See ya in 5-7 years GPU companies. Maybe by then you'll come up with something that's actually worth getting for the mid/higher-mid tier users. So much hype and shitting on NVIDIA and in the end there's no mic drop. Just a "standard" mid/higher-mid tier card with bloated prices/margins.

Okay, gotta say, thank you for the tip @Icon Charlie! I switched out the back fan to exhaust and temperatures dropped around 5-10C!! I also just upgraded my monitor to 1440p from 1080p. I can play near max settings + raytracing at stable >60FPS with lower temps than before. Thank you everyone...

Okay, I will definitely try this when I get the moment too. I played around with MSIAfterburner and DOOM Eternal + Cyberpunk 2077. On near max settings + raytracing I was getting ~60% CPU use and ~50-60C CPU temps, GPU fluctuated between ~70 to ~95 % use and ~60-70 C temps. I'll check if...

Arctic Liquid Freezer II stays winning with best price to quality/performance ratio and no tacky rgb

Just finished upgrading my whole setup. You can see in my system spec my new build. Haven't fully tested it out but excited to see the performance jump from my previous 7yo rig...

30 series cards just stay winning. The whole 40 series debacle will make wait until 60-70 generation cards until I'm even slightly interested in upgrading with NVidia
