nVidia Super?

[acroig]

Im seeing about 30fps more in the division 2, runs about 1935-1950Mhz out the box. Highest I have seen is 76*C, and It is WAY quieter than my EVGA 1080 SC. Also my 1080 would coil whine, this does not. Might be CPU bound in this title even at 1440p, might have to OC my CPU.

Congrats!!

You are absolutely CPU bound lol.

Get a hybrid cooler for it and get off that trash reference cooler. You’ll be rolling 2050 easy.

I figured. For now I might get a better cooler and get to ~3.8Ghz. I am thinking of doing a Ryzen 3000 upgrade around christmas. The reference cooler honestly is far from trash, Ima stick with it for now.

Congrats!!

Thanks!

have fun with it

or grab a 3700x when they get a good working bios

Thank you, and I was thinking of going for a 3900X honestly, I want to wait at least 3 years till my next CPU upgrade and would like to have the 12 cores just in case for the future. I would have close to 3 Years with my chip around christmas.

Overclocked it to 3.7Ghz (stock Voltage, but set to Auto in Bios) right now and seeing temps @ 60*C max so far, but i have not stressed it. Im going to do some Prime95 with it when I eat in the next hour or so. So far the Stock cooler is pretty legit.

Congrats SsXeon

Thank you sir.

Thank you sir.

cool

division 2 likes cores

I flipped I coin and went with the 3800x and I could find one

and the 3900x prices are starting to get jacked up
they should have named it the 3900 ti as fast as they go OOS

now waiting on finding a x570 MB or a good c6h BIOS

I'll go 16 core next time in a year or two

Yeah i know about the crappy pricing of the 3900x, Hoping to wait and see prices settle. It seems 6 core is the sweet spot for gaming right now, as 8 cores do very little right now for gaming. Kinda hate this motherboards bios, its slow and even the boot time is pretty bad. Hope this BS with the tariffs and japan hating Korea stops around then so we arn't paying a lot for things because of supply demand.

Crashed at stock Voltage so set to 1.25 in bios and reads 1.2V in CPU-Z. Been running Prime95 for about 30m @ 75*C, 1500RPM fan speed. I need to change fan speed in bios to at least 2500RPM and temps should be better. Pretty impressed with this stock cooler. Was off this week so had some time to do things that make me happy.

 

[SSXeon]

Soooo CPU limited, running way faster now @ 3.7. Prime95 peaked @ 70*C after an hour or so, In game peaks at 53*C. Changed fan speed to 2500RPM, made a world of difference. It just feels smoother with this setup, very happy. For me its worth it, 1080ti people I would wait. Love being on the dark side.

I regret not grabbing a 1080 Ti. Sitting on a 1080, I think an upgrade to Turing isn't quite worth it especially 8 months into Turing.

For me it is 110fps in a game I love, words can't describe. From a former 1080 user it was worth it. It depends on the game. If you are still pondering, wait! April should be when the new cards come.

I'm so dumb to not overclock my CPU.

Glad you're enjoying it. IMHO the reference cooler is fine for those things, though I'd love to mess around with one under water and bios flash. I think you could get some pretty good results out of it.

I say go for it. After OC it's a bit faster than 1080ti plus you get ray tracing. Oh and vaseline filter, I mean DLSS, which will at least allow you to run ray tracing effects at decent performance.

 

[Megaman]

Nah... I'm going to hold off.

I'm not craving for 100 FPS in every game at 1440p.

Ghost Recon/Assassins creed Odyssey are the only titles where I drop down into the 50 FPS area. I could just OC the GPU and net me another 5FPS for that 60 FPS minimum level until next gen arrives.


Probably better to drop the $1k on the next GPU than on Turing.

 

[demo]

Fair enough. But shiney new things!

I know... and the upgrade itch is pulsating more and more each day.


Had the 1080 not been a champ of a GPU as it is, at 1440p, I'd be there now

 

[demo]

So the EVGA FTW ultra bios goes to 351W. Under water that thing must crank if the silicone is up for it. They're binned chips [with binned Samsung DDR6] so looking forward to seeing results.

I know the super isn't so impressive out of the box, but I think it's a good card for proper oc'ers that are willing to flash bios, put under water etc.

AMD needs to figure this **** out because I'm tired of as a consumer being taken advantage of by nVidia. Cash grab after cash grab. I'm glad the 2080 Super brings a somewhat realistic value to the 2080 Ti in terms of price/performance but it's still a ridiculous cost for what it is. I'd still go 5700 XT just to save $400 for 10% less performance.

I just refuse to buy and desire more price/performance but my boycott is a lonely one and even at these levels of price/performance there hasn't been a buying wall of resistance. There is demand for the Nvidia brand and their products.

I'm glad you agree with what I told you.

 

[Nunz]

I think there is more demand for high performance parts than loyalty to a brand. I don't care about NV's brand or even the company. It could get nuked tomorrow and every single employee fired; I care about having steady, high framerate and nothing from AMD supplies that.

 

[SIrPauly]

I feel brand or name recognition thinking plays a hand more-so with popular sku's like the 1050ti or 1060. Would consider you an informed, consistent gamer that goes beyond brand.

I'm not a framerate gamer at all costs but place my thinking more-so on features, quality of the features, flexible tools to find the right balance of immersion
