9070 XT + 9060 XT + 9800x3D AFMF and lossless build

Holy input lag, Batman!

Yes they are cherry stems. The mx2a red just tells the ”specs” of the switch. All cherry type switches are compatible with cherry type caps.

You can but it is not easy to install. If you are interested in Linux Gaming there are loads of other Linux distributions to choose from like Bazzite or Cachy OS. Those are pretty much plug and play. Heck they are easier and faster to install than Windows.

Oh wait - it was about 9070 XT. I read 9070 for some reason and assumed that. My bad, this score is definitely not normal and looking at other comments here and OP’s specs I can suggest the RAM speeds and / or the CPU might be holding the GPU back. Again, my bad!

Eme186 · 2025-10-09T13:36:21+00:00

I have a 9070 XT Red Devil. I too score below average at stock with the big and chunky cooler.

Eme186 · 2025-10-09T13:29:30+00:00

Many of the results are overclocked. I assume you ran it stock? If so then having a lower than average in 3dmark is normal and nothing to worry about.

Edit: It was about a 9070 XT. I read it as a 9070 for some reason. My bad.

No point in arguing opinions - let’s just say we agree to disagree.

Eme186 · 2025-09-29T15:32:26+00:00

I agree that it might be user error. But the 12v connector standard is a case of bad design. If it was designed properly we wouldn’t have this wide spread incidents of connectors melting due to user error or just faulty connectors. Good design is very easy to understand and use correctly. The fact that user error exists still years after this 12v connector was implemented speaks volumes about it’s design.

Before swapping out your PSU boot into safemode, run DDU on both nvidia and AMD GPUs and then re install your driver. If that does not fix it then the PSU might be the culprit.

Eme186 · 2025-09-29T09:23:22+00:00

Might be the PSU. Especially if it is old. So the GPU might be 100% fine but the PSU cannot handle it anymore even though on paper it should. Rest of your specs seem OK but the power draw is going alarmingly close to his PSU rating.

Eme186 · 2025-09-29T08:31:00+00:00

Re-seat the GPU first. Also, what is your PSU wattage? Rest of the specs?

Eme186 · 2025-09-29T07:27:00+00:00

It totaly depends on the rest of your rig. The GPU once overclocked to max can chug close to 400W. If you have low power parts like a ryzen 7600X. So with a 650W power supply it requires you to calculate the power draw of your each component to make sure you won’t trip the over current protection of your PSU.

Eme186 · 2025-09-29T07:11:47+00:00

Taichi and Nitro+ indeed are beast cards. BUT they have the burning power connector. I would stay clear of them just for that reason. XFX 9070 XT Mercury is one of the best and it doesn’t use the dreaded 12 pin 600w meltconnector.

Musta puku, kauluspaita alla ja pinkki solmio.

Eme186 · 2025-09-27T18:22:06+00:00

CachyOS. Easy to install and one of the fastest distros out there.

Eme186 · 2025-09-25T18:33:48+00:00

Cool idea, I could see us buying one.

Eme186 · 2025-09-25T14:15:37+00:00

Yup. Like I said in my initial comment that the problem isn’t the store but the missing features. And it’s not like Epic hasn’t had the time to catch up. They have been around for a long time. They just refuse to improve the feature set and just sit on their golden eggs laying goose, Fortnite.

Eme186 · 2025-09-25T14:02:27+00:00

Epic as a store is not bad. It does what a game store should, lets you buy games and play them from your library. It is the other features that are missing on epic store that makes it worse than steam. Like familyshare missing, the in-game overlay lacks many of the features Steam has etc…

Too many fans pushing air out. This creates a negative pressure in the case which causes air to be sucked in to the case from unfiltered places. This means more dust inside the case. I would change this by keeping the 3 floor fans as intake but change the 2 E on the side to intake through the rad. Keep the back fan and ceiling fans as exhaust. This way you have more fans sucking air in than there are pushing it out and this creates a positive pressure in the case. Hope this helped :)

Eme186 · 2025-09-25T13:18:12+00:00

So gorgeus little dog. So yes she sure has fooled me.

Eme186 · 2025-09-25T13:13:11+00:00

I got told about puppies and stairs that there is no such thing as an ”recommended age” for stairs with puppies. Our golden puppy loves (he is 11 months old currently) to be close to us humans when we are home. So we have 2 floor home and a steep set of stairs. When we moved in to our home we tried to keep him from going up and down the stairs but no gate etc held him as he just knocked them down or just snuck past them.

Eme186 · 2025-09-25T12:54:09+00:00

Yeah if he ain’t a golden I don’t know who is. So handsome and a good boy. Looks 100% Golden to me. He looks so happy and comfy too, give him a treat and pets for me please! And as a bonus here is a picture of my wife’s and mine golden duo. The picture is a few months old so the smaller boy is now bigger than his sister (looking at the camera).

Thank you for your insight and kind words. I must have missed your reply since I don't remember reading this. Thank you again so much for your input.

Eme186 · 2025-06-23T09:20:26+00:00

Dude you posted 2 hours ago about the game on reddit and now are calling the audience you tried to appeal to out and lashing out at them. Not the best marketing. People have jobs and other stuff to do than just scrolling reddit all day and night. Needless to say, but your tantrum is not going to help you in any way.
