    Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master won't power on - (temporary) solution

    I have not been on this board in a long time, but I am so glad that when I googled "gigabyte aorus x570 master won't turn on", this thread is the top search result. I too have seen this problem after 18 months. The first thing I thought was probably the psu, and I was horrified when a psu...

    Something to stand a fan on inside the case??

    i am completely lost at what you mean sorry :confused: When a computer fan blows, do the air go straight forward from the middle of the rotor? or at the edges of the blades? i'm trying to envision the airflow.

    Something to stand a fan on inside the case??

    I had a quick measure, a 140mm fan isn't tall enough to reach the gap in between the 2 GPUs. Do you have any ideas how I can raise the 140mm radiator stand higher? about 2 to 3 inches taller?

    Catalyst 15.2 crossfire, where is temperature control?

    It's Hawaii. I have a Gigabyte Windforce R9 290X OC paired with R9 290 OC, as they no longer make the 290 OC. Nothing bad about fans rpm hitting 100% right? I expect the temp to inprove once I set up a fan to blow in between the cards and out the pci slot at the back.

    Something to stand a fan on inside the case??

    Another question, is there a PCI slot cover with holes through them to fit the 800D? Or is it safe to leave a PCI slot completely open at the back?

    Catalyst 15.2 crossfire, where is temperature control?

    I just ran some tests on fan speed. Ran Tomb Raider on 3440x1440 mostly on ultra, TressFX, 2xSSAA etc. ran 60fps, smooth as a nut. GPU1 reached 79 and GPU2 73. Fan speed though lol. GPU1 ~75%, GPU2 ~35%. I find I saw absolutely no difference with FXAA/SSAA vs off completely. Don't think I...

    Catalyst 15.2 crossfire, where is temperature control?

    I'm not sure when exactly target temperature control dissappeared, I hadn't really gamed for a while and only going through everything after setting up a crossfire.

    What happens when you crossfire a r9 290x with a r9 290?

    Gigabyte has discontinued its Windforce R9 290s, so I've bought a used R9 290X instead. What will happen? Will the 290X run as a 290s in crossfire mode? Because it's same manufacturer and same factory overclock, gpu/mem cycles are exactly the same, only more stream processors in the 290x. I...

    Something to stand a fan on inside the case??

    See picture for what I mean. Basically I want to stop as much hot air from flowing up in a crossfire setup as possible. I don't know if there's anything I could make the fan stable? Presumably I could blue tac it to the plastic cover behind, but don't fans need some space behind it to...

    How important is a curve on 34" 21:9 ultrawide monitors?

    My AOC U3447PQU finally arrived. Now I can answer the question for myself. Not very much. Maybe its because I've become very accustomed to using triple monitor set up. When watching films, the field of view is freakin awesome. the edges of screen take up a lot of my peripheral vision...
