    funny you say that, as the founders cards are not reference PCBs...
  2. magic
    Hi Guys, Is anyone aware of a database of which 3090s will use what PCB type? i ask because I would like to grab a waterblock day 1. EKWB has a block but only for Reference PCBs. Now the question is, what is a reference PCB? This card has a PCB that extends roughly 1-2cm above the PCIE bracket - is this non-reference? compatible with EKWB? https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus-geforce-rtx-3090-rog-strix-gaming-oc-24gb-gddr6x-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-44j-as.html This GPU has a PCB that aligns to the PCIE bracket. Is this Reference? compatible with EKWB? https://www.overclockers.co.uk/msi-geforce-rtx-3090-ventus-3x-oc-24gb-gddr6x-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-36a-ms.html And finally, we have the Founders 3090, which appears to have the 1-2cm extension Curious what you guys are thinking! https://www.overclockers.co.uk/pc-components/graphics-cards/nvidia/geforce-rtx-3090 check out the variants here. Also curious if the ASUS cards with their extra port will be compatible with majority of blocks. I'm thinking not... but then again, its just an upward extension. Maybe? I love new tech.

    no problemo, if you ever decide you want more perf repaste it, 2080ti scales real well with OC

    the clock speed jump will be because its hitting the 88c wall and trying to stick there, undervolt works too!
  5. magic
    Use GPU-Z and hit the "lookup" button on there to take you directly to a page all about your specific GPU and its clocks

    Userbenchmark honestly sucks donkey doo doo... they hail as if their results are the be all end all, when they do not represent real world, and weight their results to seemingly favour certain products or arch what 2080ti are they comparing to there? the 2080ti that is 200% the performance level of a stock 2080ti? or the one that's 83? average? https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/32961512 direct link to benchmark

    what a steal getting a 2080ti for free hahaha! I'd recommend installing afterburner and having a play with those temp limits, you might even be able to get a nice OC out of it by adjusting fan curve and using OC Scanner (ctrl+f on afterburner main page)

    turing cards temp limit is 88, it'll keep clocking up as long as you have not hit PWR limit or Thermal limit, in this case you hit thermal limit it's not overheating, not a problem, you won't cause any damage. Your gpu will manage clocks to stay under 88c - if you want proof, force fan low like 25% and watch it clock down hard. Set fan curve if you care to! if you want to force it to run cooler, lower the temp limit to a temp you are comfortable with - but honestly its not worth it - its not a problem Repasting might get you 5c if you're lucky, but again, it'll clock up and hit 88c again

    42 is nothing.

    VR is no doubt about to get very popular with the advent of HL:Alyx and all the games/mods that will spawn with Source 2 SDK. (Not to mention this is only 1 of their 3 promised flagship VR games) I think it's worth having a section for: VR - General VR - Hardware nested under general and VR - Games/Software nested under general What do you think? I know I'd like to discuss it here at LTT :) I'd also like to help people out with budget VR setups that aren't shit!!!! (for those in the UK, look at CEX for used Windows MR headsets, or used Oculus CV1s, no joke they're cheap as fuck! and work so well. Windows MR tracking got massively improved since it was first released. I use a Lenovo Explorer myself)

    this could seriously do with re-doing, with Ryzen 3000 included... the performance you get for the money now changes everything!

    Does anyone know when the broadwell cpus are actually going to be released? I went with a Z97/Pentium G3258 build to wait for this as my upgrade path from AMD and its kind of annoying how intel said broadwell will be release any time since november - yet nowhere has it in their stores and the only place that does says it's been overdue for ages. I know of the 4790K being same perf etc, but I still want latest and greatest. After all 5775c is 3ghz while 4790k 4ghz and performs the same, if it oc it should be decent. What's the deal anyway? Wheres it at intel??
  13. magic
    Fractal Define R5 maybe?
  14. magic
    for 1080p60 yes
  15. magic
    no place like 127.0.0.1
  16. magic
    Aaaand he got DDOS'd... This is why we can't have nice things. On naother note, trigger z or quickfire ultimate? [MX brown] same price and I really don't care for the macros

    Yes I have the original release model, no longer made, that uses the painful metal clips like these: http://assets.overclock.net.s3.amazonaws.com/c/cf/cf5acace_vbattach134207.jpeg http://www.coolermaster.com/uploadfile/fileproduct_list/P1302180294bfd6/PRDPIC/967f6995d92b3cfdfb494aa9a6c3042c_1361408584.jpg http://imagescdn.tweaktown.com/content/2/9/2904_99.png http://imagescdn.tweaktown.com/content/2/9/2904_13.jpg europe:) thanks for looking though, I'll ask the support team

    Where do I go to find Hyper 212 EVO fan clips? I have a hyper 212 plus where I've lost the metal clips (that never worked properly for me albeit) and want to use plastic ones from the 212 evo. My friend has the evo and from my testing it works on my 212+ heatsink(it's exactly the same as the evo) Any know where to buy the EVO clips in the UK?
  19. magic
    It's only temp, it'll be replaced next week

    got my daily I think! 4.4GHz at 1,25V gives me 87C under IBT Still nice to know my CPU isn't a dud just a bios bug somewhere Thanks for the help guys
  21. magic
    is that like AMD Overdrive? I'll have a look now
  22. magic
    Gigabyte set volts for 4.2 to 1.16V and 4.6 to 1.35V, both of which I've tried and seize at login (which is why I'm finding this weird)
  23. magic
    So, news! I ran Gigabyte EasyTune aaand It fucking overclocked to 4.2 straight away I feel beaten by a program, what am I doing wrong? Bios bug? I clicked on 4.6 just to see if it'd work... Yep. Worked. Booted. Stable (temps not so much, immediate 95c on IBT!) Is there a bug or settings I'm missing? I feel legit beaten by a bot.
  24. magic
    I have some AS5 I can use to apply, I don't think it's temps causing this issue though and seeing as I'm getting the CM heatsink soon IDK if it'd be worth Running gigabyte autotuning stuff seeing how that goes, if it fails will drop to 1 stick and go again Ty for the help http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cooler-Master-Hyper-412s-Tower/dp/B00634R3L6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1411765209&sr=8-1&keywords=Hyper+412S Good looking imo, the copper pipes on 212 put me off lol
  25. magic
    Lucky you Any other ideas guys? I've got all night to get this working... All my ideas are exhausted, I can only think either dud CPU or poor PSU. I will try take out the non matching ram now see how that goes...
