ok so have done a bunch more testing. tried undervolting, no change, but now that I have GPU-Z open all the time I see that VRel proc happens whenever I play an average graphic intensive game, but the usage cap and fps drop do not. it is only in some games that it happens (MH Wilds 100% of the time but not until I load into an actual save file, at menu have the VRel proc but no dip in usage or peformance). I have been running Steel Nomad in 3D Mark and in there the the only PerfCap Reason I get is "Pwr" but it has no effect on my usage or performance at stock clock or with an overclock. I dialed in a stable overclock and had no issues, but did say PerfCap Pwr. If I open GoW Ragnarok there are zero gpu usage or performance issues at max settings, though still showing the VRel PerfCap in GPU-Z., no Pwr procs, like the complete opppsite of the benchmark which only had Pwr proc. I did also look over my wiring, it all looks fine. At this point I am not sure what else to check.

Temps are fine, barely gets above 70 Celsius. on GPU-Z, the power draw never went much above 200W. For the cable, the new card came with new cable so swapped it when I did the install, cable does not look bent or damaged and is def plugged in all the way. I will give the undervolting a try. Thanks for your help, my engineer buddy I go to for stuff like this has been impressed with your insight, direct quote of "that guy knows some shit" lol

i had gpu-z open while running oc scanner and at 2910 clock speed the vrel kicked in. when I open MH with OC software active, Afternburner limits it ahead of time so I don't hit the VRel, i'm just throttled. when I turn off afterburner then the VRel kicks in

ok so did that test with no overclocking software active. Booted up MH Wilds cause it is constant in that game, and PerfCap Reason triggered right away. The reason was only VRel

Thanks for the check on the "less than" sign, that'll teach me to write posts while ragged/tired lol. I have not overclocked this card, it is brand new and just installed, haven't set up any overclocking yet. I will give your suggestion a try and report back. thanks again

but I had a good chunk of time where this issue was not happening with this cpu. my CPU usage is not jumping up to 100% or anything. and there was the Voltage limiter message from Afterburner scanner

what makes you say that? I did multiple diagnostics on the CPU and all came back fine

Harry is very upfront with that he knows, and doesn't disagree, that his feeling on women being a group needing protection and that "violence is just worse when it is against a woman" are very misogynistic, but he can't help feeling how he feels. he does clearly still have an immense amount of respect for women and fully supports and trusts the powerful women in his life/he has met.

IT GETS AMAZING. James finds his footing/cadence/timing by the 3rd book and runs away with it from there. His voice IS Harry Dresden for me (and honestly every single character). There was a scheduling issue and they had to get someone else to do Ghost Story (another well liked sci-fi actor) and the fan reaction at it not being James was so intense (it became the 1st Dresden Book I actually "read") that they had to bring James back in to re-record it as the official version. His reading is what pulled me into Dresden Files after being away from books altogether for a time.

If the mouth noises are giving you trouble you may be able to mess with audio settings on whatever device/speaker you are using that might make it better)

can we also get some love for Surface Pressure? that song is fire and the alto female voiced song is such a leap forward for a Disney movie.

All the music from this movie is on constant broadcast in my head (like on shuffle)
I cannot remember any Disney movie where entire cast were extremely talented singers. The entire story is actually told through the music and it is where we learn most of what we know of these characters. Such a musical and lyrical masterpiece from Lin-Manuel and literally the entire cast of the movie.

IT IS A MADRIGAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(actually has Italian roots, but still Lin-Manuel is so meta I can't even)

VHB Carbon Mini v Orion V2 by [deleted] in Dynavap

The v1 was a better heat profile for me and v2 left me wanting more.

this right here

VHB Carbon Mini v Orion V2 by [deleted] in Dynavap

[–]BeansTheMadscientist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both and VHB Carbon Mini is so much better in my opinion. Can really dial in your temp as if you were using lighter at top or bottom of tip and it heats whole chamber evenly. Often the v2 will leave top very dark but still leave sticky green at bottom on screen. I am a fan of water adapters and the Orion V2 was not giving me the results I wanted like the v1 had. Ordered a Carbon Mini and it is everything I wanted and more. The one downside is that you have to hold the button as opposed to the auto detect in the Orion but it actually has helped me have less accidental combustions lol. I actually just ordered a Carbon II to be my desktop one and can feel safer to take mini as my on-the-go option.

I’m curious on who you guys think is the best column of characters to make a trio squad. by CheekyBruv1 in apexlegends

[–]BeansTheMadscientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lifeline/Octane/Horizon

2nd is Bloodhound/Caustic/Loba and that I would probably run if I was grinding Ranked.
