I'd be VERY interested in tests how these additional fans help with the cooling of the GPU.
Especially cards with zero fan mode. These never keep on zero during desktop mode. And this on-off-on-off is nuts - especially when the fans ramp up for a short time during the on-phase.
I'm no fan of...
I'll wait for the first reports of the new v4, especially from ppl using a zero fan GPU.
That off/on/off on the desktop made me crazy, i really hope the bigger fan on the botton will solve that problem.
Still got a v2 black in the original Kickstarter box - unopened here. :/ (i think it's...
The way the fins of the CPU cooler are aligned i'd say the airflow is blocked by the ram and the shield behind the HDMI connectors.
Woun't it be better to turn the noctua by 90° so the airflow goes up/down?
Well, with prices for graphic cards during summer i had not much possibilities. CPU is not the problem, i get the same values with my i5-7600 + l9i. The ASUS STRIX 1070 OC on the other hand is a PITA with a hell of noise curve. :/
Okay, after 1 month tinkering around with the case i give up. Small and silent at the same time is just not possible - at least not in the way i want it.
If somebody wants a "used" Dan Case A4 - PM me with an offer. I can't post in the FSFT forum since i don't have 100 posts. :(
Picture of...
Greetings, since i see a GPU TDP discussion running:
I have currently an ASUS ROG STRIX 1070 OC for my Dan A4 which even in idle can't keep below 50°C. Every few minutes the fans spin up for a short time. The only way to keep the on/off noise away is the MSI Afterburner which gives me a minimum...
Finally got time to install the cables from CableMod.
My results are a bit...mixed. The qualitity is top, the handling of the cables is way easier now - lots of free space. But for 120€..well, decide yourself.
Corsair SF450, Gigabyte H270n, Asus STRIX 1070
ATX 150mm
EPS 250mm
PCIe 350mm...
Thanks, i tried both tuning programs. The MSI Afterburner is better since it allows fan curves with a starting point below 50% - the GPUTweak doesn't allow this.
That's why i don't use the 0db switch, the miminum fan speed is with 50% way to high. But true, the MSI afterburner is still a...
Perhaps somebody can help me with my 50°C idle temperature problem on my ASUS STRIX 1070 which drives my currently nuts.
Modern graphiccards with their zero fan speed - nice idea, not so nice when you hit 50°C on idle and the card goes on/off/on/off all the time.
Using the MSI Afterburner to...
That's exactly my problem - all shops here in Austria/Germany who have it in stock are above 600€, and the availabilty changes on daily base. https://geizhals.at/asus-rog-strix-geforce-gtx-1070-oc-90yv09n0-m0na00-a1450613.html?hloc=at
Didn't check the renewal market, with these prices the cards...
Just got a reply from cablemod - their guys cannot build the cables so that the other retention clip is on the opposite side. Bummer, looks like i'll have to do that by myself.
