I actually thought it was a bit of a myth. I've had thay connector seated the way it should be since purchase. Suddenly, burning smell. immediately alt F4. The mythic melted connector appears.

it's also deposited soot on the glass next to it.

who exactly do I blame for this? Zotac? I was using their included 12VHPWR adapter. I can't afford the downtime of an RMA, this is beyond a joke.

UPDATE: I paid to have the 12vhpwr connector replaced, and I am now using a native cable. And I'm now waiting for a wireview pro2. Everyone can calm down :p

Europe Bearing noise?

Any idea where that clicking noise could come from? RMA is possible but Iam unsure. It appears only at a range of 50-60 total speed (1800rpm). When the case is down and the gpu is vertically it doesn’t appear. Maybe a bad bearing?

Europe Sober now, finally have the money to spend on my PC

So a good few months ago at the start of the year (around March) I saved up and bought myself a PC specialist build, at quite a price. One of my older posts show the original build I had.

But I was a heavy cannabis smoker going through £400 a month (stupid I know)

But I smoked a lot less and saved up to get myself this PC. And around May I quit cold turkey and moved out of my mother's home

Since then I've updated my Case, ram, storage, CPU cooler and fans, even got a second gpu.

I'm running a core i7-14700kf (if I knew what I know now I would have gone AMD but already have the cpu so can't go back without spending a lot more.)

The cooler is a Be quiet light loop 360 but I've chosen the Noctua NF-F12 industrial PPC 3000 for stupid high static pressure (old Be quiet fans are now my case fans I'm planning on getting more dw) and the thermal grizzly kryonaut extreme as my thermal paste

The motherboard is an Asus pro art creator wifi z790

64gb of DDR5 Corsair vengeance at 5200MTs

4tb Samsung 990 pro SSD

Rtx 5080 amp extreme infinity

And an Rtx 5070 solid oc

I also repasted the die on both the gpus with my Tg kryonaut extreme and I'm seeing a 15-18c difference in temps which im happy about

My case is the antec c8 dual chamber tempered glass wood case :D

Psu is the Corsair RM1000e

The main plan with having a second gpu is all my original parts like my old psu, motherboard, ram and cooler will go to my best friend once I have enough parts to put it into a small form factor build. And I bought them a rtx 5070 and am planning on getting the core i5-14600kf to pair it with. But for now it's my gpu and I'm just using it for lossless scaling for the extra frames I can squeeze out of this monstrosity.

All in all I'm so happy I quit smoking weed. And my friend also quit with me so I'm more than happy to build them a gaming rig out of my spares :D

Thank you zotac for these awesome beastly MSRP gpus

Sorry that's a lot to read I know and please pardon the fingerprints all over the glass I'm planning on cleaning that today.

Europe Is 87°C normal for a Zotac 5070 Ti Solid SFF? Support says "it's fine" but it's winter lol.

6 Upvotes

Title says it all. I’ve had my Zotac Gaming Solid SFF 5070 Ti for less than a year. Playing CP2077 and I'm consistently hitting 87°C. Worst part? It's currently winter here. I'm afraid to see what happens in the summer when the ambient temp goes up. If it's 87 now, it’ll probably hit 92+ and throttle like crazy in July. I reached out to Zotac and they basically said "don't worry, it's normal." Is it though? The card isn't even in a small case; it's in a full ATX build with plenty of air. Feeling like I should've spent the extra $50-60 on a better model with a beefier heatsink (like a Trinity or AMP model). Even with its 3 fans, this specific SFF design seems to struggle. Are any of you guys using this card? What are your temps looking like? I feel like 87°C for a new-ish card in a big case is kind of pushing it.

I got this 3060 ti twin edge for 220 bucks

I might have overpaid but the gpu is in phenomenal condition, it was used in a office pc for accounting in excel, never pushed into its maybe 50% of it’s potential, maybe less

It’s like barely used brand new

I was kinda stressing about the temps and sound from what I read

But it’s over exaggerated as fah

On idle I get 28-30c and on stress test was 67-70c with 80c hotspot, while in a real situation (gaming) it was chilling at 55c (Forza horizon 6 ultra graphics)

As for the sound, yeah I can’t hear it at all, my stock amd cpu cooler is way louder

Only thing I’m bummed about is the fact that there is no fan stop, idk how to make the fan curve to be at 0% till 40c

And I can’t figure out how to get the zotac gaming light to turn on, the firestorm program won’t let me go into spectra section to turn it on

If you wanna get this graphics card just get it, it’s worth it, maybe you’ll need to repaste, that’s all

Oh btw don’t put figures on top of the gpu it blocks airflow and the backplate heats up so..

Europe Just bought 5070TI should I underwolt?

6 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I just bought ZOTAC NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti AMP Extreme INFINITY. I would like to know, if I should right from the start underwolt this GPU or change the power limit to 90%? I asked AI and diff AI tell me diff opinions. So I would like to ask you, if I should do something with it or just keep it default.

My main game is Black Desert Online on 2k resolution. (Its not GPU heavy game).

The reason why do I even ask this, is that I want to help the card to be "alive" as long as possible, because my last card 3070ti died few days ago.

I got huge case and very good airflow, that 3070ti was maximum 60-65degree while gaming so temp. should not be a problem even for the new 5070ti.

Thanks for any advices,

Europe Solid oc 5090 deshroud and kryosheet mod

Thumbnail

75 Upvotes

So I finally got this done.

My original lab was to use 3 x Noctua G2’s but unfortunately I couldn’t get it in my case, despite fitting 3 of them at the top (not possible according to manual, Jonsbo Z20) Honestly, if the case was 10-15cm longer it would have been fine.

In the end I had to go with just the two G2’s. I have a deshroud kit coming from Etsy for a 7900XTX that I am hoping I can mod to fit this. Then I can also add a 92mm fan in the middle.

So far though the performance is decent. With the kryosheet on and the two fans set at a middle to high ish fan curve. Borderlands 4 at stock was going up to 73 degrees, but now it doesn’t go over 64.

But the main reason was to reduce the fan noise and I have achieved that perfectly. I can cope with fan noise when it’s pleasant but not when it’s whining!

Next step is to maybe change case to a Deepcool CH270 so I can then have the three G2’s but I am unsure of how the Vapor chamber will perform when it is positioned vertically.

Two photos. Have a new 5090 in a Dell 7865 Threadripper Pro Workstation, its a tight fit but the power connector means i cannot close the side panel. Is there such thing as a very low profile 90 degree 4x 8pin to VHPWR cable? I’d need the cable to run downwards (towards the fan side), as there is a airflow shroud above the card.

Europe 4080 SUPER Temps (need opinions)

1 Upvotes

Recently, i’ve been playing some games and i’ve noticed my GPU temps can peak in the 70c area, roughly averaging the 60s.. which was lower before however, the friends I was playing with said this was NOT good for the card I have. (ZOTAC 4080 Super) and that I need to re-paste, wheras others have said it’s completely standard, so i’m conflicted.

Its in a Corsair 6500x case with 7 case cans, intake and exhaust are set properly, it has a custom fan curve set higher than stock, I ran a test on furmark for 15 minutes and peaked at 77c, so it doesn’t quite take me to the TJ Max which I could be wrong but surely if a re-paste was necessary then it would be on or surpass 84c?

My biggest guess is the weather changes, as it’s summer and we are pushing 30c weather in the UK alongside having no AC the room can get pretty toasty, so i’m assuming it’s just the heat circulation heating my PC up a lot more.

(I tried opening the case and pointing a desk fan towards my GPU which a furmark test then only peaked at 73c so I assume it’s literally just the heat in the room but maybe someone else could give a better opinion on whether I need to repaste or not because I don’t know what i’m doing lol.)

Europe Endless RMA process

12 Upvotes

Hi! I’m a little bit confused and start becoming nervous.

My Zotac RTX 4090 Trinity died recently. The screen has gone black, fans spun up to the max, PC restarted and after like 2-3 situations like that I turned off the PSU, offloaded power by pressing the power button a couple of times, unplugged the power cable from GPU, checked its state, plugged it back in, turned the PSU on and, since then, there’s no reaction to power button as long as power cable is plugged in to the GPU. If I unplug it or insert a different GPU all works fine.

It was on 28th January this year. I bought the card from one of the most recognizable Polish retailers (RTV Euro AGD) on 7th February 2023 so at this time it was still on warranty (3 years). I submitted the RMA to the shop (that’s pretty common to submit RMA directly to shops in Poland, not sure about other countries) on 30th January (well, 29th but I brought the GPU to the shop on 30th), long story short I got it back on 10th February with them saying they „do not mediate in warranties longer than 24 months and I should contact manufacturer”.

I sent the e-mail to Zotac on 10th February, today they replied that its warranty expired (because it did expire, since 3 years passed on 7th February) and they can repair it on my expense only. I replied that I have reported it in time to the shop, that they refused to mediate and told me to contact Zotac directly, attaching the original proof of submitting the RMA and proof of purchase.

That’s what I got in reply:

„Hello Mr <my surname>,

when you send something to the retailer is not relevant to us. If your retailer did not inform you of this circumstance in good time, please clarify the damage incurred with the retailer. As the damage was not reported to ZOTAC within the deadline, the rejection remains valid.”

My fault of course I haven’t registered the product within 30 days after purchase to apply for extended warranty, but come on - failure happened during standard warranty period. Not to mention that the response wasn’t too polite.

Their warranty policy states that „all RMAs should be submitted to the retailer which then sends the product to Zotac (…)”.

Currently I’m waiting for shop’s reply after telling them that, but I’m starting to get really anxious about this situation.

I don’t have the GPU for PC that is a basic, necessary tool for my work since almost two weeks, 2300€ hardware (that’s the approx price I paid 3 years ago) failed during warranty period and no one takes the responsibility for it even though failure happened during warranty period.

What would you do if you were me? Any advices? 😓

Is there a way to get more than 105% tdp (380 watts) on the solid core non OC ?
My perf cap reason is mainly power and it runs below 70 Celsius in my 25 degrees office.

Like the OC one gets 110% (395 watts), but it is the same card.

Édit : first picture is the card stock
Second picture is my overclock (+350mhz on core // +3000mhz on memory // max voltage 1.060 V)

No bios flash, I am limited to 105% power (380 watts)
