I wish they would get Hyperion vibes as well as Villeneuve did with Dune Part 1. Low chance, yet I hope.

Seller has most likely lowered "power limits", but why - no idea. 3DMark runs would be perhaps better proof, but also asking why the power limit is decreased might give some info imo.

Well, just by 20 minutes of suggested numbers it's not possible to say if it's stable, it's just that the seller is presenting numbers. And @RONOTHAN## said the rest. Still interesting would be to know how low are the "hotspot" temps if core is as low as 58C after 20 minutes, as that is really good.

Depends how long the test has run. 58c on core is good, but again after how much time? And GPU hotspot temp should also be available? Also - can't say if it's stable, just by fps and temps. Perhaps if it has run for an hour without glitches...

Write speeds are abysmal. Perhaps try another M.2 slot or just reseat the SSD. As the speeds on random end are slower than HDD would have.

~5C at max lower temps. I had 2-3. Thermalright LGA1700 one.

Yeah, of course the loading mechanism and applying technique play a part also. Can't really tell the best technique as even more important is to add enough paste, adding too little has a bad impact on temps, too much and you have a pool of goop around the ihs...

Even if buying one time application then there really are not many ways to go wrong with any of the listed Corsair pastes. The difference in celsius between a very good and an average paste is perhaps ~3C at max.

This rather seems like a Morrowind main quest line description/hints to me. In this case I mean finding "The Cavern of the Incarnate"...

One option would be to clear cmos with either a jumper or removing the battery for a while. Second are software options - https://www.wikihow.com/Enter-BIOS

Good deal but not suspicious I'd say. Edit: actually not the best deal I've seen (found used 1080 at 110€ here). Used GPU prices are going down fast lately it seems.

Yeah, at fan speed 0% it might be an issue. Perhaps it's just a bad fan curve or fan/pump header unplugged.

Or the superior sound to PC speaker? But noted! I really did not think someone would really be so desperate to listen sounds through monitor speakers as a 2nd preference, rather 3rd or such.

Is there really any point of monitor speakers? I'm actually interested. yeah that seems good for 24"
