    It’s a shame when you scroll back just a few pages and see almost every rig having multiple cards.  Gone with the times it seems.
     
    Grabbed some old parts, some new and remade my spare rig again. Currently my school computer and possibly work from home setup.

    Mick Naughty got a reaction from xPoseidon in GPU advice for 3770k?   
    An Evga 1060 SSC 6gb model. No reason to limit your self to 3.5gb even with that cpu. I played alot of BF1 with that cpu, being cpu intensive I still used a 1080 with it. But if going with even more modern and more demanding games, it can be an issue. Just comes down to how much you wonna spend I guess.

    Mick Naughty got a reaction from IkeaGnome in Is buying a miners 6700xt for 300 eur worth the risk?   
    Some people just have the common mindset that once the part leaves the original owner hands that it will fail instantly. Not sure how they can even function like that. 
     
    Cards were failing way before the mainstream mining came a lot. Crappy products and less than intelligent users. 
     
    No reason not to get one. Do your up maintenance and don’t get the lower end products. Cheap enough to go get another one if it fails. Same as anything else in life.

    Always do a loop. No reason to be a pleb and just get by when its so easy and fun to do.

    Mick Naughty got a reaction from ApolloX75 in Used custom loop parts - Yay or Nay?   
    Prolly have bought 25 blocks, most used and even coming with cards. Had 3 dirty gpu blocks, cleaned them and they perform the same. Only got a few used rads and never had an issue. Half my pumps were used, one fried after a while which is common for its version. One has a rpm reporting issue. I'd do it again if need be. Fittings are the only things im iffy about. As I can't replace the orings on most and not knowing their age, it's a gamble. But thats only for rotary fittings and such.

    Out of 20 or so cards, half were used. Last one was a 3090 from ebay. Continues to work perfectly fine. 
    I'd gladly pay 500 for a 3080. Anything is better than playing on my old 1080ti. As long as its an FE model or a Evga using a reference board.

    Havent had any issues from the brands I've bought. i'd just get one thats gonna match the best. I dont see a link. Most of them have the same ID, I assume dont want a large fitting overall and nothing to gain with going larger. I tend to go with titan rig recently for all my fitting needs.

    Two 90 fittings and a long enough telescopic fitting. Or sli fitting as some would call it.

    Mick Naughty got a reaction from Crunchy Dragon in I need to test a graphic card in 30min   
    Figure out the monitor size for the test and look up GOW results and run them the exact same. 
    5 mins of furmark into a time spy run then play gow. Should be plenty to verify it matches the results you can look up beforehand.

    Mick Naughty got a reaction from mintymalty in should i buy 4090? or wait for 5090?   
    Might as well wait for the 6090. I heard it will be better for both parties.

    Yea just dont play 1080p and expect high frames without pegging the cpu to 100% for any cpu intensive game. Most people tend to be 30 frame gamers nowadays.

    Well I'll go off my own testing, it isnt enough for a 1080ti either. Cpu is far too weak.

    A 4790k isnt even good for a 1070, so a 3080 will be a bit problem.
    I only use 2x6 pins for my 3090. Psu should be perfectly fine, especially given how low the card will be performing.

    Mick Naughty got a reaction from 4lch3my in RTX 3090 w/ i9-9900K - HIGH CPU usage   
    I have the exact same rig. Fps is lower with the 9900k than something better but runs well on mw2. 
    I did swap back to a 1440p monitor though, not sure what you are on.
    Only doing a slight overclock of 4.6 on it and running the gpu stock. Enough power left over to record as well.
