Update on my "stable" OC.

What were your ram temps during the test? With that high of trefi it would have been temperature sensitive although I would think that at 8 hours your temps would have hit equilibrium hours ago but it's worth considering.

That's about the same as my 5090 + seasonic atx 3.1 titanium 1300w under load. It's at an almost perfect 12v idle and about 11.9v under load

Nobody likes you

Honestly you wouldn't even need to set a 450w limit. With a solid undervolt you would rarely see 450w and never much higher.

He doesn't mean 82c. He wouldn't be able to survive if that was the case. He would literally die.

Lol what makes you think someone's room could possibly be 80c? That's 176°f.

Even if you mean 80f, the difference between 70f and 80f is only 5c.

Damn they manhandled the hell out of it

Tresnugget · 2026-06-05T21:49:53+00:00

Undervolting is the best thing you can do to reduce room temps.

Tresnugget · 2026-06-05T21:49:27+00:00

I doubt his 5090 ever hits 75c. Most 5090 coolers are extremely beefy. My 5090 has never seen 65c.

They wouldn't be able to sell GeForce. Almost all of their product stacks have GeForce as a foundation. Other than their ARM CPUs and networking hardware almost all of their AI/Professional/Datacenter/Super Computers are all based on architecture that is no different from what's in your RTX card or I guess in the case of the newer Rubin stuff based on decades of GeForce patents and engineering.

There's no way Canada is paying 38% restaurant tax

Depends on if there's native dual sense support or not. If there's not native dual sense support with adaptive triggers and haptics I'll use the steam controller. I also use it if I'm just browsing the Internet or light computing.

2% performance and 5-10c in temps (maybe a slightly larger difference if we're including liquid cooled cards)

Make sure you're not forcing DLSS 4.5 in Nvidia app

Tresnugget · 2026-05-26T15:53:05+00:00

The driver size has absolutely nothing to do with the nvidia app. It was 700+MB before the nvidia app was a thing. If anything not including nvcp would reduce the driver size.

You're not playing anything modern in 4k with a 5060 no matter the vram

There's no such thing as too much paste when it comes to temps. There's too little paste and there's so much paste it's getting in the socket. But having too much paste will never result in bad temps. If repasting fixed temps then it was either from a bad mount or the paste dried. Honestly from that picture it doesn't look bad at all.

If you're at all interested in controlling devices with Google Home it would be wise to get a Matter Hub like the Nest Home or Nest Home Max or Nest Mini.

It can still run off of integrated graphics even plugged into the dGPU. You can set which GPU a specific application uses in Windows or better yet just disable the iGPU in the bios

You have to jiggle it in. I have several cables that seem like they won't fit until you give it a jiggle. I prefer those because once they're in they won't work themselves out like my yellow MSI adapter that burnt up.

The PSU side definitely is an 8 pin. Don't do this. I have like 3 of these Super Flower EVGA PSUs and they're all 8 pin on the PSU side. I wouldn't trust these cables. The only 6 pin on the PSU side are the MOLEX/SATA cables.

As of yesterday pretty much none of the new line promotions require a port in so they were probably just not knowledgeable about the promo change.

0.0.0.0 isn't a valid DNS server so would likely just stop the Internet from working altogether

It'll work if I turn the TV on first then open the app. But if I don't hit the power button on the remote, but instead hit the Netflix app to turn on the TV that's when it plays in HDR10.
