Hi my system currently comprises of a Threadripper 1950x , 32gb of 3200mhz ddr4 ram and a gtx 960. im looking at upgrading to a new graphics card and ive got 3 im considering , A 1080 ti AIO and a 2080 super or 2080 ti (depending on price ) Would my 1950x bottleneck the 2080ti/super? . i know a 1080 ti would work perfect but since a 2080ti/super isnt much more expensive i may stretch to one of them for the power efficiency and ray tracing capabilities Thanks for your knowledge and yes i know a threadripper is a unusual chip but i host alot of game servers off my pc and the extra cores and ram wiggle room is amazing (i paid less then £400 for my current system) Pc specs to help 1950x overclocked to 4ghz at 1.45V Noctua tower Asus x399-A Board Gtx 960 gigabyte windforce x2 4GB (this is what im swapping out) Corsair vengance 8x4 set of 3200mhz WD 4tb WD 3tb Rando sata 250gb ssd (better than a HDD atleast) OCZ 600W psu Corsair c70 ammo box case Thanks! -
Are the GTX 960 and 970 any good anymore? They go for $100-200 on eBay now. I found a 960 on eBay for $140. (Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/234343426915?hash=item368ff4eb63%3Ag%3AcY0AAOSwAa9hv7Kk&LH_BIN=1) I think they have some value to them, but not a lot. -
My display looks like this when I power on the new system. I used my old GPU from a previous setup on my new build but it had to sit in my locker for about 2 months. It was wrapped up in an anti static bag and wasn't moved around much. Card: Gigabyte GTX 960 G1 4G Is it possible to fix this? Update: after letting it run like that for about 5 minutes, it seems to be working alright.

The ViewSonic VX2458-C-MHD 24-inch 1080p 144hz Curved Gaming Monitor is available to me for USD 162.26. I have an i5-3570 paired with a Gigabyte Single fan GTX 960 4GB. I am buying this monitor for Valorant@1080p144. Will my PC be able to manage it? Does my GPU have G-sync? This monitor has Freesync, will it work with my GPU? Is this monitor worth it? -
This is my first ever post, but I can not find anything to help with my problem. Basically I’m fixing (trying to) a friends PC and I’m getting very weird reactions from the GPU. The gpu will not display anything when all set up normally, but if I follow a very weird sequence of operations it will work fine until I turn the pc off. M/B is a dell proprietary one I took from a prebuilt I had laying around. cpu i5 - 4460 16gb of ddr3 ram evga gtx 960 (the problem?) seasonic power supply So the sequence I have to follow to get the gpu to display like normal is as follows: 1) unplug 8 pin from gpu 2) turn on pc for 10secs with no power cable in gpu 3) kill power on back of power supply with switch. 4) plug 8 pin into gpu 5) turn pc on and poof it works all of a sudden. I’m trying to fix this before modding his case to fit a R9 390 I’ve got laying around. any help is appreciated!

Hey guys, just signed up to the forum! I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice, i wanted to upgrade GPUs as I have a Gigabyte gtx 960 4gb (bit outdated), but ive been reading that new gpus should be dropping soon but with this corona virus i would assume it would be delaying that massively. So pretty much im wondering should I: 1. Buy 2070 super and bite the bullet if new gpus drop even tho its a $800 aus card 2. Buy another 960 and run SLI until new gpus drop - i found one for $160 aus Im more leaning toward 2 as my performance isnt that bad and id rather new gpus to drop and then build new pc then instead of buying a 2070 now and it being inferior in 2-6 months Cheers lads!

Hello, I bought a second GTX 960 Asus Strix 2GB card off someone from offerup for 45$. I bought it thinking it was 4GB, in fact, he told me it was, my plan was SLI so I could boost my frames for a bit. However, windows does not give you an option to SLI cards with different VRAM. is it possible at all to pull it off? at all custom BIOS anything. any help is appreciated. :)

So, my friend has a computer with does not have a graphics card. I gave my old card to him and went over there to intall it. It's a Geforce 960 2gb btw. When everything was plugged in and we fired up the pc I worked fine. Until we started CSGO and it would not start, it popped up a window how said that it did'nt work aswell with a lot of numbers, i don't remember. Then I started LOL with worked, we got into a game and everything. Just that it was an avrege of 2 fps. So o thougt that it might be the drivers who needed an update but when i had downloaded the update, i wasn't compatable for some reason... I don't know what to do fron here, pls help me! With regards...

Hey Last August I bought a used 980Ti and swapped it out for my 960. Ever since then my computer has been performing worse in certain games eg: Overwatch and CS:GO. However in The Witcher 3 i can run everything on ultra and still get above 60FPS I bought the 980Ti because I have a 144hz monitor. I really don't care about the graphics so in most FPS games i run everything at low settings to get atleast 144fps In Overwatch my settings are everything set to low/off with 75% render scale. In teamfights where the framerate matters, i get around 90 fps. My 960 used to get around 120 with the same settings. Same thing goes for CSGO, much lower framerate than what i used to get. UserBenchmarks: Game 90%, Desk 66%, Work 47% CPU: Intel Core i5-6500 - 74.1% GPU: Nvidia GTX 980 Ti - 99.7% SSD: Samsung PM810 2.5" 7mm 128GB - 47.9% HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 1TB - 115.3% RAM: Kingston HyperX DDR4 3200 C18 2x8GB - 67.9% MBD: Asus B150M-A My PSU is a VS550 from Corsair. I know it's bad but my system was a prebuilt system 4 years ago. They cheaped out on the PSU Ram is being bottlenecked by my mobo because it only supports up to 2133Mhz I formatted everything today and re-installed Windows on my SSD just to absolutely make sure there's nothing wrong with a driver or something like that. Is my GPU being bottlenecked by my processor? Do I have to invest in a better mobo/CPU? Perhaps i need a more powerful PSU? I'm running out of ideas here. I'd love some help

I have a motherboard with 2x6 pin power connectors from the motherboard to the psu. I want to add a graphics card, but want to know if there are any limitations because of the 2x6 pin connectors instead of the standard 24 pin? The graphics card I want to add is either a 750 ti, 950 or 960. The power supply is 450w, so no problem there. The motherboard I am using: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=1JW-000M-000T5

So I got a GTX 960 from my friend, he had it for a while he had acquired somehow for a while. He gave me the card and it has 1 issue, it's missing 4 chips. I know it's a high probability it is unfixable, but I want to give it a shot. I took it apart and the board is pristine under the fan and the back looks fine except for those 4 chips. Anybody know where I can find the chips to repair it? I plan to clean the solder off, put solder beads, insert the chip partially while it's till hot, then bake it in my GPU toaster oven i've used for my other 960.

Hi, I recently got a fake gtx 960 4gb. I'm trying to identify the card with no luck. I read around that the fake 960s are usually gts450 but the gpu isn't the gf106 or the gf116 (second rev gts450). The only thing i confirmed was the memory. There are 8 memory chips, from Samsung, 1gb of gddr5 total. The gpu has a weird name on it "PFU261.M00" also "12C2B433 1207A1 - S TAIWAN" I also have a CH341A programmer because nvflash didn't work. My question is, what bios to load in to the bios chip? (it's a PM25LQ020) Tried to find by matching the bios version i saw in the fake bios, tried to find by matching the board id number, tried to find by matching all of the above, plus the outputs that the card has. Also, on the board, there is a spot where a 6pin connector could be soldered but there no connection going to these solder points. Btw, when a flash the card with a bios, most of the times, the pc boots up but the screen is FILLED with vertical and horizontal lines and a few seconds later i get a bsod about nvlddmkm(i think?). Other times, the pc just wont boot and stays on a black screen just before the windows login screen. Can anyone help me flash the card to the original? Thank you so much in advance! Alex.

I've been looking at graphics cards and I've found a 950 and a 960 at about 67 euro each, I've got an i7-860 and I'm planning on overclocking it. Which would be better considering my PSU is only 400 watts? on a side note how big would a difference be between 2 and 4 GB of ram?

In December of 2017 I built the system listed in my signature with a 500 GB Samsung 960 EVO as my main drive. It generally performs well but is showing bios boot times higher than that of the system I used previously (with an 850 EVO and a 6700k) at 21-22 seconds compared to 17-18 (the autostart services are very similar). Furthermore, the latency listed in the task manager is often several ms and game loads often take longer than on the intel system. Samsung magician reports the latest version of the firmware (3B7QCXE7) but articles such as this date it back to late 2017 and report performance issues with it. I am running the latest version of windows 10. I'm at a loss here unless the issue is related to Ryzen (I have installed chipset drivers).

Hello all! I recently upgraded from a GTX 750 ti FTW edition, to an EVGA GTX 960 (SSC). With my 750ti, most of my games were fine, just had to play on lower graphic settings than desired, so my friend gave me his GTX 960 at a decent cost. I watched him playing PubG just the other day after he offered it to me, so, no, I didn't buy a defected card. Anyway.... After installing my new GPU, I ran Nvidia drivers to update, restarted my computer and opened up Overwatch...FPS was decimated to 10-40. So I decided to run DDU, uninstall the driver and reinstall....same issue. I made sure that this is happening on other games as well, and it is. CSGO, Dead by Daylight and Overwatch all have new FPS issues that were not present with my old card. I attempted to going back to old drivers, but that didn't seem to help. The drivers I had when the problem initially started were on the newest drivers that were released just about a week ago. I also tried this with the previous drivers (I think it was 397.83, whatever came out in May of 2018). The same issue persists. I've even followed some advice online about changing the power management settings in Nvidia Control Panel > 3D Settings. Even after changing this to maximum, the same issue is still here. I've gone to /r/techsupport but replies seem to be slow tonight and after 2 hours of trying to fix this, I've decided to try LinusTechTips forum! Anyone have any ideas at all? I'm gonna try one more thing...I'm gonna try swapping to my old RAM which I replaced a few weeks ago. However, my game was running fine with my new RAM and my GTX 750ti. I will update the thread once I do this and test it. SPECS---- ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 MOBO Intel 3570k CPU (No OC) 16GB RAM @ 2133Mhz 650 Watt PSU (I think it's a Cooler Master GX series)

I decided it was about time I sign up for a forum where I can finally get opinions on what I should do with my hardware, since I love Linus Tech Tips I thought this would be the best place to start. So hello! I have an issue; I have two 960s (2GB each) one EVGA FTW 960 and an EVGA SSC 960 just laying around, haven't used them since the 10 series cards came out. Currently I have a 1060 Founders Edition (6GB) installed. Which would be better? The two bridged 960s, or single 1060? Originally I had the FTW in my PC since mid-2015 and they SSC in my brothers computer since 2016. (Power consumption is not an issue for me) -
Hey guys, so sytem specs are the following: - Z97 Gaming 5 motherboard - 2X GTX MSI Nvidia 960s -850 corsair PSU -I7-4790K Intel CPU - 32GB of DDR3 OS - Windows 10 The second 960 wont run while playing overwatch. I've confirmed this with MSI afterburner which can see the card but has no increase in power nor temp to it while in game. Is there a setting I'm missing or software even for SLI? I have updated GPU drivers and motherboard bios.

I was going to send my friend my EVGA 960 as I didn't need it as it was just in a box gathering dust. I recently tested it on my Workstation PC and at first, I was having trouble getting a signal from it. Now I seem to be getting this extremely strange pixel thingy Idk how to describe it. Mute the sound as I have my fan on. Also, ignore the background

I currently have an HP Phoenix desktop with 16 gb ram and a Nvidia GeForce 960. However, I'm growing a bit tired of my 960 constantly running on 99% load on all of the games I play. I'm looking for a good gaming graphics card, preferably GeForce, with good cooling, and in a price range of $350-$500. I need a graphics card that I can rely on, and that will last me. Any suggestions?

Hi community! I'm from Vietnam and have roughly $130-$140 to spend on an used graphics card - and since i'm building a new rigs, i'm getting a new power supply In Vietnam, a 650W power supply is ~$5 more expensive than a 550W one. Both are Bronze rated so quality wise, it's decent. Remove the PSU factor I've gathered choices, and most compelling amongst are GTX960 Windforce G1 or MSi 2 fans version(~$150) and R9 280X MSi Twin Frozr(~$125). If i'm going with the 960 then i'll use the 550W PSU & if i'm going with the 280X i'll use a 650W one I use air conditioner but don't want to spend a hell lot in electricity bills & I play CS:GO, GTA V, Battlefield 4, Fortnite, Minecraft & except for Minecraft, which i'll be playing on Max, I play mainly on Low/Medium 1080p. And a bit of streaming too, i'll use GPU acceleration for encoding to YouTube. Will 2GB on 960 kill the gameplay? Will 280X's 250W TDP kill my electricity bills? Which one should I choose? Thanks!<I will have adequate cooling within my case>

So I've been trying to squeeze all the performance I can out of my 960 (4GB model) for PUBG, as the game often stutters; shown in my screenshot below [1] Also as seen in the screenshot below, I've managed to get my VRAM clock +756MHz and that appears to be the limit. Trying to get my VRAM any higher results in... this [2] Sadly, I can't seem to overclock my Core up any higher than about 50MHz.. and I'm not really sure on if (or how) to overvolt. I'm fine with my VRAM being as high as it is.. I'm not even sure if that sort of OC is normal. Really want to OC my Core more, though. Suggestions welcome. [1] [2]
