Yea. I am glad it wasn't a bad psu.

PUBG is notorious for bad optimization. But, if you saw other games get a drop in FPS, you could clean your PC if the temps are getting higher. It can also be drivers, etc.

You're welcome. That's weird it only happens in those specific circumstances, as usually chrome can just put stuff in an HDD if it needs RAM, it doesn't BSOD at full ram and you have 16gb.

I don't beleive software voids warranty, but wait for someone else to confirm. It's usually hardware damage. If you can though, it might be better to send it back for warranty if u have it.

It's fine. Every cpu does this. 1 mhz is a very negligible amount of performance, as usually they run 1 mhz lower, not a full 100.

Ok thanks for the info! I had heard other sutff elsewhere, but I'll believe be quiet! I don't even know if I'm gonna go with it though because of the horrific airflow on the top. The only thing I want from it now is really the inversible mobo tray, which is usually not for 200 dollar cases.

Thank you. Although I figured out how to fix it, it is nice to know why it happens and what to look for.

It looks good. I might buy one when I get more funds and I get some better fans. Although I would not get that exact model because I have a 2080, they have a 2080 model that happens to be 10 bucks cheaper.

Thank you. This fixed it.

yeah, but not all of them are available for NA, if you go on amazon, you see 5.
 
Here is ther breakdown (off the top of my head)
 
Black ed. (stock clocks)                                      normal (factory OC)
2070 blower
2070 black
2070 XC black (has TU106A)                             2070 XC (factory OC + TU106A)
2070 XC Ultra black* (has TU106A + big cooler)   2070 xc ultra (fac oc + tu106A+ bigger cooler)
                                                                           2070 FTW3 (custom PCB + all previous + 1 extra fan)
 
also there are 2 different colors for the XC black, one is solid, other is transparent, and there is a slighly taller but shorter (less than 5mm difference) XC black.
 

Heres my shot at it! Hopefully, I can get a new CPU soon.

NEVERMIND

You can up the power limit, it just allows the GPU more power so it can overclock higher. You can also up core voltage but this doesn't make as big of a difference as it did in the past. I would keep overclocking it, then when it starts artifacting in MSI Kombustor, turn it down. Get it into the sweet spot then run heaven and if that screws up lower it. It's just a game of perfectly catching the values for your GPU. I think you could push it more on both though.

I mean of course we are! If you have no budget of course we're going to recommend the best of the best! If someone has a budget then we can do a good recommendation.

I would drop the 2080 for a used 1080 Ti as they have the same performance. If you can, buy an EVGA Kingpin 1080ti, but an FTW3 is also a great options, or really they all are but these have the best overclocking capability.

I usually don't find it odd for it to run at max usage, as it will always try to pump out as much FPS as possible. If there is another GPU intensive task it will just turn down the usage on RS6. What settings are you at anyways?

It's a great CPU, the workloads I do though prefer 6+ cores and higher clocks are always better! Also the Ryzen 3800(x) does seem appetizing after looking at those supposed specs!

Every 8th gen chipset is compatible with 9th gen cpus and vice versa. Linus just said so in a new video. You just get a flash drive from another computer, load the bios and flash the bios if you're wondering how to.

I would just get a triple fan card and you're good to go. MSI has some nice ones.

Ti isn't for overclocking, just for better performance.

Like Xanthe just said, you could offer the PC and say you can buy any part you need and hope they sell.

Ok thanks for the clarification. I think I can make this work lol

It says the GPU's will ship around 9/20 for preorder consumers. So they might be getting it around September 10th if nVidia chooses to give them a testing sample/review sample, it'll come out around the 15th. I am not in LMG so I don't know their turn out will be of videos. It will be near when it ships though.
