Hello @btarunr Could you please advise where can the aforementioned NopBench or something equivalent to its capability can be downloaded from? Regards,

How about this method, starts at 4:53, more specifically @ 5:18 and its removal at 8:48:

RTX 4080 would indeed be a wise choice, but once next-gen AMD and NVIDIA GPUs hit the market there's going to be a huge shortage cycle all over again due to scalper bots and Crypto-miners. Current-gen GPU scalping/Crypto-mining was just round-two for them (round one was probably in 2017-2018).

The Thermaltake Core V31 case recommendation is horrible when taking into account the amount of heat 2 x GTX 980 Tis produce while gaming. Even more so when taking into consideration said GPUs coolers' form-factor, which will basically throw all that heat straight at the plastic window...

Hello. I've seen the same issue mentioned, but with the GIGABYTE R9 280X OC variant over a thread I've opened regarding its fan noise issue. Until someone that has first-hand BIOS flashing experience with this card comes along, it might be worth checking out the Driver disc that came with your...

That's actually sweet.

A question please, W1zzard: Could you take a look into this reply and share from your experience if that's a BIOS file you've also tried? If so, any ideas why that person isn't able to update his BIOS (maybe the BIOS switch is in the wrong position) ? Regards,

Thank you W1zzard, for this review (and the non-CF one). It baffles me why AMD puts its cooling solution's noise output at the 'Absolutely Not A Priority' category yet again. Same case was with its CrossFired HD 7990 card, even though its cooling solution features a triple fan configuration...

It was a loosing battle straight out of the gate then. :ohwell:

Thank you very much, W1zzard for the review! Also, your time spent back and forth with GIGABYTE, in order to try and get them to realize the importance of not only performance - but comfort (i.e: less operating noise when gaming) - is appreciated. Alas, this time around GIGABYTE chose to stand...

Thank you for the review. What kind of CPU cooler did you use for the installed build in the pictures? Regards, //Subscribed to thread.

Dunno if that's the thread to ask for it, but that would be sweet!

Sweet. Looking forward to the review. I'm guessing there won't be much chance in seeing another BIOS from there that's even less noisy.. P.S. Sorry about the wrong thread thing, thanks for going with it anyways :)

Hello W1zzard, and thank you for the review. Been a long time reader of techPowerUp, glad to be here. I've got a few burning questions if you please, regarding what's quoted above: My new gaming rig (listed in my specs) is missing only its GPUs. I'd love getting myself two GIGABYTE R9 280X...
