    Anyone try putting a fan on top of the 3090FE backplate WITHOUT heatsinks on top of the backplate to lower memory junction temps?

    Hi, Wanted to see if anyone tried to put a fan on top of the backplate of the 3090FE where the memory modules sit without putting heatsinks on top (like this: ). On my card, they got hot to the touch, and my options that aren't repadding or going on water are limited since I also rock a big CPU...

    10850k/Z490 adaptive question need some help!

    I was just chatting with someone on reddit via reddit chat. He explained it like this: Apparently with our board, anything under 5.3ghz even if you have anything written in the Vcore (custom voltage) on adaptive setting WILL eventually revert back to the specific voltage as indicated on the v/f...

    10850k/Z490 adaptive question need some help!

    Here's a testing step I did earlier today: 1) Go into MSI Z490 Bios, set to adaptive with 50x core multiplier for 5GHZ 2) In the CPU v-core, type in 1.3V 3) Save & boot into windows. Open up hwinfo, vcore only shows 1.25V (first red flag) 4) Shut PC down & boot into windows. Open up hwinfo...

    10850k/Z490 adaptive question need some help!

    So the 1.25V is what the mobo puts out on "Auto". So I guess it's that after a few reboots, the motherboard seems to ignore whats hardcoded in the CPU Vcore (1.28 for example) and defaults back to 1.25 or auto. Doesn't happen on fixed or override, only adaptive. I have a gut feeling its...

    10850k/Z490 adaptive question need some help!

    So the issue is this: In the CPU VCore setting, you can leave voltage on "Auto" or put in a manual number. If I set 50x multipler on the core (5ghz), the "auto" under load is 1.25. If I put lets say 1.29 manually in there, after a few reboot, it's back to 1.25V. It's almost like it's not...

    10850k/Z490 adaptive question need some help!

    Hi everyone. New overclocker here, had a question on 10850k/msi z490 unify mobo on the "adaptive" mode. My z490 board has two modes, adaptive and adaptive + override. My chip needs about 1.26V to get stable at 5.0GHZ all core. I've noticed a strange quirk on setting to adaptive mode. If I...
