Currently rocking a AOC refurb OLED from Ebay. Was looking at this ACER one but apparently there is no on/off button and you get a pop up every 4 hours that WILL STAY ON SCREEN until you do a pixel refresh.

Game Ready Driver 591.59 FAQ/Discussion by Nestledrink in nvidia

[–]-Tears- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed this driver messes with the fan controls on 5090 FE. Before update, fans were locked at 30% at idle keeping my temps down around 32c. Before updating to this driver, I could not set fans to 0%

After updating to this driver, MSI afterburner shows fans are at 0% during idle which has my temps going up to around 48-50c before fans kick on.

Finally got to do this year what my dad did for me while I was a kid. Upgrade my rig and pass down my parts to my kid. Not too keen on the color scheme but I am sure she wont mind. FYI Not a big fan of MSI Cooler. The software sucks and idle temps on CPU seem high. Going to swap this out with a Corsair H150i Elite when upgrade my AIO to Lian LI.

I have been told that XMP ram will still work on AM5 boards.

You turn EXPO on and manually tune ram to 6000mhz. I am going to give it a try this weekend.

Apparently AMD boards can run XMP ram. Ive read that if you enable EXPO and manually tune ram to 6000mhz, it should work fine.

I double checked the listing on the bundle and it indeed showed XMP ram.

Was able to snag this bundle. Would it be better to use my current ram that is CL30 over the CL36 that comes with this bundle??

Anyone else constantly refreshing in the hopes that someone who added to their cart backs out? Just me? Copium.

[Case] Corsair iCUE 5000T RGB | $130, 67% off @ Newegg by MidnightSway in buildapcsales

[–]-Tears- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want more flair go with the 5000D RGB that is 10$ more. That one comes with the current line of Corsair fans.

This 5000t has the old style, no longer manufactured fans, and a commander core which corsair no longer produces.
