That's what I saw. I just changed the resolution lines to 3440x1440 so it really shouldn't be problematic.

Hey guys, Just got a 2080 and wanted to fire up Crysis in all it's glory. Ran into an issue - trying to set 3400x1400 in full screen doesn't work properly. I also tried editing the config file and no luck. It just wont accept the resolution. At best it works in windowed mode but then its...

Hey guys quick question on cooling. Going through my stock of parts and found an unused Noctua NH-C12P SE14. Would that be better for overclocking in the Ncase than my existing NH-U9S? I currently have it vertical with two fans pushing upwards and a third fan outside the rear vent as an...

drescherjm - Yes. Just using Task Manager. That's still odd though... How would one begin tracking this down?

Anyone else having similar issues or can comment?

Hi! Can anyone advise on my hard drive? I've had it in my new rig for maybe 6 months but it's fairly clicky/loud and it is CONSTANTLY at 11-20% write even when my computer is totally idle. Below is the output from CrystalDiskInfo. Nothing reports as bad but... what the hell is causing all...

Nufenen Thanks for letting me know! I'm not looking to water cool - only air. I've not been able to really get good feedback on these two cards - I would have thought more people would have jumped on these for the M1

Has anyone tried the Gigabyte 1080 mini or Zotac 1080 mini? Curious to know if the Gigabyte has height issues and which one is better and/or quieter overall for the case.

What size fans are used? I believe the Gigabyte is a single 90mm.

Does anyone have any experience/comments on the GTX 1080 mini cards? I see that Gigabyte and Zotac are the only makers of mini versions. They seem amazing for the ncase M1 as far as airflow is concerned. Are there any cons in the mini cards? I'm leaning towards the Zotac due to the dual fan...

My NH-U9S is already pointing up and I have two fans on it already - exhausting air up the top vent. My rear fan is exhausting and its a pain to change it due to space so I'm a bit lazy to do that change. The HDD change is in effect - I'm going to put the 2 HDD into my other box in the living...

I'm confused too haha. Trying the rear fan as an intake or rotating the heatsink has to be one or the either. I'll think about it a bit first. I don't remember if I have another fan header. Though I'm not sure if another intake, or if an exhaust is more effective? Do I need more cool air, or...

Wow I'm totally full of typos. Yea its a 4790k Temps are not transposed. OpenHardware Monitor shows 56C for CPU and 40C for GFX. Something is baking the main area and I'm thinking about reapplying some thermal paste. The GFX card has fans blowing directly on it so I imagine it would be lower...

OMG sorry - yea the NH-U9S not the NH-U12S. My temps are: HDD 29-34C M.2 drive 50C CPU 50C idle - maxes over 80C when gaming and I don't have intensive games GPU 38C idle - is usually OK at load, maybe 50C or so. I want to OC a little but any kick up in voltage is just not possible without...

Hello Gents! Looking for any recommendations on improving cooling in my v4. Overview - only putting what I think is relevant to cooling. My signature should be up to date on components. Noctua NH-U12S - two fans blowing up to push air out top vents Rear fan exhausting Two 120mm fans at bottom...
