I'll have to give it a test.

Alright, I'm all switched over. Folding MOAR!

I did. Lol. It has the mounting plate in between, and I had that sideways. The block was oriented proper, but when I rotated the mounting plate to fix it, I just didn't think about the block fin orientation at the time. The flow is like double now. Temps dropped 10C when I started tweaking the PBO too. I even got them lower which I'll post below. I guess the defaults in PBO pump 5950x power through the chip? Still working on getting those settings stable and balanced. +200 Mhz right now. Geekbench went up 1200 points on single core performance. Gimmie some slack. I'm 42 with 4 kids 21, 18, 4, and 1.

I got it figured out. My heat plate fins were oriented in the same position as my jet plate. I had placed the mounting plate wrong, fixed it, and forgot to check that. 20 mins p95. The flow is really good now. I can now get into that oc.

Maybe we just need to give him 40 bucks haha

Integrated, like Vizio for example, wired even.

You're not the only one

I don't have much to add other than my AX6600 streams 4k HDR wirelessly and perfectly. It's a consumer mesh router. The Asus Zenwifi xt8. Also, Chromecast is pretty weak decoding some 4K and causes a lot of transcoding, so I suggest a Shield TV Pro instead. Works way better than integrated smart tv hardware/software. I can't wait to build a house with hardlines everywhere!

Yeah, without a dark theme, I just can't stay here. Goodbye... ??

Not gone that far into it yet, just PBO +200 MHz at one time which was even hotter, of course.

The change was maybe a 4C improvement to the CPU, but the GPU's are 5 C hotter, which is perfectly fine. I think I should have just reversed the order honestly. I think it's probably better overall to have only 1 cooling zone and to put your hottest block first, at least in my case. The GPU's are plenty cool still. It did spread normally. Not hard at all. I think it's probably still effective, but I may try some new stuff and re-seat it. I just can't get over not comfortably being able to run CPU stress testing the way we used to. Maybe 90C is just the new 70C lol! Edit: I did play with +200 MHz PBO. That was way hotter in stress tests.

I just jumped on the 5800x train this week. I have 2x EK CS 360's in my custom loop and an EK Supremacy CPU Block. Stock and Auto CPU everything pushes me to 90C after a couple of P95 tests complete. My RAM is 3800/1900 at C16 and stable. Basically, just the Fast Zen2 Option for B-Die and it's 4 DIMMS in Ryzen Mem Checker for now. Anyway, I'm trying to decide on whether I should replace the CPU Block. I use MX-4, but I think my tube is about 6 years old lol. I spread it and it's tight. I'm folding on 2 1070's only and my CPU is sitting at 72C, GPU's 52C both loaded. I even put a RAD between the GPU's and CPU to try and cool it a little before hitting the CPU Block. Edit: I might even throw some ultra kaze fans on the rads to see what that does lol! It will become a jet engine, but that's a lot of static pressure vs TT Ring+ 12's!

I plan to. I really believe what you're finally getting away from is one of the reasons I haven't been very active there. I know my multiple retirements were frustrating too, but I'm in a much better place today. I kinda spelled that all out in the folding section over there this morning. So, what's the current staff hierarchy here? Just looking for those familiar names.

My prize will be paid instantly after the folding contest. ?

I think we're in good hands. So, this move takes out the monetarily motivated owners and puts it back into the enthusiasts control. That's where it once was. That's where it needs to be. Thanks for taking it on your shoulders. Are the prize payouts instant now? ?

Anyone pushing over 3800 yet? Also, what clock speed and timings are you at right now? I just got all of this stuff and was on a 1700x before. 5800x quite nice.

I've been away for a while and come back to many changes. What sparked the need to leave and do this?

No! Blame Canada!

Put me down for $50 PayPal! Let's have some fun!

Oh and that chipset fan never is heard even when stress testing just in case someone else sees this and wonders.

I have the meg ace. Msi seems great right now. Pretty happy so far.

In!
