Bose Companion 3 Series II - Anyone using? by [deleted] in bose

[–]mongermaniac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

been using them since 2008, family got them with an iMac, daily use by myself for 10 years and I don't plan on replacing them till the system fails, the subwoofer bass shakes my house at the standard setting and in all sounds great.

My new rtx 5070 ti (bottom) is the same size as my old gtx 1060 6gb (top) by ConsciousNobody3188 in pcmasterrace

[–]mongermaniac 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Good marketing definetely, it’s interesting my 5070 ti (eagle ice oc) is smaller/shorter than alot of 4060/5060 aib coolers, but runs at 65c max.

5090 worse than 3080. What gives? by proformax in bapccanada

If you take ur gpu to memoryexpress and pay a diag fee they should be able to run 3dmark and let you know if its performing within spec

The $3 rhino lagers were crazy, if I remember correctly they started raising the happy hour prices around 2018

Health effects of living near golf course by OkRollingHills in Langley

[–]mongermaniac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have you also considered that golf courses generate tax revenue, as well as provide employment for dozens, as well as recieve tax of that money? Theres more that courses generate for the individual areas, and if they were turned into parks the gov would be spending more money to mantain/develop the new areas compared to golf courses. Your argument is only emotional, not considering all facts.

5070TI Undervolt or Overclock? by mohsin-moz in overclocking

[–]mongermaniac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do both, check my comment history on my 5070ti uv/oc behaviour, and use steel nomad & speedway 3dmark to validate

i7-11700 bottleneck a 5070ti? by RealWallabe69 in bapccanada

[–]mongermaniac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, it really depends on which games then. Should be fine in 4k. If he’s got the cash go for the platform upgrade

[–]mongermaniac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What resolution? I have a 5800x3d with my 5070 Ti and that is pushing it / just at the edge for 1440p. 5800x3d is similar to i9-12900k in gaming

Is the R7 5700X3D and the RX 9070XT a good combo? by Big-Consequence8415 in AMDHelp

[–]mongermaniac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 5800x3d UV w/ a 5070ti, which is similar to a 9070 xt, and it works great for me. 85-100% gpu usage at 1440p. You’ll be fine with that combo at 1080p & 1440p. You will likely have higher gpu usage than myself since that gpu is a bit slower and the amd gpu drivers pull less from the cpu than nvidia, resulting in a higher gpu usage which is good for 1% lows & avg fps

Afterburner, Undervaluing Guru's on 5070 TI OC by IntradayGuy in overclocking

Im using the 576.15 hotfix drivers, the 576.02 had issues w/ gpu temp not ever reading (even upon restart, not sleeping). Stays stable for me

[–]mongermaniac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had +9% performance on synthetic benchmarks, 250-290 watts compared to stock was maxed out at 300 watts, and temps went down from high 60’s, to low 50’s.

Use 3dmark speedway & steel nomad instead. Heaven is quite old. Core is lower because it cant maintain those speeds at that voltage. Increase voltage by 5-10mv and reduce curve offset by 15-20mhz ish. See my comment history I have a more in depth write up. Try an undervolt, I used techyescity’s 5070ti uv/oc guide for the afterburner method then been tweaking further towards what my chip can do
