cooled fine for a couple weeks, and ran fine for a few days after liquid cooling (after tracking down some issues stemming from PSU). Today, within a couple minutes of playing PUBG the screen goes black and the monitor says that it's going to sleep, so it lost connection to the GPU. However, noises still play through my headphones and the discord call even continues. I have run Aida64+Furmark for an hour with no issue. I have played Battlefield V for an hour without issue. I've fully uninstalled and reinstalled multiple versions of the driver Updated my BIOS Uninstalled and reinstalled PUBG Monitored temps (all within reason) Reset everything possible to reset back to factory. Reseated the riser cable going from the motherboard to the GPU. The issue itself feels very hardware related to me, I'm an experienced technician but am at my witts end looking for outside opinion. Bonus glamor pics of the new build.

yep, dead psu

What matters more than your PSU size is what hardware you actually have in your system (or if you happen to know off the top of your head how many watts your system draws). You are probably not drawing anywhere near 650w if you have a normal gaming computer, certainly not under normal usage scenarios. TLDR; 630w UPS is almost certainly big enough for your needs.

No. I did confirm that there must be SOME contact and SOME cooling taking place though. I unplugged the pump all together while it was idling and the temperature did start to creep up and it went back down once it was plugged in.

So I installed the Kraken G12 with a corsair H105 onto my ASUS Turbo 1080ti. It idles right at about 32c but as soon as there is any load it goes straight to 80+C and thermal throttles hard. I've verified that the pump is running and everything else is wired up good. I reseated the cooler being extra careful to get it tightened evenly. It visually looks like the block is making contact with the die. Same thing. So finally I tried using a little copper shim between the cooler and the GPU. Same results. I'm not usually one to need to ask for help but I'm just straight out of ideas. EDIT: I'm using Arctic silver V thermal paste with each application.

Uhhh I'm aware of that discount and it was a 1.5% discount, not 15%.

I am so freaking glad I got it when I did

Paging isn't done at a program level. It is a process of the operating system. A program wont just not run because you don't have paging on.

This is some of the most hilarious bs i've heard on here

Yes. MSI X99S Gaming 7 with a Xeon. Deal going on for 16gb G.SKILL dimms, was planning on doing 64GB anyway for virtual machines. Seemed like a good idea at the time...

So I may have gone insane and ordered 128gb or ram for my computer. We can leave my decision making skills and chrome tab jokes for another time. Knowing windows, it's going to make my page file at least the size of my ram (prob higher). My PC is completely SSD Based (2x240gb RAID 0). I can't think of any reason not to disable my page file all together as I will never under any circumstances use more than a fraction of the 128gb of ram. So my question is, can anyone think of any reason to leave the page file enabled at all?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231965 This memory is on sale for $99.99 and has a promo code for 10% off that (PAXMEM10). The promo code lasts until 5/5 but the memory likely wont be on sale for $99.99 that long. Greatest deal i've ever seen on 16gb Dimms and maybe the best GB/dollar DDR4 i've ever seen. Only 2133 mhz but as Linus has shown, not really important. Plus, Xeon chips seem to play nice with 2133. This is a great deal for the mini-itx builders out there that only have 2 slots and want 32gb. Personally I have 4 kits ordered and I'm going to max out my X99 board at 128gb (With my Xeon. X99 i7 CPUs max out at 64gb)

I absolutely love my K65 RGB and that is the best price I've ever seen for one.

I've had one of the G4 servers and their not even worth turning on unless your just looking for a space heater. They are insanely loud, hot, and extremely underpowered. You could outperform it with an entry level desktop CPU.

As long as its in a pretty well ventilated area, open it up and pull half of the hot swap fans that are cooling the hard drive bays. As long as you are leaving the ones directly cooling the CPUs and its in a pretty well ventilated area you will be fine without some of them.

It all depends on what their keeping for logs and if they even know how to access them but ultimately the answer is yes, they can absolutely see everything you do on the internet while connected to the VPN if they really wanted.

That link does not lead to a GTX 980....
