i upgraded from EVGA cards, revision 1 had faulty fans and revision 2 had massive coil whine.

I'd never recommend EVGA over MSI, comparing my last two cards to my new one.

well ... too expensive, put that on the lifetime warranty?

Maybe i will let it put inside my coffin when i die :D

although the only brand i had recursive issues with... sadly, was EVGA :oops:

Too bad.

I have never had any problems with Evga, maybe i am too lucky;)

Maybe the European one are somehow better?:confused:

n-ope ... not even a chance ... as i am Swiss all my EVGA i had ( mostly 285/460/470/580) were European ... and all of them had issues
also talk about lifetime warranty ... pfahahaha i had one successful RMA on the 580 who was changed for a new model after the VRM blew up, though no OC involved, and then no more warranty coverage when the replacement suffered nearly the same issue :D other cards ... coil whine, stalling fan, artifacting even with a mild OC ... the horror ... (for me :cry: )

MSI on the other hand ... they always replaced and honored any RMA i submited to them even to the extent to replace a R9 270 Gaming i allegedly burned (short circuit due to a too close CPU heatsink :D ) and even though i explained them that it was my fault ... (and that one even missed the "warranty Void If Removed" sticker on the heatsink screw :laugh: )

pretty much same line up of brand for me ... except you can add almost every other known brands to it :D (and less known ... but not for the nostalgic ... )

i am baffled how my Armor behave ... i just got into a huge game session ... nearly no games made the fans kick in ... i need to play more demanding games ... or ... i need to not run my front 3xML140 at full RPM i guess xD

my gaming X is the same, even at 4K many of my games just dont make the fans turn on at all, and the few that do its <20% most of the time. They designed a really good cooler, on a power efficient card.

I don't think I'd seen this group until today. I have a couple of 1080 FTWs under water. My whole rig is setup on a cart, so I can wheel it outside in the winter for cold temp benchmark runs. Good fun, and some pretty awesome clocks come out of it. I see Nick lurks here....anyone else here running cold / chilled? What kinds of clocks are you seeing?

I installed Afterburner and use the default fan profile which runs my 2 fans at around 1000rpm when idle at 26 degrees , 20.5 ambient, works well for me.
My GPU temp climbs up to around 60 when overclocked and benchmarking, in gaming the temp is around 50s.

When I get home later, I will install afterburner and run some benchmarks. This weekend will be real fun because I will be side/upgrading my system to a 4690K/combo that I just bought off @Lt_JWS. Hopefully no real bottlenecks, please advise since I am new to intel stuff.

Well I have a locked i5 6500 @ just a bit over stock speed due to my ram XMP profile, no bottleneck here!
Runs fine with my i5! So should yours, even better when overclocked!

Valley is horribly CPU limited. Heaven isn't quite as bad, until you get SLI, and then it'll start showing it's age as well. I don't hold much weight in Heaven and Valley scores anymore......it's a CPU overclocking contest now, instead of a GPU benchmark.

question, because it has been a while, is there any benefit in having a 960 or 760 as the physix only card? I remember something a long time ago about running a second lesser card just for physix or something like that? I guess my question is will my 1070 benefit from something like that or just drive on as is? thanks it has been a while since I have had a quality gpu from NVidia.

hardware accelerated physx is very dead. There is no benefit whatsoever.

Maximum OC results may vary but the FE cards seem to be fairly good OCers overall, just use a custom fan profile in afterburner.

I don't have a FE but these are my afterburner OC settings for my MSI GTX1070 Gaming X, my card doesn't like to be overclocked much on the core, the vram(samsung) is no problem.

With your temp limit set to 83*c it's no wonder your core clock doesn't want to be pushed. :)

Well the maximum GPU temp during benchmarking is just around 60s , do you think it has any use to set the temp limit higher than 83?

@flmatter this is my 3d mark Firestrike score with these OC settings from above:

http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/18194980 I think the biggest hurdle I have is the fx8320.....which will be changing soon.


edit i5 4690K arrived today as soon as new thermal paste arrives I will be moving cpu/mobo over to its new home along with AIO cooler( for some OC'in).
