The thing with those enermax are that they are multi rail 12v, instead of single rail 12v like your seasonic. If two of your pcie power cables were plugged into the same rail I could see it hitting the limits of that rail with something as beefy as a 6900xt or 3090.

Yep all four of my g pros double clicked eventually. No issues since I stopped using logitech. Razer switched to optical switches for this reason.

Maybe a 360hz monitor like the PG259QN?

Since you are using an 11900k, with 11th gen there is noticeable performance degradation if you're just doing XMP on your kit since it'll set gear 2 for 4000mhz. This sets your memory controller at 1000mhz only. Gear 1 100:133 3733mhz will be considerably faster and you should be able to lower timings a bit more at the lower clock. This sets your memory controller at 1866mhz.

For gaming it is basically the same as the 1080 ti, just look at benchmarks for that.

Seems like a common issue according to the top review of that keyboard on amazon. It is a hot swap keyboard and they were able to fix it by replacing the switch.

Silicon varies but so does the program you're stress testing the undervolt with. For example in something old like heaven (what optimum tech tested with) I could do 1920mhz on 0.85v and be "stable" all day. But in a game that maxes out the rtx cores like metro exodus I had to dial it all the way down to 1800mhz on 0.825v.

That's normal, they all have that.

Are you forcing the pci-e to 4.0 only? The rtx 2070 doesn't support pci-e 4.0.

Doesn't matter, you don't need cables that are single connectors. Only difference would be that it'll look more tidy without extra connectors hanging off.

It'll probably turn on and work but reviews say that power supply is pretty bad, so I would personally upgrade it if possible.

You don't have to do any of that, all you need to do is enable the XMP profile if you're using intel. If you're using amd they should have a similar equivalent.

It's actually even faster than that, it's 14,000mhz effective since it's GDDR. GDDR6X can even clock to 22,000mhz. Your issues aren't due to the memory clock.

The thermal paste looks fine. If you're using the stock cooler that came with it then those temperatures are fine, it's just not that great but it's fine. If you want it cooler or quieter you could upgrade to a new cooler.

Yes.

Looking at reviews for that model, it looks like yes gigabyte's cooling is just that shit on that card. 80c is fine but if it's too loud, you can look into lowering the power limit % (might decrease performance) or undervolting (performance boost if done right). I wouldn't put on an aftermarket cooler, it's a lot of hassle. You may as well buy a new card at that point.

Ah that sucks, kind of good news is it doesn't really need it though I guess I actually managed to pick up a 3090 FE haha, the old titan served me well for over 4 years.

Ya I see your problem now, mine spins for a second when I press the power button. If yours doesn't then your fan is might be broken.

I have one, these PSUs actually don't turn on the fan until like near the peak rating, they're basically passive. Source: http://www.jonnyguru.com/blog/2016/08/15/seasonic-prime-750-titanium-power-supply/3/

There is no solution, your laptop's cooling is just not good enough to keep it at max boost all the time. Even if the cooling were good enough, it would still downclock because it's hitting the 45w tdp limit. That's just how laptop cpus are.

It's "throttling" because it's hitting the thermal and power limits. It's not going to stay at max boost if it's exceeding temps or the 45w tdp, and it says you're almost hitting 100c, max load benchmarks will surely exceed 45w too. Anything above the base frequency of 2.2ghz is considered boosting for that processor.

It's not even ultrawide, it's the same 16:9 as any other monitor.

Look at the vcore not VID. It says 1.38v max which is fine as long as your temps are good.

Like they said 6 threads just isn't enough in modern games especially at 1080p 144hz. Especially in the coming years now that consoles are 16 threads. For older games it's great. The lower your resolution the more intensive it is on your GPU, so going to 1440p60hz would take load off of your CPU which is why they said that. But, being at 80-90% usage is perfectly fine as long as you're getting acceptable frames and no stuttering. If you're not comfortable with that then there's no real solution other than to upgrade, your motherboard likely fits a 9900k. Or ryzen cpus have 12+ threads for cheap.

It's likely 4.4ghz, considering the 9700K's is 4.6ghz.
