  1. Memory is the first place i'd look with that sort of behaviour. If it's Corsair LPX you're using then it's a crapshoot at the best of times.
  2. No, never. That is weird indeed. If you had the cooler off and never replaced the paste that is a bit of a faux pas.
  3. Totally normal for a stock cooler with typical Ryzen behaviour. A better cooler is option 1, option 2 is to set a negative offset voltage in bios, somewhere between -0.020 and -0.050. That will drop the spike voltage while maintaining performance in most cases.
  4. £500-600 Currently in the UK is a fair price. Recent completed listings on ebay have the GPU closer to 200 as prices are falling steadily atm.
  5. 1070ti is a nice card, a decent step up from the 590. A fair price imo based on performance currently would be 230-260 GBP depending on which model.
  6. I've learned to avoid Ripjaws V for Ryzen, finnicky at best. Flare X kits run better with AMD. Tried on various chips and 2 different kits of Ripjaws.
  7. Yes it's normal. In high load, low current scenarios the voltage will be higher. In high load, high current scenarios you'll soon see the voltage drop as the temp rises.
  8. Check you have space for the Arctic 360, it's actually almost 400mm long. I had 3 cases here, all with support for a 360 rad but the Arctic only fit in one of them. Performance wise i can't complain in the slightest.
  9. AMD drivers are actually pretty stable, it's the accompanying software that's usually the issue. The latest drivers allow you to ditch the software and install the driver only. Not ideal if you like the software but i'd imagine stability takes priority.
  10. If you have a display cable plugged in to the motherboard then remove it.
  11. From my experience it's almost always the case that's the issue with most cards. The heavier cards tend to sag a bit naturally but the modern GPU's that are of decent quality usually have some sort of bracing on the PCB under cooler to help prevent sag.
  12. Agree here, the X570 motherboard chipset drivers and if you didn't do a complete fresh install of windows i would start there.
  13. This is normal boost behaviour running light tasks (low current loads). If you were to hit it with a proper all core load you would see the voltage settle much lower. I'd run Prime95 or the Aida64 stress test and check what the voltage settles to after about 5 mins. Are you running PBO?
  14. Post some screen shots of your stream software settings, encoder/bitrate etc.
  15. iRacing is good in terms of optimization, the in-game graphics quality adjustments are great for tweaking to your desired quality/FPS targets. A 1060 6gb would give you a decent triple 1080p experience as the game isn't particularly hard to run. For 1440p triples ideally i'd be looking at a 2080ti, a 6700xt or a 3070 A team mate of mine runs triple 1440p with a 2070 Super and manages to get by.
  16. 3 x 2560 x 1440p is a lot of pixels, expect large frame drops in traffic and some tracks grandstands etc.
  17. Are you running Fortnite in DX11 or DX12? Does it happen on any other games?
  18. Have you tried the other Pcie outs from the PSU?
  19. Your GPU seems to be limited, avg clock frequency is very low. Check Nvidia control panel to make sure there's no power limits in place.
  20. Score is low for a 3600 running 4550mhz, should be closer to 10,800pts. Looks like you have a decent chip to play with though.
  21. The 2 pin is just + and - Has no rpm sense or pwm so should work on any 3 or 4 pin fan header and have DC control. Can you link the fan you have in mind?
