TheGoncas2 other channels that aren't (and are being paid by the sponsors) are literally breaking the law.

TheGoncas2 couldnt agree more

TheGoncas2 You do realize that not doing so is illegal, correct?

Yeah. And? That doesn't stop them from doing it.

this is why we like DF, they don't BS people ;)

lool

Dusty 5812 You do realise not saying "it's a sponsored video" is illegal, also which youtuber ever did that? If someone is advertising a prodcut doesn't mean they are fucking sponsored

Dusty 5812 most if not all techtubers have that sponsored content notice in all their sponsored videos, it is required in law.

SuperJosteen yup

Indeed. Even more, when you undervolt. Had my GTX 1080 Gaming X from MSI running at 0.8 volt with 1831 Mhz (instead 1.043 Volt and 1949 Mhz), but bumped the Memory from 5000 to 5500 Mhz. (fps dropped only by 5-7%~, don't notice anything thanks to G-Sync) GPU alone consumes only 125~ Watt power during Witcher 3. That's lower, than a RX 470, at almost double the Performance. My older GTX 1060 at 0.8 Volt went down to 85~ Watt. My whole PC with 2 HDDs, 1 SSD, i7 6700k @ 4.4 Ghz consumed around 150~ Watt during Rise of the Tomb Raider when i tested it. That's around the same Watt, a PS4 (Pro) consumes.

Evan VMR Yes, you basicly have 2 options there, which are very similar. Both use MSI Afterburner. 1. Use Afterburner, and see the graph "Power%". Example: You have a stock GTX 1080 with a Powerlimit of 180 Watt. If Power% hits 100%, it consumes 180 watt. If Power% hits 50% only, the GPU consumes around 90 watt. easy calculation. My 1080 MSI Gaming X has a Powertarget of 240 watt, so 50% Power% would be 120 watt. 2. HWInfo64. This baby can give you more sensor info, than you ever thought you have in your PC :P And this Tool has the abillity, to "send" those sensor data over to Riva Tuner Statistics server (which is the On Screen Display from Afterburner). HWInfo64 has the ability to read out the watt usage, not just from your GPU, but also CPU package, or also Ram modules. You can find this in sensor tab (not summary), scroll down to GPU, and there is GPU Power with a small Lightning symbol. It can show you the Current watt usage from the GPU alone, Min, and Max numbers too, and also Average. (those are teh same numbers i would get with method #1, calculating the Power%. Press Settings there, Tab "OSD (RTSS)", scroll down to "Total GPU Power". Either the normalized or non-normalized (not sure whats the difference, but it's only 1~ watt off). Click it, pres "Show Calue in OSD", done. Then you will get this shown in MSI Afterburner OSD, below the Afterburner own data. If you want to use more data out of HWInfo64, they will all be in the same Line. So you can adjust that with "Line:" and "Column:" to your taste. i Personally let it show "GPU Power" (which is the value in %) and "Total GPU Power" (which is the Watt value), so i have both there. Edit: If you rightclick on the systemtray symbol --> Settings, you can activate "Minimize Sensors on startup", that's the autostart.

Pretty sure Nvidia gets hate for their business practices. Their intel is amazing and probably have the best graphics engineers in the world

Hey, i also have a 1060 and i was wondering at what core/memory clocks were you running when using 0.8v?

*German Lehmann I think i had +400 or 500 on Memory (4400-4500), whatever is stable for your memory. And Core Clock Boost after warmup was at 1876 Mhz or so, maybe 1850~. I would try 1850, and see how far you can go up. or down). Every chip is different

because they are pretty much the same silicon

Indeed - no one should buy any laptop that still uses pre-pascal GPUs anymore. The better option is to wait until pascal era models get cheaper.

iau yeah and it only costs your mortal soul

Person Guy Fair point. An Asus 1080p GTX1060 laptop with G-Sync costs around $1400 right now. I think it's reasonable.

iau if it was $1000 i'd say it's worth it but for $1400 i can't say it is

I thought exactly the same thing!

Yep, I'm doing that right now.

@@AzwadAbid Im running my laptop with 1070 on 4k lmao

bob dylan Maybe some overclocking would help ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

i wish i had a gf

i wish i had friends

i'll be your friend ༼ つ ಥ_ಥ ༽つ

I died ;D

I only had to sell the child's kidney lucky me

he he he

I had money in my pocket, very lucky me.

I only had to sell the kidney and chils of my neighbor

I went through boot camp for a GTX 1070 laptop.

Blag Cog base model;)

ps4 pro, scorpio, 55inch hdr tv, couch and money left over!

I got my HP omen 1070 for $1799 with 3 year extended warranty. This machine is amazing, better and quieter than the alienware I had.

It was a bit difficult to find, but the price is more or less what xdhwowbob said (US$1800). It's not that expensive, especially if you consider that it packs a 4k Gsync display.

You can get a sager for $1700 with better build quality, fan control, and better gpu/cpu overclockability. The gpu comes stock 1911mhz core speed if that says anything

in germany there is a rx 580 4gb laptop with a ryzen 1500 cpu for 900 euros/ 1000usd.

+Ali_John I am not sure but I think Fast sync works only above your monitors refresh rate.

They say that but i still get the benefits below 60 fps where my monitor is 60HZ.All you need is Nvidia inspector and try it.

This video was sponsored by HP, so theyre not gunna waste time talking about something the laptop doesn't use.

fast sync is a bit weird. it basically vsyncs at twice your monitor refreshrate. at least on my 75hz monitor fastsync always capped the framerate at 150fps and did some weird stuff. moreover youtube got super buggy in fullscreen for me with it enabled

I open it on specific games only so no effects on windows or any media player etc.The whole reason i use sync methods is to get rid of the tearings.Vsync gives huge input lag while fast sync gives little.Fast Sync does work below 60 fps for tearing.My latest example is Quantum Break.On 970 it does not play well without upscaling is on.I get 30-40 fps on high settings and it clears any tearing in that range. Still won't use both for any multiplayer game for input latency.

1800p on ac odyssey got me 60 fps, and it looks the same as 4k(but native 4k run 40 fps). Mobile 1070 ftw

Zachary Goterch why would you buy a pc in the next couple of weeks when Nvidia already confirmed Volta before the end of the year?

sm4sh3d Isn't that only for the high end though, or is that also for the mainstream as well? As far as I know the only Volta product announced is the Tesla V100 but I could be missing something.

It's for the professional market first yeah, but think Maxwell and Pascal, Nvidia didn't take long to release consumer gpus only 2/3 months later pretty much. If they come out in september or october as expected, they are likely to pull out consumer tier gpus for january. And Volta might have 50-60% faster performance than Pascal, it's a quite a big deal. I'm personnally keeping my G751JY with GTX980M for the next 6 months, Pascal mobile is great, but I would be mad to buy a laptop with a 1070 or 1080 and see Volta coming out 6-8 months later. Unless you really need a new rig, I think it's worth the wait, especially considering that Volta will last much longer than Pascal

Actually you don't get full performance , I believe it was around 80% but you can run a test on userbenchmark, and compare your score to the average and the highest. My sager's laptop 1070 came at a base clock of 1911mhz. And wow I've never experienced a CPU bottleneck even on CPU taxing games like black desert, as my cpu never goes above 60% neither GPU.

that sounds like your pc problem dude, maybe a driver issue.

No.

Because not many would be willing to pay over $1000 for it.

omega53 fuck of

Computexpert well im in the military and deploy, so i have to make do.

Computexpert thanks, so the gtx 1070 with g sync is a waste or no?

Computexpert yeah thats my plan, and i want it to be future proof for 2 to 3 years. my last laptop was an alienware that i bought in 2010, it held up well till now lmao.
