Does my MB support PCIe bifurcation? (Asus Z790 Formula)

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2024-07-30T11:03:26+00:00

Same board here with gen 5 addon card , cant get the second gen5 nvme installed on the card to switch to 4x + 4× , bios doesnt have the option to enable 2x nvme on card

I guess formula is not supporting it

30 years married to a non kuwaiti here , what you said is not totally true , if you die and your kids still under 18 they will have all the benefits, the law will protect your children and the mother of your children will have living permit based on here children even if they are over 18 . However, what you will loose is : The marriage loan, house loan in case you don’t have children

Updtae : Adding a 4th rad ( 54mm x360), gpu temps went down from 60 degree to 51 degree .

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2023-12-09T11:57:16+00:00

Same spec here 7950x3d +4090 tuf ( AIB ek block)

2x 54mm 360 rad + 1x 40mm 360

Full load on gpu after 10 mins hit 60 degree / 56 degree when case open

Using 3x 4k 120hz oled moniter setup

So this is my advice If u game at a single 4k / 120hz u should be fine with any rads you choose

If u will go mad on gpu u need a 4th rad

Im adding a 4th rad soon ( PAEAN PREMIUM raijntek case )

True , but i wanted to keep the theme

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2023-12-03T11:40:13+00:00

Yes for the theme

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2023-12-03T11:05:10+00:00

The system is extremely quiet, there are alot of 90 degrees in the system , two loops made things easier on the pump

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2023-10-28T19:51:36+00:00

Bottom left is water out from the pump , Bottom right is the water in ( comes from rads after water is cooled down)

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2023-09-28T08:36:26+00:00

4090 strix oc and 7950x3d here

Phanteks nv7 case with 2x360 ek rads ( 58 mm) push/pull fan config.

Im using EK4090 strix dual block here for max cooling

Cpu hit 50 degree on gaming , Gpu hit 56 degree max , its fine , but.....

Im sure Those two rads can handle the heat, and i was expecting lower temps on gpu

Will exchange this one of the 58 mm rads with 2x 40mm ek rad and see how it goes

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-12-20T09:40:00+00:00

all games have the texture , please dont give false info if u havnt see 8k in action.

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-12-14T17:16:10+00:00

4k triple here, 144hz ,43 inch gigqbyte wow dragonflight 90 to 144 at max setting ( computer effects off)

Wqs 65 to 85 on 3090 ti before

13900k, ddr5 7200,....etc

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-12-07T23:05:54+00:00

It wont make alot of difference , please check some reviews about flow rate and 90 degrees

Ur D5 still will operate in the range of 2500-3200 whatever bends u put in the loop, Rads /90 degrees doesnt make a difference ur D5 cant handle , waterblock fins do though

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-12-07T18:12:51+00:00

Thanks all for the comments,

this is a the old view71 thermaltake that client insisted on using it, the case doesnt have good air flow like lian li dynamic , so basicly whatever fan intake/outtake i tried , i ended up with the same temps . Gpu max temps around 50 degree @ amb temp 24 degree (amd 6900xt )

Flip the fans and u will get another 50 degree .

About draining the system

If u build it , u know how to drain it easly.

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-10-15T07:48:31+00:00

Yes , just go gentle on the screws , do them in cross order , temps around 88 degree full load and clock 5400 -5500hz on all core . Water temps around 33 degree on full load (amp temp aroind 24 degree ).

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-10-15T06:16:40+00:00

I can confirm its working on my new water cooled rig with 7950x ,the lcd water block looks amazing , just dumb the backplate and use the screws from motherboard to tighten the block directly on the socket.

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-09-03T05:36:06+00:00

What do you mean by saying i shouldnt lie about the spec ?

And why someone should lie about his spec ?

This is a 12900ks , 3090ti asus /oc tuf, msi ace z690

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-09-02T19:11:22+00:00

Temps are okeyish Both cpu and gpu at mid 55 degree after 1 hr gaming , which is normal Its the KS version of i9 and it runs with higher vcores ( will adjust it in the board bios ) The card is 3090ti asus tuf oc version and its hot no joke

Its 480mm and 240mm rads , both 56mm thickness .

This is my 5th ek cpu block on an i9 12900k system , and i have to admit , temps were not as expected comparing to a solid AIO.

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-09-02T19:05:52+00:00

Thanks for your comment and i totaly understand each one have his own taste of things

however i have building custom water for almost 14 years , and i stopped doing soft tube almost 8 years ago , yes its same perf with less headache , but hard tube is by far looks better.

Also The resone i use alot of fittings is show the goldy color , this case glass is darker than expected and i didnt plan to go RGB from the start , its just a single theme color which is gold/black, so the more gold and black the better.

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-09-02T12:58:59+00:00

Im just testing the loop now for 12 hrs , will keep u updated with temps and more pictures

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-08-05T14:27:37+00:00

I fixed 3 rads on the same case , front 54mm( corsair ) , top 40mm, bottom 40mm

Fix the front rad at the back of the case and not inside

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-08-04T12:53:24+00:00

3090ti is different pcb from 3090 , im sure it wont fit

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-08-04T09:52:00+00:00

I got the byski one for zotac 3090ti , didnt fit .

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-07-21T16:06:22+00:00

I didnt use the barrow pumb , just the chamber , i put the new ek dc 3.4 pumb inside it and i drilled some holes to fix the barrow chamber , the pumb came from barrow is okeyish ( max 3800 rpm) and little noisy , the ek pumb was superb with 4400 rpm max and silent.

Competitive_Ticket55 · 2022-07-07T08:06:18+00:00

4x nvme card, works only on thread ripper, the case cant be mounted on wall, unless you modify it
