Silicon lottery plays a big part on the eventual memory speeds/hashrate, and my EVGA FTW3 Ultra was the winner. Left it on 85% fan speed, about...
Just a heads up, be careful with tests with RDR2 in-built benchmark, as for me, it's a little inconclusive, but the minimum FPS is lower with...
Just want to confirm... Did you mean +1000mhz memory? I have heard of people underclocking the memory as it jumps to tighter timings but wasn't...
No matter what, you'll get 100mhz+ out of it. Doesn't matter if it's a poor clocking chip to start with, there's gains regardless.
Can you provide the link to the WHEA/parity stability error improvements you speak of? It's abit of a pain point for me and adaptive vcore tuning...
Whoever it was - I think they left already and went to work for Gigabyte with their RGB Fusion and Aorus Engine software.
So back on topic, for friends I'm now recommending B560 ($155) + 11400F ($235). Seems like a no-brainer. In stock, 6C/12T RKL IPC @ 4.4ghz...
Guys, stop it. Too many fond memories, makes me want to go back in time haha... yet strange I can't remember many details. Single core, Socket...
I think the worst I saw in this thread was something like "Stop crying about it", and alot of those comments were in response to derogatory...
As someone who has just gotten into mining as a hobby, I agree with most of what Persian has to say. Mining absolutely has been a big part of GPU...
Ah DFI. Great memories indeed. Either I've grown out of it or those were truly the best times of OC.
True, but I think let's just say each period of PC hardware has its own challenges. To get modern day OC right for most people, in my opinion...
Aside from there being "auto" overclocking to some extent, I would definitely say it's become harder now, with more tunable settings, compared to...
I've tested Noctua NT-H2 as TIM replacement vs Conductonaut, and yes, Conductonaut is over 10°C cooler. NT-H2 was an improvement over stock TIM...
Yep, 100% Gelid Extreme, KPX, Kryonaut, etc... will not compare for TIM replacement performance vs Conductonaut (or other LM). Even with...
Haha, I left the plastic film on there because I didn't want the memory to short circuit through the thermal pad onto the metal heatsink....
So... I've been sitting around 94-96 degrees with the Arctic 6.0W/mK pads... and around 92 with a heatsink on the backplate. Or so I thought......
I'll give Spit the benefit of the doubt and assume he misread Conductonaut as Kryonaut. Who puts KPX between die and IHS? Haha.
Excellent. I'm glad my thread has sparked alot of very useful discussion, hopefully for others contributing and reading this too. Thanks for all...
Lol, I have no idea what you're on about. Just saying the advice about Gelid Extreme being as good as LM under IHS isn't the reality. KPX...
