Quake Champions works out pretty well on this level of hardware.
Been having display flicker issues lately that I haven’t been able to sort out.
Got it to stop over heating with FE vBIOS, required sodlering to maintain display output after drivers load. Without soldering, POST display and BIOS settings are still accessable, and windows is before drivers load. There’s likely a driver mod that could resolve it; I don’t know, and I’m not the person to sort that out.
Never did manage good stability with my single sample/unit. A neet adventure, but disappointed in the end.
Pretty sure there’s stuff On the back for each too. Bare minimum, if you take care of the signal lines that actually send pixel data, you go through a bit of hassle and use this
Assuming the microcontroller/FPGA (whatever it is) that the WX9100 doesn’t have, which I suspect has to do with the auto dual vBIOS switching (WX9100 only has one of the chips) doesn’t interface with EDID stuff in anyway, should be able to solder everything on… probably.
Early on messing with this thing, I had a theory that the microcontroller was used for display spoofing to make less work for VM support, more OS agnostic. No idea though, of course.
It looks like it was designed to allow easy access to the vBIOS that’s exposed during post, but the other is covered by the backplate. Maybe early in the design someone thought “let’s make it easier to work around potential BIOS/UEFI compatibillity, easy to flash so the motherboard doesn’t fully initialize it and keep it from being fully passed through” or something. Like device ID spoofing at a hardware level basically.
I’d only add 1 at most 2 ports on
Realistically you’d only need 1 port to game on and the rest can be powered by intergrated or another card for your productivity monitors
Need something new enough to use the same drivers, or maybe just some old Nvidia card. R5 240’s last drivers aren’t terribly old. 22.6.1
The cost of something like a WX2100 is stupid; at that point, might as well just buy a typical Vega card… unless of course there’s some unlocked pro feature you need.
And about clock speeds and what not. Everything I’ve heard about Vega tells me I’m better off undervolting and calling it there. The comparison between this and a typical vega 64 is probably like comparing the R9 Nano with the Fury X.
I don’t plan on doing benchmark videos for a while, except in some easier to run games (Doom 2016 runs great, Arkham Knight seems fine). Currently running 2x E5-2630 garbage tier CPUs with this thing.
