  1. Yea I haven't seen a difference. I made it exhaust and my GPU temps are much lower but my CPU temps are just a little higher but nothing bad.
  2. Ok. I got my radiator mounted to the top of my case, which is a Meshify C by Fractal. 4 fans, 2 on the outside of the case and 2 on the inside since I barely have room for 4 fans inside of the case. I have my fans pulling air down into the case and then out the back and now my GPU temps are skyrocketing. Side panel is all glass. Should I be pulling the air out of the case through the top even with the radiator? That would mean hot air being pushed through and out the radiator wouldn't it?
  3. Never seen a bottleneck soo backwards before. Got a brand new RTX 3080 this week and had my 8700K for the past couple years. Ran a 980Ti off of it and then a 2080. I install my 3080 and boot up Windows, open up New World and my frames dropped dramatically in 1080p. Bumped it to 1440p and my frames go up, then 4k my frames go up even more. How is this even possible? I can no longer game in 1080p in most of my games anymore with this pair so I had to buy a 9900K and hopefully that solves my issue.
  4. Oh maaa lordy...I was going to buy that case instead of the Meshify C. Might buy it in the future though.
  5. I'm also using my son's legos to hold up my GPU from the horrible sag it has due to the Kraken G10 I have installed on it. The AIO on the RTX 2080 is a Corsair H55 with 2 120mm fans installed.
  6. Just built this beautiful gaming rig a few days ago. Took me a little bit to fit some of the parts in the case, did not know the Meshify C was smaller than your average mid-tower case. After a few hours (even for a veteran PC builder...big hands don't go well in small cases) she was all done and booted up without any issues. Installed a fresh install of Windows 10 Home on my SSD I was using from another build of mine and now I'm running benchmarks and stress tests, as well as some casual gaming.

  7. Weird. The Strike Missions and all those extra PVP modes all say "PS+ Required" lol. Almost paid $60 for a yearly subscription. Same thing for Bloodborne too I noticed on my PS4...never had a PS+ account and I can do all the online stuff too.
  8. So I just got around to finally purchasing Destiny. I grabbed the collection from the Playstation store yesterday and was playing all day today, assuming that I couldn't play any of the PVP stuff or online content that specifically says PS+ is required, and decided to play a PVP match and see if it would work. Well shit, it works. And so does all the other stuff that says PS+ is required yet I do not or have never had a Playstation Plus subscription. So has Bungie ever said anything about how a PS+ account isn't required at all now recently?? Does anybody else own Destiny without a PS+ account able to use all of the online content too??
  9. You're making me wanna play ED again...
  10. YEs! I noticed that too. I wish more games supported them I forgot about the rumble triggers until I hit my first corner and it rumbled lol
  11. Good thing it's not just me then lol. Fucking microsoft.
  12. Any idea where this is??? It's not in the Windows Store and its already about 10 hours into the 5th of May.
  13. 4.5 isn't so modest for a 4770k lol. But this cooler is old too
  14. Possibly. This thing never wanted to overclock when I first bought it so I definitely got a shit chip.
  15. Probably a big reason too. The 4770k runs hottttt at 4.5GHz. With my Kraken x60 that died after 3 years of running my current system, that thing would keep my CPU around 25C idle and it wouldn't go over 70C in Prime95 after 24hrs of running at 100%.
  16. Oh no, they want me to overclock their CPU's too haha. Then I tell them to go with a watercooling setup, even a closed loop kit wouldn't be bad. Then they swear by air cooling. I laugh. They come back later and ask for a loop.
  17. Hyper 212 Evo lmfao. Idk how people swear by this thing. I've built soo many systems with customers wanting to use a 212 evo to cool their CPU and they always come back asking for a custom water loop.
  18. That's what I have now temporarily until this thing comes in....not doing such a good job like people say it does.
  19. I have an air cooler on it right now and I'm hitting 90C lol. I haven't been a fan (no pun intended) of air coolers since water cooling got big.
  20. I just grabbed an H50 and waiting for it to come in. I saw nothing but good reviews for it, but from an actual overclockers perspective...what do you think of the H50? I have a 4770k OC'd to 4.5Ghz and my Kraken X60 just shit the bed and I needed to grab something quickly so I went with the H50.
  21. Lol thats Samsung Magician, not my ram It's my SSD after enabling RAPID mode
