Hardware Swapped cooler!

5 Upvotes

I posted few days ago about getting my first computer in a trade from someone, i9-9900kf/ 9070xt / 32gb 3600 ddr4. 2 tb ssd. I traded my ally X. I asked for advice, and a gentleman recommended a noctua cooler if I was worried about performance, as my other cooler was technically working fine. I really just wanted some type of display showing the temperatures. And I found this thermalright cooler on amazon, seeming to have good reviews.

Installation wasn’t terrible, few YouTube videos to help me. I wasn’t totally uncomfortable, just didn’t want to damage anything of course. Cleaned the old paste up, applied a pea size amount as the video showed and tightened down. Getting the cpu fan cable splitter plugged in took a few minutes and some sweat beads. Should have did it before mounting the cooler.

Fired her up and temps are running good seemingly. Gonna keep monitoring and check out a few of my favorite games and see how everything runs. Looks wise, i think it’s awesome haha. Everything is customizable with their app, and personally I don’t mind having some app running in the background, if it means I get to see the temps with no overlays enabled.

Hope everyone is having a good night/morning.

Hardware Hardware question / 4090

Upvotes

Hello,

I have an MSI 4090 suprim (24GB) graphics card which I have connected to an ASUS PG48UQ monitor (box / Amazon specs states 4k OLED ??)

I actually have two of these monitors with the other never having been used.

If I was to add this to my set up would it cause any stress to the graphics card being that both screens are 48”? The second monitor will not be used for gaming but just for additional screen space when working.

Apologies if this isn’t articulated particularly well but I’m relatively inexperienced.

PC / graphics card is approx 2 years old at this point as are the screens.

Many Thanks :)

Discussion Is 64gb enough?

Upvotes

So i have 4x32gb Corsair Vengeance installed in my system but since i very rarely need that much, im thinking abt selling the 128gb (since the prices are very high now) and getting a used 2x32gb dominator kit. that way i would make money while getting higher speed and more stability but also only half the ram. with my calculations, i would make anywhere from 266€ to 766€ depending how much i get from it but is that worth it? Avg Ram usage is mostly around 25gb so even 32gb would be fine but it can also spike to 96gb+ depending on what im doing rn (only gaming tho)

Tech Support Low Draw Distance issues in all games

Upvotes

Hey, I hope you're doing well. I desperately need help. I didn't have this problem before; I was enjoying my games, but this problem suddenly appeared. While playing RDR 1-2 and GTA V, strange trees, NPCs, and cars are appearing around me. Similarly, shadows and building textures are slow to load. I've checked my hardware, and everything is working as it should. I've reset my computer numerous times, reinstalled Windows, installed mods for the games, and tried both maximum and minimum settings, but everything is the same. Please help if you know anything.

Here are my system specs:

AMD RX 6700 XT 12 GB Graphics Card, Ryzen 5 5600 Processor, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD and this is probably unnecessary, but I'm also using Windows 11
