One of the handful things that use the highly anticipated DX12 multi GPU? The one that works even across cards and vendors.

My guess is with RT the card gets lower FPS and so other parts of the card are under less load. I noticed the same thing with stability tests on my old 660 Ti in FurMark. If I turn AA up, power consumption goes down. I bet if you set a FPS limit that is lower what the card does with and without...

That is what I thought when cable managing my retro setup. Yes, IDE cables are large, but flat cables can be folded and squeezed into small gaps.

By using the corresponding BIOS modding tool. Download ATI BIOS Editor - MajorGeeks RaBiT Bios Editor 2.2 Download | TechPowerUp RBE - Radeon BIOS editor (techpowerup.com) VBE7 - vBIOS Editor for Radeon HD 7000 series cards | TechPowerUp Forums And then flashing the modified BIOS onto the card...

Let's see if that ends up the same way as the eu energy guideline that scaled on memory bandwith (and not on GFLOPS or TDP or something unrealistic like that) New EU Energy Guidelines Could Cripple High-End Graphics Cards | TechPowerUp And that went nowhere.

You could check the BIOS with KeplerBIOSTweaker/MaxwellBIOSTweaker to see how much the card ireally supposed to pull over the 6-pins. By the looks of it (according to the BIOSes around VGA Bios Collection | TechPowerUp) the card has a power target of 179 W, a TDP of 225 W (from simply adding...

Pick your card: VGA Bios Collection | TechPowerUp (GTX 660 Ti 2 GB) The 80.04.4B.00.5A BIOS is for the DirectCU II model and is already the newest version. There is a 80.04.4B.00.5B release, but that is for the OC version that runs with higher clocks. And a 80.04.4B.00.94 release for the TOP...

All the mentioned pastes will be within 5-10 degrees of each other under these circumstances. Not enough to get a cool running card to overheat with a worse paste, or get an overheating card to run cool with a better paste. Just pick one that fits into your price range. Here some different...

If you want to keep the undervolt without having to redo it (or copy the settings) you'd have to write it on the card's firmware. Possible on older cards, but on newer ones they're encrypted.

It will obviously take a while to find one. It's an old card, so if you want to take it from another one, you need to wait for someone to sell one.

You could run PhysX on the second card to take that off the main card like in the old days ;) If cooling is sufficient, power supply is sufficient, and both run on the same driver, there shouldn't be any issue. I'm running a GTX 1060 and the Intel iGPU together in one system. Mostly to connect...

What i can see here is how incredibly well the 1080 Ti was, and how much the RTX 20 series brought features, but not raw rasterizer performance.

You can just cut away the metal of the case. But I would recommend taking the parts out for that, don't want any metal shavings where they could cause a short. check the hardware requirements of the software. 3ds Max 2024 Cinema 3D 2024 Inventor 2024 The latest version of 3DSMax requires...

As long as it has the same specs, sure. Either that or source a replacement. Could always get a broken card that has the component. A card "broken, sold for parts" should be super cheap.

Interesting that it's still an issue. I remember reviews of mounting brackets 15 years ago. Those 7900 GTX cards were absolutely massive. Personally I'm just using string to tie them to the top of my case. (at the end corner opposed to the output bracket) Perfectly capable to keep the card from...
