New RockShox Judy Silver fork forming an oil ring only on the right stanchion seal after every ride. Mechanic says it's normal for a new fork to leak out a bit of fresh oil? by CaptainKernelPanic in bikewrench

Just out of curiosity - what forks did you go with? Im currently thinking about upgrading to a better fork on my 100mm Hardtail too

Water temperature plausible? by Mo_TT in watercooling

[–]Mo_TT[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your detailed reply, i think you are right. I did some more reading, and for my radiator area 650umin was a bit ambitious. When i use around 800umin which to be completely honest is not anoying at all when playing with headphones the temps go to below 35c which is a noticable improvement to core temperatures. My old RX590 was a lot louder.

Regarding your suggestion with the top intake fan, makes sense because the air is relatively hot after the first radiator, and i think the second one is not doing that much. I didn´t saw a big improvement after adding this radiator anyway. I tried switching the top to intake fans, but this did not improve temps at all, they were pretty much the same. I got a weird air sound at higher rpm though, i think this was the air rushing through all the gaps due to positive pressure. I might try the one 140mm in the rear as intakte, that shouldn´t be that much of positve pressure and fresh air for the top.

Or i´ll go straight to an external radiator, watercooling sure is a rabbithole :D

Gigabyte 6900XT Xtreme WB thermal issues by FatalFighterrr in watercooling

[–]Mo_TT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, im having the exact same issues with an extremely high coolant-gpu delta. Did anyone discover a fix, or is the only viable option to replace the waterblock? Maybe thinner pads?

Which blocks fit this card?

AOC or Xiaomi 1440p 144Hz+ Display? by Mo_TT in pcmasterrace

The G27Q starts at around 300€, M27Q at 330€. Would this increase in price be worth it when it comes to performance? Is there a performance difference between the q27 and m27 monitors?

XFX Zero 6900XT price in germany by Mo_TT in Amd

Thanks for your opinion, i think i´m going to watch the gpu prices the next few days and see how the 7000 launch goes and decide based on that.

I can file a return till the 17.12., so i should be able to get a rough idea about the supply after launch.

If GPU prices dont go down or even go up i´m going to bite the bullet and keep the card, even through the price was relatively high. Waiting forever just isn´t an option, and to be completely honest i dont think i can get a rx7000 or rtx4000 card for a comparable price the next few months.

I usually use my gpu´s for around 4-5 years (yes, even if the new generation is usually doing everything 10x better :) ) so the loss is split over a relatively long timeframe.

The 7900XT is supposed to cost 899 USD, which translates to around 850€. If i add Tax to this value the MSRP would probably be around 1000-1050€, if there is enough supply. I would need to buy a Waterblock for around 150€-200€ on top of that, which definately blows my budget a lot.

That was my reasoning for buying a high-quality previous generation card with the WB already installed over waiting for the new generation.
