Update: Tried the latest Nvidia drivers... no change. I take it the chip on the GPU that GPU-Z reads is not giving up it's data on this one :D

Hi all, As the title says, GPU-Z 2.52 is not reading anything from "Board Power Draw" down to "Power Consumption %" with my Asus Strix 4090. Tried bios flash to 0050 - no change Card came with bios 0088. Any ideas guys?

Sadly these drivers do not support Trim in raid arrays... i'm afraid we all got a bit over excited over a "wording error" in the documentation... With these drivers in raid mode Trim commands are passed to single drives only, not arrays ;) Back to OP: 2x X25-v >> 1x X25-m but only for...

Well if you have a blown transformer they can be replaced by a competent hi-fi technician and it should not cost you too much....

WANT :rockout: :D

Great stuff :toast: I'm trying to get a 5870 lightning bios to work on ;)

The model is: Thermaltake ISGC-V320 That is definitely not a 5870 in the pic as the DVI slots are different.... looks like a GTX 285. Review 320W of cooling power :respect: You just need some scaffolding in your case to mount it :D

Jesus! What a monster! 1kG :eek: I can hear my graphics card groan under the strain already :D

Dude. The problem here is obviously case air flow. That Stupid Gateway case does not even have an air vent in the top :) It might look cool but as a high performance PC home it is next to useless. Just get a cheap tower like an Antec 300 and a few fans and you will be amazed at the...

The Vapor-X solution is the best / most cost effective air cooling solution available at the moment. If I had to go one better I would grab a Scythe Setsugen and a Thermalright Type 4 mofset heatsink ;) Edit: Cheapest solution: flash your non vapor-x 5870 with the vapor-x rev 2 12.019...

Well I know for a fact that their bios are compatible ;)

Good stuff :) All we need to get now is an core / memory unlocked clocks version of 019 ;) The author of RBE nearly cracked it today but it is not quite there.... maybe later on this week... more testing required! :respect:

I flashed my vanilla XFX 5870 to the Vapor-X (rev 2) 12.019 bios without issue. The Vapor-X fan profile works a lot better with the stock cooler as an added bonus. You get much better cooling for only a slight increase in noise :) Edit: RBE version 1.25 is being worked on which...

.... any XP x32 love with these drivers? :)

Nnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooooo.....!!! Too many people are frying their cards and running up huge electricity bills on this one ;) Seriously though this GPU test can pull well over 80 amps so if your card has any weaknesses or any VRM sinks are not firmly attached then don't be...
