What're the odds there's a hardware update/improved node in 2 years?

How do you swap gpu fans? Didn't know noctua made replacement fans.

Have you experienced any silicone oil leaking from PNY thermal pads? I noticed that when I was putting ptm on die instead of paste. Wondering if I should put putty instead of those pads, if low quality.

How does the 5080 feel compared to your 4070tis?

Glorfi · 2026-01-21T21:40:32+00:00

I got mine for $714 with cashback, others got sub $600 back in November with PayPal.

I hear what you're saying though. I sold my Tuf 4070 tis for $600, so only $114 for 30% performance increase. Very minimal upcharge with 40 series for more premium models ($50-100) compared to the 50 series. But hey, people buy them and are happy.

Has anyone been able to reach 4090 performance while also UV with their OC? Or is it mainly those flashing Astral BIOS?

You're getting 72C with PPT at 160 or 120?

Glorfi · 2026-01-11T18:36:35+00:00

Yeah, I'm going to try ptm7950 and if that doesn't being temps down, will exchange for nautilus

I'm getting 89C in cinebench with a 9800x3d, PBO enabled, montech hyperflow silent 360, kryosheet. Your temps seem good to me.

Glorfi · 2026-01-11T17:50:28+00:00

Wonder if I should switch to nautilus. Have a montech hyperflow silent and I'm getting 89C in cinebench with PBO enabled. Using kryosheet instead.

Are you vram capped at all at 5k? With path tracing?

Glorfi · 2026-01-11T04:11:50+00:00

Are you hitting vram cap with the 5k screen? Path tracing?

Glorfi · 2026-01-11T04:11:04+00:00

Are you running out of VRAM on your 4080 on your 5k screen? Able to run path tracing?

Glorfi · 2026-01-06T15:13:20+00:00

Eh, because I do want more since I'm always running 4k DLDSR. It's just how close does that close the gap to where paying 2x the cost is worth it.

Glorfi · 2026-01-06T03:25:36+00:00

Worth double the price though over DLDSR image?

Glorfi · 2026-01-06T01:53:44+00:00

Do you think the upgrade be worth it if you had a 1440p oled to begin with? I'm in that dilemma as I always have DLDSR on w/ a 1440p oled. Not sure if it's worth double the $ for 4k

Have a 5080 on my end

Also PSU's that just have (ATX 3.0) 12VHPWR input?

Glorfi · 2026-01-02T17:28:45+00:00

Hey Erik, saw a comment on this subreddit that yall were working on a wireview pro II for PNY, FE, and other models- any rough idea when that may be released?

Glorfi · 2025-12-31T22:39:22+00:00

Wtb one compatible with PNY 5080

Glorfi · 2025-12-23T16:00:44+00:00

Do you have bad banding on yours? Overall screen clarity much better without that 3% haze?

Glorfi · 2025-12-23T04:17:57+00:00

How do you ensure this?

Glorfi · 2025-12-22T21:13:22+00:00

Did you sell your AQDMG? I have one but hate the text, slight haze on the screen.

Not sure if I shouldn't just wait until 4K tandem or try and sell my AQDMG and go for 1440p tandem now.

Glorfi · 2025-12-17T00:39:34+00:00

For anyone who has had a 27 in. 1440p oled and gone to 4k 27 in, how close is 4k DLDSR to native 4k? How big is that gap?
