KZfaq keeps starting this video when im asleep….

“I’m gonna keep my mouth shut until I can do more research because I don’t want to put bad info out there” this is one of the large reasons I watch this channel. Everything I have seen from Steve is incredibly solid and I absolutely dig it.

You didn’t need LN2 fog or an AC. You needed to set the RGB to blue.

In the words of his previous stream: Yeah we can hear you fine

I love how tech tubers all reference each other - less about competition more about mutual support and benefit to the wider community.

18:37 "sounds like a bandsaw.." and camera zooms onto the paper getting nibbled at by the fan lol

I just keep rewatching these. I enjoy listening to your rambling while working, sleeping & eating

Steve only hires people with simillar hair to his..

Wish I could have been there for this one!.. Great job as always broski!

DUDE! i love your channel. You guys are the best. I listen to you and linus and others while I work from home. Thank you for making my days bareable with great content

Your voice just calmed the hell out of my dog. He was acting crazy all night! Thanks man

I love Steve vs Jay competitions! Two of my favorite KZfaq channels.

I feel like I gained 10 IQ points from witnessing that cardboard shipping tube used to keep the superlong ethernet cable organized.

What i really learned from this stream - if you need a fan for a short time, use a screwdriver as a stand 👍

So happy I decided to watch this now, managed to jump on the mouse mat! I had just emailed you guys about that the other day, I was expecting it to be a christmas present to me from me. Thanks! looking forward to RIPGN/Jayz Edit: got it on Friday, this thing is great!

Your videos are always excellent. Keep it up!

Really interesting to finally see a nitrogen over clocking of a GPU, always thought it was a parlour trick, but I get it a little bit more now, and that it has a legitimate place in demonstrating GPU, and CPU overclocking.

Yes, the big tank that says liquid nitrogen on it, is infact liquid nitrogen. Great question, chat.

12:20 & 1:26:04 are an example of the correct BoM caps to use to prevent power noise at higher clock frequencies. Some cards unfortunately did not realize the importance of these little caps. 3:32:33​ is an example of the use of all MCLL caps. Edit: There are different types of POSCAPS 220's and 470's and 330's - Higher number has more top voltage (operating range) that also added noise (specific filtering). I used 470's when I replaced the old caps on my PS3 60GB. 1:59:09 Steve reads the official statement from EVGA 2:01:00 Example of pre production with no MCLL caps from EVGA.

"If you have a 30 series, hello to my fellow KZfaqrs." /dead

I always wanted to put my PC outside when it's -40 and see what my temps would be. Or at least intake cold air from inside through a window or something. Too worried about damaging my parts though.

G'day Steve & Andrew, Awesome camera work on the 8K FPS counter in Quake II Andrew, nVIDIA: Frames wins games also nVIDIA: we are first with 8K gaming with the RTX3090, Look 12FPS using LN2

I just got lucky and found one of these cards in stock at a micro center today (bought it). As I was walking around in the store there was a fella on the phone talking with a friend of his asking the friend if he wanted him to buy the card. As he was doing this I began looking for a store rep to help me get the card out of the locked compartment so I can buy it. 😁

When the cards released i think the power circuitry was an issue with certain brands. Not sure if this was fixed but 2 months later ive picked up an EVGA RTX3090 Gaming ULTRA and it has two of the weaker caps. Even though it draws the most power stock. Whatever optimisations needed to happen have obviously taken place as my card has been fine(the card lasted just over a month, i went with the asus tuf 3090). Although if i dont set a fps limit the card will crash to desktop when streaming. ^^

Gamers Nexus such a sympathical Dude!! Greets from Europe :D

You have integrity and that's one of the main reasons I come here. The mad scientist experiments are another.

it might be over kill but after a re paste i've almost always taken a shop light ya know the handheld block type set on the table then check the card again lookin for light between the gpu&cooler

3:02:11 Ohoho, look it's me! Thanks for answering my question. To those wondering, yes an 8700k @5GHz will be bottlenecked by the 3090. Looks to be by around ~4-10%

That shirt is bad ass. Still waiting on mine to come in the mail. Your people assured me its coming.

Man I remember the old days when Over Clocking actually meant something, you could get real performance boosts out of GPU's and CPU's back then. Now, the cards run at max boost by themselves so OCing is pretty meaningless.

Awesome video. So cool to watch you do this stuff. I tried to buy the tool kit but it says it’s back ordered to mid January???? That sucks. But awesome channel thx for the content

1:23:20 di0eelectric grease is just silicone grease and when sold by that name you can get large amounts for cheap. its also O-ring grease.

“Just vaseline for insulation” @4:35 Nailed it. Just learning the ropes. 🤣

what screen are you using here in the stream? it looks awesome.

how do i get youtube to stop showing me this video like it's the world's default auto play video? this is driving me bonkers

Just watched this whole vid and have no clue at all how 4 hours just went that fast

Amazing to think i was watching this before i could even get a 3090, and now i've had one for well over a year.. Yikes! Where did 2021 go, bro?

For the person asking why Steve uses vas instead of dielectric grease, is price... Same functionality, but vas is WAY cheaper, lol. Dielectric grease isn't practical, cost wise for high volume like routine LN2 overclocking.

@Gamers Nexus have you ever considered using a hydrophobic fluid to seal your hardware from water at a nano level

What is the max power draw on the Evga Rtx 3090 ftw3 on O.C. mod when you max out the power slider? Haven't heard any info about that on video.

This live was truly amazing

Do you think some of the add in board partners will start to adopt Nvidia's new split cooler design by making the back half of the cooler a blower style to remove some heat completely out the back and then using the front fan or "fans" to blow the remaining heat out the sides instead of Nvidia's pass-through design? :/

KZfaq always brings me to this video once I start falling asleep.

Loved the stream, I have a 1070 strix, I am thinking of the new 3080 strix, but now I'm worried about these capacitors issue.

I'm definitely gonna overclock my thermal paste.

Get one of those cheap window a/c units, gut it and put the evaporator right in front of the gpu with a bunch of fans on it.

YOOOOO! Hilltop Hoods! Shout out from the "City Of Light" Seriously though, that totally caught me off guard, locally I wouldn't bat an eyelid at someone being a Hoods fan it's practically expected :P , they're straight up legends here in their home town of Adelaide, but it always excites me a little to see an international fan, not that I don't know they've done well abroad, it's just a little different is all.

Your videos are somehow a better fight against insomnia than a valorant stream

I was just thinking. If you used CO2 instead of nitrogen, you could still cool the chip while enriching the indoor atmosphere for growing certain types of plants.

Oh yes!!! #RIPJAY vs #RIPGN is on baby!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Can't wait for the liquid cooled on ice / dry ice and the grand finale on liquid Nitrogen!!! 🥶

Regarding the plastic backplate: you might actually be surprised. I'm not saying it works, but don't discount it on principle; look up AN11113 from Nexperia regarding thermal design for LFPAK MOSFETs. It's now obsoleted as a design guide, but the data remains interesting. They tested black plastic, bare aluminum, and black anodized aluminum as enclosure materials in contact with the PCB assembly and found that plastic still has a significant heat sinking effect particularly in topside configurations, and may actually outperform polished aluminum in some circumstances due to superior radiation.

"prices might go down over time" woo. Those were the days

Steve is a man of culture liking Trivium

I have one of the shirts i've never worn it. I keep it in the back of your closet. I've been with you since 600,000 subs. No one can beat your technical experience. You fkn owned Linus. That was kinda funny to me. He knows your always right.

You could get an extra 100Mhz on the GPU with an RGB strip on the PSU.

Right ON !

Just an observation about your online store as of 9/26. You probably should remove the note that the Medium Modmats are in stock and shipping. It's the first thing I saw and was thinking of purchasing one but haven't seen the "Sold Out" change for a while.

Congratulations on 1 million subs!!! Love the T shirt!!!

How much was the peak power consumption?

Yes you sound great

At least Stov paid for all the Liquid Nitrogen on the floor 😅

I always wake up to gamernexus overclocking some shit on stream lmao

I can hear you!

Wow just casually pouring liquid nitrogen into multiple bottles with no protective gloves on his hands 😅 no fear!

3:02:15 epic cool reaction to the frozen safety valve 😂👌

First I've seen this video. Cool stuff even if it's 3 years ago. 🤙 Still rocking my 1070 to this day. (I really need to lay her down to rest.)

GIMME SOME TOTS!!! I remember a post on Twitter I think? Where you and Joe were eating tots but I doubt that's where it started. I'm guessing it was in full swing by then.

Ok, so noticed Gamer Nexus’s FTW3 has 2 MLCC’s on the PCB (better than most but it’s no ASUS TUF). Question is will we see ASUS TUF’s with 6 MLCC’s on the GPU PCB breaking the records?

is that a uline industrrial packing table with maple top

Is that the same kind of liquid nitrogen heat exchanger that the naked miner in Chernobyl were installing to prevent meltdown of the reactor?

Thanks

No, you multiply the eyes by one another: 12fps x 12fps = 144fps - Boom.

I got a first edition GN mouse mat the moment they first were announced and _still_ have yet to finish the mod I started months ago :-/

Fall asleep ALWAYS end up here.

Just curious why he didn't raise the voltage slider when he did the air overclocking. I have the evga 3090 ftw3 ultra and I have it raised, now I'm thinking should I lower it back.

I'm really interested in seeing the performance metrics comparing a 2080 (or Ti) overclocked to a 3080's power draw and a 3080 underclocked to match a 2080(/Ti)'s power draw, and compare the performance of the two when power levels are equal.

"remember Joe got the record not Steve. So he still has to do his" ;) #ripgn ahaha. Love the chanel man. Between you, Jay and Linus. My KZfaq is filled with content ♥️

This dude is a genius

Too bad everything I wanted to get on your website it on back order till January. Though your videos will help with the time delay.

have you thought of bringing on kingpin onboard? that'd be really cool

Steve skipped my Superchat for another viewer who spent more money. I thought Steve wasn't a shill. It shouldn't matter that one viewer spent $120 and another spent $20. I expected better ethics from Steve. I stood in line but he walked past me. I was planning to do several Superchat's but decided to turn off KZfaq. I forgive Steve. I'm not perfect either. Fyi. I had bought two mouse pads during the live stream and I previously bought the 2.0 GN tool set, Medium mouse mat that I plan to sell on eBay before Christmas along with a mouse pad and a few surprises in the shipment. Whoever wins will get more than they expected. GN, LTT, Jayztwocent, TechDeals, Carey Holzman have been a huge help. learned a lot.

Can you please review the Thermaltake distrocase 350P. I understand they aren't your favorite company, however, it looked absolutely sick when they presented it and I'd love to buy it if it performs well in my upcoming build. Thank you!!

Do a dual loop cool. 1st dx cooling coils. Next closed loop purged dry nitogen at +5psi over all the boards... ?

When you were pushing the memory speeds, wouldn't it always apply even if it's erroring with this G6X VRAM? Or is it still possible to crash the card and it only handles artifacting? Jc

Hey Steve i'm just here to Say... Thank U! Thanks for all your Informativ Stuff and for being a super Chill and Cool Guy. Stay Safe and don't change yourself :) Huge Bear hugs for u !

If you point the fan at the card and not away from the card it may cool the memory better.

Did this score even get submitted? I cant find it on the leaderboard...

I’m so skimpy with my materials. Steve triggers my metaphorical OCD every time he dumps a gallon of nitrogen on the floor rather than just use a fat funnel or something.

Here are excerpts from a couple of Igor's Lab articles on the 3080/90 ... "Igor's Lab Aug 27, 2020 = NVIDIA has also completely sealed off the evaluation drivers this time. I don’t even think Furmark, let alone Time Spy, is running anymore, but only NVPunish (a stress testing program) for the thermal tests... from a board partner’s point of view it is of course quite strange when you produce something you don’t even know how fast it will be in the end. Igor's Lab Sept 25, 2020 - “reference board” PG132, which can also be understood as a so-called Base Design. Especially the backside and especially the area below the BGA is interesting. What is interesting about such drawings and the so-called BoM (Bill of Materials) is that you are offered different placement alternatives. Below the BGA we see the six NECESSARY capacitors for filtering high frequencies on the voltage rails, i.e. NVVDD and MSVDD. The BoM and the drawing from June leave it open whether large-area POSCAPs (Conductive Polymer Tantalum Solid Capacitors) are used (marked in red), or rather the somewhat more expensive MLCCs (Multilayer Ceramic Chip Capacitor). ...According to the list and specifications of Nvidia, both are possible... This also applies to the question of whether the BoM was subsequently changed again to completely exclude the exclusive use of POSCAPs/SP-CAPs." From reading the full articles it sure sounds like Nvidia may not have provided working drivers to AIB partners until late in the development process and may have known about capacitor issues, since the FE cards have 4 poscaps and 2 mlcc's ... but it appears the BoM may at one point indicated that 6 poscaps would work? Would love if GN could confirm any of what is in Igor's work and if I am reading it correctly?

@GN how come when Linus played doom on an 8K tv it looked waaaay "smoother" and had a locked 60~ fps frame rate? yet under LN2 on a pc rig, it struggles to hit over 15?

The KZfaq channel "Tech Ingredients" built a cheap anechoic chamber that works pretty well!

I'm assuming my i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz, would throttle any new gen GPU whether it's the Nvidia 3000 series or AMD Big Navi series. I have a Samsung Odyssey G7 2k 240hz monitor. Looking to run games at 2k max settings. Currently have a RTX 2060 super.

The days of overclocking being a good skill outside of competitions is gone.ast good overclocking was the 700 series

That moment when Steve talks about messing around with 'old hardware' and lists the components in your daily driver....

One question, I know its not about this card, a 2060sc at what temps should be the best???

If only we had a future seeing device we would of all known it was about to be one of the worst times to start a new build … poor guy building a new pc from his last one 8 years ago lol man probably still doesn’t have a gpu …. Love the channel brother

not as crazy as the A/c hook-up but close😄

If I let KZfaq just play, it always plays this video eventually.

wouldn't you start reaching diminishing returns at those low temps? even getting to the point of harmful returns?

When's the recap coming??
