The “instant replay” shadow play feature is legit. I turned it on with my 2080 Ti and feel no performance impact. Plus I don’t have to worry about pressing any buttons to capture any highlights off pubg or any other games that support it. Apparently it’s been a thing for awhile. I’m not sure if it’s the new Turing NVENC or what, I’ll have to test it on my previous 1080 Ti

I occasionally get annoyed when I'm reminded that I sold my AC Extreme Plus and Twin Turbo coolers for basically a pittance a while back. The XP is probably still working with modern cards even since it was overkill for the old 6970, although the Turbos likely wouldn't be much good on anything faster than a 1060. At least most cards have good coolers nowadays above a certain price point, so I don't immediately feel a need to go buy aftermarket cooling. Someone on the last page asked about 3-fan coolers vs 2-fan. It really depends on the specific card and manufacturer which is better. The 3-fan cooler on my Gigabyte 1070 was reasonably quiet and did a good job, but the 2-fan cooler on the MSI 2070 I got in SA Mart destroys the old one. Even in a very quiet case it's inaudible until 55% fan speed and keeps the card at or below 72C. Probably doesn't hurt that it's easily twice the weight of the 1070's cooler and just much larger overall.

Question: Would I be able to get an appreciably higher overclock on an RTX 2070 if I swapped the cooler from the MSI Gaming X to that Morpheus II or an AIO? Just using MSI Afterburner, no hard mods.

Just using MSI Afterburner, no hard mods. What clocks are you getting now? From what I've read no amount of cooling is going to get you much above 2ghz core and 7.5-8ghz VRAM. It may help you sustain higher clocks longer though.

Just using MSI Afterburner, no hard mods. Probably not, no. If you currently are running it at <80C, you're not thermal throttling, so better cooling wouldn't change things much. Now, can you get quieter cooling at the same performance points with an AIO? Absofuckin'lutley. If you haven't already tried, though, you can use MSI Afterburner to adjust the curves and effectively undervolt the card, which will also drop temps (and noise), but again not really do too much for the top-end performance.

I think if I ever build a desktop in traditional form factor again I'll go water on it all just to see how silent I can make it I can cool everything I need with my 250 worth of noctuas running slowly in my 75 lb case 🤷

Water isn't necessarily quieter than big fan air cooling. Once you start getting down to near silent you start getting into hardcore diminishing returns. I think for most video, water IS the way to go, but a big giant Be Quiet! or Noctua can keep a CPU very quiet. Air cooling can also consistently be silent under low load situations whereas with water, you might catch some pump noise. Also, at that level, you can hear traffic from the freeway, your refridgerator in the next room, your wifi router, your hard disk in your NAS. Point is, don't chase too hard.

As the current owner of a big rear end air cooler I'm definitely going water next time, if only because it's smaller. My current cooler blocks the ram and it was necessary to take apart part of the mobo to fasten it.

I wish Noctua made something like the Morpheus 2 but with a universal bracket or their free mounting hardware for future products. Does anybody know how the Morpheus 2 would fare on something a 2080ti, if it’s even compatible? I imagine there would be very little gain to be had because of those stock vaporchamber coolers.

since we're doing build advice, I have a Fractal R6 with a Noctua D15S. Right now the case is rigged for front-to-back airflow. I haven't put my GPU in yet. I'm using a G10 cooler with an H75 and I'm not sure how to mount it into the system. Do I put the rad on the rear mount? I don't know if the tubes are long enough to reach all the way to the front or top. I'm also not sure whether the rad and fan can be squeeze in between the case and the cooler stack. If I put it on the rear, do I configure it as exhaust (keeping it front-to-back airflow)? This would mean the fan is sucking air coming right off the CPU cooler, which probably isn't the best thing for temps. But I'm not sure there's a better way. Putting it on intake would mean the radiator fan fighting the CPU cooler. Or do I flip the CPU cooler and run a positive pressure setup with heat coming out the top? This is the downside of air cooled setups... AIO cooled setups gave me a lot more clearance and a lot more options. I'm giving some thought to swapping back to an air-cooled GPU, that would dump heat into the case but also open up more airflow to suck it back out. I may do the Morpheus II thing. otoh that will block most of my expansion slots (all but the last I think). I may be able to wiggle around it by using a riser cable and using the vertical mount that's normally intended for GPUs though. Paul MaudDib fucked around with this message at 23:25 on Aug 9, 2019 |

I'd go positive pressure with air coming out the top, and fit a filter to the aio fan to minimize dust as much as possible. Either configuration should be more than fine. With the large fin array of the d15s I'd hazard a guess and say that the cpu exhaust temps are going to be lower/affect the aio less than the other way around, but the d15s is a massively overpowered cooler for most situations and will work well regardless.

H75 is the slim 120mm. It’s a small boi. I’m not sure what screw thread and length to use to mount the rad. I remember looking and not seeing it in the hardware pak. The ones I saw were the stand-off style used with a fan, not a short one for mounting direct to the case.

Paul MaudDib posted:H75 is the slim 120mm. It’s a small boi. Yeah, the H75 is still the same thickness as the H55 (~27mm IIRC), but as it's a more advanced model, it still ends up cooling more efficiently. So if a H55 is good enough (and it is), a H75 is even better. Some of the mounting strategies actually use long screws to go through both the fan and the rad and then into the case, so see if you have a set like that.

GRINDCORE MEGGIDO posted:I would very much like to see it completed. Got a cheap Zotac 1070ti mini off ebay a while back. Predictably, the fan sounded like a hair drier and throttled down to 1640 with the thermal limit set to 85C°. Had bought an Accelero Xtreme III and finally worked up the effort to set everything up. First try at putting on heatsinks on the vrms/vram. Turns out the mini pcb has the top and bottom vram chips closer to the core and fully covering them with heatsinks blocks the mounting plate Second try, I also added a small heatsink to the circled small vrm thing afterwards. Welp. I expected that slightly bending the heatpipe ends might be necessary, but uhh I had to pull this all a second time because I used the chance to stick a ID Cooling IS-60 on the cpu but put it on in the wrong direction so the Noctua fan clipped the top even with the dust filter removed. There's some coil whine that wasn't there with the stock cooler but it's not too obnoxious and the gpu stays around 2000mhz core while barely going over 70C° so I'm pretty pleased with myself. Going with a reference card for this sort of thing next time though. Arzachel fucked around with this message at 20:09 on Aug 10, 2019 |
