    3 PSU's - which to choose?

    Nice to have notification about reply this time - with no change in settings (?!). Yes, that was just making sure, not a question, as i'm system builder by hobby. Also "IT guy" on phone, but thats not my main job (too few clients), but with time i'm building client base for future plans. I'm...

    3 PSU's - which to choose?

    I choosed FSP 1000W Hydro Ti Pro. Actually i had no notification about reply on email, and bought it Thursday evening, it came Friday morning (!). So everything looks fine, its slightly smaller than bequiet, but what suprised me a lot is... coil whine on GPU - to be precise, lack of it. I...

    Steam Hardware Surveys - are they accurate?

    Yeah, I tried it before, but there were game-oriented surveys (and VR) and none of them actually send any info - these were stuck with sending information page.

    System Monitor Screen?

    I got my hands on old tablet, alcatel one touch. It got android 4.0.1 (not 4.1) and update to newer version (unofficial) breaks the WiFi. Is there any possibility to use this via Micro usb? I tried to get some apps, but most of them are for Android 4.1+

    Any case can hold two 360mm rads to exhaust air outside the case?

    Overall on thermaltake you can easily fit TRIPLE 480 but this is not the best case - acrylic side window, bad dust filters (these pass lot of dust inside), and cable management is hard. Nothing that can't get better with easy and cheap mods. On lian Li its easier to work, and less to mod it's...

    Any case can hold two 360mm rads to exhaust air outside the case?

    I can say hold on. Its all plastic on exterior. Case just *shoots* when warming up and cooling, even up to 40 minutes after system shut down. https://www.amazon.com/Thermaltake-Motherboard-Computer-Pre-Installed-CA-1Q6-00M1WN-00/dp/B08451HFPR...

    FS Silverstone Alta F1 + 2 x 180mm Silverstone AP183

    Also about question from private messages - case have no scrathes. Things that can be seen on 4th photo is just imprint. Aluminium, which was used for shell of this case have strange characteristics - if you touch case you wont leave visible fingerprint, but with time it become more visible -...

    SOLD Hello. I got for sell Silverstone Alta F1 case with dual 180mm Silverstone AP183 fans, mounted on bottom. There is no default fans in case (that were loud and one was damaged). I had put silver foil on one side panel, to make hiding cable mess easier - it can be easly taken off with...

    should i upgrade my cpu to match my 6800xt?

    Playing on skylake CPU may not be THAT bad, 6800XT is overkill for FHD. That said, there are more benefits from more cores in CPU, and in FHD, CPU may be the bottleneck (there is always bottleneck, no matter what you do, otherwise you would have unlimited number of frames per second) - but if...

    should i upgrade my cpu to match my 6800xt?

    Try to find used 5600X (many people will sell, wanting to upgrade to 7000 series), get new Motherboard, RAM can be used (recommending 3600Mhz CL14 - it's really worth it, if you set IF to 1:1:1. You can sell old parts, but I would just hide them somewhere, with time buy some small GPU with 4GB...

    ASRock and MSI

    I won't reccomend it. Many says it's fine, it's only allocation memory that shows more than 8GB VRAM, but let's just take facts: - more new games will utilize UE5 engine and many other RAGE, and other engines, requirements are still going up - lots of games from consoles will be ported not from...

    ASRock and MSI

    I can guarantee you won't regret MSI 6800XT unless you want to apply some RGB scheme other than default with some undervolting in mind - MSI Center (soft needed for Mystic Light) is resetting power limit and zero rpm feature in AMD drivers. But thats the only downsides. No coil whine - which is...

    MSI land on my black list. Reason? MSI CENTER.

    To be honest I have no idea. But CORE and BLACK looks identical, only difference is cheaper components on PCB and less OC possibilities on CORE.

    MSI land on my black list. Reason? MSI CENTER.

    For me Corsair, Seasonic, BeQuiet, Thermaltake, SilentiimPC had the issue. Plus I see comments on YT under my video, that a lot of people have same problem and only with XFX CORE variants. I completely lost trust in this company. 3 cards in the row with same problem is too much to be coincidence.

    Steam Hardware Surveys - are they accurate?

    He'll, it's not accurate. Not to mention people who is not taking part in the survey (clicking "cancel"), or simply noting is popping out on their machines, but I found very tricky way of how this works. Officially this survey pop out random, but I don't believe in miracles, and that survey...

    MSI land on my black list. Reason? MSI CENTER.

    I control fans in BIOS, but have PWM controller powered by SATA, i use it for fan testing, it got knob to control PWM. But LED control is nightmare for most manufacturers, and people keep saying "you dont like it? Turn it off". If they would know its not that simple.... Having different brand...

    Hi . I wanted to present you my story, but it would take too long - in short, i WAS fan of MSI - in terms of hardware/software - it was least problematic above all Gigabyte and ASUS, till now. So you decide to choose hardware for your PC? You got whole list of all possible configs - but if you...

    XFX 6800XT custom cooling (Why Manufacturers use 3 FANS?)

    I swapped fans again, temps are best ever, but I guess it's mostly because if ati-sag handle, and to be precise - the place it hold the GPU. Anti-sag handle, hold GPU right in the middle right now. I have noticed, whole heatsink holds on mostly near the GPU die, near the power inputs it's just...

    XFX 6800XT custom cooling (Why Manufacturers use 3 FANS?)

    It's been long time, and lot have happen. I had to change case from Silverstone Alta F1, as it almost killed RTX 3080 TUF - there is no sensor over back VRM (closer to video outputs) but noticed compression of thermopad there and RMA did not helped. So I swapped GPU to XFX 6800 XT, but this time...

    Did GeForce Partner Program really ended?

    We all remember what it was, and we should not forget. I personally think, some brands, MSI for example still have some deal with Nvidia. ASUS, too. Why and I touching this topic? I was looking for best RX 6800XT, I choosed XFX Merc319 CORE, and that was mistake - I had 3 of bad batch cards...

    ASUS RTX 3080 TUF 10GB LHR - unpleasant RMA experience.

    I sold it. Right now I'm using XFX Speedster MERC 6800XT - cool, quiet, and much better - it gave me 100% pass on 3D Mark stress test (20 loops) - even RTX 3080 at stock settings had 98,6. I even get "Rock Solid" achievement on Steam. Closing thread, won't buy any NV anymore. EDIT : i waited...

    ASUS RTX 3080 TUF 10GB LHR - unpleasant RMA experience.

    I ask you a very simple question - do i look like devastator? Do i like to damage hardware? Answer for both - NO. When i was setting fan curve i was making one hour test (60 minute) in loops 3D mark with that curve (65%). Then day after, i was using furmark. I had 102 degree on memory, and very...

    ASUS RTX 3080 TUF 10GB LHR - unpleasant RMA experience.

    As I said before, temps was lower for 6 months from buy. I check hardware every 3 months so it's easy to know when it started to produce more heat, and all seems to be termopads/thermal compound stabilizing. But increasing VRM temps can cause to memory get also more heat, as these are nearest...

    No i have, and its clearly visible proof. I cant return it - there is no possibility in PL law that would let me do this, we have 14 days from buy to return. You think when i open the card, that was tortured one week, and before that was used for 8 months, only one termopad will need to be...

    ASUS RTX 3080 TUF 10GB LHR - unpleasant RMA experience.

    Opening card, changing anything under heatsink is visible, plus risk of damaging warranty seal. Changing fans is not risky, as I swapped back to original and there is no sign of opening. It's not BS, but was working solution for 4 cards I had and much less risky about warranty. Who the hell are...
