Nice snag man! Congrats! It really is the unicorn floating around out there. Looking forward to your hands on review and comparison to the 5080 variant you had before. If you can get the 2x16GB to run that's icing on the cake. WoW should run like a beast on that thing.

 

I was in MC the other day and they had a floor model Titan still out on display (285HX + 5090) so I had a chance to check out the 4k mLED display and it definitely looks nice and they let me run 3Dmark on it and give it a general whirl on desktop and surfing. I just prefer QHD and 18"+ displays on my laptops/portables. Definitely stays quieter than the 7945X3D MSI we both shared during normal usage but of course under meaningful stress it lit up like an Xmas tree but that's ok. I'm hoping you can tame the sound profiles on this one and have a good review of it overall for when I eventually buy it off of you for a slight discount down the road. 🤣

 

I'm curious how the actual internals compare vs the 7945HX3D + 4090 Raider too if you can spot any changes / upgrades.

 

Yeah, I was definitely surprised to see it. I want to take it apart and swap memory but there is a factory seal sticker in place. Its MSI warranty expires in September 2026 so I provided the B&H invoice and was told I can extend it by two years for $140. However I want to be charged and have the extension confirmed before I open it up. B&H did have an AllState warranty option but those are $500 for two years (no ADH included) and less likely it could actually get repaired if the mobo failed.

 

The stock memory is 2x32GB Hynix M-die dual rank. It actually was not stable at 6000MT JEDEC with VSOC 1.2v and like all of the new OEM ram I have seen is PMIC locked so no VDD/VDDQ beyond 1.1v. I am guessing / hoping the issue is just dual rank is harder on the IMC as the 2x16GB on the 5080 model had no problem running at 6000MT JEDEC.

 

I do know that all of the 2025 and newer Raider and Titan models have upgraded fans with more blades and are much quieter. I think they also tuned the fan profiles though as it seems like the fans are not ramping up and down as agressively as before. Supposedly these newer fans have the same shroud, connector and power spec so they can be installed in the old models as well to improve them which is nice. The 2025 also has a heatpipe to cool the Gen5 SSD which is good.

ok so i figured since im having so much fun with RE Requiem and it draws an insane amount of wattage ill test my current GPU cable connection thoroughly and provide you the summary for comparison / reference sake.

 

so total of 5 gaming sessions recorded with HWInfo64, threw out all data points below 95% gpu core load and anything below 600W for both total gpu power, as well as 12VHPWR only. that left me with approx. 7.5h of data with a monitoring frequency of 1s (27,215 data points total). the game was maxed out with RT and PT at 4K, no FG and DLSS set to Quality.

 

as mentioned before im rocking the matrix vbios as a daily driver with a 24/7 stable OC of 34Gbps vRAM and +130 on the core, that gives me gaming clocks in the range of approx. 3060 Mhz +/- 30. ambient temps are currently quite high, were talking about 27-28C in my little "dad corner" 😄 gpu core is in the range of 68-73C under load, vRAM hotspot a tad higher at 70-76C and GPU hotspot approx. 85C on avg. with short spikes up to 93-94C (top 10% are in the range of 88-90C).

 

FPS

avg 102.9

1%% low  72.4

0.1% low 67.8

 

Total GPU Power

avg 703W

10% high 761W

1% high 775W

MAX 799W

 

12VHPWR Power

avg 688W

10% high 744W

1% high 753W

MAX 758W

 

(interesting to see that as 12VHPWR wattage approaches the vbios limit at 800W, the gap to the total gpu power widens, thus the PCIe slot starts to draw more and more power, on avg. only 15W but the max spike is at 41W).

 

Max Delta Current across 6 pins

avg 1.06 A

10% high 1.99 A

1 % high 2.57 A

MAX 3.3 A

 

(stock setting for alarm in WVPII software is 4A)

 

Max Delta Current across 6 pins (%)

avg +11%

10% high +22%

1% high +29%

MAX +35%

 

(stock setting for alarm in WVPII software is +40%)

 

this is how it should be, with even the absolute max individual data points still below the alarm threshold (which only comes into play if you get repeated, sequential limit breaches in a row, so a single data point spike aint enough to trigger it).

 

this will provide a nice baseline once this cable inevitably gives out on me an ill need to test a fresh install / cable to compare 😄
