I dont know how often or how possible this is. But i have a custom ordered case by PCS. I have seen when i was amending orders that suddenly there was Lian Li O11 Dynamix XL Silver color variant, normally they only sell black.
I have talked with support and she said that someone custom ordered...
as steve said above, there is no reason to go for intel, and quite frankly it is bad choice. Switching to AMD would definitely be a better idea, however that has to be done through support. Considering your whole wait time is only due to GPU, this should not change your position in queue at all
at least i think by now it has everything as i want it :D can hardly do anything else to it xD i think..... maybe..... hm should i have a look?... :D no, Joking, definitely done, just waiting for building now :D
indeed, as i mentioned in some other thread, i do not need upgrade with my 1080TI Strix OC, it is just i want to, to get RT and such.
But this old girl is not done yet, my GF is grabbing my pc, for her 1080p gaming it is gonna be a great card for few more years.
This card i have is incredible...
wait there is talk about those caps, It was one of the reasons why i went with Strix, as they are not using those i think. I will have to look further into this later, yup strix has zero of those caps that were causing OC issues. So that card might be better at OC, strix cards use exclusively...
Actually, regarding this, you can get even more out of the GPU once you undervolt it. You find the lowest possible voltage to keep highest possible clock (base clock, not boost clock). By doing this you can get the GPU running cooler because more Volts -> higher hear. Now if you have lower heat...
tho, considering how Boost works, the fact having higher limits, better power delivery and better cooling should provide better clocks even without manually tweaking profile in MSI afterburner
oh really? and how would they even know that this happened? Considering it is literally a profile in MSI afterburner? Well screw warranty, i am not watercooling my GPU not to tap overclocking :D
i am sure you will be more than happy with your purchase, the marginal gains from overclocking are not worth chasing unless you are really enthusiast. We are talking about 1-3% difference maybe for much higher power usage and temps.
99% of people dont care, it is only the 1% that does...
Indeed as Spyder says, yes it will operate the same, if you dont overclock and it will run within operating temps, even tho those temps are higher. so for most people this does not matter as i posted above
If multiple well known reviewers says the card is not boosting as much and is running hot and loud, then it is most likely true. If some random Joe on reddit or other forums is saying it, i would take it with massive grain of salt. Fanboys will be fanboys.
That said for 3080 and 3090 zotac and...
Definitely AMD is something to consider, especially workstation wise, 12-16 cores with the single core performance of intel and much better multi core performance at much lower power usage. What is there not to like?
Right now there are not many true PS5 exclusives, especially if you have PS4. Ratchet demon souls and returnal i think are on PS5 only. But the promise of the whole console and the tech is the main reason i wanted one. Soo happy i finally managed to snatch one after half a year of searching for...
