  1. Following; because I am having the same issues you are having more or less (Also have a 3080, and did the same fixes as you) One thing I can suggest (Someone on Reddit suggested) but im not at home and have not tried this yet) is installing older Nvidia drivers. He suggested start with installing 9/12/2023 version 537.34, test, if fails then uninstall and try next older version, repeat.
  2. Thanks for the help. There is no folder for "LiveKernalEvents" unfortunately, and windows says it cannot find when I put in "%localappdata%\CrashDump" into Run. There was a LiveKernalReports folder with some folders, but no files inside any of them.
  3. Build ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus (Wi-Fi) (BIOS ver 4802, latest) AMD 5800X G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 4000 (PC4 32000) Desktop Memory Model F4-4000C19D-32GTZR ASUS TUF 3080 (Connected GPU/Mobo with Lian Li Riser cable) ASUS ROG PSU 850W / Seasonic FOCUS GX-1000 Windows 10 (OS BUILD 19045.3448) SSD 850 EVO 500gb (Windows install, discord install) SSD WD 2tb blue (Games) Problem; All games seem to be frequently crashing/locking up while I am playing. No BSOD, just crashing to desktop. Escape From Tarkov mostly, but also Starfield and Baldurs Gate 3. Also Discord (My friends stream to one another while playing) will crash as well. It's been getting worse these last few months. Things I hate tried so far; Swapped PSU (From Asus ROG 850w to Seasonic Focus 1000w) Reseated my GPU and riser cable Reseated my memory Disabled XMP (Mem is at factory speed) Reduced power limit on GPU (Tried 60%, 80%, 100%) Ran Memtest (No errors found) Ran FurMark/Heaven Benchmark - No crashes/lockups Removed graphic drivers with DDU Reinstalled windows/games/drivers Uncertain of what else to try. I'm presuming GPU at this point - But FurMark/Heaven seem to have no problem with it.
  4. Wish you were in Winnipeg, I would buy it from you. Went in for a 5800x (Was maybe 20th person in line) and both 5900/5800 were sold out, only 5600x availiable. Signed up to be notified when the 5800x was back in stock.
  5. Has a better chance then what I ordered, I ordered a 4000mhz G skill kit.
  6. May want to look into the cheaper TUF x570-pro. That's what I've been eyeballing lately for when I get a 5900x. My thought process is it will still do some overclocking, maybe not to the same extremes as the higher end boards but the money saved on buying a cheaper board and going for the 5900x should be worth it. Now ram....that's where I'm stuck wondering what to get.
  7. I'm in abit of a struggle determining ram/mobo for the 5000 series. I do want to hit the 4000mz "Sweet spot". Either with factory 4000 or OC to 4000. I'm looking at either the TUF X570-PRO or a 570 STRIX/Crosshair. My problem with the QVL list right now from Asus is they only tested the TUF X570-PRO with a 2nd gen Ryzen, while the STRIX they used a Ryzen 4000. https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketAM4/TUF_GAMING_X570-PRO_WI-FI/Memory_QVL_2nd_Gen_AMD_Ryzen_Radeon_Vega_Graphics_CPU_X570.pdf https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/SocketAM4/ROG_STRIX_X570-E_GAMING/Memory_QVL_for_3rd_Gen_AMD_Ryzen_with_Radeon_Graphics_X570.pdf So there is only ONE listed RAM at 3400mhz listed on the TUF, while there is many many many listings of 4000+ on the Strix. Am I shooting myself in the foot buying 3600-3800 ram and hoping to OC it to 4000hmz using the Tuf board with w 5900x? (Or buying 4000hmz memory) in hopes any of it will work?
  8. I'm in the same boat. My suggestion is wait for the benchmarks/reviews to hit (Which should be soon, can't see embargo date being the same as release date). Keep in mind you can likely get 3600-3800mz ram and OC it to the sweet spot. That is likely what I will be doing.
  9. I'm currently planning to buy a Ryzen 5900x when released, I will also likely be buying a Asus TUF X570-PRO at the same time. This is a new build replacing my aging intel skylake system. AFAIK this TUF board does not have a bios-flashback option and I do not currently own a Ryzen CPU that could post the board to update the bios. From my understanding all b550/x570 boards will require a bios update of agesa 1.0.8.0 in order to post Ryzen 5000. I believe it was MSI who indicated all of their boards manufactured after August (Correct me if I am wrong) will ship with that update. Does anyone know which manufacture date for Asus will have this update? I'd prefer not being put into a situation where I cannot post my new system when buying these new components. I reached out to Asus Chat Support who either did not know what I was talking about or were truthful in saying there has been no official information and referred me to Asus Store Support (I was in chat with the pre-sale department, however all chat links for what I need go back there..)
  10. Hey guys, I've been slowly piecing together a new build for myself to replace my aging setup. I've never really fiddled with memory too much in the past, mostly just set it and forget it. However, I feel it's time to make things abit better for myself. I'm looking to get 4000mhz memory, as early indications say Ryzen 5000 has the "sweet spot" with that speed. The problem i'm running into is determining how I can put 32gb of it in my system. Using ASUS QVL list on current motherboards - The list for 4000mhz+ memory seems to be a maximum of 16gb using 8gb modules. It doesn't seem many if any of the asus line up support using 4 dimms with memory of that speed. Am I missing something, or are people using faster ram like this not running any more then 16gb? Or is the QVL list not the be-all-end all? tl;dr, I need a ram suggestion of 32gb 4000mhz+ that will work with Ryzen 5 5900x and a motherboard that will allow it. I do plan on using asus's announced but not yet available boards if possible. Thanks!
  11. Just trying to figure out the best place to be looking to try and snag a 3080 on launch date in Canada. I contacted my local Memory Express and they indicated... So aside from them, and a hope/prayer I can get one from NewEgg Canada - Is there anywhere else that I might be able to get one? ...Finally time to retire the 980ti i've had since launch!
  12. Source http://wccftech.com/nvidia-volta-tesla-v100-ai-research/ Lots more information in the article. Also, what I find interesting is last year in April when Pascal was announced at GTC it was already shipping to non-consumer places - Then by May it was shipping the consumer version. Does this mean we may have consumer Volta later this year? (Sept/Oct?)
  13. It's just too bad Alphacool's quality control is complete trash.
  14. It probably has something to do with... They have some sort of voodoo going on to make it work...
  15. Eh, you can't get the same colors in tubing as you can when you mix your own pastel color. Also if you want to change colors, you have to rebuild your loop. Not a fan.
  16. Thats really cool. So theoretically speaking - those "mineral oil" pc's - You could use this fluid? Also in terms of other sectors - Could this be used as a "safe" way to extinguish electronics that were on fire? (Like for instance when Linus's server room goes up in flames )
  17. Another thing to try is to get a flow meter and measure that. If you still have a high flow rate - yet temperatures are this high - It must be the contact points on the blocks. I suppose we can't rule out a "bad" pump either - From my experience they either work or they don't. I don't think it's very common to have a semi-working pump. You should be able to hear an audible difference between the pump speeds - Give it a listen. If it sounds the same at the low and high levels - something is not functioning right.
  18. I'm happy you stopped by Mick, thanks for giving out some more information - Looking forward to trying this out. Graphene is such an amazing material with so much potential - I'm always following energy related graphene news (Batteries, solar panels, etc), it never even occurred to me that it could be (In simple terms) "mixed" with water to aid in heat dissipation. It's really cool that you guys utilizing this new technology.
  19. The problem i'm having with wanting to cite that is they mention nothing regarding using graphene - The only mention something regarding heat removal, which could have been from early Pastel / Aurora mixes. Since their partnership goes back a long way, it really could be referring to a lot of things as they even mention helping them with their soft tubing. Further more since the product has not been released, I find it hard to believe CPI would post information publicly about what they are working on, until it has been released.
  20. What speed is the pump on? The D5's are the "go to" pump currently - A single GPU and CPU with your rads - I would be blown away if a D5 could not handle that. They have 1500 L/HR flow rate and 3.7M head pressure at 12V. There are plenty of people out their using SLI + CPU with D5's
  21. True enough - Although I find Mayhems really does their RND well - I follow them a lot on OCN and have to say, they are very communicative with the community and go leaps and bounds (at least publicly) with results they find working with different products on theirs. I'm hoping Luke comes across this - I know he's quite keen (Myself as well) on Graphene technology.
  22. Need more information to help you - You never mentioned where you live or what temperatures it reaches at the low points. Radiators are generally made from copper/brass and painted. I'd worry more about long term exposure to rain rusting/corroding them unless you shield them. Depending how cold it gets, i'd worry about plastic fans becoming very brittle and breaking if they freeze. Coolant, if you use an anti-freeze mix I wouldn't worry. The big worry here is condensation IMO. How you would solve that, I do not know.
  23. Thats a D5 pump from EK right? That should be sufficient for a gpu/cpu blocks and 480+360 rad. I also believe that pump is controlled via PWM - Have you set a curve to it? Try switching it manually to the highest level and compare results. Aside from that all I can think of is maybe your blocks are not in full contact, maybe try re-doing them with new paste. Edit: Looking at your bends - It could very well be that. Look at the bend going into the top of your GPU...it doesn't look "a bit kinked" - It looks nearly flattened!
  24. From OverClock.Net forum in the Mayhems thread. Update: Mick from Mayhems posted this below, updating original post to reflect new information.
  25. Without question, Jon. Appears to be a highly intelligent guy interested in a lot of things that I find interesting. It's great when he appears on WAN show.
