Is the 5070TI Super's memory speed a typo?

Which had this inside. Lian-Li O11D Evo beside as a reference. Little and large

RMA 1 finalised - warranty / spec upgrade too. The Seasonic RMA process is relatively seamless.

And a nice wizard to transfer from one Fritz!Box to another :) - My old 7530 will now become a meshed WIFI extender.

Fibre is finally coming to my area, celebrated with a new router. Ex-Amazon warehouse and the German edition to save a €'s :) Does have a SFP socket Wifi 7.

Big f off box.. 🙂

Get the RX9060 and find a used 5800X3D to compliment it. 16GB will see you through the next 3 years. Happy gaming.

What resolution? and what platform (cpu / memory / psu)?

Prime PX1600 died last night. Left 'Desmo' with a couple of Chrome tabs open and Excel, came back an hour later to everything off except the motherboard power lighting. Everything else in the room is perfect, motherboard, gpu, ram all ok. 2 dead PSU's in the space of a few weeks. Looking at the...

In the meantime, the replacement arrived, a Seasonic Prime PX-1600 ATX3.1 & PCIe 5.1 ready Rats nest of cables Out of sight, out of mind Noiseblocker goodness

Some PSU goodness The box says ATX 3.1, unit itself says ATX 3

The nice people at Seasonic had sent me an RMA number by the time I got up at 5:40 which is progress. I had sent a note to OCUK on my original assumption that it was the CPU yesterday, have yet to hear back. I can still install to 'Desmo' in its hobbled state once I put back into the case.

Stripped a vintage / retro box I was building which has an EVGA 650W and I was able to boot both Crosshair motherboards, massive relief and a complete PITA as I've stripped the CPU, Motherboard and PSU out :p - I'll use the time to tidy cables and stuff. @AlienALX - Those rads look and act the...

Took the 9950X3D out and it looks perfect, same with the X870E. Brushed off the old R9 7900 and X670E combo, hooked up to the Seasonic Vertex and nada. Pilot lights appear on the motherboard but nothing happens. So I've a Seasonic PRIME TX ATX 3.11600 on order, bit overkill but hey ho. Seasonic...

Pfft - Desmo is dead. It had spent the night downloading a fresh install of Elite Dangerous and I popped into DCS to start it's update and Pfft, gone. If its the CPU then that'll be my second 9950X (or X3D variant) that has died on me in 12 months. MB is showing signs of life so that pointing...
