    Sennheiser 58X Jubilee Mic

    in Audio

    Posted

    Hey everyone,

     

    I just picked up a pair of Sennheiser 58X Jubilee and am super excited!  What I am now wondering is what everyone suggest for a mic.  I know a lot of people suggest the Antlion Mod Mic, but does anyone have experience with any other?

     

    Thanks!

    Thermaltake Riing 12 LED issue

    in Cooling

    Posted

    Hey everyone,

     

    I bought some Thermaltake Riing 12 LED fans a while ago (link to fans below).  I was able to set them to a color that I wanted and when I powered the PC off and back on the color would come back, they are plugged into the controller and the controller is plugged into a fan header.  I have recently purchased 2 RGB strips that plug directly into the RGB header on my motherboard and they connect together by a 3 pin connector.  Ever since I bought the RGB strips my Riing fans no longer keep the color I set them to when I power my PC back on.  I need to manually set the color on the controller (which is stuck on the backside of my motherboard tray behind the back panel) every time my PC is powered on.  Has anyone experienced this before?

    RTX 2070 for 1440p?

    pick a 2070 not for the dlss or the ray tracing , just for being a 1080 from this year. a 1070ti/1080/2070 can hold 144fps at 1440p very well. I play with a 1070 (not ti) and achieve 160 fps (1440p) in games like apex or 130 fps on pubg without touching settings.

    Are you sure you dont touch any settings?  I have a 1070ti (overclocked) and play Apex on 1440p, havnt touched any settings and pull 115 FPS max.  And your pulling this with a 1070 (non Ti) on 1440p?

    How did you test your overclock?  Are you sure it's stable?  Run something like 3DMark Firestrike and see if it finishes

    I run a full test with Unigine Heaven every time I change the clock, how do you suggest I do it?  Max out the Core Voltage and Power Limit and then do Core Clock and Memory Clock +5 at a time? Should I do +5 Core, run test, then +5 Memory?  Or find the max core first?  It was weird because this only started happening

    Your overclock *might* be not 110% stable.

    Revert back to stock, and start overclocking one thing (GPU Core of Memory) at a time -- NOT both at once.

    I am thinking the GPU Core overclock is unstable, rather than the Memory, but who knows.

     

    I am not too familiar with the cooling design of the Cerbrus cards, but the VRMs might be running hotter than the GPU Core itself.

    Core could be 70*C, but the VRMs (or the VRAM chips maybe) could be 90*C+ 

    This is what I thought, it was just weird that it only started happening.  Should I max out the Core Voltage and Power Limit?

    Good Afternoon LTT,

     

    I have been using an Asus Cerberus 1070ti for a little over 3 months now, been very happy thus far.  I have OC the card using MSI Afterburner with +135 Core Clock and +335 on Memory Clock, it was working perfectly up until about 1 week ago.  I have the Voltage and Power Limit maxed out, and has never caused an issue in the past.  The temp on the card rarely reaches 70C under load with the custom fan curve I have on, when the card does reach 70C or 71C the game crashes.  I have opened event viewer in Windows and it shows the NVIDIA driver has failed. I have not experienced any problems up until now, has anyone experienced this?  Do you think the GPU is not getting enough power from the PSU?

    EVGA CLC240 Radiator question Looking for Help

    in Custom Loop and Exotic Cooling

    Good Afternoon LTT,

     

    Recently I have been experiencing some issues with the NVIDIA driver crashing on my OC 1070ti, while I thought it was because the OC was not stable I have ran numerous tests through Unigine Valley, Haven, and 3DMark and they all come back fine, no crashing/artifacts have taken place during any of these tests.  I have uninstalled drivers with DDU, reinstalled the newest, reinstalled games that crash (not all games do) and I have kept an eye on afterburner while playing and the card rarely hits 70C while under load, but when it does thats when it starts acting up and the crash will happen.  Opening up Event Viewer in windows shows that the card is fine but the Nvidia driver has crashed.  I have reapplied thermal paste and temps have dropped around 3C and the crashing occurs less frequently but I want to get to the bottom of this.  I want to make sure that my fans on the inside of my case are set up the way they should be and get everybody's opinion on this issue.

     

    Currently I have an EVGA CLC 240 with 2 120mm Thermaltake Riing fans and 2 more 120mm Thermaltake Riing case fans and have some questions about the fan setup I currently have.

     

    Below are how I have the fans set up in my case:

     

    Front of case : Fans pulling air in|Radiator|Front of case

    Top of case: One fan pushing air out

    Back of case: one fan pushing air out 

     

    My temps are pretty good idle with the GPU sitting between 35C and 38C, and the processor sitting between 20C and 32C while idle, I feel like the fans in the front are not pulling enough cold air into the case due to the radiator being in between the case and the fans.  Is there a better way to set this up?  Should the fans be in between the case and the radiator?  I would like to hear everyone opinion on how to set this up the proper way so I can take the card getting too warm out of the equation even though to me it seems like a software problem that I can seem to figure out.  

     

    Thanks in advance everybody!

    I like my 1440. Use it for YouTube as much as I can as a lot of people don’t do 1440 yet. Pretty much the only use I have for it. Nice for video editing as well. 

    What model do you have?

    That's unfortunate... I use a 1070 and it's plenty, even with a i5-4690k :)

    Yeah I got a 6gb 1060 SuperSuperClocked by EVGA, so it's a quite more powerful than the normal 6gb but still not enough...

    When I was on 1080p, I also used 2 monitors. But when I went to 27" 1440p, you have so much space on your screen, that you don't really need a 2nd monitor imho

    Yeah I can imagine!  The only reason I have the 1080p 144hx is cause my GPU can't push 144hz on a 1440p unfortunately.

    1440p looks good at 24". It has higher pixel density than 1080p 24", so it will look sharper. 

     

    If it's purely for things like internet browsing, movies and such, 1440p is kind of a waste. Most content will be 1080p and web browsing won't really benefit from it. 

     

    Honestly, I'd recommend going for a good 1080p 24" monitor and save some money. Dell U2414H/U2417H or Dell P2417H are the ones I'd recommend. 

    I figured, I already have a 24" 1080p as a secondary. Figured I would be able to benefit from a 1440p because I typically watch Blu Ray and other high def media.

    Depends what you're looking for really. 1440p is good at 27" because it allows you to move up in size without losing sharpness like you would with 1080p. It's personal preference though, not objectively the best. 

     

    I would recommend a Dell U2515H. It's a lovely monitor. There's also the Asus PB258Q, which is great as well. If you want to spend a bit less, then maybe a BenQ BL2420PT

    Thanks for the input, I've never had a 1440p monitor before, so I'm really just looking for a standard 1440p with not many extra features, it's really just gonna be used for other apps while I play games, movies, internet browsing and so on. Would 1440p look good at 24" or would that scew the resolution?

    Hey guys,

     

    Just bought myself at 24" 1080p 144hz display for gaming. It hasn't even come in yet and I'm already looking for a 1440p monitor as a secondary for videos, web browsing, daily use.  I don't need anything fancy, no high refresh rate, no 1ms response time. I heard the best size for 1440p is 27", is this true? Let me hear your suggestions!

     

    Thanks

    Is 1060 enough for 1080p gamer?

    Thanks for the Advice , i have 2 brands of 1060 to choose from if i will have too , the Asus or the EVGA one ;)  , but like i said before i will wait for the prices to drop a lil bit if i can , and will see how it will act up with the new system the i will build soon

    No problem!  Also keep in mind EVGA will sometimes get stock and sell them at MSRP on their website!  I wasnt lucky enough to get mine cause they sell out fast but check back frequently!
