Expensive mistake 🤣😭 6700xt, 650W psu recommendation isn't too bad. And can game at 1440p!

Also if your current monitor has a 60 Hz refresh rate, set your maximum fps to 60 in the game settings. 11 hours ago, biddie_fiddler said: I attempted to put liquid metal on it I put liquid metal on the shunts on my 1080ti and also the cooler and it worked out pretty good, could oc to the moon. I guess you got some on the transistors around the core and it said nope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The card did have some issues previously but it was mainly driver issues. I was very careful and didn't get any on the capacitors around the GPU die. I actually used super glue to protect them, just in case, and sg is not supposed to be conducive or cause interference. Maybe it was pure coincidence but I doubt it. The more I try to clean around the capacitors the worse it's getting. Now it just blue screens on every startup. Lesson learnt! Will use a different method on the new one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth checking the marks on them to find out. This might sound silly but you can remove the cooler and run the card through the dishwasher. It will clean the fark out of it and after it's completely dry you can assemble it and give it another crack. At this point you've probably got nothing to lose and the dishwasher method is actually very common amongst overclockers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not fussed, getting an upgrade now 🤷♂️😂 I didn't touch the thermal pads at all! Temps are fantastic! And it crashes on the desktop so it's not to do with it being loaded. It's gotta be something else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to set it up for each game unless you enable it in the gpu software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
