Does not sound like that is the issue here. He reported that under load the fan keeps ramping up and down, that should not be the working of that fan stop feature. the fan usually only stops if the card reaches below 50 °C and usually with no fans spinning 50°C will be reach under less than 50% load. So I think that is not the issue

Try installing something like MSI afterburner and set a custom fan curve. If the fan still does the ramping up and down, its probably a broken fan...

The problem is that water cooling doesnt just work by putting a bath of water on top of something hot. You still need to get rid of the heat that you dumped into the water. For that you need a radiator, which this ram does not have...

Thats not water cooling, its just a tube with water on top

looks like a bug in the game, nothing to do with your gpu...

A 4% idle load is normal, most likely your monitoring program causes that. You could try fine tuning the fan curve and set them a bit higher at idle. But as long as the card doesn't massively throttle under load i wouldn't worry. 60°C aren't an issue as long as it doesn't overheat under load....

yes

I just upgraded my cpu motherboard and ram. (i5 8600k, ASUS Maximus X Hero, 16 gb corsair memory). Ever since the upgrade all online video streams get asynchronous after a few minutes of watching. Reloading the page fixes the problem for a few minutes again. I already reinstalled all the drivers and tried switching bitrates. Anyone got some ideas? Thanks in advance.

even if they are maxed, does't meant the game is well optimized. A game can still look like crap and max your gpu all day long. Also some features take a huge performance hit for very little improvement. Look at Tesselation and Nvidia Hair works.

If you dont see a difference, just leave it off. Some older games simply do not perform well on new high end hardware since they can not utilize all new features. Also PhysX was never very efficient and only few titles utilized it and even fewer utilized it well.

Coil wine hat very little implication on how good power delivery is. One wire should be fine two connectors is a bit better but it wont damage your components and likely you will see no performance difference.

No. If a power supply cannot provide enought power the voltage will decrease. That means that it can no longer supply 3V 5V and 12V to the computer and the voltage will drop. At that point the pc will simply shut off because the components cannot function at lower voltages. And also 650W is plenty for a 1080 Did you try updating / reinstalling your gpu drivers? Also what sort of monitoring software do you use. Also does this happen in other games too?

in stuff like gta yah its at 90-100%, but it feels fine, no stutter and 1080ti like fps. But yah i have a 60 hz monitor anyways.

im using a 1080ti with my 4690k and i very rarely notice bottlenecking Edit: At 1440p

for gaming i would say no. The single core performance of 4th and 5th generation intel is about the same as ryzen. Also since ram is so expencive maybe wait until intel releases a cpu that isn't susceptible to meltdown/spectre and see then...
