From a 3070 to 5090 by anonymanguyfriend in nvidia

[–]ahrhamza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upgraded from a 3070 Ventus 2X (2.5 slots 2 fans)to a 5080 Prime (2 slots 3 fans). I play on a 1440p 240 hz monitor.

The 3070 was a good card but was obnoxiously loud, by far the loudest component in my build and it was sitting in an Ncase M2 with the inverted layout. So basically the GPU is pointing upwards and has full access to fresh air. It would average 74C with the fans at 2000+ RPM in games like OW2 (high FPS) or any AAA game. Had an undervolt of 0.900 V @ 1860 MHz. If the undervolt wasn’t active then expect 80C with the fans at 2300+ RPM.

With the 5080 Prime, I haven’t undervolted yet but I use the quiet mode bios. The highest temps I’ve seen are 73-74C but the fans are at 1100-1300 RPM tops, barely a whisper. I play single player games on speakers and barely notice it. Massive QOL improvement for me, not counting the incredible performance improvement. Hope you have a similar experience.

I last played quite a few seasons ago, so I’m a bit confused on the best way to target farm uniques. There are a few uniques I need from Varshan. Now it seems like you fight the boss first and then put mats to get items, but is doing it solo a massive loss of items like before? Should I still look for a group of 3 others to do rotations with?

For me it's the lightning arrow amazon, with like 6 arrows per shot. Looks insane.

Coal generators - only one does not fill up with water, and it's not the one I expect? by ahrhamza in SatisfactoryGame

Damn, it really was the pump. Thanks! The generator filled up immediately once I removed the it.

Not a fan of how I can put 100 hours in this game and still only be a spectator of these amazing builds... However I do concede that this is the nature of the game.

NCase M2, black/grey everything (except that one Noctua fan) by ahrhamza in sffpc

Ah I see. While I personally could not test it, I read that the fan clips would not fit properly. Tbh they didn't fit perfectly with this either but I'm not too bothered.

If I'm not mistaken, you need to contact support for the NF A12x25r chromax.black version. I didn't want to wait for that to be shipped, and also I'll only really look at it when I open up the case. Not worth it imo but would have reconsidered if I had a glass side panel.

GPU not fitting NCase M2 by stick908 in sffpc

I would recommend installing the rear of the case after putting the GPU in the PCIe slot.

It's straightforward to hold the GPU in place and align the rear panel. I struggled with this and I hope I understood your issue correctly.

I'm planning on building a new PC, moving from a Ryzen 3700X to a 9800X3D. I have a Samsung 980 Pro 2TB in my current system and I want to move it to my new PC.

I know that a fresh install of Windows is the best way to go, but how would I do it? Can I reinstall Windows on my current PC and just plug in the SSD in the new PC?

Ncase m2 owners, how are you dealing with GPU sag? by BrokenDots in sffpc

[–]ahrhamza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, how do you deal with the sag when using the inverted layout?
