    Round 2 of RMA request for new NZXT Hue+ light strips

    Exact same thing happened to me, 8 strips, 6 failed. NZXT finally had me RMA the whole unit with the strips. They sent it back and the USPS lost the package. Been waiting for 2 months and 15 days with an open ticket asking if they had insurance or if I just have to eat it. Something is going...

    High end 4k gaming machine slowed to crawl overnight

    Found the FPS ssue and fixed it. The latest NVIDIA drivers, 375.86 put a limit on my video ram speed to 800mhz per card for some reason and totally ignored MSI Afterburner no matter what setting I chose. I reverted back to the old 375.70 drivers and everything is fine again. Well other than...

    High end 4k gaming machine slowed to crawl overnight

    Yeah did all that above and have a fresh build on it. I'm not sure how the NVME slowness could be related but it's awfully suspicious that both were fine and now both are garbage. I used windows 10 reinstall os feature and told it not to keep anything. I noticed it made a Windows.old folder...

    High end 4k gaming machine slowed to crawl overnight

    Tested each stick of RAM separately and then again in pairs. No change. I then disabled SLI and frames dropped about in half, to 15fps at 1080. I then tested each card separately, physically removing one card at a time, same results. I even went so far as to try an old 1080p monitor thinking...

    High end 4k gaming machine slowed to crawl overnight

    I did, yes. No change in speed or behavior from what Windows installed to the Samsung 950 driver from Samsungs site.

    High end 4k gaming machine slowed to crawl overnight

    Error log is clean outside of a DCOM error on boot up complaining about permissions. Doesn't seem relevant. The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID {8D8F4F83-3594-4F07-8369-FC3C3CAE4919} and APPID...

    High end 4k gaming machine slowed to crawl overnight

    I'm not one to normally post for help but I'm just at a complete loss here. Here's the issue: Specs for reference: MSI XPOWER Titanium 170a Intel 6700k 4K G-Sync Monitor SLI 1080 XTREME Gaming Samsung NVME as loader drive for Windows and current games SLI and GSync on in NVIDIA control panel...

    GTX 1080 Overclocking Results Thread - Post yours here!

    Update, most games worked fine but Overwatch locked up at this setting. Finally landed on +150 / +350.

    GTX 1080 Overclocking Results Thread - Post yours here!

    +190 / +400 is about all I can manage. Driver crashes at 200 and thats with 100% fan curve starting at 80C. Oddly enough I don't get any increase in score on Valley nor Heaven benchmarks from stock to this OC though. Blaming it on the fact that the new SLI HB bridges arent out yet though.

    Lower benchmarks 980ti SLI to 1080 SLI?

    Oh I hear ya. I wasn't expecting the moon for such a minor step in tech but I was expecting higher benches than the old tech. I sold my 980's on eBay for 100 under what I paid for them then bought the two 1080's with that cash. 200ish bucks to be current and have better VR performance is cool...

    Lower benchmarks 980ti SLI to 1080 SLI?

    No, only have the one. I'll borrow one from a friend and see what that does. Good call, never crossed my mind.

    Lower benchmarks 980ti SLI to 1080 SLI?

    Just got them yesterday, upgrading from some g1 Xtreme 980 ti's, standard SLI bridge being used since the new one hasn't been released yet. Fired up several benchmarks and some are coming back lower while some are higher on the exact same settings. In Valley for instance, I was at 6591 with a...
