Sale pending. Will still be posting photos back to the thread before I ship out.

Link here to the product page: https://www.msi.com/Graphics-Card/GeForce-RTX-4090-GAMING-X-SLIM-24G I have one of these in like new condition. Selling because I'm going to LV in August for my anniversary and it's more expensive than I planned. $1600 + Ship Located in Reno NV area...

I doubt the WHEA errors are unrelated but it's hard to say for sure at this point. Try turning PBO off first and see if that helps.

Make sure you are running the latest BIOS and have all drivers and system updates installed. WHEA errors are typically due to unstable RAM or CPU. If you have any manual overclocks set then try pulling back to stock settings and test. If that doesn't help then you can try: Disable PBO Disable...

Assuming I have valid reasons to do so what is the link speed when running a single GPU in the system and having it reside in the second PCIE16x slot? The manual doesn't adequately explain this and shows 'NA' for this configuration. I've read conflicting info on whether this would be 4x or 8x...

It was on steam. The disconnects were such an annoyance that we ended up setting difficulty back to the easiest setting just to get past a couple spots in the game that longer than others. When you get dropped it makes you restart the whole segment and not just restoring from your last checkpoint.

Sapphire nitro + 6800xt. Pushing clocks much higher resulted in successful passes of 3dmark however I could not loop it for more than 5-10 mins. These settings were much more stable.

$649 is the lowest I've paid recently for a 6800xt and that was a reference card on a stock drop. You'll find one for $600 eventually. Sometime in 2023 perhaps. lol

I've seen a 1299$ and $1319 6800XT in stock for multiple days recently. Sapphire pulse and gigabyte windforce. Both are decent graphics cards. You have to pay attention but they are out there. I've also gotten several cards off the AMD stock drops on Thursdays. Yes I mine with them. Yes I don't...

Recently finished halo 2 co-op which was fun except for the gdam server disconnects which were at times rage inducing. Going to start halo 3 soon, possibly Sunday, and will try co-op on that one too. They really did a great job of enhancing halo 2 graphics in the cutscenes and in the game. Was...

I could be wrong here but I think that was a bit of a blip. Previous to that interest rates were higher but not double digit territory for the most part. What we've seen in more recent times is pretty consistent rock bottom rates forcing everyone out of savings.

These are the same sorts of goofballs that end up getting over extended and holding on until the bottom to end up with nothing. If you can't keep a fresh perspective then playing with individual equities, especially with more than you can afford to lose, is gasoline and matches waiting to...

When it comes to projects like this they fluctuate wildly. If you want, keep after it, since it may go back up. I've been setting my two ryzens on haven for a while and am just leaving them there. It's my speculative bet and the algo is pretty efficient to mine on cpu. I've mined xmr on...

It's an old Steve Martin movie. If you aren't at least 40 years old then you probably will have no idea. lol

Since it seems to overclock very well I'd keep it and just either use some paint and a model brush or a black permanent marker to help fill in the chips for now. Better than leaving it like that.
