Kind of wondering that myself after seeing your results side by side. We are fairly apples to apples minus the processors. Back to tweaking. lol

Tweaked a few things. Best so far and broke the overall 20k mark. Not sure there is anything left in the tank for the gpu. +1000 mem, +175 core. Some people look to have won the silicon lottery for the chips. https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/59124135? GPU 21516 Under water.

Ah yes thanks good catch! That was it! No idea how that was disabled but it was.

Finally received my EK waterblock and just finished build. GPU Score: 21,305 EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3, watercooled Driver: v461.40 https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/58569653? I think my question is why is my cpu score so low vs others of same processor.

I just built this same setup and was using the Corsair CX650F. My system did not boot either and had the same rgb lite up on the board. I assumed it was bad psu and ordered a 2nd off amazon and it also had the same issue. Then I bought a thermal take tough power gf1 at 850 watts and everything...

I have been running the 3090 FTW3 since mid November without issues on air. I have not bothered messing with the bios since I am still waiting for the EK water block(delayed until Feb now). It has been stable at 1995mhz and even boosted up to 2025 on occasion with max temps around 75(usually...

Congrats on the 5900x. How did you do a preorder for the dark hero? I keep looking around and can't even find it on amazon. NE I have notify set but nothing has arrived there from what I have seen.

Ditto... 4 times I made it to captcha and placed order...

All sold out already. i was playing the f5 game and added all of them to my cart numerous times to have them out of stock when checking out.

Thanks!

Is there some secret to how to search amazon for rtx 3080? My searches all show rtx 2xxx with no mentions of 3080 anywhere. Meanwhile BB had an MSI, EVGA and GIGABYTE cards show up for their "game" of you almost had it. My favorite is when you have it in cart and actually get to check out...

I just now received an email saying in stock. Until I clicked the link and its out of stock.

Ugh. Had same issue at best buy 2 times. One time it just told me to pick a different way to deliver it but had no options on how to change that.

Tried refreshing Best buy. The MSI was in stock and had added to cart 5 times just to have it be removed at checkout due to no stock. Never saw it available on Amazon.

Seeing compusa at the end of that made me nostalgic.
