    The Ampere RTX 3070 Owners Thread

    My 3070 Gigabyte Gaming OC runs at a max core clock of 1860MHz in either BIOS, as seen in Afterburner & GPU-Z when running benchmarks & in-game. I was of the understanding that all 3070s will temporarily boost to >1950MHz but I'm not seeing this behavior. Is that normal? Temps are no more than...

    Metro: Exodus [E3 2017]

    Yeah me too but wondering if there is any need to install the standard version. Is it required for DLCs?

    Metro: Exodus [E3 2017]

    Hi. Quick question. On Steam, do you have to install the standard version or can you just install the enhanced edition to get all features?

    ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 360 AM4 Monting brackets

    The only review I’ve seen had about a 1°c reduction from MX-4 so I put it mainly down to the offset. If the cores weren’t boosting higher I think the temperature drop would be bigger too.

    ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 360 AM4 Monting brackets

    I've now received my Rev 4 mounting kit for my Liquid Freezer II 240 and it fits great on my MSI B550 Gaming Carbon Wifi. Loads of clearance for the caps at the top & no interference with the M.2 slot & heatsink. I've fitted it in the offset position, which I couldn't do before. I also bought...

    ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 360 AM4 Monting brackets

    They’re now showing a Rev 4 with a new mounting kit causing no offset fitting issues; https://support.arctic.de/lf2-240r4 Hopefully this should be available shortly for those awaiting a fix. It would be nice to get some new MX-5 thrown in too to refit it.

    Voodoo 5 6000 remade

    Yes I remember playing Half Life after swapping out from a 16-bit Voodoo Banshee to a 32-bit TNT2 Ultra & staring in awe at Barney's shiny helmet.

    Black Mesa 1.0 coming to Steam March 5th!

    Been looking for a reason to go through Half-Life again. It was the first PC game I played. I was blown away by the experience on the Voodoo Banshee accelerated graphics and Aureal A3D sound card. Seeing as it's currently half price on Steam, I'll give it a go.

    Help, AIO dosn't fit.

    AFAIK, those fans aren't suitable to put on a radiator as they deliver too low a static pressure.

    ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 360 AM4 Monting brackets

    Is it ok that the motherboard backplate hangs loose with the standoffs fitted but tightens up fine with the block fitted? I’ve only tried this dry so far. Also, the top metal mounting clip is just touching the row of capacitors without moving them. Could that cause an issue? I can’t use the...

    B550 - M2 slot choice

    I’m building shortly with an MSI B550 Gaming Carbon WiFi & Ryzen 7 5800X and have a 1TB PCIe Gen 3.0 NVMe M.2 SSD to use for the OS and programs. At some point in the future I will get a PCIe Gen 4.0 M.2 when needed. Is there any disadvantage to installing the SSD in the M2_2 slot and leaving...

    I’ve seen it done that way as well so that the fan cools the M2 slot rather than the VRM which ain’t a bad idea.

    New Dell IPS S2721DGF 165hz gaming monitor

    I ordered on the 8th Nov and received mine yesterday. I'm really pleased with it. It's smaller than I was expecting with the narrow bezel but looks classy. No pixel issues & after calibrating with my Color Munki the image quality is great with the 165Hz refresh rate being noticeable even with...

    Crucial 32gb (2x16gb) cl16 3600 BL2K16G36C16U4B - Single Rank

    If you run 4 sticks of this Crucial Ballistix 3600 (either 16Gb or 8Gb assuming they are both dual rank) so you are quad ranked, should it run at its advertised XMP timings (16-18-18-38)? Cheers.
