1. Yes but I do not care for the modifications I had to do for a viable product, whereas the HG10 comes complete and doesn't need the modifacitons.
2. Yes if the price difference was only 0-15% higher than doing it myself.
I use a VGA to PWM adapter to go from the 980 Ti fan port on the pcb to the fan on my h90. Works like a charm and you can use Afterburner or stock NV software to control fan curve. Retains a motherboard fan header if you are in short supply of them also.
This is what I am talking about. I...
I am right there with you buddy. The best I can do is 1477 with +27mV and even that doesn't hold after about an hour of gaming/stressing. Sometimes you just don't get lucky with the silicon lottery lol. My ASIC is 65.4%. My temps are stable around 55C at load and I pretty much stick to...
Yeah power is good. I just took out the card and tightened the screws for the AIO it I seem to have dropped about 5-7C so maybe it was not tight enough. I can see the pcb bending slightly on the card now. Going to run it for the next couple days and see how it reacts.
I actually got the...
I put the G10 and H90 on my card but I am having some issues. Before with the stock cooler I was stable at 1466 for hours. Now, I will get a driver crash after about an hour with the same overclock. My core temps in AB cap out around 60-61C with my custom fan curve.
My setup is: the H90 is...
Got my card in today. I am still waiting on a vga to pwm cable before I slap the G10 on so that gives me a couple more days to stress test it on air. The cooler is actually pretty quiet but man does this card heat up fast. I am stable at 1466/8000 on air with +0mV and a fairly aggressive fan...
Barring a few game outliers Fury X was generally considered to be within single digit % performance with 980 Ti. The problem, to enthusiasts (which is would buy a $650 card), is that the 980 Ti overclocks very gracefully and that has not been the case with Fury X so far. That may change with...
About how much clearance between the G10 bracket and the midplate over the VRAM? Curious since you took off the foam spacers, and I was thinking about putting some heatsinks on that midplate. Also how high were you able to click your VRAM?
Let me know how it goes! I am curious if you will need a shim or longer screws. Are you planning on keeping the midplate and VRM plate? Backplate?
My card and G10 will all be here Monday, but I don't plan to put it all on until I have had a couple days to stress test the card. I would hate...
Well they turned my order over to be filled by the manufacturer/distributor so maybe that is why...they didn't fill it. It is getting shipped from CA, no NY where they are located. This is at the bottom of the shipping email:
Looks like I will not be receiving it until Monday. Not sure why...
Yeah going to go with H90 and use the saved $ to pick up some copper heatsinks to place on the midplate over the VRAM. Should help increase surface area from the flat plate in that area, as the VRM already have a finned plate. Probably won't order all that until a week after I have played with...
I ordered on Sunday when it said delivery 7/10 and I got an email this afternoon that they sent my order to the manufacturer/distributor and my order would come direct from them. Then at about 8pm tonight I got another email that said my order shipped. Not sure how mine shipped faster than...
MSI and Corsair will be making a hybrid card with an AIO cooler that should be pretty quiet. I believe it is coming in August if you can hold out that long.
I ordered on BH as well...tempted to cancel it and order from NE but tax on a $680 purchase as well as the other items to apply the G10 bracket is a solid reason to keep away from the cancel button.
If one of you remove the heatsink on your card, let me know if the G10 can fit without a shim!
