Misplaced a gpu support bracket once that stopped the third fan on a gpu. Noticed temps were above normal pretty quick so no harm done. Might be worth a quick look.
Just told my wife she's gotta work overtime on mothers day because I failed to understand the importance of ray tracing and I need her to buy me a new gpu.
I'd be tempted to make an outside radiator with that thing. Been considering it for a long while now. Still thinking over the thermostat control system design.
I'm using it on my XFX with a shitty Bykski water block and I'm very happy with the results. Although I can't recommend that block(terrible design mounting system) the 7950 is performing admirable. My hotspot at 320 watts is 58C. I've found that lowering temps substantially I'm able to under...
The 6700XT would be my choice in your case. That system would likely get you near 144hz although the cpu would certainly be the bottleneck for it. I have a B450 Tomahawk max mainboard and 5600G cpu I will be posting here for sale soon that I'm practically gonna give away as I have no need for it...
Price performance of that card for raster is one of the best in that price range and it does surprisingly well at ray tracing with the extra CU's over the 7800. Never got to test with memory OC unfortunately.
Yea that hellhound is a nice and cool one. I recently upgraded my nephews rx580 with that gpu and of course I had to test it. Too bad the memory OC driver wasn't available when I installed and tested it.
Has anyone here water cooled a 7900XTX? I have recently and have some observations I would like to collaborate with someone else on regarding efficiency and core speed changes that are quite interesting after installing the water block.
I've been using this laing d5 pump since 2005 and it still works perfectly. I have another brand new in the box to replace it when it dies but who knows when that might be. These are first gen pumps that were apparently manufactured by laing thermotech chula vista ca. Originally got it to cool...
Through trial and error I found a flash drive that always works and it's the oldest one I own with a one gigabyte capacity. I don't think you can buy them anymore but it has never failed to flash a bios using flashback where as many newer flash drives have.
https://github.com/mbucchia/Pimax-OpenXR is as close as it gets with Pimax headsets at this point. The dev that created/maintains is really cool and even pops on to open mr forum occasionally to help folks that are struggling to get it functional. Performance is quite good using it on MSFS and DCS.
Yea that sounds about right but that's the attitude of most pioneers in any field of endeavor and perhaps why I like their products and continue to enjoy their efforts even when some think it's a fault. I've witnessed many instances in life where folks have said "it can't be done" and someone...
Maybe they decided that there is no currently available gpu that can run at 12K resolution with acceptable refresh rates to power the 12K yet so bolster sales with what people actually wanted to begin with like respectable clarity ,resolution , decent frame rates without the excess expense of...
When I had the occulus rift s google earth vr was awesome. Could fly like superdude around the planet in 3d and drop down to street view in small villages in the Alps to see the villages. Found a few valleys like that I'd like to visit one day before I kick off.
There seems to be some debate about this as a matter of Altitude condition. Which do prefer for low altitude non commercial flight environmental quality as I haven't tried it yet?
Finally got my hands on an 8KX that works with AMD gpu's and the 7900XTX runs it with no problems at it's native resolution using only 275 watts at 72 Hz. I can run it at 90Hz but that pushes it up to 340 watts and I don't like the heat output during summer heat so it's perfect there for now.
Rumor has it Pimax will be releasing two new versions of the Pimax crystal and both versions will be PCVR only. These versions will be minus the battery and the stand alone VR hardware meaning much less weight/mass. The headsets will be released in Q2 and Q4 with the Q4 version sporting micro...
Pimax rumored to be releasing a cut down version of the crystal in Q4 this year. The headset will be strictly PCVR with no battery or stand alone hardware and oh yea 4K micro oled panels.
To determine what screws you need take one screw that fits but is too short and find the nut that fits it perfectly in the machine screw nut bin at the hardware store or wherever you decide to buy them. That way you'll know the thread pitch and diameter. Then find the correct length in the bin...
Ace hardware carries one of the best assortments of odd ball bolts and screws. Whenever I need shorter/longer screws for an off the wall project they are my one stop supplier.
This thread reminded me of an incident several years ago at PDX lan. So day two of PDX lan a friend of mine asks me to look at his buddies pc because it just shutdown and now only powers on for a couple seconds before shutting down again. I go over to where his setup is and tell him go ahead and...
That memory kit is the best memory I've found so far stability wise on several AM5 boards I've tested. Really just plug and play after setting xmp. When I bought it was advertised as Intel xmp ready.🙄
I grabbed one of those I fixit kits a couple years ago and have no regrets whatsoever. Some of the bit tips I don't recognize and have never encountered but when I finally do I'll be good.
