Which cables?

[raw gyro]

Alright so uh

I don’t know which color would look good for the 24-pin on the mobo

I don’t want to go with rgb since it would be meh

Since the gpu cable is already rgb

[bold coral]

go for white since the aio tubes are white

[raw gyro]

White with black accents or white?

Like the connector block

[bold coral]

to match the black accents here

[paper shale]

Specs?

[jovial haven]

I think it would look better with either both RGB or both plain white extensions

To be honest I think plain white with both, personally I don’t like the positioning of the GPU cable & the small space around it to work the cable. I think it would look cleaner with short slick plain cables that are also easier to manipulate & position

[paper shale]

It would look better like this

I don’t so much agree with the fact that plain white would be better but they should match

[raw gyro]

Brand recommendation for it?

Can you maybe send me a link?

To what you are talking about

Yeah the position is kinda weird

I don’t mind having plain non rgb cables

[outer light]

obviously white

[raw gyro]

Alright

[raw gyro]

Thanks

[weary yew]

This is so majestic

Asus & Lian li Rgb cables always look dope, I see corsair has made their own now as well, I haven't seen any reviews on it but I assume that the RGB acceptable & idk if I'm right but i also assume you can customise it in the Corsair Icue settings. All big brand RGB software is poo though (steelseries, razer, asus) and Icue included.

If you're gonna go with non-rgb. Honestly get anything (not too sketchy) that looks good & has cable combs. You can manipulate and position non-rgb cables a bit easier & get differen't angles/ positions. I'd suggest taking a look @ cable mod, you can totally customize your own cable to the smollest detail if you're looking for something specific otherwise quite often they have extension kits that go on sale quite often & have a few colour options. Hope that helps : )

@raw gyro please note that because of how big the gpu is (aka how close it is to the front fans) its going to rely soley on its own fans rather than recieve air from the case fans too

[raw gyro]

Oh .-.

So my front fans are essentially useless…

🥲

[warped vector]

They look good

🙏

Also based on how big that gpu is its prob fine by itself

What gpu is that?

[raw gyro]

4080 Super

1 finger gap room between the front fans lol

[warped vector]

Yea

See temps

[raw gyro]

Gpu temps?

.-.

[warped vector]

Yez

Yes

Go run furmark

Or occt

[raw gyro]

;-;

Hm

Maybe a white cable there?

[warped vector]

Yea

[jovial haven]

try some different positions with the gpu cable as well whenever open up your pc and tinker, experiment going straight underneath, coming from the top down from the same place as the 24 pin cables. Experiment a lil bittie

[raw gyro]

Yup, I’ll do some experimenting

To see what positioning fits the best

[warped vector]

@raw gyro can u check temps and tell me what ur getting on the gpu

🙏

[raw gyro]

Sure thing once I am home

[warped vector]

Alright!

[raw gyro]

Everyone saying my gpu cable position is odd

Yk I might aswell play with it and see what I can do

[jovial haven]

I don't know if it's because the case looks so smol with that brick of the GPU or if it's because the cables are coming from a strange position (GPU) but yeah idk. It just somehow doesn't look right? xD hard to explain

[raw gyro]

Yeah the case is kinda small

Since it is mid tower version

There is an XL version

My build is very compact

That 4080 Super is bigger than I thought

But it fits

[raw gyro]

Is nzxt accurate? @warped vector

Gpu is idle

[gray socket]

I would say use HWiNFO for more accurate temps

[raw gyro]

Kk

[raw gyro]

Where on the software?

I just downloaded it

If I may ask

[gray socket]

I believe by clicking -> bottom left

[raw gyro]

Thank you!

@warped vector

[raw gyro]

Is there a way to tell how much total watts your pc is using?

[gray socket]

I dont think so

[raw gyro]

I have 1000watts I should be good…

For a 4080 Super…

[gray socket]

Yea

1000 is enough for a 4080 super

[raw gyro]

Alr

I will fidget around with my strimer cable in a bit

Yeah the placement is odd

[raw gyro]

I sent the temps btw look above

Should be fine tho

Not too sure since I am new to all of this

[gray socket]

its idle?

if so temps looks fine to me

[raw gyro]

Yup

I mean actually it is running wallpaper engine on background

[gray socket]

dang mine idel 40C n its a 4060 ti 💀

(with wallpaper engine ofc)

[raw gyro]

37.5c for mine just saw

Interesting

On a 4080 Super

[warped vector]

@raw gyro i meant under load 😭

[raw gyro]

???

[warped vector]

Run

Furmark

V2 Knot vulkan

And tell me what temps it reaches

[raw gyro]

A application?

[warped vector]

Mhm

Its a benchmark

Id like you to also tell me whats ur peak fps as i never saw a 4080 super in action

[raw gyro]

Risking my gpu lol

[warped vector]

Wym...?

[raw gyro]

I see

I’ll look into it

[warped vector]

You know that max temp for a gpu is 100°

Before it starts thermal throttleing

And even then its fine unless u let it throttle for a few hrs

And it wont even let you do that as the app would just crash after some time

[raw gyro]

Imagine my gpu explode

[warped vector]

Is this ur first build

[raw gyro]

Crap I just installed the 24 pin strimer now it is not turning on

The rgb

[raw gyro]

Yeah

🥲

Anyone who worked with these strimer knows whats going on by any chance?

This is frustrating

But after I plug the gpu one into the motherboard now it is flickering

[raw gyro]

Nvm fixed

[gray socket]

The GPU alone is more than my whole setup 🙏

(Looks cool)

[raw gyro]

Thank you!

[raw gyro]

Yeah this rgb mode looks better

On the cables

[warped vector]

Okay then focus more on performance than aesthetics rn

I hope you didint buy it just to have something cool looking on the table

Check temps

Run benchmarks

See if ur parts are faulthy

As they can be
