  • FML it's the worst time to get into a high end PC, but...

  • Thank you! I might try replacing the PSU when it's in the budget. More likely, I will eventually do a whole system replacement when the CPU and GPU (and by extension, the mobo, PSU and ram)

    That ought to clear up the problem ;)

  • Necro post, but I bought it in summer of 2021! It's not terribly old.

  • Yeah, I dropped the OC, but it still randomly turns off in Elite Dangerous and in seldom cases, Helldivers 2. Power limiting the GPU to 80% fixes it, annoyingly.

    And the CPU OC is actually with an undervolt, and it's stable so long as the GPU is at 80% of its power envelope. I have no clue what the hell that's about, haha. It feels like I'm taking crazy pills.

    The PSU is a SeaSonic PRIME Platinum 1000 W 80+ Platinum, so I'm really at a loss aside from the 3080Ti pulling massive current for a brief spike.

  • Two hard drives, a SATA SSD, an nvme SSD, a standard pump, and a ryzen 5800x OCed. That's it!

  • In my case, I have 3x 120 on the 360mm radiator and 2x120 on top for the 240mm radiator, and one exhaust fan that is also 120.

    That said, I think you could easily get away with three to five case fans depending on cooling, fan size, etc.

    140mm fans can also move a lot of air, and I used those for years. 120s just fit my current and prior case a bit better.

  • Another great fan are the Phanteks T30s (120mm), if you have room. They are thicker than normal fans, but are about as quiet as Be Quiet fans, while moving tons of air.

    You just need to make sure that your case has clearance for them. They are absolutely cracked on thick radiators and exhaust fans. I use them on custom water-cooling builds, and the loudest sound is coil whine, not fans.

  • I agree on the PSU. Nothing is worse than continually buying PSUs because voltage spikes cause the PC to draw too much power. My 3080ti makes my 1,000w seasonic occasionally turn off, which is incredibly annoying.

  • How do I use my bt/wifi card with this gpu?

    Jump

  • Hmm. I think your GPU would run in 8x mode, but it should be fine, even sharing lanes with the network card.

    I've run cards off mobos with the same number of lanes, and a very similar gigabyte pcie network card, and it ran flawlessly.

    I'd check the physical connection, look for damage to the antenna connectors where the wire meets the SMA connector, and try swapping in the old GPU as a control if you still have it. On paper, things should still be fine.

  • I think you might be talking to the wrong people. I know many people in happy marriages, male and female.

  • What popular belief do you disagree with?

    Jump

  • One of my friends was a rural police officer, which I didn't know. Dude is super friendly and queer. Unfortunately he had a lot of terribly sad stories of AD&D and DUIs. He finally called it quits when one woman rode up an industrial garage door to impress her friend and got lethally caught in it. Found her friend holding her legs to try and save her. Too many terrible things happened to nice but terribly misguided (or drunk) people.

    I think that job hurt his heart.

  • What's your favorite OLD Youtube video?

  • "Flushable wipes"; "dishwasher-safe"; "odourless" - What are some other blatant lies that companies get away with?

  • Flavored dish soap is kinda wild in general. Yes, I want the things I eat and drink off of to all taste vaguely of chemical lemons.

    The default should be plain soaps and plain dish detergent. Some are so potent that the scent sticks to the dishes even after washing, and unfortunately, the food too. Especially that dawn spray soap.

  • What are some gross or disgusting facts about the human body that people aren't aware of?

    Jump

  • Probably. I know everyone starts off as girls before some continue on as guys. Which is why guys have nipples and that line on their scrotum and taint.

    Not so sure about the earlier developments though.

  • Do you feel content warnings are beneficial?

    Jump

  • Depends. I'm fine with most stuff, but I certainly want warnings if a video is titled "revolving door fail" but the content warning is "NSFL" (dude got his fingers caught and visibly cut off)

    Not having a NSFL tag would be a major disservice to the viewer.

  • As long as it's legal, live and let live, imo. Life is too short.

    Though I also encourage people to not rely on it as their only outlet for being horny. It creates unrealistic expectations around nudity and sex, which is irritating in certain scenarios.

    It's extremely apparent when someone thinks nude beaches are for sex because they've watched a shitload of porn and start acting out. Everyone else is talking with friends, reading books, or getting some sun.

    If you want to do voyeurism, go to your local kink events, there's plenty of them through FetLife.
