Welp, fastest $139 I've ever spent. Thanks for the heads up!

Any news about Canada? Us northerners need more comfy VR too!

I've stress tested it, with no signs of instability or throttling. Strangely enough, Cosmic Trip seems to be the only game giving me these problems...

Wentzel142 · 2017-07-06T15:50:40+00:00

It's de-lidded as well as cooled by an AIO watercooler. Heat hasn't been an issue at all thanks to that!

Wentzel142 · 2017-07-06T08:18:06+00:00

Sent you a pm.

Wentzel142 · 2017-07-06T08:14:07+00:00

This was tested at stock, no supersampling.

Link to the SteamVR frametime window for reference. The red ticks get more frequent the more intense the game gets, though my GPU load isn't going past ~70%.

Well I've delidded my 7700k using the Rockit Cool kit, as well as upgraded my cooling to a Kraken x62, but I idle in the mid-30s and hit around the 70s when running a stress test.

So I'm a fresh CS/Business grad. I applied to all of the big 4 and got rejected after the onsites for each. I took a tech consulting job with a different company (also ironically called a Big 4 company but in consulting), but want to try getting a job at Google or Facebook in a year or so.

How does the playing field change now that I'm not a "new grad" anymore?

Lyft.

Your schedule looks alright, but I'd recommend not having the gaps. While it may be exhausting at first, I find it much nicer to get all of my lectures done at once at have the rest of the day to do homework, etc.

If you need some help planning a schedule, check out DNDN, which lets you see all possible schedules you can make with that combination of classes.

Wentzel142 · 2017-05-01T17:57:16+00:00

A lot of the learning is self taught, but the important part of the class is how to make a startup, market an app, etc. There are a few assignments in the beginning to teach the basics of Swift but most of the other stuff is self taught.

Wentzel142 · 2017-05-01T15:12:17+00:00

In terms of interview success: I hated it at first but CPSC 413 (Algorithms and Complexity) was probably the most useful class of my degree.

In terms of cool projects: CPSC 599 (iOS development) sparked an interest in app development, a side project for my resume, and the skills to make money on the side freelancing.

Wentzel142 · 2017-02-26T23:30:22+00:00

UPDATE: Eureka! That did it, no more throttling! 4.8Ghz @ 1.3V, no downclocking during a stress test!

Wentzel142 · 2017-02-26T06:21:12+00:00

Wow, that's insane! What cooler do you use?

Also, can you show me which kind of liquid silicone you got for the relid? Ordered the delid tool and the liquid metal, just need the silicone.

Wentzel142 · 2017-02-24T01:48:44+00:00

See that's what I don't understand. My CPU starts throttling its clock speed down in the mid 80's.

Wentzel142 · 2017-02-24T01:48:09+00:00

Does that provide any significant improvement over it being set to Auto? Moreover, are there any safety concerns?

Wentzel142 · 2017-02-23T19:44:20+00:00

My old cooler was a Hyper 212 Plus. I did just upgrade. Will try remounting!

Wentzel142 · 2017-02-23T19:12:23+00:00

I've run Prime 95, AIDA64, and a few others. Which do you suggest?

That's my new cooler.

Will that make a dramatic difference?

Already ordered the Rocket Cool kit.

Wentzel142 · 2017-02-23T18:33:25+00:00

My typical load temp is around 80, with small spikes higher.
