Really?? I have a Aorus 1080Ti (non extreme) which is in a Corsair 570X. I guess you have sensitive hearing as mine is pretty quiet even at 100% fan speed and max temps in load are 70c during most games when OC'd to 2025mhz on the core.
Sounds like your ambient case temps are very warm due to...
The Op asks for "similar performance" and "very little cash". New GTX 1060 3GB minimum £200+ - Not very little cash. Second hand 3GB GTX 1060 - £140+ Not very little cash. Performance is 50% faster than the GTX680.
GTX770 2GB/4GB on the famous auction site for £80-£100 is a refresh of the gtx680 and slightly faster.
mrbazmondo - Op states for "very little cash". 200 notes isnt very little cash :)
+1 Just over 2 weeks ago I was making £8-10 per day mining on my single 1080ti but today I'm lucky to hit £2 - £2.50 per day. Stopped mining this morning :mad:
I have the Asus ROG G752VM GC010T and the i7 6700hq max temps were 76c when playing Ghost Recon Wildlands for over an hour yesterday in the hot day we had. CPU never gets near 90c! The 6GB GTX1060 maxed out at 82c and there has been ZERO throttling.
Common sense needed. I have a laptop cooler...
The i5 7300hq will cause a certain degree of bottle-necking with the 1060 in certain games. Games like BF1 could be affected. You would be better going for a i7 7700hq or 6700hq CPU with a 1060.
Also, the 3GB 1060 is going to be a limitation in some games like BF1 due to the lower amount of...
I'll second that. Ive had two MSI Laptops I got rid of:
1st one was advertised as upgradeable in the dedicated graphics card (MXM) but turned out that MSI was wrong as confirmed in the link above by MiSJAH (Big respect to MiSJAH for his HUGE efforts in that thread).
2nd one with 1070 graphics...
After reading this thread from the very start, I sadly will not be buying any further MSI products, permanently. I had a GT72S 6QE Dom Pro G and sold it privately due to the MXM upgrade fiasco, instead of going through the hassle some of you guys have had to endure.
It isn't the first time I've...
Yes, do it.
As a buyer/seller on that specific auction site, make sure you pay by Paypal and its sent recorded delivery.
In my 11 years of using them, using the above method to purchase goods, I have found Paypal have always refunded me if the item purchased was not "as...
GTX1050ti Laptop - release date.
After some research, it seems there is no confirmed release date yet but a rumour on notebookcheck.net states, " Up to now the GTX 1050 Ti for notebooks is not released. Rumors speak of a release in early 2017".
This is the link...
Other peoples possible experience of the Alienware 17 Rx laptops having incorrect VRAM and whether I was missing something obvious.
That's the point of my question. :D
Dell Order Acknowledgement states
- NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 980M with 8GB GDDR5 :(
These GPUs are now soldered in the Alienware 17 Rx as they are moving forward with the separate Graphics Amplifier for upgrading gfx.
Both GPUz and 3DMark states it is 4GB VRAM.
Just received my Alienware 17 R3 and to my disappointment GPUz and 3DMark advise the GTX980M has 4096MB of video memory when I specifically purchased an 8096MB GTX 980M.:eek:
I checked Dell Alienware site again and when you go to build your spec laptop, they are offering it with a 8GB GTX980M...
+1 ☺
I have the money ready but not happy parting with that hard earned cash without some guarantee I am not going to possibly receive a faulty gaming monitor.
:confused::eek:
The R9 390 is very likely to be more power hungry than a 970 to the Ops PSU.
When under stress, even its baby brother (R9 380) draws 234W which is only 9W less than a 970!
A 390X draws 363W under stress conditions compared to 243W for a 970.
970 is still gonna be...
