I've got 2 of these cards available. I'll be up front with you that they mined since this past January, so about 11 months but were temperature and thermally limited to maximize their efficiency. That also means there's ~2 years left on the transferable warranty. I had no stability issues...
I also got mine back in the good old days of 2005. It's ran 24/7 folding now mining for the last 8 or so. If it dies, it will likely be noisy first. Worst case your pc starts over heating and rebooting and you have to take it apart anyway. I wouldn't bother dual pumping unless you are...
This actually worked. Disabling the bios control let speedfan take over. That was super helpful, thanks. I'll miss some of the other utilities but the fan speeds were what i was looking to fix the most!
I'll try that out. Reading thru the ROG forums, there doesn't seem to be much resolution there, some ppl have posted emails saying the mobo is too old, there won't be an update.
So apparently a win10 update a few months ago borked the AI suite 2 on these older boards like my maximus V gene. I've looked around and haven't found much info on if asus is going to fix version 2 of the software, they already fixed version 3, but it won't install saying I have the wrong board...
Made some xmas upgrades this year.
All prices are with shipping included, but I will only ship to the continental US. All items are in full working condition unless otherwise specified. What you see in the picture is what you get, if there's a missing accessory please ask, though likely I...
It's been 3+ years since I've had to buy anything WC related. It looks like sidewinder hasn't been getting new inventory, where should I be shopping these days? I'm in the US btw, I'd prefer not to be shipping across the pond.
I'm secretly crossing my fingers amazon lowers the price of the g27 for prime day and I'll pick one up and start up some iracing. Sadly the new 920 announced that works for pc and xbone is gonna be 400 bucks, and not due on sale till fall! I'm not sure being able to drive in the living room...
The universal blocks have been out and about for a long time. I've got an old MCW-60 from swiftech that I'm still using. I think it's 7 years old now. Still cools my 670 better and more quietly than any air cooling solution. The only issue at this point is that the mosfets on newer cards...
I'd agree, it's either air bubbles or gunk in one of the blocks. Properly getting the air out of top mounted rads is a pain in the butt. But with an older loop if you haven't cracked open either block to check it I'm going to lean toward gunk. I was running pentosin and distilled and(i think)...
I'm still running a gpu client on my 670 and getting a little more than my cpu puts out on SMP. I think the only reason i've kept it up is well, because I've folded FAH for just over 9 years now. But honestly with the way the team has gone recently i've thought about hanging it up or switching...
Nice review!
So i'm seeing a 3-4C difference between the best and worst rad depending on the fan speed? Discounting the koolances at the lower speeds of course. Those are clearly not geared for those types of fan speeds. That's not much disparity, it makes it tougher for me personally to...
Haha I had an old laptop that was a P4 that I folded on back in the day when we had those special P4 only bonus WU's. 3.06ghz of P4 power! That fan was a screamer, i couldn't hardly work with it next to me. This new laptop is 3 years old as well, and i think the only reason work hasn't...
Yeah you're probly better off putting a low speed fan over it if you think its getting too hot. Otherwise if you HAVE to, you can always buy some 3/8 tubing and swap 2 connectors in your loop that go to and from the mobo to be 3/8 as well. That would be cleaner i think than reducers or...
I realized I didn't supply anything constructive with my previous post. OP, looks like from your screenshot that the heatkiller blocks are on backorder. I'm sure there's other blocks available if you want more instant gratification. And 75 bucks for 2 backplates? ouch, that seems a little...
Glad you got it sorted out, top mount radiators can be a bitch to get all the air out of. When I had one I would actually set the case on its back so the barbs were at the top of the rad then turn on the pump to help it push that air out. It also helps to not have the loop sealed off...
Do the temps rise as the flow drops? If you're still seeing good temps over a long run at full load on the system i'd say either the flow meter is borked or the fan controller can't handle the data.
Can you visually see the flow in the res? Does it appear to stay consistent? That is a...
Ahh well if you're moving to the 800D you'll be in great shape and i'd suggest adding another 240mm rad while you're at it. It will increase your cooling capacity by quite a bit so you can run the fans slower. Otherwise you have to tear the loop down later to add if you don't think the 360 is...
