I'm running a GTX 2080 with a Xeon 5650 on water. 4.4ghz 24/7. I game in 4k for the most part and I can say that there is no bottleneck. In fact most games consume ~20% of all cores under load (far cry 5 max settings). Which other games are you curious about, I'll try them.

http://forum.gigabyte.us/thread/5197/2080-gaming-higher-power-limit?scrollTo=23648&page=11 ^^ Kind of cool. Have a gigabyte RTX 2080 windforce with an EK WB strapped on. Will be trying this bios tomorrow and benching.

What bios are you running on the X58 Sabertooth?

Hi all Reviving this thread from the dead. I am presently using a 2310 with 4x 3tb drives in raid 5. This controller has worked really well for me for years. OCE allowed me to upgrade my array from 4x 1.5tb drives one at a time to 3tb drives. I am on an x58 Sabertooth board (tylersburg...

Ya? Just cool the CPU and GPU? Or add a north bridge block? Anyone think I'll need to worry about mofsets?

Hey everyone. My faithful gigabyte x58 ud4p crapped out on me the other day. I deconstructed my loop in my 800d. Mounted the oem heatsinks and couldn't get it to boot for me on a testbench. Its a gonner. Ive applied for an RMA with gigabyte to see if they have something comparable in their...

Great suggestions, guys. I passed them along to my friend and he might try them. There's probably marginal performance difference between 667 with tighter timings that the board is forcing and 800 at stock timings.

Hey Guys. Helping out a friend upgrading an older AM2+ system upgrade. He has dropped in a 95watt x6 cpu that works with the latest bios update and 4x4gig cp6400 dimms. This is the board: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2758#ov This is the ram ...

How is everyone missing that netflix is pushing a compressed codec of sorts for 4k house of cards on a 25mbps stream? That kind of bandwidth is reasonable to me. The video quality destroys any 1080p bd content. Im not discrediting the fact that tech improves as time progresses but 4k is here...

Just like to chime in here guys. Seems to be much misinformation going on. I just picked up a 55'' 4K samsung set and i got it for about $1200 from costco. It does do 4k at 60hz 4:4:4 and it looks apesh*t. It does support hdmi 2.0 on all 4 of its imputs and is getting along swimmingly...

I still swear by ghost in a PE environment. Its old school but never fails me.

Indeed. This is the [h]ardforum, no?;)

Yeah. I think this is the way to go. We'll look to track down a 95 watt chip at a decent price.

Hi. Thanks for sharing. What stepping is it? Is it a 95 watt chip?

This one. Ill see if i can get him to tell me what hw version it is. http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2758#ov

Hey guys. I fell off the AMD CPU train after upgrading my beloved operon 939 rig to nehalem. Have a friend with a decent setup but a low clocking dual core chip in a gigabyte AM2+ motherboard. He will end up using a corsair closed loop water cooling blocks with a 120mm fan in an htpc he has...

Anyone with the Gigabyte card think this will fit? http://shop.watercool.de/epages/WatercooleK.mobile/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/WatercooleK/Products/15550 officially watercool says "custom" but that pretty ambiguous to me.

If this is any indication, I should be ok. I dont game that much but was hoping to give gaming at 4k a shot. Figured id need two 290s to get a decent framrate at 4k. http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/radeon-r9-290-crossfire-review-benchmarks,4.html edit: i just found a good price on a...

Hey guys. Looking for some input on upgrading my gpus. Ive got a i7 980x gulftown cpu coming. Presently running 5850 xfire on h20. Got a 4ktv and I'm looking for some gpu recommendations. I'm looking to keep my water loop and have a pc power and cooling 750 watt psu. I'm thinking r290 xfire...

Thanks for the input, guys. Any flavor of sataIII controllers play nicely with gigabyte x58 mobos? I should be fine with one drive on the pcie 1x slot then, right?

I suppose the technicality that I am hung up on is this... One 480 gig drive on the sataII will give me 275megs/s but raid 0 would at least be double that on the ICH10, no? This way i can get near sataIII speeds with two ssds.

Hey guys. I am looking to grab two ssds like the OCZ ARC 100 drives and replace two mechanical drives I use to boot from that are presently in Raid0 on my ICH10. My mobo is a gigabyte x58 UD4P and has SATAII ports on it. I am presently using crossfire in 16x16x and have the last pcie 8x slot...

This is pretty much what I was looking to hear. Although the sound is annoying, I just want to know if my cards will last a little while. Thanks

Didnt even disable it, just didnt put it under load.

Wouldn't loading one card at a time and listening for sound be the same? I've done that and noticed that one card squeals louder than the other.

Thanks for the response. I have definitely listened to the specific places that I hear the high pitched noises. Its not my PSU. I can hear the cards individually as I load them.

Hello all. I am a [H] noob but will be working on upping my status/posts ASAP. Anyways, i just upgrade my aging 3870 xfire setup to some el cheap-o 5850s that I got here.... http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1514768&highlight=5850+tigerdirect&page=3 Before i get flamed for buying OEM...
