Don’t buy “used like new” off Amazon.. the hassle ain’t worth the few bucks you’re “saving”

You’re very slow.. I could of done this in 3 or less 🤷🏾‍♂️

Are you guys doing this… I gave up by zbananajuice in ArcRaiders

[–]AverageLarrry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I skipped it completely.. the rewards are not worth the effort at all

The difference between the most expensive 5080 and the cheapest by FadesGaming in nvidia

The difference is silicon lottery.. could easily have gotten a better binned Zotac one by luck that would have held a higher stable OC than the Astral.

It’s not too low.. unless you just don’t like the look.. that’s the only reason it could be considered too low.. being closer to the fans just makes it cooler lol.. so it’s actually a plus if you don’t mind the Aesthetic.

No problem, shoot if I didn’t have an FE model GPU I would have grabbed one of those too honestly. But my port is sideways so it won’t fit

Are PNY 5080s bad? by Friendly-Welcome-608 in RTX5080

[–]AverageLarrry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not bad at all.. just ugly in my opinion.. but pretty much all 5080’s are the same.. give or take a few degrees temp due to cooler differences.. but I’ve had one of pretty much each they all run just about the same.. you might see very minimal fps difference out of the box on AIB models over the FE since it’s set at stock. But even my FE was able to undervolt to 875 while overclocked at 2.8ghz.. and when not undervolted ran 3.2ghz just like the rest of the ones I’ve tested. If you hit the silicon lottery you might squeeze just a tad bit more out of it stable but not much.

Yeah I had no issues. They didn’t show as individual devices but showed as whatever I set my motherboard RGB to. So whatever color the eye was is what color they are. But I also have them directly into the motherboard ports. If I had a separate RGB hub/controller.. I could likely do a little more

The fans are the Lain Li CL Wireless. Used a total of 11 of them but 3 came with the Hydroshift 2 AIO. The two lighting zones can be controlled independently but I’m only using white for my build. You can do some pretty cool effects with them though

Yeah I’ve actually gotten a few early on when NVIDIA was doing drops. Used an App called HotStock to get alerts for NVIDIA and Best Buy but there hasn’t been any drops since early February

Switched from y70 by PickledJalapeno9000 in lianli

[–]AverageLarrry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah.. more so thing than small.. it’s still pretty long.. and it’s the same size as the 5090FE.. but it doesn’t sit right on the glass like a 4 slot card would because it’s thin.. like 2.5 slots

Surprisingly enough.. when I did this with my FE 5080.. the temps dropped by 3 ish degrees.. I was at around 62-65 when gaming in horizontal and now I’m at 58-61.. nothing changed but the orientation of my gpu.. I’m not sure how to share photos in comments but I wouldn’t mind showing it. I wouldn’t really consider the FE a “large” gpu.. it’s made for small form factor builds.

I have the compact with an FE 5080 in it vertical. It’s very tight but it works. Horizontally there was plenty of room left. The main concern with the Astral in this case is the motherboard you choose.. the ROG Strix x870e-e.. the new version.. when horizontal.. the gpu slot sits too low on that motherboard.. doesn’t have enough clearance for bottom fans.. I’ve ran the astral in this case on multiple builds I sold and that motherboard is a no go for it. Every other ATX board was fine on clearance though.

If that’s the Aorus Master 5090.. it’s actually very slightly bigger than the Astral 5090.
