Bump

I just purchased an Asus Turbo RTX 2080. Thing is, they don't put a backplate on these cards. Anyways, I know some of you guys put waterblocks on these and have no use for the original backplate. So, I'm looking for one of these that will fit my card. Card in question is this...

These headphones are incredible! Some of the best on the market for music or gaming. These are the Premium version with 600 Ohm impedance. They are ready for some serious amplification, so beware. Sounded great with my Asus Xonar Essence STX. Comes with original travel case, gold adapter, and...

Used in great condition with original box, cables, accessories, and documentation. This is one of the best gaming monitors out there! NEW! ZeroFlicker™ For Visual Ease and Comfort 24” Widescreen LED Monitor Native Full HD 1920 x 1080 Resolution 144 Hz, Nvidia 3D Vision™ 2 Ready 1 ms (GTG)...

Naw, use butter. Or better yet, mustard.

Option 6 bro

Yeah, I tried to skimp on a PSU once.

I like my Evo 4g LTE. I ran Quadrant on it, and my roommate, who is in phone sales, said that it scored higher than any phone he had yet tested (like 3600 I think)

no need for newest version really, just let it run. I am pretty sure you'll see an error rather quickly. Also, make sure to reset your CMOS and in the BIOS make sure your RAM and CPU are getting the proper voltage(s)

Reset the CMOS (jumper the CMOS jumper for > 10 seconds with the power unplugged to the power supply). Try clearing out the residual power in the capacitors by clicking the power button with the power cord unplugged from the wall. Also, try using an old CRT monitor with a standard VGA cable...

Question: WHY ARE YOU YELLING?

I have exactly the same combo you are asking about. I enjoy it. The soundcard has enough juice at the high Impedence setting to drive them (and even sounds decent at the middle impedence setting which is 64 - 300 Ohm), and they sound nice with Dolby Headphone. I got my DT990's on sale for...

I think your best bet is optical out to home theater, but if you want the best soundcard, I'd say Asus Xonar Essence STX. Has a 600 Ohm Headphone amplifier.

Wow, this rig is gonna be sick

Xonar Essence STX. Has a 600 Ohm headphone amp. Would be perfect for you

Yes, they did. I believe it was the last best option for AGP users.

The safest option with SSD's is NOT to RAID them for lack of TRIM support and garbage collection (unless this has changed; somebody let me know). However, seeing that you already have one, you might just get a big HDD and use the 64Gb for only a few games and windows.

I think you best option would be to just run them in SLI, and just switch one to Physx before firing up Batman or whatever other game that supports hardware Physx.

Thank you. The others seem to think they'd contribute by ripping me.

double post

You won't need much TIM AT ALL. The core should have a very smooth surface without defects. The surface of your H80 will be the only surface that would need TIM to fill in the "cracks." edit: I might actually consider lapping the surface of that H80 to a mirror finish and running it TIMless!

The 690 will be hard to find I think. Besides, you have a beast of a machine as it sits. Keep them 'til you can't play Crysis 3

Yeah, after having posted that, I went back and looked at images and.....not so much alike.

looks like my old 2500 Barton

No wonder the GTX 680 stock was so low before. Nvidia was binning them for the 690s

Nice work. Make sure to give us before/after temps, and which TIM used. Also, I wonder if one can actually mount a HSF without the IHS like the old days?

Just sell your 2 gtx 680's and get 2 gtx 690's. Done

I have these. They kick ass, and that link I gave you is a GREAT price.

I wonder why no one mentioned this cooler before when I was searching for my GD04? Does anyone know if it'll fit in my case?

New Unified drivers (found HERE) have the new features like adaptive V-Sync and New AA modes and such. Give 'em a shot!

Asus Xonar series. The DG is decent and cheap. I went all out and got the Essnce STX though to support 600 Ohm headphones ;-)

Have you played Batman AC? It's one of the coolest PC games I have played in a while. I would cry if I had to play it on an XBOX or even with and AMD card (the game is neutered). Not having Physx takes away MUCH of the cool effects in the game. All I am saying is if you have the cards in your...

To the OP, this is [H]ard forum not [S]oftforum. Get the PCIe 3.0 board and be ready for whatever....

Well, on this site's review, they actually got higher FPS in Mafia 2 with one 680 set to perform Physx instead of SLI.

I also appreciate you doing these benches for all the Physx card naysayers out there. Also, what software is that that gives you the red text overlay?

No, just Batman really. That will give us a good indicator of Physx performance, and it's the best game for it.

Will you run benches with the 680 and with the 680 + 560 Ti for Physx?

Just started my Step-Up through EVGA for one of these. #168 in queue. Anyone had bad experiences with this program? Good?
