haha i think he was referring to the RTX 60 series, i.e. the 6090 😄

there was a follow-up from Jay in the comments that AB newest version added support for Lightning voltage control, so should be possible to push that limit up further. no idea if hes gonna do a follow-up video on this though... and no, im not defending that 5k+ USD card LOL LOL i saw that video yesterday via Louis Rossmann and thought of bro @Papusan right away 😄 well THAT should be interesting... if theyre ever gonna do a public statement on this, that is. good that the community has surely made a gazillion local copies of that vBios (myself included), so we dont really care about any takedowns 😛 say wut....what was that about? armed robbery or smth? any details available? thats crazy! altho i must say i dont know how i feel about starting a frigging gofundme after a family member was murdered....dunno if its just me but that leaves a bad aftertaste in my mouth....

LOL stability e-peen, has it really gotten to that?! 😄 i can only speak for myself, especially for RAM tuning, stability is key in all the apps you are personnally using on a regular basis. i have found for my usage profiles 3x runs of anta777 absolut via tm5 ensures 100% stability for all my use cases, including transcoding, gaming and work related stuff 🙂 but then again, im a 24/7 stable settings kinda guy, havent done any bleeding edge benchmark stability runs in ages 😄

niiice, nifty lil tool. would it work on other mobos as well? or asrock specific? wtf 😮 i wonder how many IMCs he had to bin for that RAM speed (and how stable it is).

nice, more testing to do! 😄

What grade are you in? Are your classmates really mean to you, or is it a parenting issue? lol i wouldnt even bother replying to such comments 😄 huh, nice lil side bonus if the WVPII decreases coil whine on the gpu 😄 u planning to test any of the 800+W vbios versions? or sticking to gigachad?

now were talking indeed! DDR5-7600 CL32 stable baby! usually id get CL38+, finally a good mount 😄 maybe the delid helped here too 😛 timing tuning ongoing...

yep my thoughts currently. id be highly interested to check out the 1kw lightning vbios, but i wager that hasnt been dropped yet? ill do my rounds over at TPU 😛 ok kool both the 800 and 1000W lightning versions have been dropped: 800W https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/281640/281640 https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/281693/281693 1000W https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/281649/281649 https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/281650/281650 https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/281692/281692 2500W https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/281792/281792

speaking of, any indications that the lightning vbios has leaked yet? 😛 im guessing they dont have any reason to upgrade to quad channel anytime soon, what with DDR5 (and likely also 6) doubling the amount of internal "channels" with each new gen. btw, resolved the bad paste job, turned out that the Thermal Grizzly AM5 High Performance Heatspreader was the culprit, or rather its missing z height vs the stock heatspreader. the Arctic LF3 coolplate doesnt make proper contact with it, even though im using the TG shortened offset mounting kit. ive tried twice now with crappy results. so its back to the regular AM5 retention mechanism incl the stock heatspreader, but at least now i got a nice clean delid with TG conductonaut extreme on it. done with disassembling my hardware for now, back to RAM tuning! 😄 on another note: received and email from TG, seems like a new firmware update is out for the WV Pro II, including first official version of the accompanying software, nice 🙂

no worries, ive done this for years with superb results 🙂 just make sure the pads are the same brand / type and are squished well together so that they make good contact to each other 🙂

welp its been a while....and currently with the AI RAM apocalypse going down its even more difficult to track down specific sticks.

yup, this forum has barely breached 2000 users, many of whom are just ghost / lurker accounts with no real activity. that and the fact that laptops nowadays are super locked down, both from a hardware (everything soldered), as well as firmware / software perspective. many of the former NBR players have since switched to desktops and only use laptops on the side as tools, but not really for tinkering anymore (i count myself among them).

ha not with me they didnt! upgraded all the way from a 6700K to a 9900K in my Clevo machine 😄 suckaZ! and big thx to bro @Prema for that one 😛

youre probably referring to Zen 6? AM6 is still waaay waaaaay waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out... zen 6 on AM5 is basically set, with Zen 7 having a decent probability of also still being on AM5. so AM6 will only come our way once Zen 8 drops. Zen 6 = 2026/27 Zen 7 = 2027/28 Zen 8 / AM6 = 2029+? thatll be quite a solid run for my X670E platform here, 2022 to 2029, nice 😄 btw ill need to check my LM / TIM paste jobs, core deltas are waaaay too high for my taste. im guessing my LM application was a bit too thin this time around.

my dudes, we can consider ourselves lucky to have covered all our bases with regards to hardware. our 4090s/5090s will stay at the top of the pack until 2028, lets just hope they dont go up in flames / melt until then 🤣 boy am i glad that i got my 32TB of pcie4 m.2 ssds plus took care of the ram binning with 10+ kits back in the summer of last year. prices were at rock bottom then ("good old times"). and even though i overpaid for my 5090 at +25% above minimum pricing (3300€ vs. 2650€ incl. 19% VAT and shipping), a whopping two thirds of it (2100€) was made up by the sale price of the 4090 😅 besides, even when the suprim currently IS available, its offered at 4000+€, absolutely insane... long story short: i guess compared to other unlucky users who are currently planning on building a rig, were pretty well off at least for the time being...always good to count and be generally aware of your blessings 🫠 mixed news on the ram tuning front: still cannot reach anything above 7600 stable but at 7600 im now reaching way way tighter timings than before, actually best ive had thus far overall on this mobo. final results pending, as u all know ram tuning takes quite a while...
