Any big differences between the Noctua l9a am4 and the Cryorig c7? For a Ryzen 2600.

Anyone here tried the Id cooling is-vc45? How does it compare to the c7? Cheers!

Hello, how are you? Working on a build. The goal is 4k gaming at 60hz. Mostly 2160p, but migh also go for custom resolutions of 1800p or 1620p when 4k cannot be used at 60fps. Anyway, I was looking at using a Ryzen 2600 as the cpu for two reasons. Number one is the price. Since currenlty...

Maybe because TVs have to be able to display regular broadcast and cable TV that sometimes is 720p or even 480p in some cases. Anyway, my TV seems to do a great job with the gpu handling the scaling

Indeed. That is the video. That made me go and experiment. Today I played more Mankind divided and am really happy. Even at 1620p the details on the hair, clothing and materials is great and extremely sharp. I game at 1.5m from a 55 inch TV and at 1620p locked 60fps it is a great gaming...

From the top of my head I have the Division and Battlefield 1 that I know have resolution scalers. I will try both of them. Cheers

Today I am doing some experiments. I went to nvidia control panel and created two custom resolutions. One is 2880x1620 and the other is 3200x1800. Then I select the GPU as the scaler, to scale using aspect ratio and to overide game scaling settings. Then I tried some games. On witcher 3 I can...

Hello, how are you? I have my gaming pc on the living room connected to a 4k TV. Today I started playing mankind divided that was still in my backlog and even with shadows dropped to medium an no taa the game still has drops into the high forties at 4k. If I drop the resolution to 1440p the...

My current 1080ti is a blower cooler model and I don't ever want to get close to one ever again. It is loud and hot as hell! With the 2080ti I am definitely going open air cooler. Probably the gigabyte windforce oc that is two slot thick and 3 fans.

The official specs say the maximum gpu length for the dan case is 295mm. On the new 2080ti cards, the MSI Duke is 314 and the Gigabyte Windforce is not declared yet, but looking at it, it may be longer. That just leaves the EVGA at 270mm to fit the dan case, but the EVGA is more expensive. Since...

I have been seeing some builds on the Dan case and cpu Temps get me worried. I am really wanting to migrate my build to a v3 Dan case. My current build is in a Silverstone Ml08. I have a 8700 non k and a scythe big Shuriken 2 Rev b with a thermalright ty14013 fan. While gaming, my cpu boosts...

Isn't an open air cooler with heatsink fins perpendicular to the card like the evga 1080 and 1080ti models preferred? The air is forced by the card fans over the heatsink and it goes to the bottom and top of the case where it can escape due to the holes the case has. If you install a bottom...

Hello, how are you? Going to pick up a V3 case next week. I will be using it in the living room next to my 55 inch 4k tv for gaming. I am still trying to choose if I get the black or the silver version. But anyway, I have a couple of questions. I already have almost all the hardware. For psu I...

Can the freesync range be expanded to 40-60 with the cru method?

Hello, Just saw the PCmonitors review of this monitor: https://pcmonitors.info/reviews/philips-436m6vbpab/ I must say it looks quite good. The size, 4k resolution, HDR1000 with real local dimming and Freesync make this a very tempting offer. It is a great option for someone that is looking for...
