No, it is same cable. I just put it in other pcie slot and it worked.
And before I put it on riser, card was perfectly working in that top slot - and nothing happened to it during transferring motherboard from one case to another. So I think it could be something in bios to prevent riser being...
So, new build in Phanteks P600s, using riser cable... and after night long leak test there is no image on display. Was worried that gpu got damaged when assembling a block.
Then I did some testing with riser cable (original Phanteks one listed as accessory in manual). It doesn’t work in top...
I was switching from Alu loop and Thermaltake case to Phanteks P600s and copper stuff...
Aquacomouter gpu block manual said, that I should use paste in memory and pad on vrms. But I wanted to do better - so I did put thermal pads - and top notch ones from Thermal Grizzly- on memory and VRMs...
Ordered the SSD. Thanks for input.
Its fast, though doesn't feel that much faster IRL. But no SATA data / power cables inside case, as I removed older SSDs, make it up for any other issue
My S2716DG is running fine and I don't have issues with it, but after playing a bit with different 21:9 it's just different beast, not only for gaming, but for my home office too, as I can easily put few browser windows word and such around and see everything on them
I also now play mostly...
My 500 GB 840 is not big enough anymore, and I want something bigger. Right now, the Intel 660p 2TB is at about 990 PLN here (roughly $260) - it makes it cheapest nvme drive I can get- about $100 cheaper from MX500 2TB - and same price as 970 Evo Plus 1TB
Now, I use PC for gaming (and mostly...
Well, that price.will get me both PS5 and Xbox Scarlet. With games like Horizon, FC5 or Origins looking at X Enhanced at 55" 4k better than on 1080 ti@1440p@27" I said goodbye to "master race"
1080 ti is still enough for the games I play, will be playing on PC - strategies and some RPGs, for...
1300 euro for reference version in here...
F.U NV. You can get here One X and 4K TV for that and still have spare
I hope AMD and Intel will think of something in return, because we need competition badly
Is it possible - similar to Ps4 - set the Xbox that way, that only chat goes through headset and all the game effects go through home cinema?
Can't find that option in menu (on newest software) and I hope that's possible, so I can use my phone's headphones for voice chat, while everything...
Just remember, that it will only work with reference GPUs. Also when extending, getting 2nd rad is basically a must - that single slim 240 won't let you OC cpu and gpu
Since installation it works like charm. No leaks, no issues, everything is cool and quiet and OC well. I' g I took the plunge. When I'll flush it next year for cleaning, I'l get some angled fittings though and improve my tubing.
War of the Overlord
Total War: Warhammer 1 with some DLCs, so I can play the big campaign on combined old and new world map (there is free DLC, that makes that happen)
Got One X, and games look great. We'l, i al cured me of saving money for PC parts, because Forza on proper 55" HD 4K TV looks better than on pc. Also, playing on large TV with 4k and home cinema beats the 27" 1440p and headphones.
So yup, XOX becomes now primary gaming platform for me and PC...
I'll be keeping the original fans for a bit. Those RGB fans, bought separately have crazy prices and would spend more than I paid for the case on them.
I even left those front 2x 140 fans and screwed my front rads under them, while keeping the 2x120s in behind the rad.
