  1. That's unfortunate that a $200+ board wouldn't get an option like that. Oh well. Thanks for the information.
  2. If LLC 4 introduces vdroop and LLC 3 raises the voltage, is there absolutely no way to get a static voltage?
  3. Overclocking my 9900k and whenever I stress the CPU the vcore is showing (in hwinfo) consistently 0.02v higher than what I set (ex 1.315 goes upto 1.335 and then back down after stress). Using a MSI MEG ACE MB on override mode, so there shouldn't be any offset. LLC is set to mode 3 which is like the neutral LLC and shouldn't add voltage under load and just prevents vdroop (LLC mode 4 introduces big vdroop for me). Any ideas why it's raising?
  4. I use two displays, one with DP and one with HDMI. I recently tried switching my second monitor to DP because I will need the one HDMI output on my GPU for something else, but the monitor will not pickup windows output. I tried different cables and the different ports on the GPU to no avail. What's funny is I know it works, because when I dual boot into my linux partition, it will work for a few seconds when booting down (the 'shutting down' screen will appear on both monitors). When cold booting, the bios screen will also show up on on the second monitor but then go into power saving mode before going into windows. What could be the issue?
  5. I would definitely get ideas from other people's builds on this site for inspiration. Pre-plan where you're going to put everything--radiators, the pump/res, tubes.
  6. If you use the GPU to encode rather than the GPU he likely won't see any performance hit regardless. The RX 580 is more than capable for OBS encoding.
  7. 1. The Kraken x72 is one of the best if not the best, should do you well if you aren't going a custom loop. 2. Looking at the case it should fit fine. At worst you could lose a little bit of cable management room through the rubber cable runs. 3. The card is fine. You probably wouldn't notice a difference between top end 2080ti's. 4. 9900k is overkill for just gaming but it won't hurt anything if you just want to spend extra. I would get more storage than just your one m.2 nvme ssd. Games generally can run a bit better if they're offloaded to a secondary hard drive so that they aren't fighting the OS for the same resources. Held true back in the day but with how fast new ssd's are it may not matter, but if you've got money to spend I would get a smaller 256gb or 512gb m.2 nvme ssd for a boot drive and use that 1tb as a game drive. Why not SLI 2080ti? You'll max out all the games you listed with extreme ease on one card, but just a thought.
