Unfortunately yes, i got an ex-mining card. Ouch. What choice do i have now bro?  doh.gif

no need to fret

just try and clean the fans of the leftover dust

then if youre ambitious, reapply thermal paste on the GPU chip

Just re apply the thermal paste using Tuniq-TX2. Not much improvement. Only slight different. Idle about 42-43C and full load using Heaven benchmark about 74C-80C. The biggest different i notice is card cool down in faster rate compare to previously.

Wait! I already tear off the MSI sticker during re apply thermal paste. My warranty void?

depending on how you tore it, if still able to reapply in close to mint condition, you can always try RMA

try perform Furmark and see the temps

check the fan speed as well. tweak them as you see fit

its not just like what he said also, for example i like my monitor to produce more natural colours hence i go for IPS panel as well

TN doesnt show very natural colours, hence i find it not worth it nod.gif

awesome, but i see too much low texture being masked by the DoF and bloom

as usual, i dont understand why people like to overkill on bloom doh.gif in Bioshock Infinite, there was too much bloom in the mildly bright area, how is this even possible? its too blinding

Yeah that's the first major complaint. They mask too much of the low textures plus the bloom. Maybe CryEngine or Snowdrop will do better. And we technically don't have the required firepower in consumer grade gaming GPUs to run 8K properly now anyways.

download the Unreal Engine 4 Demo from techpowerup, test on 1080p cukupla

then tweak ini files to the maximum settings you can set brows.gif

streamyx itself or copper cable limitations

streamyx usually have crap upload speed anyways. eg 120KB/s download, top 25KB/s upload (even if download 400KB/s, upload limited to meagre 50-75KB/s) sweat.gif

Unifi have more steady download and upload, 1MB/s download, 900KB/s upload (as per my friend's current speed)

Where the heck u guys livin. even in freaking alor setar the other day my LTE on maxis was like 25mbps

the mediafire link i got for elemental will only download around 800KB/s. Dunno why they cant have torrent link like uniengine. Lol think i am one of their best seeders.

PJ area, limited by home 1Mbps streamyx as contract under father's name and hes not bothered to upgrade :/

im using DDL atm with a download manager, pretty steady 110KB/s speeds ill say as compared to torrents (unsteady 90-120KB/s)

Mine PMSes. I must be at a certain area of the house for uploads and downloads to be optimized. But when it does, it fully rips.

one of those random times where streamyx performance dips alot i guess

i do encounter that as well

just finish testing the UE4 Demo and making own webm

muh score, one stock, one OCed. see the minor change in FPS? laugh.gif
user posted image

as for video, link is per here as its pretty huge (30+MB, just in case someone on quota came in to check thread)
UnrealEngine4.webm

this is a smaller scale webm nod.gif (5MB)



EDIT: AcidRulez was right too, it mainly utilise 2 cores at most. my other 2 cores were at 30+% usage only

EDIT2: apparently the file hoster deleted my file lol so the link above is obsolete

<Rm2.5k. hence aiming the Zotac ti amp. but still another 3 weeks to go before getting 1.
Ghz Edition is the beast iinm, in our shore.
at this price point, for me going either 780ti or 290x is not wrong, but the thing to choose is, which Tech do you/I wan to go.
sadly we can't get the best of both world in 1 rig. else, i would love to marry 780ti with 290x.
nvidia (780ti)- Shadowplay, shield, Better frame-pacing (apply to single gpu?), TXAA (got a forumer told me that it blur out sucks iinm), Physx (recent game did not use this special effect?), best single gaming gpu for my budget.
amd (r290x) - mantle, tress fx wub.gif ,RadeonPro+Sweetfx (this is insanely a must for SP game),  cheaper and performance is not losing out much to the above, <- the only pros i'm able to figure out.

already got 7970, buy a Nvidia card then proceed to use both brows.gif

swap the cards whenever you feel like using AMD or Nvidia brows.gif

Just tried Assasin's Creed 4 Black Flag.

Wow, never thought the R9 290 is running below 60fps on max settings and 4x MSAA.

Crysis 3, Far Cry 3, Assassin's Creed, Tomb Raider, etc
So many games demanding GPU power even on 1080p.

wow
*
you do know AC series have bad graphic optimisation? theyre graphics are not exactly that impressive either

as for Crysis 3, the AA settings murders everything, otherwise should have no prob

FC3... i dunno abt this, but another badly optimised Ubisoft game afaik. i cant max it out either sweat.gif

Tomb Raider is fine for me, provided i dont open TressFX. a single swish of her hair makes my FPS drop doh.gif
