… what?
idk about that, but if upgrading to an E5-2667v2 works as well as I want, it’ll get mounted a piece of plywood or steel plate or something. It’s sitting on a stack of Playboys at the moment, to get clearance for the fan I taped to the GPU.
The orange lights are trying to tell me no fans are plugged in.

MOBO: MSI x570 Godlike (upgrading to a bits power MoMo block soon, chipset fan is dying and is annoying)
PSU: EVGA 1600w supernova T2
Case: Corsair 1000D super tower
Rads: 4x 480mm rads with push pull fans (28 fans in the case)

That is the cultured builds I can appreciate in this thread.
Bravo!
Still the same stock-of-playboys test bench. tried upgrading cooling, didn’t go anywhere near as well as I hoped.
DVI adapter screws, nuts and stand offs came from my dead R9 390.
That hot spot temp… 105c.
That heatsink doesn’t look beefy enough, to wrangle that magma square
Perhaps get a hold of the Noctua C14s [*feed in the fan inside, should it stand too tall]
It’s also limited to 170 watts instead of 220 watts, because that’s the only vBIOS I’m aware of that isn’t obnoxious to deal with on this card.
I do want a C14 though.
This is my setup.
CPU/AIO: AMD Ryzen 5950x / Arctic Liquid Freezer II 420
MOBO: Gigabyte X570 Master
RAM: G.SKILL DDR4 3600MHz CL16 Trident RGB Neo 32GB KIT
GPU: Gigabyte 3080 Vision OC

PSU: Seasonic Focus Plus 1000 Gold

I sold off the 6850s a long time ago and 660 more recently, but I also picked up a couple of HD6870s in trade so I hope to bring the old girl back to life in the near future.
