    haha using a thermal pad on the CPU, crazy times we live in πŸ˜„ nah, the frame doesnt do much for temps, "maybe" 1 degree improvement, if not related to measurement error. its more for looks and/or easier thermal paste cleaning πŸ˜›

    what do you get when you combine bros @papusan and @mr. fox ? moderate climate πŸ˜‹

    hey dude, just saw your updates here, hows the 7950X3D treating you? Hope it hasnt gone up in smoke with all that SOC OV crap πŸ˜… also, can you recommend the thermalright secure frame? i am also eyeing it for easier thermal paste removal πŸ˜‹

    in the end, what counts is that we have lots of options to choose from πŸ™‚ whatever u go for, its always nice to have options. bad thing is when manufacturers artificially take that away...

    sometimes its less about gaming, but more about productivity. i have a dual monitor setup at work but use my 32 inch display at home for work, as well, dividing it up in two. can also be a cost factor, using two smaller displays might be cheaper than one huge monitor. as for TVs, the situation has gotten better, but latency might still be an issue here and there. also, its not everyone's thing to have a gigantic TV right in your face and taking up desk space hahaha. so yeah, might be lots of things πŸ™‚

    best of luck! keep us updated on your progress πŸ™‚

    another one finds his way back to the fold πŸ˜ƒ welcome back bud, ull definitely find a lot of familiars from the old NBR gang here 😁

    with the all soldered mobos the power delivery is usually designed for both cpu and gpu. so just cranking one of the two wont have much impact πŸ™‚ thats how they design rhat whole power boosting / balancing thing, as well, combine cooling and power capacities to use whatever is best in a specific scenario (gpu for gaming, cpu for productivity).
  9. jaybee83
    yup amperage limit, could be hard programmed into the firmware to protect the mobo VRMs. laptop power delivery is usually designed very tightly around the utilized hardware.

    impressive. what kinda downclocking, if any, do you see on CPU and GPU?
  11. jaybee83
    oh wow thats unexpected. here i thought that it would be as good as the previous Noctua 3070 edition...
  12. jaybee83
    agreed on the vRAM front. ive heard several game developers speak in the past weeks and the concensus is pretty much aligned: 12GB will BARELY get u by nowadays, with 16 GB being the sensible midrange option. 24GB as on the 4090 isnt even considered highend anymore, should only be viewed as upper midrange / performance tier... WE NEED MORE VRAM!
  13. jaybee83
    keep holding out as much as possible, teach those greedy bastards a lesson that we will not take such ridiculous pricing (says the guy with a 4090 build lulz) nope, still alive, but they axed it down going forward. for battlemage itll likely just be 1 sku in the midrange. but thats a good strat if u ask me, let them find their proper footing first, get the drivers fully ready, finetune hardware efficiency and then move slowly up n down the stack for future gens.

    nice, thats 96% of my 7950X at stock, quite impressive πŸ™‚ hows the cooling going with the 250W gpu and the 140W cpu? can u keep it under control?
  15. jaybee83
    much respect my man! tinkering away and enjoying some hardware fun while the war is raging close to you...make hardware mods, not war! πŸ™‚
  16. jaybee83
    its all about style, the noctua 4080 will sport the targeted brown / tan color theme 😁 plus itll be superior to any other gpu fan cooling out there hahaha afaik there is no noctua 4090 yet right?
  17. jaybee83
    haha niiiiice that is a bold choice! u should get Noctua on board as a sponsor for that build πŸ˜‰ now i really wanna see a build thread on this....
  18. jaybee83
    sounds fancy! you got a specific color scheme in mind with that case?
  19. jaybee83
    thats ok guys, back to the topic at hand πŸ™‚ its weird that ure getting a blackscreen with the 6700k, it should work out of the box. can u test it in another machine to make sure it works? sorry to hear about the 970M my friend...if youre interested i still have a 980M laying around with premamod vbios πŸ˜‰
  20. jaybee83
    welcome buddy! i am sure you will have tons of fun with your P771DM, enjoy! πŸ™‚
  21. jaybee83
    good to hear there are still ppl around to keep the NH55 lounge alive πŸ™‚ ill be giving my lady a ram upgrade for her upcoming bday to 2x32 GB at 3200 mhz, should be fun to see how far i can push those. on the current 3800 sticks i maxed out at 3500 gear 1 and 3800 gear 2 with the 12600 cpu in it. yeah thats exactly what im hoping for, better efficiency and binning on the 14th series, just what the doctor ordered for our NH55 machines πŸ˜‹
  22. jaybee83
    oh i sure hope i dont hit a mobo limitation too soon, but rather keep hitting CPU IMC and DIMM bottlenecks. i mean, i paid more than enough for the Asus X670E Extreme to be able and properly pull it forward while upgrading πŸ˜› so far its looking good, only the IMC holding us back. speculating to be able and upgrade my lady's machine to a 14900K down the line with some Prema magic.... πŸ˜„ but thats still way in the future hahaha
  23. jaybee83
    haha yeaaaah, im a bit of a data hoarder.... πŸ˜› please do tell us more.... build thread incoming? πŸ˜‰
  24. jaybee83
    curious to see if i can get tighter timings at 6200 Mhz with the G.Skill DDR5-8200 48GB kit im eyeing. also wanted to try to run "Gear 2" mode to check and see how high i could get the clocks without focusing on latency πŸ™‚
  25. jaybee83
    huh sounds like the forum has gotten more quiet overall? or is this just for the thread? the "townsquare" thread seems to be alive and kickin' tho, plus the membership numbers have gone up considerably since last i checked, so good signs πŸ™‚ besides, im sure other users might just be hibernating for a bit like i did / am doing ^^ not fully back, but might post a bit here and there. nothing to cry about with a 3060 my friend, i must admit my setup is overkill for (almost) everything i do hahaha. for video transcoding its a blast to be able and go through a full movie length clip in like 6-12 minutes via NVENC on the 4090, used to take me like 60-90 minutes on my 9900K previously ^^ plus crazy to see Control maxxed out being able to keep the 4090 in check, but at 4K with RT maxxed out and no DLSS its still chugging along at like 70-90 FPS πŸ˜„
