    Nice work. I've only ever used my CH341 for reprogramming motherboard BIOS chips, didn't realize the GPUs can be done the same way externally.

    I keep hearing ads for grammarly(?) talking about how it can write the papers for you and do your citations so you never have to learn how. Like, I thought that was the point of going to school?

    Can always try the good old fashioned CPU reseat too, I don't know if you've done that yet.

    Well, the 7800X3D is definitely beyond the scope of what the AMD Wraith Prism was designed to cool. There is a reason why those CPUs don't come with heatsinks. While it works, that's probably just because most games don't actually fully utilize...

    I'm going to consider that Frost Spirit, I like the looks, it has RGB and it's a pretty easy install.

    Yeah I have a couple of wraiths laying around and I only use them on really low end chips because those things scream lol There are a lot of really good cooler in the $25-35 range that would be a nice improvement.

    your cpu may boost higher for longer and if a game reacts to that then yes. horrorshow is right that what you have is fine, and its keeping the cpu well within spec but see above, and it might do it cooler. iirc those chips start slowing down...

    Your average gaming clock speeds might be a little higher with a better cooler, but the difference isn't significant. On my 7800X3D a dual tower air cooler like the AK620 has average gaming clocks of around 4825mhz (-20 offset, PBO) and a 360 AIO...

    Realistically, a 4070 is about 30% faster than a 6750XT depending on the games. I guess the value there depends on your budget.

    I would disable the USB 3.0 controller in the BIOS and see if the network works after that. It sounds like whatever ASMedia controller they used for the gen 3 ports took a dump which was very common on Z87/Z97 boards and might be dragging the...
  • LigTasm
    I seem to remember these boards didn't have native USB 3.0 and it was on some kind of add-in chip, I wonder if that has failed? Are all the USB ports flakey or just the 3.0 ones?
  • LigTasm
    Almost every single time I had a problem with USB and networking, it was unstable RAM or some kind of overclock/wrong voltage affecting the memory controller.
  • LigTasm
    Probably I'm the last one to know this, but just in case someone comes across this issue: the GCC will override the fan settings in AMD Adrenaline (and other control apps like Afterburner) and sometimes cause this error message. It took me 3...

    I'm going to install 6800 "moose" of a gpu. I was doing curls with it earlier today. Luckily, the new case has a gpu support bracket
  • LigTasm
    Oh yeah, it was a fine card and ran nice and cool. It was just plastic-y and needed a GPU support because it sagged a lot. But if you're on a really strict budget those cards are great, nothing wrong with it.
  • LigTasm
    You won't get 100% out of either card at 1440p until you upgrade, if I had to choose between the two of those cards I would take the 6800 though no questions asked. $40 gets you 20-30% faster card. Just be aware that 6800 is going to be huge...

    So are these things ever going to be in stock? Its worse than when a new GPU launches.

    LigTasm replied to the thread Thermalright HR10 works great.
    Cold temperatures are not 30-40C. Cold temperatures are COLD (like -20C). I don't really care if the NAND performs slightly better at 70C, what I want is the drive to not throttle and cause stuttering which it definitely does at 70C average temps.
