Yeah, that thread is definitely helpful. Btw there's also Thermalright SilverArrow TR4 that isn't getting any mentions, but from the tests I've seen it's right there fighting for the #1 air cooler spot for TR4. ...so I guess smart thing $/performance wise would be to go either with Noctua or...

I've seen a test where it performed +/- the same as Noctua TR4 and considering that ML360 comes with everything that water cooling comes with, it seems that it's no brainer choice for Noctua TR4. Thanks for your reply, I was assuming that, but wanted some confirmation. Though I still hope that...

One of the main reasons for my question is this: View: https://youtu.be/FffaOYQpI6k Noctua TR4 was outperforming Kraken X62 and yes, Z73 is bigger, but it's also more than 2x expensive and if all that I'm getting for that extra money is reduces reliability, increased noise and stunning...

3970x I'm in EU. Budget is... well... the less the better, but not to compromise CPU's health, longevity and productivity? I really want to get some feedback from guys using Z73 and what temperatures they're getting. So far I'm mainly considering Z73 and Noctua nh-u14s tr4-sp3 with 2x black...

Hi guys, Is anyone using NZXT Kraken Z73 on their 3rd gen Threadrippers? What temperatures are you getting on different loads? I'm currently torn between Noctua nh-u14s tr4-sp3 and... I dunno, there seems to be no good AIO specifically made for TRs? But fwiw I really like the visuals of...

We rate this card at a ~300 Watt TDP in it's out of the box configuration. Here is our power supply recommendation: Radeon RX 5700 - On your average system we recommend a 500 Watt power supply unit. Radeon RX 5700 XT - On your average system we recommend a 550 Watt power supply unit. @guru3d...

Many years, can't tell exactly. Less than 10 though. I've also played Battlefield 5 (on max graphics) for 20-30 hours and have experienced NO black screens and NO stutters. But I've read that a lot of people are experiencing black screens in other games (that I do not play) as well. Btw I've...

Hi guys, I'm getting black screens on my 5700xt while playing latest COD. What can be the reason for this? My system is Ryzen 2600 b450 tomahawk 2 8gb sticks sapphire 5700xt 1 hdd 1 sdd 1 regular keyboard /w backlight 1 mouse (no lights) 1 headset 3 120mm fans 2 24'' identical monitors (same...

NVM. Solved. Hey guys, Question is am I going to be able to connect RX 5700 XT with my PSU? I just opened my case and this is the only cable that's currently free (my current gpu gtx 1050 feeds of mobo):

bump, still lots of unanswered stuff

Every time people bring Raytracing as an argument I feel they also need to mention that those fancy shadows will result in ~40% fps drop...

Ok... I've read that if I don't have a good enough airflow, than I SHOULD get a blower GPU. Question: what is considered a good enough airflow? I have 270r corsair with 2 intakes and 1 exhaust with open holes at the top. Is this considered good enough? When I opened it after +/-8 months there...

Buuuuuuuut Gamer Nexus was killing it with basically artificial loads, so how useful is that really? I've never seen even one YT video test where gaming temps with this GPU went over 90 degrees, it was always +/- 84. So is that a big deal, really? And another question was do 3rd party...

Hi guys, I'm thinking of upgrading my build (r5 2600, gtx 1050) with 5700xt and my store of choice has only blower models now (msi, gigabyte, asus, amd - all blower types). I've been reading A LOT of mixed information about amd reference model and nothing about blower models from other...
