    Need know what is this gpu for try got a bios

    That is a Radeon C553 (R5 240) No idea if there is a bios in the database for this one. https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/243449/243449 https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/228853/228853

    To distill or not distill what say ye?

    Most coolant in cars is not recycled. Nearly all of it hits the ground at some point. Same for refrigerant. R12 for example. Every cooling system leaks. Every hvac system leaks. I asked my instructor the point of certs. Sodium you don't willing knowing put these chemicals into the ground or...

    4070 SUPER vs. 4070 Ti

    OH!! my mistake! I hope you like the card. I tried the TUF brand with my motherboard, and I really like it. Very solid quality. Have used DryIce on it, that's kind of a thing I do. and it still works like new :)

    You should see what copper looks like after a year of hard water running through it. I literally use a wire wheel brush on a Dremel to clean my block. :rockout:

    4070 SUPER vs. 4070 Ti

    Really a touch Under the Volt and get the Vmem clocks up, helps the performance quite a bit. I've found no real reasons to manually adjust the clocks. Only for benchmarking will I try and OC manually (Just the core I'm talking about, default mem) and it's not an impressive difference because...

    4070 SUPER vs. 4070 Ti

    Power limit is locked on these cards. the only way to increase power is by cross-flashing, which is something I had considered on my Super Duper Ventus 3x because the cooler is way over-kill for only 220w GPU restrictions. The nice thing is the 4070 Super is very efficient. Not so nice, only...

    4070 SUPER vs. 4070 Ti

    Looking at your rig specs, either you got free hardware or have more money than you say haha!! :roll:

    4070 SUPER vs. 4070 Ti

    253w is the peak card power. GPU only, 220w. 1 Asus model does have a 245w GPU power, but I'd have to look up the exact model. I might had been mistaken. 1 Palit Jetstream OC has 245w bios and a Gigabyte card too. https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/264397/palit-rtx4070super-12288-231210

    4070 SUPER vs. 4070 Ti

    Might get lucky and have a 245w bios where most 4070 Super cards are 220w. The TI models have about 500 more cores. That is the actual difference between Super and TI where the extra cores just use more power, and thus a faster GPU.

    I tried to use AMD Auto Overclock, and now my PC has been freezing up sometimes. Afterwards, the screen goes black or displays artifacts.

    Yep, you've covered a lot of bases. Yes the integrated is a GPU. No it's not plugged into a pcie slot, and no it's not using a similar driver. At least you have igpu for backup and send the card out to RMA and see if the technicians can replicate the issue.

    Waterloop 24/7 or no?

    The barbs are brazed to the top plate, so the tubs are clamped. No case anymore. At one time, was running a Silverstone TJ07. It was massive. Had 4 radiators, all the works. Had to give it up. Damn thig was massive. Too much work swapping out systems. But this is a great idea. I do a radiator...

    Cracks in my cpu waterblock should I be concerned?

    I have a heat killer non pro and disliked it's performance being it's just a cold plate, but the top isn't acrylic I don't think. Some sort of hard plastic. The pro, full copper would be the way to go IMO. Not sure about the bykski, but haven't read anything bad about em.

    Cracks in my cpu waterblock should I be concerned?

    I dislike acrylic tops. And the reason I don't run a loop all the time unattended. Dudes, check this out. As far back as 08/09' This happened. I have made 3 different top plates since that time.

    Waterloop 24/7 or no?

    I am utilizing a bucket, submersible pump and a waterblock only. Am using tap water. (And its horrible, but works) But a regular actual loop, I use automotive Ethylene Glycol because it's designed for cooling systems with mixed metals and formulated for exactly that. And engine coolant is...

    To distill or not distill what say ye?

    Now, THAT depends on variables. Start with how contaminated is the air? What metals, plastics and rubbers are introduced. Does metal patina count as corrosion? Is the system constantly filtered to keep the water neutral? So forth. I used tap to drain cooling and my old waterblock plate was...
