#

The 3060ti takes a 12pin to a single 8 pin will that work if the adapter is 12 pin to two 8 pins?

fossil talon
#

@tender mulch ^

#

I have no idea

cold parrot
#

also i could only find the extension under configurator and the whole thing would cost like $50

#

for that one extension cable

fossil talon
#

The regular 8 pin to 12pin is like $25

cold parrot
#

plus shipping

fossil talon
#

The dual 8pin to 12pin is $50

cold parrot
#

they have a regular 8 pin to 12 pin?

#

i didnt see it

fossil talon
#

Ok nvm, they changed their prices again/configs

#

Have to double check

jagged sequoia
#

quick question

#

y do they make the fans on gpu face downwards

Bc that is where the core is

I kinda see what you are saying but airflow does not work like that

thorn kestrel
#

When do you guys think the next 3060 drop?

rigid crag

No way to really tell. Watch for newegg restocking tweets ig

fossil talon
#

3060ti no idea. 3060 end of Feb

carmine dune
#

Do we know if BB is dropping this morning?

rigid crag
#

We never know when they're dropping lol. They used to follow a pattern but they broke it

carmine dune
#

Fair enough

lone pond
#

@carmine dune SnailMonitor on Twitter caught the bb drop this past Friday, try following them to get a jump on the drop

carmine dune
lone pond
#

Lol that's the one that got me a msrp 3090 FE 🤷‍♂️

carmine dune
#

Damn nice

fossil talon
#

I lowkey want to hold a 3090FE, only held the 3080FE and 3070FE

meager shoal
upper sinew
#

the biggest heartbreak is seeing the reviews on the 3060ti going up on bb

carmine dune
#

3080 just went on Amazon but I click add to cart and it just tells me my cart is empty

fossil talon
#

Rip

carmine dune
fossil talon
#

Wait was that the EVGA FT3 3080. My friend just called me and somehow is getting it imported into Canada via Amazon.com

carmine dune
#

Yep it's EVGA

fossil talon
#

Bruh.....I'm sorry my guy

carmine dune
#

The struggle is real

tender mulch

Ye scalper

Scalped 3080

#

BB is the only one selling FE

carmine dune

tender mulch
#

If you see it somewhere else it's scalped

hoary phoenix
#

i paid 200$ for a 1070 is that a good deal

hybrid kettle
#

It’s decent

#

Considering there isn’t too much else out there for 200 it’s pretty good

hoary phoenix
#

1070 is a good card right

hybrid kettle
#

It’s older but I think it’s ok

hoary phoenix
#

ok ty

hybrid kettle
#

1080p level

hoary phoenix
#

ive been using it at 1440p

hybrid kettle
#

What games and what FPS

#

Are you getting

hoary phoenix
#

I play rust and its always like 130+

#

Other games run on about anything

carmine dune

It's a good card. Old, but should be fine for a lot of games

uneven girder
#

2070 super for $600?

tender mulch
#

OH HECK NAW

uneven girder
#

How much is it worth?

tender mulch
#

Mebbe $300

#

MSRP was $500 when it launched

uneven girder
#

Ok thank you 🙏

fossil talon
random walrus
#

In current market I would say $400 is max you should pay for one

#

If you really can't wait for new cards

uneven girder
#

🙏thank you for the info

craggy vapor
#

is nvidia 3060ti good with ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-core

tender mulch
#

Yes

chilly wing
#

Should i buy the 3060ti or wait for the 3060?

dawn plover
#

up to you tbh

#

it's an 80 bucks difference or so, you could use those 80 bucks on more fans, storage, ram, etc, so it's literally up to him or her, we don't know yet if the price difference is worth it or not

queen belfry
#

so i want to 2 loops in my pc. any pros and cons to that?

#

i have a 3 fan rad and a 4 fan rad

rustic pulsar
#

Can I use a 30 series card with a b460?

tender mulch
#

yes

rustic pulsar
#

Thank you

brazen flame
#

But can you get a 30 series card at all @rustic pulsar

rustic pulsar
#

I have my ways 😈 🔪

brazen flame
#

Used 2060s for 500. Seems a bit high, no?

tender mulch
#

That's MSRP

brazen flame
#

Yeah thats what im thinking. Its not like new either. Used for a year

queen belfry
#

i got my 3070 for 750

#

all i need to do is plan a loop

#

just not sure if i want to do 2 loops for the gpu and cpu

brazen flame
#

@rustic pulsar if you accidentally snag a second one hmu

hybrid kettle
#

@brazen flame I thought 500 was msrp of 2070 super

tender mulch
#

Oops

#

2060 super is $400 ye

hybrid kettle
#

That’s a terrible deal then

zenith lagoon
#

Is not how mining uses your GPU that can cause degradation its how long you are using it for mining.

#

Whoops wrong chat lol

dawn plover
#

that looks cool

#

wait nvm

#

i hate the joke they put on the headline

zenith lagoon
#

LMFAOO

#

"In a BMW's trunk"

#

They emphasize that

#

Just to annoy gamers

#

....

#

Lol

#

I have a bmw but I don't have 78 3080s lmao

#

I wish

#

Ah

#

Pll these days

#

Go go steal that entire thing

dawn plover
#

i mean i wouldn't be mad if they were mining optimized cards

zenith lagoon
#

And then see who laughs...

dawn plover
#

i think some company made those

zenith lagoon
#

Depends

#

What if he is mining with salad

#

LMAO

#

😁

rose adder
#

🤔

#

wait

#

lmao

#

if anyone is wondering this is on the newegg shuffle page

zenith lagoon
#

Fr

#

100% agree.

#

Its February now

#

Still no GPUs in stock

#

I dont think they will be in stock anytime soon I'm not gonna lie

#

We would see a small increase in stock slowly.

#

That is yet to be seen

#

The curve is steady

rose adder
#

I mean at this point samsung is fully booked for nvidia, tsmc is fully booked for amd

#

not much will change for awhile

zenith lagoon
#

At least for another 6 months

#

Don't expect to get a gpu easily.

#

Exactly.

#

Covid is making things harder.

rose adder
#

American* consumers

zenith lagoon
#

Covid + the price of cards + scalpers and miners = very low supply and high demand

#

No chance of getting a card easily

#

For another 6 months at least

tender mulch
#

Gonna get worse before it gets better

zenith lagoon
tender mulch
#

Lunar New Year is here with workers leaving in droves for vacation

zenith lagoon
#

Exactly.

#

Supply will get lower and when the supply can't fulfill the demand the demand won't move.

#

It will stay high.

#

I wouldn't be surprised if the market isn't stabilized until the next gen release.

#

Eventually.

#

But thats the thing

#

Yea

#

Its going to take a very long time

#

Its a shame honestly.

outer nest
#

oh damn, so the prices on newegg are intentional & not an algorithmic error thing?

zenith lagoon
#

If its ubsurd prices it may be 3rd party sellers?

rose adder
#

I think 3080 prices have increased already from some retailers, because the terifs are already in place, but it depends on whether you are referring to those price increases or actual scalpers

Aorus 5700xt is almost 700 CAD

#

i am looking for a PCIe x16 2.0 video card that is window 10 compatible. i can not seem to identify such a card on your web site. can you help me?

dawn plover
#

i don't think it makes much a difference jumping from 2nd gen to 3rd gen

#

so you'll be fine using a gen 3 card tbh

lone pond
#

2nd to 3rd gen is a big difference

dawn plover
#

frick, fr?

ripe crater
#

when i upgraded to windows 10 my current ATI 4770 graphics card will not interface with the OS so concerned if this will happen with an newer video card? I am guessing the old driver (2013ish) is not playing well with windows 10 after several attempts to reload the graphics driver via several methods (CD and web down load)

muted panther
#

bruh newegg says that they have 3070 but wont let me add to cart

tender mulch

Define run

karmic charm

question..
would a rtx 3070 fe be a fair trade for a zotac rtx 3070 twin edge oc white edition?

lavish otter
#

I am pretty sure there is negligible difference between the two at stock, though I don't know how they compare when overclocked

earnest geode
#

i just want to make sure, will my amd 7 3800x 8 core fit on the b550m steel legend motherboard right ?

#

wit a rtx 2070 super

#

?

lavish otter
#

Yeah, I don't see why it wouldn't

earnest geode
#

ok thank you

#

what is the diff between ddr4 3200 and ddr4 3600 ?

lone pond
#

speed difference

#

if your have amd cpu go for 3600

vital zephyr
#

about 400 mhz

earnest geode
#

so my amd 7 3800x and rtx 2070 super with my b550m steel legend motherboard will support the ddr4 3600 ?

vital zephyr
#

maybe

#

ill check

#

https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B550M Steel Legend/index.asp

ASRock B550M Steel Legend

#

if this is your board then it supports RAM way faster then the 3600 RAM

#

so yep

earnest geode
#

yes that is my motherboard ok thank you very much !

#

what is cas latency ?

vital zephyr
#

you'd need to go to one of the techies for that, i remember some stuff but i couldn't tell you

earnest geode
#

ok cool thank you ill go ask

lone pond
#

cas latency is kinda delay

#

in same speed low is better

#

its like 3600mhz cl16 is better than 3600 cl18

#

but it really dont that much matters get 3600 cl18

guess ill be getting the CORSAIR Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Intel XMP 2.0 Desktop Memory Model CMW16GX4M2D3600C16
over the XPG SPECTRIX D60G RGB Desktop Memory: 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3600MHz CL18 GREY

#

since its cheaper and has better cl

lone pond
#

corsair is better to my opinion

earnest geode
#

yea for the most part all of my parts are corsair so might as well just keep it as corsair as ppossible

#

the other one just looked badass

#

lol

lone pond
#

yeah

#

also you can check crucial ballistix

#

theyre good rams too

earnest geode
#

ok ill look right now

#

what is the difference between this one CORSAIR Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Intel XMP 2.0 Desktop Memory Model CMW32GX4M2D3600C18

#

and this one CORSAIR Vengeance RGB Pro (AMD Ryzen Ready) 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Intel XMP 2.0 Desktop Memory Model CMW32GX4M2Z3600C18

lone pond
#

idk really lol

#

they have same frequence same cas and same timing 🤔

#

maybe some overclock copacity 🤔

earnest geode
#

yea i know but one just says amd ready ?

lone pond
#

i heard D kits are better than z one before but idk why 🤔

earnest geode
#

so the first one i sent ?

lone pond
#

I dont think there will be visible difference to be honest . probably its just different chips and maybe different xmp profiles

#

id get cheapest one xd

earnest geode
#

lol ok well the fact that theyre different makes no sense

lone pond
#

different defaults

#

the XMP/DOCP is identical though

#

is it something important ? 🤔

grave hedge
#

hello

#

i just wanted to find out if the wait for the 1660 super is worth the wait

stone prairie
#

is it out of stock?

floral crane
#

would a i5 10400f and a 1660 super be enough for gaming the next couple af years?

stone prairie
#

target fps?

floral crane
#

over 60 in games with high graphics?

stone prairie
#

probably not on high for the next couple of years if ur gonna play heavy games

#

but for most games high-medium on 1080p

#

it should be enough

floral crane
#

okay thanks

stone prairie
#

when i say heavy

#

i mean cyberpunk level heavy

floral crane
#

yeah what about ark?

#

its for my brother

#

can i send a link to you?

stone prairie
#

ark is light

#

your setup will definitely run ark on max settings

#

maybe 120fos

floral crane
#

Okay thanks

grave hedge
#

what about a ryzen 5 1600 with a 1650

lone pond
#

if you getting a new build, 10400f is a better option

grave hedge
#

Ok

#

But this is around the same budget

lone pond
#

Is the rtx 3060 good for streaming and playing apex legends

hidden carbon
inland hound
#

yes

tender mulch
#

THe TI is, regular 3060 not out yet

hidden carbon
#

ooo i need to change my name

lone pond
#

Because if it isn’t I can spend extra for the 3070, but that will up the price by a lot

hidden carbon
inland hound
#

3060 supposed to have 12gb vram, which is great for all your streaming and gaming needs

#

3060Ti only has 8 but its more powerful

lone pond
#

This one good?

zenith lagoon
#

Gl getting that

lone pond
#

Why

zenith lagoon
#

I went to Canada computers, its on back order

lone pond
#

Ya but there’s still newegg

zenith lagoon
#

Won't be back until may

#

There is a list lmao

#

47 pages LMAO

lone pond
#

I get it when my semester ends

zenith lagoon
#

At least that was the one in mississauga, brampton, Markham and Vaughn

#

Not sure about others

lone pond
#

I basically get it in June tho

zenith lagoon
#

Oh ok

meager shoal
zenith lagoon
#

Still, gl man

zenith lagoon
lone pond
#

Is it that popular?

meager shoal
#

yes

zenith lagoon
lone pond
#

Are there any other 3060s that are good?

zenith lagoon
#

The supply can't meet the demands

inland hound
#

its so popular they sold out within the first half a second of being available

zenith lagoon
#

And things will keep getting worse.

zenith lagoon
lone pond
zenith lagoon
#

Gl man

lone pond
#

There are still other 3060s tho

inland hound
#

Ampere cards in general, we mean

zenith lagoon
#

Things will get worse before they get better, trust me

meager shoal
#

all cards rn

inland hound
#

yes, all cards

zenith lagoon
#

Worse then this.

lone pond
#

Oh ya all graphics cards are sold out everywhere

#

There are legit no graphics cards in Canada computers

inland hound
#

true

lone pond
#

I just hope I can get my hands on a 3060 near the end of June

inland hound
#

hope

#

thats what rebellions are built on

lone pond
#

I mean it’s June we’re talking about, there has to be at least one 3060 available

inland hound
#

just gotta get it when there is a drop

zenith lagoon
#

I'm telling you

lone pond
#

That’s scary

#

Holy crap

#

It’s that bad?

inland hound
#

no lies

#

its that bad

#

these cards came out in october

#

its been the same situation since then

lone pond
#

I’m starting to think this is sold out more fast then the ps5

inland hound
#

it is

#

these are the cards that the PS5 is using

#

more or less

lone pond
#

Well, I mean there has to be graphics cards in stock eventually

#

Because people pc’s can’t run without them

inland hound
#

maybe when Hopper or Lovelace comes out

lone pond
#

It can’t be that bad at June

#

It’s June, and these are graphics cards. Good thing Canada computers has a limit 1 per person

inland hound
#

I can almost guarantee it will be that bad in june

lone pond
#

Damn. I guess I should sell all my parts and just get a prebuilt one

inland hound
#

dont do that

lone pond
#

It’s reasonable

#

Why not

inland hound
#

no

lone pond
#

Y

inland hound
#

prebuilts suck

#

and are often not well built

#

and are really expensive for what they are

zenith lagoon
lone pond
#

Well not really, like the Canada computers prebuilt are pretty dope

inland hound
#

and often skimp out on things like RAM speed to lower cost to produce

#

or Hard Drive space

lone pond
#

Well, I’m in a pickle

#

Do u think they will be in stock by October?

#

Or I can get a used one

inland hound
#

Hopper will probably be available by october

#

RTX 4000

tender mulch
#

XD

#

no

lone pond
#

I’m confused

#

rtx 4000 on october? wut

inland hound
#

maybe closer to 2022

#

one can hope

lone pond
#

Or I can try and get one as soon as it comes out

#

Probly fail but it’s worth a try

tender mulch
#

If you don't need a GPU until June you'll be fine

zenith lagoon
neat jolt
#

when will gpu prices be back to normal?

lone pond
#

Well I need a gpu asap but I can only afford one at June

#

So yeah

zenith lagoon
neat jolt
lone pond
#

Also my cable management is crazy ugly lmao, like my pc insides are cables everywhere

#

Does Canada computers do cable arrangements ?

zenith lagoon
#

They said by LATE January it will start to get better.

#

Its just getting worse.

zenith lagoon
#

You can tell them to build you a pc

lone pond
#

How much?

zenith lagoon
#

You choose the parts and they will build it

lone pond
#

They charge 50 just for an inspection

#

That’s Crazy

zenith lagoon
#

Its expensive

#

Ik

inland hound
zenith lagoon
#

Its basically February now.

#

There are so many factors causing this rn

lone pond
#

Well I mean people need a gpu to play games so like it can’t get that bad, gpu’s are mandatory for gaming

inland hound
#

false

meager shoal
#

welp man

#

yeah you can play coolmath games

inland hound
#

also thats part of the reason why they are sold out

#

Scalpers

lone pond
#

Also off topic but, ryzen or core i

#

depends

tender mulch
#

Depends on which

zenith lagoon
#

Covid, the price of these new cards make them more affordable meaning that the demand will be higher. Supplies are limited because of covid, inport fees for singular products are higher, so supplies tend to wait for higher, bulk stock.

tender mulch
#

If ryzen 3600, then I5 10400

lone pond
#

How bout 3800?

tender mulch
#

Canada doesn't have the same tariffs

neat jolt
#

i want a rx 580 or 1650 s but i just cant find them

zenith lagoon
#

Thing is, if resources are limited or scarce . Nothing is able to happen.

#

And thats what we've seen during covid

lone pond
#

Well I guess (after June) I will just try and get my hands on a 3060, but till then, ima just be playing on console 😒

meager shoal
zenith lagoon
lone pond
#

I mean like I have a 560 ti but it’s not for gaming I don’t think

tired crystal

why dont they restock on best buy 😦

I got a used 560 ti because it’s all I could afford at that time

560 ti is alright.

zenith lagoon
meager shoal
#

they actually have a decent method

#

not just realease all at once

tender mulch
#

yeah they typically drop for an hour or so

#

Drop started at 8 AM, got mine at like, 8:45

zenith lagoon
meager shoal
#

yeah that why i think they are the best place to get a card

fossil talon
#

Oh you got another one Vintage

tender mulch
#

No

#

Not another

lone pond
#

Anyways see you guys, Ima just hope for the best that the card situation will be better at June. If y’all have any info for upcoming restocks just DM me

3060 release is going to be another hell for me. I have two people wanting me to get it for them

not good impression lol

though it is OEM only for now.

4gb of lpddr is a weird combo for 2021

lone pond
#

also no need to cause a good impression lol, the card is low end and it is pretty much oem only, it is just a small step for intel on dgpu market

we might see a intel gaming dgpu around the end of 2021 or in 2022

and shut it off before things burn

No smoke

#

Just the smell

tender mulch

From the card or PSU?

#

Start removing things until you find it

hidden carbon
#

So

zenith lagoon
#

The PSU might be short or overloaded, once the protection is activated it shuts off.

tender mulch
#

So, need to find source of smell

zenith lagoon

You said ram still has RGB on?

I was thinking VRM

Smell it from the cooler

Oh well then there isn't a problem

As close as you can

There is no smell from anywhere I can get my head

Check the gpu

Smell it

Nothing

It's all about the same as the room

And the gpu even still has that just out of the box smell

Still there

Huh

zenith lagoon
#

Ok

hidden carbon
#

Was gonna run a 3080 on it so I assumed it would be fine for a 3070

tender mulch
#

Might have been PCI slot or GPU then

#

Ye, that's fine for 3070

#

Put old GPU in

hidden carbon
#

So a reality might have done it

#

Oh

tender mulch
#

See what happens

hidden carbon
#

Ok

tender mulch

Seems like new GPU blew up and was tripping protections

Your board only has one 16x slot on it?

Ye

tender mulch

Try old GPU

hidden carbon

Aight

#

Gonna put in now

zenith lagoon
#

One 3090

tender mulch
#

Don't even know if it's the card though

#

Might be the slot

#

or GPU power from PSU

zenith lagoon
#

Yea

#

Just saying

tender mulch
#

Also the others

#

Might have been bad power supplies

zenith lagoon
#

perhaps

tender mulch
#

🤷

#

Just because someone said their 3070 is bad doesn't mean it was lol

zenith lagoon

I didn't say that

hidden carbon

Turns on

Same slot?

If still issue RMA card

And I waited 3 days for it

#

Well

#

Alot longer but that's not the point

zenith lagoon
#

So?

#

Did you try the 3070 again

#

But it's an aorus card, idk why that happened

some 9 series and i think a 1070

still never buying from them lol

Your just hating on it because you have had bad past experiences

zenith lagoon

They just popped the caps of PSUs lmfao

#

I had 2 asus cards, they died within a year

#

Aorus cards are sick

#

Can't just hate on em

#

Also

#

Some Evga 3080's had the same problems

#

They burned themselves

hidden carbon
#

Ye that was what I was worried abt

#

But atleast it wasn't my cpu or smth

zenith lagoon
#

Ye

tender mulch
#

The 3080's went poof from low quality PSU's

#

3080's have high transient loads

Back to my 3 year old 1060 that's seemingly more robust than a 3 hour old 3070

Lol

#

@tender mulch what 3070 do u have?

tender mulch
#

EVGA XC3 Ultra

zenith lagoon
#

Oh nice

mighty island
#

just ordered some thermal pads to mod my card with

#

excited

zenith lagoon
mighty island
inland hound
#

ooooh

#

3080

mighty island
#

vram is on fire

#

😭

#

even at 100% fan speed it's thermal throttling

inland hound
#

get more thermal paste

mighty island
#

so i am going to add thermal pads between the vram and backplate

#

and hopefully that will fix it

tender mulch
#

There aren't any already?

mighty island
#

nope

#

hence why it's running so hot

inland hound
#

wtf

mighty island
#

going to replace the stock thermal pads in the front too

#

ordered some much better ones

#

found this video on it

#

i asked him what his vram temp is after the mod

#

85C with 64% fan speed

#

i have 110C at 75+ fan speed

inland hound
#

which 3080 is this?

mighty island
#

vision oc

#

i have the same model

#

most 3080s have this issue

inland hound
#

I thought that one was supposed to be really high quality with good cooling?

mighty island
#

it is really good cooling on the core

#

but the vram is throttling

fossil talon
#

Interesting, if I open my vision, I might do the same

inland hound
#

makes sense

#

VRAM is usually an issue

mighty island
#

just bad design from gigabyte to not put thermal pads on the backplate

inland hound
#

happens on my 5700xt all the time

#

VRAM gets too hot and red offset breaks

mighty island
#

this video proves that it's very easy to tame the vram temps

#

but they chose not to

inland hound
#

thats dumb

mighty island
#

i have so much airflow in my case yet my vram is thermal throttling

inland hound
#

which case, fans?

mighty island
#

but it's not only gigabyte it's like everyone lol

#

td500 mesh case, stock fans removed, 4x ID-COOLING XF12025-ARGB (3 front intake, 1 rear exhaust) all at 75%, silverstone pf360 argb 360mm aio on the cpu configured as exhaust running at 20-40%

#

and gpu fans all running 75%

inland hound
#

only one exhaust?

mighty island
#

that's 4 exhaust

#

but 3 of them are running slow

inland hound
#

oh, the AIO

mighty island
#

so it still ends up being positive pressure

inland hound
#

fun

mighty island
#

my cpu never gets hot enough for the top exhaust to really spin up

inland hound
#

was doing my first AIO build over the weekend, but the pump control was broken

mighty island
#

even in prime95

#

so the airflow is primarily for my gpu

inland hound
#

nice

#

stock fans are usually alright

#

not the greatest, not horrible

#

generally speaking

mighty island
#

the stock fans in the td500 mesh were fine

#

good enough airflow

#

just too loud

#

and it wasn't the fan whoosh kind of loud

inland hound
#

acoustics dont really matter much to me

mighty island
#

the fan bearings were clicky

inland hound
#

i usually keep em in

mighty island
#

really annoying when i'm trying to study with no music no headphones lol

inland hound
#

why would you study without music in the first place? I always have a Lo/Fi stream going on youtube while I stream

#

double points when it's raining or snowing

mighty island
#

sometimes i study with music, sometimes i don't

inland hound
#

ah

mighty island
#

just depends on how i'm feeling

#

but i invested a lot of money to make sure my pc is quiet for when i don't

inland hound
#

come to think of it, I don't think i've ever spent more than an hour not listening to music

#

I think I know all the songs in all my playlists by the first note

#

I may be an addict

mighty island
#

i wonder how hot the gpu backplate is going to get after adding thermal pads

inland hound
#

do you expect it to get hotter or cooler?

mighty island
#

hotter of course

inland hound
#

makes sense

mighty island
#

thermal pads will transfer heat from vram to backplate

inland hound
#

has to go somewhere

#

get some LN2

mighty island
#

i have a figurine on the backplate but i put polypropylene under it

#

can withstand 160C so i'm good

inland hound
#

I had a POP figure on my 5700XT at one point, but that thing cools relatively well so all the heat went to the backplate

#

I got it off before it melted but that couldve been bad

#

throwback to when GPUs stayed cool enough that you didnt need 6 lbs in heatsink and fins alone

mighty island
inland hound
#

who is that?

#

LOL character?

mighty island
#

yeah

#

vayne

inland hound
#

havent played the game

#

too toxic imo

#

love the hype around it tho

mighty island
#

game is only bearable playing in a full group lol

inland hound
#

been listening to a lot of K/DA recently

#

looking at CG trailers and Worlds videos and such

mighty island
#

i'm watching my gpu hashrate throttle to 80 mh/s rn

inland hound
#

oof

mighty island
#

the guy who did the mod says he can do 100 mh/s now

#

on the same card

#

so the thermal pads will easily pay for themselves in like 2 weeks

#

haha

inland hound
#

how much were they?

mighty island
#

$26

#

including the shipping

#

that hashrate difference would be around $1.50 per day i think

pine rapids
#

ooo u a vayne main ?

inland hound
#

that doesnt seem too bad

mighty island
#

yeah they're the highest thermal conductivity thermal pads on the market as far as i can see

#

i was looking at cheaper ones but they were all 1.5-6 w/mk

#

the ones i bought are 12 w/mk

#

@pine rapids not really i just liked the figure, i do play her though

inland hound
#

w/mk?

pine rapids
#

ooo, i use to grind league a lot, now i barely touch it unless iplay with friends lol

#

balance team is non existent

mighty island
#

it's just a measure of thermal conductivity

#

yeah i only play to play with my gf now

hidden carbon
#

anyone know hoe i get an rma number on overclockers UK?

pine rapids
#

yea same lol

#

she forces me bot lane

inland hound
#

what do the letters mean

mighty island
#

watt per meter by kelvin

inland hound
#

ah

mighty island
#

1 w/mk means a 1m cube of material will transfer heat at a rate of 1W for every K of delta T between the two surfaces

#

these pads are 12 w/mk

inland hound
#

thats too much math for me

#

but thanks

zenith lagoon
mighty island
#

arctic mx-4 has thermal conductivity of 8.5 w/mk

#

thermal grizzly has 12.5 w/mk

#

so these thermal pads are pretty up there

hidden carbon
#

essentially

#

bigger number

#

better cooling

zenith lagoon
#

Grizzly liquid metal is 12.5 eh?

mighty island
#

nah that's the paste

zenith lagoon
#

Oh ok

#

U know how much is metal is?

inland hound
#

just get some solid mercury, that stuff conducts heat really well

zenith lagoon
#

14?

#

13w/mk?

mighty island
#

conductonaut liquid metal is 73 w/mk

zenith lagoon
#

Thats crazy

hidden carbon
#

wow

mighty island
#

the actual cooling performance you get doesn't really scale linearly though

#

or more people would do liquid metal

zenith lagoon
#

Which it is not

inland hound
#

what is solid mercury?

mighty island
#

i'm just going to put some of my mx-4 on the gpu core

#

it's probably better than the stock paste anyways

#

@inland hound 8.3 w/mk

#

worse than mx-4

inland hound
#

a lot lower than i thought it would be

#

iron is 80 w/mk
