At least the product does what it claims, kills your network I think it is possible to disable driver updates with Group Policy editor. Maybe it's even possible to disable device-specific driver updates from the device's settings?

You can either disable driver installation for that specific device in Group Policy (then installation will fail whenever Windows tries to update it) or use Microsoft's tool "Show or hide updates" wushowhide to disable the installation of that specific driver (uninstall it and run the tool before Windows Update reinstalls) https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3073930/how-to-temporarily-prevent-a-driver-update-from-reinstalling-in-window

Echoing the nvidia drivers loving suck sentiment. Every single driver since August has different colors over HDMI and it's pissing me off. 411.70: ycbcr 444 is PINK, 422 is dull and washed out, 420 is vibrant and best looking 411.63: 444 doesn't even work, blank screen, 422 and 420 washed out 399.07: all three options washed out 397.93: 422 vibrant, 444 and 420 pink. Honestly what the gently caress. It's a crapshoot whether new drivers will play nice with my HDMI outputs or not. It's stupid and making my couch gaming a headache. Sometimes some options flicker, while others are perfectly stable. Some drivers have hitching on video playback, others don't. Some drivers play nice with afterburner, some don't. Just work with at least a little bit of consistency at least, please?

So I rolled the dice and flashed my Zotac 2080ti with a higher power limit EVGA bios. It worked. At first I thought I lost performance but forgot the base clocks were set differently so comparing clock offsets is meaningless and total frequency should be looked at. Going from 115% power to 130% power was not enough to move up on the clock speed. 2100 mhz stable. I was however able to move up on memory. Currently at 7700 mhz and still slowly pushing it. I was able to get about 150 more points on time spy extreme so I'm not getting any memory errors yet. I wish I knew how hot my vrms were getting so I think this might be as far as I go.

Of course I use a Silverstone rotated motherboard case where the expansion slots hang off the roof of the case...

But the motherboard pcie lever isn't going to do anything helpful when the GPU hangs off the case roof like this: When there's a huge cpu heatsink next to the gpu, the locking lever is impossible to press.

I doubt it's doing anything helpful, but a lot of motherboards have locks built in to the slots so there's no removing them and it just makes it annoying. I really don't like the PCI-E locks but not enough to change motherboards.

I ended up managing it by sliding in a plastic spudger and jerking it like crazy. Also managed to tear off some skin on my finger from trying to do it with my fingers. The combination of a D14 and mondo GPU is almost enough to make me switch to watercooling. But i think i have the hang of it, assuming the switch isn’t going to wear too much from my plastic wedging.

Intel released some gaming numbers for the 9900K, and it's about as you'd expect. Roughly 5% increase in performance over the 8700k in most games (accounting for the higher clock speed), and 15-20% on heavily threaded games like Ashes of the Singularity. The review embargo is up on 10/19, so we should be getting impartial results then. I'm curious to see a like-for-like comparison with both chips at 5GHz all-core turbo. It looks like Intel's results intentionally used gimped memory clocks and timings on AMD's products.zer0spunk posted:Yeah, I've never had to use DDU, just select the clean install option in the driver installer.

They arent worth that much but you can start there. Used custom cooler cards are generally selling for $550. Since its Craigslist you might be able to catch someone not so knowledgeable but you'll have a better experience keeping in mind what the actual value is. Keep in mind you have no fees selling this way which gives you some room to lower the price if needed. The pricing of the new gen is a gift to used sales right now so if you are going to I would asap (the last few generations the x80Ti card was devalued to ~$350 on launch day of the next gen) 1gnoirents fucked around with this message at 18:04 on Oct 9, 2018 |

Same for my PS4 about a year ago. I ended up selling the 970 to a Russian guy without any feedback on ebay. I was initially sketched out, but it turns out when people use those international services to take delivery on US only auctions and send them overseas, the buyer forfeits their ability to dispute the transaction. Ebay can be a nightmare these days unless you do a buy-it-now listing that requires immediate payment at checkout. I tried to auction my PS4 last year, and I had three straight people immediately tell me they needed to cancel as soon as they won because they had bid "on accident." When this happens, you can make an offer to the second-highest bidder, but I never heard back from any of them. When I relisted it as a buy-it-now, it sold without incident. Ebay / paypal takes a big chunk of fees, and you need to make sure you follow all of the seller protection steps when you ship.

I was initially sketched out, but it turns out when people use those international services to take delivery on US only auctions and send them overseas, the buyer forfeits their ability to dispute the transaction. I always do auctions at 0.01 on any popular item and they always sell for higher than anyone else. Have the auction end on a weekend night, the duration is irrelevant for a video card. You'll have 100 watchers and 300 bids by the end and its impossible not to sell. If someone pulls the "accident" then you sell the next in line $0.50 lower. The problem with bidding is setting your minimum value too high. Dont worry, a 1080ti (or PS4 for example) will never sell below market value, you're much much much much better off drumming up interest rather than worrying about it selling too cheaply. And remember you arent actually obligated to ship the item if thats a serious concern, but it wont be an issue. I just did it for my 1080tis, and in the past for many CPUs, 1080s, 1070s, 980s, 970s, 780tis, etc. Take ample pictures, use good lighting, take it outside if you have to. il serpente cosmico posted:OK, that's what I thought, but I vaguely remembered having a problem when I went from the 970 to the 1080.

I am using MSI afterburner with my new 2080 TI (this Gigabyte version: https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N2080TGAMING-OC-11GC#kf) I am messing around with some benchmarks, and according to afterburner it's hitting nearly 1950 MHz. The card is rated by Gigabyte to hit a boost clock of 1650 MHz (or 1665 in OC mode). What the heck is going on? Is Afterburner misreporting? I'm not getting any instability or crashes, and I haven't touched any of the settings. Nvidia control panel confirms the Boost Clock is 1650 MHz. EDIT: It looks like this is normal with Boost 3.0? It's weird to see it spike so high but it settles in right around 1725 MHz or so with sustained 100% GPU usage. il serpente cosmico fucked around with this message at 03:25 on Oct 10, 2018 |

il serpente cosmico posted:Why do manufacturers under-report their boost frequencies so drastically? It kind of is that way and kind of isnt. A lot of skus are indeed very arbitrary between themselves in the same brand. What is going on though is it has to hit those numbers under a huge range of circumstances, mostly when its hot enough to throttle you shouldn't see it ever dip below the "OC" figure, but definitely not the reference figure or you have a huge problem. Thats all they promise, and the rest of it is Nvidia's own boost 3.0 essentially (and literally) self overclocking itself as far as it can under its thermal frequency lookup table. The factory clock speed figures also *should* be an indication of better binned chips, when available and or when it makes any sense anyways. These numbers mean a whole lot more for laptops, in desktops though with giant AIB coolers that move tons of heat very well it will boost itself way past the numbers on the box. And finally the offsets and power target they choose for any particular specific part number can ultimately affect the overall boost 3.0 effect - but this is completely erased once the owner installs afterburner or whatever and sets the power target to max even with no other overclock.\ But asides from all that it really does seem the actual numbers they choose are seriously unrealistically low, but again since its that way for everybody due to boost 3.0 that information still kind of trickles ... upwards
