adding 2 more storage drives and going to replace aio .both fans stop working. and i dont have fans for it.

Since my last post I've bought a 3d printer and gone back to a de-shrouded approach to cooling the 3080 now that I can meet the fans to the heatsink without modding the card. went through about 4 prototypes of the short 120mm ducts that connect the fan to the card before I got to this stage, likely more refinement to come. Also looking to print a top hat so I can rotate the L-12 (I tried based on some advice and currently this is the only orientation that it fits whatsoever without removing the fan above it).

So far I'm at again a pb for acoustics and thermals, the P12's below the card on my curve keep it in the mid 50's @ 65%/1350rpm when the card is pulling 240-270w. Quake RTX pulling 320w is 61c. Its very quiet for an air cooled build given the performance on tap, and I know I'm gaining parts of a % every time now, but the journey never ends, it is it's own reward.

Had some problems with my main rig but now it works. Aaaaaand we have a 1080 Ti with it.

For those who are wondering why an old stock cooler, I'll get a Mugen 5 next week.

I was considering another Scythe cooler to replace the Scythe Kotetsu, instead got impatient and bought the Cooler Master Hyper 212 black edition.

So you have seen both Ryzen 7 Systems I built, I thought I would also shown the Ryzen 3 and FX so here you go....
Introducing the Panther! This is the Ryzen 3 1300X..

This one uses an HP case that is so cute I just had to use it. Though the system that was in it was an AMD as you can see the original AMD sticker (The system still works 100% and is in storage Packed in a box).

This is the spare bed rooms computer for guests to use.

And without further adieu here is the FX 8300 system.

The crossfire cable I had broke I have a new one ordered and it has been shipped (From China) Poor thing has been stuck in LAX for 2 weeks! Customs LOL. and now we are in the middle of a blizzard here in Portland Oregon and I bet I wont see it for another week.
I also have more fans ordered as the 2 I had in this system finally died out 2 weeks ago. Still it doesn't get hot at all.. Plus it's just the office puter my accountant uses so screw him right! LOL.

you really should have just asked on the forums here in the buy/sell/trade area for a crossfire bridge, literally like all of us have a crap ton of them laying around in some drawer. us long timers anyway. probably would have got one mailed to you for free 2 day USPS

Yeah I was ban back then from the TPU site.
I'm Not exactly MR. P.C.
I wished I had a ton of them can never seem to find them and what is more Ironic than anything I can think of is when you purchase a Video card that is Crossfire/ SLI ready the manufactures are too Ducking cheep to just include a bridge with there so call Crossfire card! You know what BISSES me off even more???
The Muckers do NOT even tell you the BRIDGE is SOLD separately! In fact they do not even talk about crossfire at all. It's a zrap zit show shame!
( I took out all the bad words).

AFAIK bridges always came with compatible motherboards. No point in adding a bridge to every GPU box when the vast majority of the market was not running SLi/X-fire

X299 was the last board I had that came with bridges, 4 or 5 of them in fact. Asrock X299 OCF if you want to search for it.

Found an image of what came in the box....yup, 4 of them

Typically came with the higher end OC boards. Although, I seem to recall bridges with my NF4 SLi DR from DFI too, so IDK.

EDIT: Yup, was the older flexi kind before hard cards were all the rage... on a side note, check out that kickass BIOS chip puller tool!!!!!
