thanks for the reply

i just overclocked my 7 year old 5960x and got way more frames in my games. the processors i'm looking at have 25mb L3 cache which is useful for cpu crypto mining. and price to performance may not be relevant when it comes to playing modern triple a titles, but i'm just trying to run simple...

yeah your right but i'm seeing that these dual processors don't have a dedicated fan, just a heatsink, and relies on the case airflow for cooling, if i use a cpu heatsink and fan combo, and leave the vrms and ram exposed to open air in my frigid apartment, nothing should overheat

thanks for that information. Is there an option in the bios to turn off fans?

I want to build some HP Proliant DL360p G8 motherboards with some e5-2660v2 cpu's to mine raptoreum and speculate on it's potential. my apartment is freezing and the landlord won't fix the heat but i have cheap .09$/kWh electricity, so i might as well heat my apartment with crypto miners. ive...

i had similar problems with my r9 290, but i had a waterblock for it, i luckilly got a brand new old stock r9 290x off ebay for $150, dunno who shelved a r9 290x for 7 years and never used it but its finally working great for me. old one would soar straight to 95C and thermal throttle and get...

shipping costs must be rought. i found a youtube explaining how to edit the windows registry to trick battlefield 2042 to work with my r9 290x. doesn't help performance, i still get low frames but it helped with compatibility. if your having issues with games saying your graphics card is...

Hydro X Series XG7 RGB 20-SERIES GPU Water Block (2080 FE Rev.B) (corsair.com) looks like this waterblock is compatible with a slew of 2080 cards, i know it's known to leak but i feel i can fix it. i think i can get a deal on a hp brand rtx 2080 but wanted to see if anybody knows of any other...

looks like i may be able to get a deal on a used hp rtx 2080. Seems legit, i've seen linus tech talk about fake gpu's and that's crazy. Hope both of our cards perform better in the future. my r9 290 is holding my rig back big time lol.
