  1. Yeah, so... I'm dumb and didn't realize how much difference having extra monitors connected made, even with nothing running on them. The 3070 was a single 1080p monitor. The 3070 Ti had a 1440p and ultrawide connected. Disconnected the ultrawide and ran TimeSpy again, got 13500, right in line with the average on 3dmark.
  2. Mostly 1 and 5 when under load with a few 13s.
  3. W10 21H1, Perf cap is power limited when running graphics tests. Consistenly getting ~1500 points below 3070Ti average in TimeSpy.
  4. I bumped it up to 103% on the Ti, has high as it will go. It's not just low vs the 3070 though, it looks like it's very low compared to other 3070Ti's too. I used DDU remove drivers and then used latest from Nvidia. I'm using a daisy chain, but that was the case with the 3070 too. I'll test with separate cables to see if that makes a difference, but it looks like it's only drawing ~225W under load.
  5. I got an EVGA 3070 Ti XC3 yesterday, and was running 3Dmark benchmarks on it today. I'm getting very low graphics scores, lower than a 3070 I tested a few months ago. Tried OCing a bit, but it looks like it's hitting power limit first. Not really sure what's going on. Comparison of the 3070 FTW3 vs the 3070Ti I have now: https://www.3dmark.com/compare/spy/17184398/spy/23212365
  6. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/products/10series/star-wars-titan-xp-collectors-edition/ Red 'Galactic Empire' and green 'Jedi Order' Titan Xp graphics cards for $1200, on sale November 8th, 6am PST.
  7. Going to be pretty difficult to find something that thin with upgradable components. Spectre x360/XPS 13 have soldered ram. The Zenbooks however do have upgradable ram. Thought, most of the barebones laptops I've seen are gaming/workstation laptops.
  8. An 2nd/3rd gen used business laptop like an i5 Elitebook/Latitude/Thinkpad with a decent screen can be had for ~$100 or with a quad core i7 for $50-75 more. Highly worth it imo. Those things are tanks and highly upgradable.
  9. Lenovo Thinkstations are also pretty good. I picked up a Thinkstation with a Sandy Bridge 4c/8t xeon and 8gb of ram for $120 about a year ago.
  10. Except they aren't even that good for mining. $599 for a Vega 64, which is getting about MH/s. I was getting 26 MH/s stock and about 31 MH/s on my OC'ed 290 before I sold it. The GTX 1070, Vega 56, and Polaris based cards all get similar hasrates, while costing significantly less and (with Nvidia cards) being more efficient.
  11. Which they really aren’t that good at, especially when looking at MH/watt
  12. Gamers Nexus has confirmed via AIB partners that the $500 launch price of Vega 64 was due to a $100 rebate offered to retailers, which is already expiring. New price will be $599, unclear if Vega 56 will be released the same way. http://www.gamersnexus.net/news-pc/3023-aib-partners-to-gn-yes-vega-price-will-change
  13. I tried cancelling the first order and trying it again. Still the same problem, but I haven't gotten a refund from the first order either.
  14. Same thing is happening for me. PayPal has deducted the $2.99 from my bank, but I don't have access to it.
