I know. Same if you crossflash two different SKUs in Nvidia lineup. Not sure why you put in 6800XT. The vbios link I posted was for Liquid Devil 6900 XT https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/232536/powercolor-rx6900xt-16384-210318-1 Maybe you thought about something different? Or maybe I didn't fully understood what you meant with Cross-flashing 6900XT vBIOS to 6800XT. And you have the 6900XT. -

I'm not so sure this is an good deal. This card cost 1,633.88 USD here home without the dreaded tax. Take account that Norway prices is awful. And the ordinary price in the shop say is $2,153.63 is just dumb. This Inno3D isn't a $2,153.63 card. Not at all. Looks like a fake discount or their ordinary MSRP price for this card is blown up in the sky and isn't real. -

Tried all earlier GPUTweak software from Asus? Should work. Or the Gpu you have isn't fully compatible with this OC tool. Weird you don't see the voltage slider. Edit. Why MSI Afterburner suddenly work..... Same with some older graphics card with lacking voltage control in MSI. Once you install GPU Tweak you have the chance also in MSI Afterburner. Same with older Maxwell card thats destoyed with newer nvidia drivers. So common knowledge. Weird, Yes. -

Same problem with many cards. Not sure why MSI Afterburner and EVGA Precision sink in quality. Sometimes the GPU Tweak software from Asus is the only option. And how long will it takes before Evga takes down their GPU tweak software or just don't update anymore.... Ready to try grab a Matrix? Bidding opens in the ROG Matrix Charity Auction on Tuesday, September 26, with the final bids accepted on October 10, 2023. Good luck with any bids, (folks) @Mr. Fox by Mark Tyson - Wed, Sep 20, 2023 NVIDIA CEO Autographs An ASUS ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 4090 For Charity Auction ASUS and Make A Wish International have clubbed together to launch a special graphics card auction. The highly anticipated ASUS ROG Matrix RTX 4090 is the prize, and a cherry on this deliciously powerful cake is that it bears the gold-inked signature of the NVIDIA CEO, Jensen Huang Greed....... The gold-inked signature is worth it's weight in gold, LOOL Or you could try grab this Limited version from Msi... Green and black. Not the usual Red and black from Msi. But don't be angry if you feel you are scammed with the low 128 Mem bus. It's what it is, HaHa Some might question why MSI opted for the “Limited Edition” label for a lower-tier model, but it’s evident that MSI is emphasizing its collectible appeal over sheer performance.

This is the problem. All too many put weight into the reviews. They in short get wrong advices. And that's sad. New driver out for your AMD card. New is always better. Don't forget that. So try it🤩 AMD Radeon Software Adrenalin 23.9.2 Asus tells us why now is the time for a $3,200 liquid metal GPU..... 1 to 2000 cards will be made. In short Asus have vacumed up all the better bin from their shelves for a limited run. For the very few. For $3200 USD. All the rest will get the new revised voltage capped AD102 silicon. Nice. -

I'm sick of editors that do HW reviews... Do they even know what they talk about? And do they know how LM works? And do they know why many HW manufacturers use nickelplated copper? Surely, this is beyond their tech knowledge. Mor hunged up in bling bling and pretty. Under the Hood For those of you who prefer to skim the images rather than actually read what we’ve written, the primary key points we covered above are here in picture form. Of particular note is how the multi-layer cooling solution has been designed, as well as how much hardware is available on the power side of things. Suffice to say that no corners have been cut, no shortcuts taken, nothing but what you would expect from anything that comes under the famous Republic of Gamers umbrella, and particularly anything that brings back their famous Matrix name to the market. Conclution. Nonetheless we’ll cover as much as we can for everyone. Let’s get the obvious things out of the way. Is the Matrix Platinum the highest performing of the RTX 4090 cards we’ve reviewed? Yes, yes it is. Is it the coolest running RTX 4090? Just about – the ASUS Strix was similarly cool. It’s not quite the fastest average clock speed we’ve seen, a title that belongs to the MSI Suprim X Overclocked, although naturally it’s worth mentioning that the real world performance metric still belongs to the Matrix. However, as there always is with products like this, the Matrix Platinum comes with some caveats. Yes it’s the fastest of the RTX 4090 cards, and thus is the fastest on the planet. It is only a bit better than the next best though. Consistently, but not in the kind of way where you could consider it a theoretical RTX 4090 Ti or RTX 4095. It’s a very good version of something we’ve already seen and seen way cheaper. Similarly the cooling is excellent, but the redesigned pump has a bit of a whine we don’t recall hearing on their Strix LC model. If you went for a full 3rd party cooling solution such as a complete EK kit you could get it for less than the cost of it plus a reference RTX 4090 when compared to the Matrix. Okay there is work, and nerves, involved but it’s not beyond most of us. https://overclock3d.net/reviews/gpu_displays/asus-rog-rtx-4090-matrix-platinum-review/16/ -

You are sure the voltage slider isn't in the sub menus? This works well with older versions on slightly older cards so maybe it doesn't work with the new and shiny cards from AMD? GPU Tweak is the only tool I could change everything as etc extended voltage on some older AMD cards. Both the tool from Msi and Evga failed hard. So you are correct, credit to ASUS for this one. -

Nice some fix their failures 🙂 But if you get the wrong hardware you can't fix it. With some MB you are screwed with only two PCIe 8-pin connectors for the GPU. Once again a useless new PSU if you have the new Radeon cards with more than two power connectors. Soon nobody can buy a new PSU if they went the Red side of tech. The new 12VHPWR connector standard have destoyed the way an PSU should looks like. There is a few MB that need 3 PCIE connectors (Cpu and MB). All you have left is one or two for your GPU. Nice. Is this what we call innovation? XPG Core Reactor II 850w ATX 3.0 80 PLUS Gold PSU Review As far as performance and price goes, our review showed it's hard to look past XPG's new Core Reactor II 850w ATX 3.0 80 PLUS Gold power supply.

1.25v and 1500W only from the card. Not sure you want that in 3DMark or your games, LOOL Add 50mv more for 1.3v and you may see 1700W from the card before it die, HaHa -

I'm 100% sure it was about the costs. They could spend a bit less on the fancy alu block or reduce the profits. And the card haven't needed to be so fancy. Aka they could easly cut the cost on the card. And if they sold the card at 2500/2600$ they would still make an decent profits. -

If I remeber correctly. This cards is 3 slot. Why? Because the way they have implemented the bling bling? I mean I saw one that tested LM vs thermal paste. He got 1C improvement with LM. And regarding ASUS LM implemention. Why use pure copper for the cold plate and not nickel plated copper? Too expensive make it for a 3200$ graphics card? From the comments section... I asked ASUS for a statement about the liquid metal / nickel plating situation. Here is the answer: ASUS has gathered a lot of experience with liquid metal on our Highend Gaming Notebooks and we have done a lot of intense testing, so we are confident that ROG MATRIX RTX 4090 will last for many years to come. This is why we have an extended warranty (for example up to 5 years in Germany) and we will always service our customers. Is this a JOKE? Then why do Asus use nickelplated copper for their Jokebooks that come with liquid metal? See 11:09 This is their cheapo Strix OC -

Wow.... Asus want 1200$ above their already overpriced ROG GeForce RTX 4090 Strix OC. Or the double price of the 4090 MSRP. Nice. Here home... Above 4200$ with the dreaded Norwegian tax. 4090 ROG GeForce RTX 4090 Matrix Platinum comes at an MSRP of $3200 The PCB design is virtually identical to that of the ASUS STRIX, the monitoring circuits for the additional temperature and power sensors cost a few dollars. I expect adding an second 12VHPWR connector on the PCB would mean a full re-design of the Strix PCB. That would further increase the price point. Manual power limit increase tops out at 600W.

Red vs blue processors in Starfield. This isn't about the bugs with Ryzen and the AMD optimized game😁 As I said before... Nvidia can't make AI cards from their low/mid tier graphics chips. Forgot this one with Asus. My oldes son also had the ASUS ROG Strix Arion SSD Enclosure. While I was in vaccation I got an message from him on my phone. He connected the ASUS SSD Enclosure to his Jokebook. A nice and ugly electronic smell come out from the USB-C connector on the Enclosure and the whole box stopped work. No sign of life from the box or the flashy bling bling lights. Dead. Yup, Double Asus failure within one month. Fun with todays modern tech. Yes, I won't buy this fancy box. All to expensive and I don't like how it panned out. This bling bling box cost from 50% more and upwards vs an more vanilla SSD Enclosure box... Best SSD and Hard Drive Enclosures -

First. Asus should have never ever used Micron mem chips on Strix in the 10xx series. And as a footnote... 99% of all reviews of 1070 Strix use Samsung memory dies. And Asus didn't offer maxed out TGP as some other 1070 flagship cards. Why do that with their best xx70 cards they have in their huge portefolio of cards? Same cooler and pcb as their xx80Ti cards but castrate their flagship in same way as the other brands cheapo low end cards from same SKU series. That's perverse! The cards cooling can easly handle 350W power consumption. And why not offer dual 8-pins power connectors as som of the better xx70 cards? Because they wanted to cut cost? 2nd. Not even sure Msi will bother with 2 mem boards. Why did they scrap that models for firs gen Z790 boards? They cater to the gamer kids. And why didn't MSI want offer 600W vbios? Why did they take away/remove the first vbios version that come with 600W and replaced it with vbios that offer lower TGP than the Nvidia FE cards for their best high end cards? I don't trust whats coming from MSI. They are equal disgusting as ASSUUUS. 3rd. More stupid from ASUS... https://videocardz.com/newz/asus-rog-strix-rtx-4090-eva-02-edition-debuts-in-us-at-2299 This is perverse! ASUS spread their so called better* chips on 3 different versions of same Strix cards now. With the Matrix it will be 4 cards. Then you have the water cooled cards. So the best binned chips will be spread around 6 different high end 4090 cards. ASUS has become the worst HW lottery you can think of. $2299 for a ugly card is awful. Maybe they want $300 more because very few want the Red Ugly card. But what do I know After seeing retail in China, the ASUS ROG STRIX Evangelion GeForce RTX 4090 was finally listed on Newegg, with a premium "$2,299" price tag. To give you an idea about the variant's pricing, it is almost a bump of 70% from the GPU's original MSRP. Yup, 70% premium for a Puke show. The world have gone crazy. Lack of good options is awful. And this now apply especially for MB and GPU's. I feel almost as I have went back to Jokebooks aera. Btw. Guru3d have destoyed their webpage with the new updated awful modern design.... Disgusting https://www.guru3d.com/ New or newer is always better @ryan🤮🤢🤮 -

My oldest son bought an ROG Thor 1200W Psu a month before my vacation. Dead on arrival 1 day after he started use it. Weird problems as no boot and suddenly shut downs. No consistency. I advised him to test with his older PSU. The machine started work properly again. I said… Buy an BeQuiet or an Corsair 1500i. Sad there is so few good 2 mem slots board. But not keen on Gigabyte. And Evga is a no go. What have we left? Assuuuus. I’ll take the chance on the coming Z790 Apex refresh. No other options I can see. My oldest son will get my board and the 13900K for free because he took care of our dog while me and my wife were in Canary. What other options do I have? And I don’t want jump on a old Z690 Unify-X from MSI. Soon it will be harder find good options for desktops. Almost as the BGA junked jokebooks. Aka no options. Only trash. -

Should be no problem dance with them😀 A bad sample of 1070. The Strix ain't near my old dead Gigabut. And I got the Micron memory.So, thanks Asus. I forgot ask what mem this 1070 had. I take that on me. But not the loosy cores. Oh'well. I can still sell it on the used market for the same as I paid for it.

Yep, I have class, LOOL Hope you do an better cleaning job with your pc, HaHa You can easly see how much bigger the 4090 is vs the 1070 Stix if you look at the missing PCIe brackets. And the Asus 1070 Strix are in same size and with same cooling as for the 1080Ti Strix. The older gaming flagship from Nvidia. Looks more like a baby card in the chassis.

I think the review editors on reviews sites sinking lower and lower. They look on things that's not important for the products they review. And the consumers will eat everything with their eyes. 1th. Say hello to Asus ROG 1070 Strix OC. My older 1070 died so I had to replace it with a new old for the GPU collection. I enjoy old hardware and you even can use for gaming. I don't need the new and shiny games as etc Starfield. Regarding this new game.. Looked on my sons gaming of mentioned game. He is not impressed of the game and textures (how it looks). Neither is me. So new doesn't always mean better 😀 The card looks as in good shape. Haven't tried it but I expect it will work. @electrosoft For you you old man😄 Regarding 2nd. That's great news. But sad so many developers can't or don't see it themself. Maybe they don't bother with it, I don't know. So nice Martin will takes care of it. Good job bro Fox. -

See post #9😵 Read.... From the videocardz article. "Reviewers may soon face a dilemma when determining which graphics card has the most charming appeal". Maybe we are too old?😁 The charming appeal will soon be much more important then how the products functioning or works. In short.... Same as for modern laptops. Yup. The end is near. Once asus have tested out their new stupidity in China... It will come to the rest of the world @Talon And all other hardware manufacturer brands will follow Asus. ASUS Is Launching A GeForce RTX 40 Card With No Power Cables, How It Works If you pay any attention to technology news, particularly on this site, you may recall reading about ASUS' interesting power-delivery experiment one of the few times we've reported on it before.

Hmmm. What can be in the box with the nice shiny all black crocs on top bro @electrosoft 😬 Could it be a ROG Strix OC or could it be an empty greyish package?🤔 Here's @electrosoftand @ryan after seeing this post.... LOOL And here's very good news for Nvidia😄 ASUS Readies A Flood of Custom Radeon RX 7800 XT & RX 7700 XT GPUs ASUS has plans to go all out with AMD's Navi 32 GPUs as the company has listed 64 variants under the Radeon RX 7800 XT & RX 7700 XT lineup. Yup... You can't make any AI chips for the AI bonza from castrated 4060/4060Ti or 4070 chips. And I guess Nvidia also have a flood of them🙂 And quite a few gamer kids have seen that the AMD Radeon cards is prefered for Starfield for now. Hmm... I wonder when Nvidia start push the 4070 prices closer to 500$ price target. Will it be before or after Christmas holidays? And what with the prices for the bus and mem crippled 4060 and 4060Ti ? How nice wouldn't it be with a 4090 with this design bro @Mr. Fox Yooo have started droool already?🤩 Yes, a vertical mount will be a must, HaHa (Edit. See also post #9)🤮 Now AMD and their AIC partners have to flood the market with their 7800XT cards. Only this way we will see a change from the Green goblins. Let em have some competition. Millions will buy this new AMD optimized game forwards. -
Nope. Haven't had the time. Now summer vaccation. And lack of time looking more after it. But I need a new KB. Or better say two 🙂

Analyzing Starfield’s Performance on Nvidia’s 4090 and AMD’s 7900 XTX ChipsAndCheese took a good look at the game's performance on both manufacturers' current flagship cards, RTX 4090 and RX 7900 XTX, highlighting how AMD's card provides better performance at all resolutions, although the gap gets narrower at higher resolutions...... In summary there’s no single explanation for RDNA 3’s relative overperformance in Starfield. Higher occupancy and higher L2 bandwidth both play a role, as does RDNA 3’s higher frontend clock. However, there’s really nothing wrong with Nvidia’s performance in this game, as some comments around the internet might suggest. Lower utilization is by design in Nvidia’s architecture.
