id buy it if they did VR, ive got picky with flat games of late must be a age thing i like to get out in me games if you know what i mean but i did enjoy the OG.

for me 8gb is enough even when having 10gb and 16gb cards. i look at it like this sure i can put a V8 in my car and it will go faster but i only use my car to nip to the shops and a 4 pot will do that just fine.

Ive been using distilled for donkeys of years without any problems, my 2080 still looks brand new so do's my 3080 both with factory fitted water blocks.

maybe voltage droop. id try a little voltage +on the vcore and see what happens.

yes the idea has been on going for a long time, and it looks good untill everything gets heat soaked, id love to see it work but every increasing heat wins in the end unless you can chuck loads of cool air at it but that defeating the object sort of.

i used to be a parttime Bum but have moved up in life to fulltime. id never work for anyone who would have me for a worker they would have to be quite mad. retired used to be a forestry contractor untill me mid 40s then built some custom bike/PCs/ telescopes ect. but my main work ive done is...

it will be fine and dandy but i once left the plastic on one pad and wondered for a while why my vram was getting hot but dont tell anyone eh ;-]..

i run a a770 LE 16GB with a 3700x on one of my riggs as for drivers there good unless you want to play VR, its on par with a 3060ti maybe a tad better not quite a 3070 but oodles of vram. CP plays at 100 fps in 1440p with frame gen on on high settings im happy with mine.

yes the ones my 3080 came with was like rubbish you think with gdr6x they would of made a effort with it running hot.

i havn't a clue bud i used gelid cp-ultimate pads wmk/15.

i dropped 10c on me memory with a pad change on my 3080 id deff go for it.

misses is the same here im allowed one room but just between you and me ive been stashing kit under the bed in the spare bedroom untill she catches on :)

thanks bud ,me last testbench was on a chair with wheels, i called it the traveling rigg :) i draw the line at the door ;-)...

slapped this together for testing gpus ect, ive 3 boot drives all win11 one for intel, one for nvidia and one for Amd Im sick of changing drivers. im short of space in my workshop so it had to go on the wall. feel free to take the piss :).
