    Question pci-e extender

    Seems Linus connected the cables between them and made a huuuge one, around 3.5 meters, which almost work. That's like 10-15 cables, so with 1 I won't have any problem. Leaving the link here in case someone in the future is asking himself the same questions as I am View...

    Question pci-e extender

    My point was asking if the cable is safer? I haven't used any cables vs the classic risers so I don't know, only from what I've read. But I think you can't burn the GPU as that guy said in the link, worst case scenario doesn't work.. But it's true some cables work some don't, even from the same...

    Question pci-e extender

    Isn't the pci extender cable better ? I've seen those from your amazon link exploding a lot on the gpu mining subreddit Not same brand, I mean the type. Probably the capacitors. But it's good otherwise, the gpu I want to add is not from the 3xxx Series, it's my old 2070.

    Question pci-e extender

    Risk meaning... ? Performance loss? Or not working at all ? Performance loss is minimal, max 1%, sometimes 0 as far as I've seen on a few youtube videos.

    Question pci-e extender

    I already mining and want to add a second gpu for mining on my mobo. I bought a big PSU so it's all good. First slot(pci-e x16) is occupied with my current gpu and the second pci-e 3.0 slot works at 4x only and from the info I gathered it seems that it doesnt matter if it's not 16x, for mining...

    [SOLVED] the gpu from hell

    Regarding the PSU I started a game and upped the power limit for the gpu in msi afterburner until the gpu had a 340w consumption (normally I think its around 250?so around +100w) to see if the psu can deliver the power and it didnt restart but i left it only for around 5 minutes because at that...

    [SOLVED] the gpu from hell

    Yes it really is very odd. 3700x, Rtx 3070ti, B450 Gigabyte Aorus, 16 gb corsair vengeance @3200, 256nvme + 2TB HDD.

    [SOLVED] the gpu from hell

    Thanks for looking into them. Yes, the gpu drivers from nvidia website and the chipset + lan drivers from the motherboard's website. And yes the razer synapse app for my keyboard.. I dont know why it stopped or temporarely stopped but yesterday and today no bsods anymore and I let the PC powered...

    [SOLVED] 60hz -> 144hz or 240hz

    You dont change your monitor everyday so you want to buy something that will still be great in a few years. The FHD is a no for me. I'd buy a 4k or at least 2k 144/165hz if I were you. Fhd is becoming outdated. But if you like it..go ahead.

    [SOLVED] the gpu from hell

    Yeah, but it worked great with my old 2070 never had any problem in almost 2 years it's not that bad...the 3070ti needs some more juice and maybe the psu it's not really 700w but otherwise it wasnt awful. Do the dumps that I uploaded show anything relevant ?

    Question RTX 3090 Strix OC - Temperatures / Undervolting Results

    That's weird. At 0.825 your temps should be low. Also, the Strix have good cooling fans. I undervolted my 3070ti Strix to 0.881 at 1950mhz and I get around 65 degrees with fans on auto. You ask if it's ok..you can only know that by testing to see if it's stable. To see how much fps you are...

    Question HELP!!! Strange lighting issue causing a flicker effect

    You don't provide much info. Does it happen on other games too or just Warzone ? If it happens only with Warzone probably there is something wrong with the textures. Remove your Gpu drivers with DDU and reinstall the latest ones from the manufacturer website. Remove Warzone, including BattleNet...

    Question RTX 3090 Strix OC - Temperatures / Undervolting Results

    If you lowered the clock you underclocked it. With undervolting you lower the voltage while keeping the same performance. They way you want to do it is at full gpu load. Start a graphic demanding game, put all graphic setting on ultra so that you get 99-100% gpu usage, change from fullscreen to...

    [SOLVED] 60hz -> 144hz or 240hz

    It depends on what your components are. Not necesarely but ideally you'd want 240fps to take advantage of a 240hz monitor and that's almost impossible to get on top games with great graphics but on the ones you listed you can get them with a good GPU. I went from 60hz to 120hz and it's...

    [SOLVED] the gpu from hell

    I just saw your edit "i didn't see the 2x molex to 8 pins adapter answer. OMG you're lucky to just get BSODs and not burning your house down lol". Why is that ? It's a normal practice to use those adapters, nothing uncommon about it. It's bought from a store, its not like its a DIY. If the 4...
