DeltaZero Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 I was hoping someone would notice that! On a side note, computer build is back on. I need something so just going to do a much more budget build! Link to post Share on other sites

Lone_Bullet Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 DanCase started the a4v2 on kickstarter. Same case, minor improvements. 92mm vent at the bottom for aio cooling though! Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
Apex Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 I'm very happy with my 480, glad I went with it over the 1060, which at the time was more expensive. Now the 580's been released I'd go with that. I'm in two minds about flashing my 480 to a 580, but desperately don't want to bork anything, however people have done it quite successfully. Any 'k' series intel is only going to be worth it if you want to overclock. Are you going to overclock? You haz RX 480 ? Link to post Share on other sites

Xaccers Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 Aaargh! One of the Extricom switches at school has gone for a Burton so no wifi in the humanities block. Teachers are sending kids every 5 minutes to find out why they can't connect to anything. Their haggared faces show the horrors of having to actually be taught rather than the teachers just flick through a powerpoint presentation. Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 Always been a nVidia fanboy, but current events and budget makes me turn quite happily to that Ryzen 1600 / new radeon combo.Dumb me invested in an expensive G-sync a few months ago... I don't like proprietary tech much...Guess I'm going for that MSI 1080Ti Seahawk anyway after tax returns! Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I want that! or an EVGA 1080ti SC Hydro Copper Link to post Share on other sites

amateurstuntman Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 No, just a tragic, obsolete regular 1080. That I cannot water cool. Link to post Share on other sites

amateurstuntman Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 Thank you. Finally someone who understands. I need 2 BTW, water cooled or GTFO. Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 stretch goal of phase cooling? Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 Ghetto phase cooling. Get an old freezer, drill two holes in it and put the water cooling rad inside the freezer. The rest stays in the PC. Bonus, you can keep drinks in it. Downside, noisy. Link to post Share on other sites

Lone_Bullet Posted July 2, 2017 Report Share Posted July 2, 2017 I changed my mind about AIO GFX cards.source: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-3359186/nvidia-gtx-1080-aio-gpu.html And there are others. - Standard blower funnel cut op to fit waterblock, but not adapted to spread airflow over rest of card: no VRM's not cooled and memory insufficiently cooled.- Above reason makes the fan spin up quite a bit, which is loud as it's a blower fan. - NO additional 4pin PWM fan headers on board to connect supplied Corsair 120mm fan ( noisy fan, btw )- Pump if of old type and quite loud. - Alu radiator and copper waterblock will cause corrosion.Conclusion: you're better off sticking to conventional aircooled cards OR go fully custom watercooling.I'm sad now, since all 2 suppliers use ( less than perfect ) corsair as OEM watercooling.

amateurstuntman Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 Alphacool does a modular system that clicks together, Eiswolf I think it is called. They are half way between an AIO and a custom loop. If your card is supported it's not a bad call. Link to post Share on other sites
Lone_Bullet Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Did a folly. Got myself a nice Asus strix 1080 non OC. Problem? Can't use Alphacool, only FE is supported. FE is 30 euro's cheaper and has no RGB, but runs loads hotter and quite a bit more noisey. Fully custom watercooling it is, then. Since I've installed my own water piping and floorheating, I'm sure my pc won't be a problem. I just might thing about laying some extra piping in the pc room to extract warmth to the outside of the house. Bit like Linus's 'whole house watercooling' Another subject now: smartphones! Bit like computers, i guess. Problem: i have a sony Xperia Z. The original from 3-4 years back. It still works great but for one stupid thing. Everytime I'm on Facebook or a website and I'm scrolling past advertising, It becomes a lagfest. So basically I'd be upgrading for more fluent ads. Ridiculous, right? All other apps work great!
