No, don't do it. GPU bioses aren't supposed to be 'updated', best case is it works the same, worst case you brick it, there's nothing to gain.

@leon555 I presume you have vsync disabled?

Just had an hour or so messing around in this game, it runs weird on my system. Acts like it's CPU bottlenecked pretty badly, and yet CPU usage is very low (about 25%) and spread across all threads nicely. I'm getting 100-120fps almost regardless of graphics settings, 65-70% GPU utilization. I...

Enjoy the build ;)

No lol, almost all of us in this thread are hardware enthusiasts and very much into overclocking. Because of that we all understand the benefits of running cooler, which is why we are all confused as to why you think higher temps are better..

I mean... can't you see that you don't want to end up using all of the cooling potential. That's the wrong place to have a bottleneck imo. Having cooling headroom is a good thing, not a wasteful thing.

In a hypothetical universe where the best coolers we had were barely enough, then yes, in that scenario running the silicone as hot as it could endure would allow the highest amount of heat to be transferred. However back in the real world there's plenty of extremely good coolers so we have the...

Respectfully, I still don't grasp the concept of this thread.. If you aren't overclocking almost any cooler will do (meaning any deep thinking on the subject is a waste of time/energy).. Or if you are overclocking cooler is always better with almost no exceptions.. I'm not going to gain...

Hello, welcome! So from that it sounds like no combination of those parts seems to work? I'm thinking it's unlikely you have 3 dead cpus and 3 dead motherboards (possible for 1 blown mosfet on a mobo to kill any cpu inserted into it though). The issue is most likely with the memory, possibly...

Thanks lol, I'll keep it in mind :D Hmm, I need to start using just clear fluid and nice tubing myself, you're right, gunk and staining is no fun. Cable management is looking great from this side, if you're looking for suggestions the only small detail I'd change is to run the GPU power closer...

Ahh, I wish I could see that in person, I love tidy UV reactive builds :rockout: I unlocked the edit time on the first two posts :)

I'll just give a basic suggestion to hopefully get the fan hub working, the motherboard can control fans either with DC or PWM, so it's a good first step to go into the bios and check that the fan settings. Make sure the header you're using for the hub is definitely working in PWM mode, and that...

@FM34 Update the bios. You were advised to do this right at the start, and again multiple times in this thread. I'm going to close this thread if you continue to waste everyone's time.

Stahp! Don't make me thread ban you both after you gave good help to OP. :)

Please put it in the system specs section of your profile, then people don't have to search through the thread to find that post. https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/account/specs
