Got it working now... I didn't push the first stick deep enough.

Okay I got the new memory...I did notice that I got Mortar Max version so it's different to your after all. It's running 3600Mhz but I got only 1 slot out of 2 showing... I hope I didn't break anything. I try to re-seat the memory.

What a coincidence... I did just order 3600mhz CL18 RAM as well and I thought it would be supported on this same motherboard you got. I'll let you know what happens with mine when I get them. Well I do need more RAM anyway. It would've been a worse gamble to buy 2 random 8GB 3200Mhz sticks (I couldn't find exact same ram sticks anywhere new or 2nd hand) and hope they work together with the rest of the build.

Hey, I've been quite happy about my current PC setup for a while but I've been starting to have issue with running certain RAM hungry games (sometimes I keep 2 games open at a time when other is MMO and other is a single player game). I find myself at 95% memory use quite often especially if I have couple Chrome tabs open on 2nd monitor. So I would like to move from 16GB to 32GB. I'll be getting the memory 2nd hand to save some money (unless there is some good deal on retail which is unlikely to happen). Currently I got "Kingston 16GB (2 x 8GB) HyperX Fury, DDR4 3200MHz, CL16, 1" . My processor is Ryzen 5 3600. This particular brand and model of ram is quite popular here so I can probably find someone selling their pair in a week or two. But the question is that in case that I can't find this exact model 2nd hand, how bad it is to mix different brands as long as the specs are same? If I can find someone selling 32GB kit (16GBx2) at 3600MHz CL18 for a decent price (~20€ cheaper than a new pair), should I get that instead and sell my pair? I'm not sure what is worth it with my current processor. Thank you in advance!

Also if a person got their head in the oven and feet in the freezer the average temperature is "fine" in the middle of the the body. I was more curious about if the hotspot is on VRM/VRAM which is common for RTX 30 series.

Does anyone know where the sensors are typically on GPU? I'd like to also know because I got hotspot always about 12C hotter than avg temperature.

Not much you can do honestly. 83C is the target temperature for RTX 20xx series. Thanks to GPU boost the card will always "aim" there as long as there is power available and it doesn't hit the 83C mark. You can try to undervolt the card to make it hit around 78C but not much lower.

What do you mean by "maxed out"? I did install the java edition too just to see what kind of performance I'd get with 3060ti. The only thing that did change the fps for me was the render distance. At '32 chunks' the game got quite sluggish and around 40 fps. At '12 chunks' render distance it was around 250fps. It's limited by the game engine and not by your hardware. @Torreipis correct when he wrote that MC isn't very well optimized game... Windows Edition is better if you want to get a bigger render distance (32 chunks was running around 70FPS). Personally I dislike Windows Edition because it tries to sell kids all kind of cosmetics and other paid services if you want to join servers (luckily my daughter is still too young to get interested in the shop and she is just happy at chasing cows and horses... I got this version because it has a native controller support).

I used today MemTest64 from TechPowerUp. Got no errors this time. Something did happen and the stutter disappeared randomly... This is quite weird. Now frametimes are fine again and no stutter. I'm sure it will be back at some point and I need to pay attention what I'm doing when it occurs.

My PC just straight up did freeze and I had to turn off PSU from back to do a hard reset. I'll try to run the memory test again and if that doesn't show anything I'll try other XMP profiles or turn it off.

I did buy the memory in a bundle and I did check it and they look identical to me. Memory speed shows 1600mhz on Gpu-Z and Hwinfo but it probably means single card speed. On BIOS it says memory speed is 3200Mhz (dual). I haven't been able to do any memory test tho, some software I did try to use crashed. My first guess was ofc GPU drivers but updating or downgrading and checking power cables didn't help much. I haven't tried to change the cables connected to monitors so I guess that's the next thing. Other thing I've been considering is that I got 2 monitors with different hz connected to GPU. Other one is cheap TN panel 144hz (https://www.acer.com/ac/en/HK/content/model/UM.FX1CF.P01) and other is 2nd hand HP IPS panel 60hz (good quality, it was probably in office use for max 2years).

Hey, I've got weird stutter in some games since GPU upgrade (check sign). First I thought it's the drivers but there seems to be more into it. My frametime jumps around 10ms-70ms all the time and I don't really know where to start the troubleshoot with. (I'm editing the post and accidentally posted it before finished)

I see. I was automatically expecting noise and to be the issue since for me it was the main reason I did want to hinder the performance of the card.

Yeah, just do as @jaslionwrote... Pick only 1 software to use. In general GPUs always run at higher clock speed that what are advertised on websites. I don't remember the technical reason but probably it's partly related to marketing (if they state that all of their chips will run at 1890Mhz but some of them run only at 1800Mhz they will have soon issues with false advertising lawsuits). I understand the frustration @KingSadrais going through. I had this GPU and the noise it was making was quite something. I don't want to bash Asus because they've made good cards also (the one I use atm is really good) but this one was special. Anyway these 2 things you can try to do to tame the card: 1. Open the case for airflow, lower the power limit, lower the target temperature and set a FPS limit. 2. Setup a custom voltage curve to get rid of the factory OC (this is the best method and you don't lose that much performance). I can't believe this TUF card is still haunting me.

Hey, I've been using this software for a while for certain softwares get more performance out of my CPU. However what I don't like is that it automatically turns on "Performance Mode" literally in every Steam game. Games like Paper's Please and Hades definitely don't benefit from having my CPU boosting to max performance (Hades is capped to 9999 FPS or something ridiculous). I've been trying to browse the settings back and fort but I haven't been able to find any way to disable "Performance Mode" when launching games from Steam. Thanks in advance!
