  • 00:01:00
    yes this is the Asus 590 Astro OC card
  • 00:01:05
    with the astronomical price to go along
  • 00:01:07
    with it I put out apbs everywhere I
  • 00:01:10
    possibly could I did not want to go
  • 00:01:12
    through Asus for this card I did manage
  • 00:01:14
    to be able to buy one through an SI I'm
  • 00:01:16
    not going to name that SI cuz I don't
  • 00:01:17
    know whether or not I can or I'm allowed
  • 00:01:19
    to or not but I did pay full MSRP at
  • 00:01:24
    $3,779 pre-tax after tax it was over
  • 00:01:28
    $3,300 I I firmly believe you should be
  • 00:01:31
    building an entire computer with less
  • 00:01:32
    than that okay this is not look I am
  • 00:01:36
    going to selfishly try and self-defend
  • 00:01:38
    but you that are already feverishly
  • 00:01:40
    typing your hate messages go ahead I
  • 00:01:42
    truly don't give a because I have tried
  • 00:01:46
    to get back up on the leaderboard close
  • 00:01:48
    to where everyone's Landing with these
  • 00:01:49
    cards and I think there's like an orus
  • 00:01:51
    OC up there or like an orus extreme card
  • 00:01:53
    a couple msis there's a reason why none
  • 00:01:56
    of the Fe cards are up that high anymore
  • 00:01:57
    and there's a reason why the Zotac card
  • 00:01:59
    we have isn't up that high Zotac our
  • 00:02:00
    Zotac card remember that was an
  • 00:02:02
    engineering sample card I don't have it
  • 00:02:03
    on hand but that was an engineering
  • 00:02:05
    sample card and when I look at the
  • 00:02:06
    frequency range on that when I'm doing
  • 00:02:08
    like my Port Royal run and stuff we need
  • 00:02:12
    the highest consistent frame clock or uh
  • 00:02:14
    GPU clock that we can get that one would
  • 00:02:16
    go from like 2900 down to 2200 up to
  • 00:02:19
    2500 down to 2200 up to 3,000 it was so
  • 00:02:23
    fluctuating it was impossible to do
  • 00:02:25
    anything with that card it just would
  • 00:02:27
    not be consistent now the first time I
  • 00:02:30
    got to play around with the astral OC um
  • 00:02:33
    it was actually the liquid cooler which
  • 00:02:36
    my if you guys have watch my live stream
  • 00:02:37
    you know Martin sugar 2K uh played like
  • 00:02:39
    fasmo with him and a bunch of other
  • 00:02:41
    games is like kind of a part of our
  • 00:02:42
    regular crew um that was his card that
  • 00:02:44
    he waited in line at Micro Center
  • 00:02:46
    together think he came in at like
  • 00:02:48
    midnight and then got it that morning so
  • 00:02:50
    he didn't have to wait days like
  • 00:02:51
    everyone else he came on the second day
  • 00:02:53
    happened to get the one liquid cooled
  • 00:02:55
    card they had that was a card I used of
  • 00:02:57
    his but I have learned some secret sauce
  • 00:03:00
    methods and I will not be showing some
  • 00:03:02
    of my secret s sauce methods I've sort
  • 00:03:04
    of figured out every card family has its
  • 00:03:06
    own like quirks that you have to figure
  • 00:03:08
    out sometimes the highest clock is not
  • 00:03:10
    the best performance sometimes the
  • 00:03:12
    highest memory is not the best
  • 00:03:13
    performance sometimes certain settings
  • 00:03:15
    in your bios for your CPU is not the
  • 00:03:17
    best for performance same thing when it
  • 00:03:18
    comes to Ram I can tell you when it
  • 00:03:20
    comes to the platform it's just as
  • 00:03:22
    important as the card itself so the rip
  • 00:03:24
    GN series if you're not sure what that
  • 00:03:26
    is it goes all the way back to when the
  • 00:03:28
    20 series launched from uh Nvidia like
  • 00:03:30
    the 2080 and the 2080 TI SLI was still a
  • 00:03:34
    thing I got myself on the leaderboard
  • 00:03:36
    cuz I had a couple of cards at launch
  • 00:03:38
    from MSI and then Steve beat us and was
  • 00:03:40
    like Hey Jay look at that rip Jay and
  • 00:03:41
    then I fired back with rip GN and then
  • 00:03:44
    we leveled up from Air to liquid cooling
  • 00:03:46
    and then ice bath and then dry ice and
  • 00:03:48
    then ln2 and then it got all the way to
  • 00:03:50
    evga's headquarters where we had a live
  • 00:03:52
    competition with ln2 overclocking where
  • 00:03:54
    I almost lit my eyebrows on fire but
  • 00:03:55
    that's a different story
  • 00:03:59
    don't help Jerry Vince this is a
  • 00:04:01
    oneon-one
  • 00:04:02
    did you just blow your eyebrows again
  • 00:04:05
    then I saw a flame oh man I saw a flame
  • 00:04:07
    in the away and then we did Rip Jan a
  • 00:04:11
    little bit with 30 series and then 40
  • 00:04:12
    series it didn't happen at all so I
  • 00:04:14
    threw down the gauntlet in fact I've
  • 00:04:16
    already beaten bearded Hardware score by
  • 00:04:18
    a lot on this air cooled card without
  • 00:04:20
    the air conditioner and then I beat it
  • 00:04:23
    even further my own score with air
  • 00:04:25
    conditioning so I've only kind of played
  • 00:04:27
    around this card in Port Royal but when
  • 00:04:29
    they were doing the their live stream um
  • 00:04:31
    they really did it's all in good fun
  • 00:04:32
    there was a lot of talking and teasing I
  • 00:04:34
    know Stanzi we talk cars a lot I've
  • 00:04:36
    known Steve for years obviously um it's
  • 00:04:38
    all in good fun so if you see some heavy
  • 00:04:40
    talking just know we all do respect
  • 00:04:42
    each other but these are bragging rights
  • 00:04:44
    here and we have to bragging rights come
  • 00:04:47
    with SH talking rights and the whole
  • 00:04:49
    point is to put that right back in
  • 00:04:51
    your opponent's mouth gross but true
  • 00:04:53
    okay so anyway back to what I was saying
  • 00:04:55
    um they were using the Astro OC card and
  • 00:04:59
    they had it sh modded so that means they
  • 00:05:00
    were able to pull an extra like 40 to 45
  • 00:05:02
    Watts or so out of
  • 00:05:04
    it I didn't do any of that and I've
  • 00:05:06
    already beaten his score by a lot so
  • 00:05:08
    this is going to get interesting but
  • 00:05:09
    anyway as I started to say I already
  • 00:05:10
    told Steve via VIA phone hey I'm going
  • 00:05:13
    to revive ripg I did watch you guys'
  • 00:05:15
    live stream I was rooting for you and uh
  • 00:05:18
    but enough's enough the talking yeah
  • 00:05:20
    we're going to and so I got to put this
  • 00:05:22
    out there every time Steve puts up
  • 00:05:26
    scores through Stanzi and it shows #
  • 00:05:29
    bearded Hardware as the name Steve you
  • 00:05:32
    got to put up your own scores it's got
  • 00:05:33
    to be Gamers Nexus versus Jay's two cent
  • 00:05:36
    so you're going to have to put your own
  • 00:05:37
    scores up there it's going to be
  • 00:05:38
    interesting though cuz I think they're
  • 00:05:39
    having a hard time sourcing a card cuz
  • 00:05:40
    that was actually a borrowed card that
  • 00:05:42
    they had to return they shuted a
  • 00:05:44
    borrowed card they did they did that's
  • 00:05:47
    Brave they they got approval they were
  • 00:05:49
    allowed to do it was actually an SI that
  • 00:05:51
    let them borrow the card and it was
  • 00:05:53
    slated for a build but they asked the
  • 00:05:55
    person who the build was slated for can
  • 00:05:57
    can Gamers Nexus and bearded Hardware
  • 00:05:58
    use your card to modify a little bit to
  • 00:06:01
    uh to try and get on the leaderboards
  • 00:06:03
    for Reviving rip J and then their own
  • 00:06:05
    purposes and they were like yeah do it
  • 00:06:07
    it carried a full warranty don't worry
  • 00:06:08
    the SI is warranty it but yes they did
  • 00:06:11
    that with a card they didn't own I own
  • 00:06:13
    this card I may or may not look into
  • 00:06:16
    modifying it but I got to wait for the
  • 00:06:18
    $3,300 I just shelled out for this to
  • 00:06:20
    kind of cool off a little bit no pun
  • 00:06:22
    intended let's do this let's go ahead
  • 00:06:24
    right now and just kind of get ourself
  • 00:06:27
    on the steel Nomad um track
  • 00:06:30
    and then I am pulling out all the stops
  • 00:06:32
    to the AC you guys have seen me level it
  • 00:06:34
    up from cardboard back like cardboard
  • 00:06:36
    forever up to like
  • 00:06:40
    styrene I spent $200 in materials today
  • 00:06:43
    raw materials just for the AC so now
  • 00:06:47
    we're up to $3,500 worth of ripg
  • 00:06:50
    actually this whole competition just
  • 00:06:52
    should just be ripg and Jay's
  • 00:06:54
    wallets uh again this is not like a
  • 00:06:56
    review of this card um but I want to
  • 00:06:58
    point out this is the only card in the
  • 00:06:59
    market that actually gives you per pin
  • 00:07:01
    monitoring on the 12vt side of the
  • 00:07:02
    12volt high power connector so you can
  • 00:07:04
    actually see the live amps and stuff so
  • 00:07:06
    this card is the one card I
  • 00:07:09
    feel might carry some actual value to
  • 00:07:12
    some of the really premium costs over
  • 00:07:13
    the other 90s and I don't please don't
  • 00:07:16
    confuse the word value and 5090 in a
  • 00:07:19
    holistic sense like I don't feel like
  • 00:07:21
    the 5090 carries any value over say
  • 00:07:24
    finding yourself a used 4080 or
  • 00:07:26
    something like that but in terms of this
  • 00:07:28
    one giving you at least monitoring and
  • 00:07:29
    warning in you uh if your pins are over
  • 00:07:31
    amps is a nice thing to you could save
  • 00:07:33
    the card beforehand apparently I don't
  • 00:07:36
    have one if you pair it with a Thor V3
  • 00:07:38
    power supply it'll actually load balance
  • 00:07:40
    on the power supply side so that's kind
  • 00:07:41
    of a neat ecosystem but we are going to
  • 00:07:44
    be turning off power
  • 00:07:45
    detect because I don't want it yelling
  • 00:07:48
    at me my PMD is already going to be
  • 00:07:50
    yelling at me but anyway uh you can see
  • 00:07:52
    right here I'm number 11 right I was
  • 00:07:54
    down at like 50 something remember I had
  • 00:07:55
    a score of like
  • 00:07:57
    4,160 something I think it was pH can
  • 00:07:59
    put it up here I came all the way up to
  • 00:08:01
    a
  • 00:08:03
    41,600
  • 00:08:04
    points with no mods that's what's crazy
  • 00:08:07
    about this I'm wondering if there was
  • 00:08:09
    some sort of an inefficiency in
  • 00:08:11
    potentially bearded hardware setup cuz
  • 00:08:13
    so he's number 35 at a 4,819 so that was
  • 00:08:16
    the score he put up his max boost would
  • 00:08:18
    have been 3210 if it could maintain that
  • 00:08:20
    but due to power and voltage and all
  • 00:08:22
    that limitations it would never hit
  • 00:08:24
    there um his memory clock was only at
  • 00:08:26
    2,000 that's because they were using MSI
  • 00:08:27
    After Burner they know they need to go
  • 00:08:29
    up to ,000 but if we look at his average
  • 00:08:31
    temperature 47c and I believe at the end
  • 00:08:33
    of the runs I didn't watch the end of
  • 00:08:35
    the um the live stream I I did watch
  • 00:08:37
    when they beat my score by like a few
  • 00:08:39
    points and they were like oh there goes
  • 00:08:40
    Jay now we'll move up the leaderboard I
  • 00:08:42
    know for a while there they were talking
  • 00:08:44
    about and I actually wanted to try this
  • 00:08:46
    but I never did and it's funny that they
  • 00:08:47
    tried it you put a bunch of ln2 in like
  • 00:08:49
    a like a pan or like a bowl in front of
  • 00:08:52
    like a metal Bowl in front of the GPU
  • 00:08:54
    and it puts a ton of vapors like L and2
  • 00:08:56
    vapor is very very cold and the idea is
  • 00:08:59
    you put it in front of the GPU it sucks
  • 00:09:00
    those Vapors in and it will cool down
  • 00:09:03
    the GPU just cuz the temperature of the
  • 00:09:04
    air going through it I don't know if
  • 00:09:06
    that
  • 00:09:07
    47c includes that I know I think it does
  • 00:09:10
    cuz I know for a fact they didn't have
  • 00:09:11
    an AC and they did have ln2 so I think
  • 00:09:14
    that's ln2 Vapors right there but look
  • 00:09:16
    at his average core uh core clock
  • 00:09:20
    2920 now here's why I think there may
  • 00:09:22
    potentially be a small inefficiency in
  • 00:09:26
    their their setup so they he's got 32
  • 00:09:28
    gigs of RAM his Ram is running
  • 00:09:31
    at oh that's a GPU his Ram so he's at
  • 00:09:35
    5.45 think at 5.4 but 5.45
  • 00:09:39
    GHz uh and it was running 6,000 MHz Ram
  • 00:09:43
    32 gigs of it so we have very similar
  • 00:09:46
    setups but what was his average clock
  • 00:09:48
    2920 average clock mine my average clock
  • 00:09:52
    is
  • 00:09:53
    376 so I got it significantly over 3,000
  • 00:09:56
    but I'm still at an efficiency loss
  • 00:09:58
    versus those above me cuz people above
  • 00:09:59
    me actually have a lower average clock
  • 00:10:01
    so that just shows all kinds of
  • 00:10:02
    weirdness happening with these you can
  • 00:10:04
    see I'm at 5.4 GHz on the CPU so I'm
  • 00:10:07
    about 50 MHz deficit and then we are
  • 00:10:09
    running very comparable Ram I'm at the
  • 00:10:11
    gskill cl28 36 at 6,000 MHz again two
  • 00:10:16
    sticks of it 32 gigs on the Tai Chi
  • 00:10:18
    board fun fact I'm running the exact
  • 00:10:20
    setup that apparently is killing 9800 X
  • 00:10:22
    3DS and this thing has done no less than
  • 00:10:25
    a th000 GPU runs in the last 2 months
  • 00:10:27
    and has been running day and nights with
  • 00:10:30
    no issues whatsoever however it is still
  • 00:10:33
    on the outof the-box BIOS and I never
  • 00:10:34
    touched it so I'm not going to touch it
  • 00:10:37
    so here's the thing if if I could beat
  • 00:10:40
    his Port Royal score as much as I did
  • 00:10:42
    theoretically I should be able to beat
  • 00:10:44
    this but I know nothing about steel
  • 00:10:46
    Nomad I know nothing about its nuances I
  • 00:10:48
    know nothing about what it likes does it
  • 00:10:49
    like more RAM speed does it like more
  • 00:10:51
    GPU core does it like more CPU I have no
  • 00:10:54
    idea so what we're going to do right now
  • 00:10:55
    is I'm going to just do a quick dirty
  • 00:10:57
    overclock on this I'm going to do like a
  • 00:10:58
    plus three 00 or something like that on
  • 00:11:00
    air uh and I'm going to see where we
  • 00:11:02
    land and we'll start tweaking the the
  • 00:11:04
    the settings so one thing I'm going to
  • 00:11:06
    have to do here is um you can see the
  • 00:11:09
    clock speed caps out at 2838 in GPU
  • 00:11:12
    tweak that's not going to cut it so what
  • 00:11:14
    I have to do is I have to go to settings
  • 00:11:16
    and then click enhanced overclocking
  • 00:11:19
    range do not show Monitor and do not
  • 00:11:21
    apply previous settings we don't want to
  • 00:11:22
    apply we don't want to apply previous
  • 00:11:23
    settings cuz if you put something in
  • 00:11:25
    accidentally that's way off like a plus
  • 00:11:27
    1,000 on the core or something every
  • 00:11:28
    time the driver izes it'll crash so
  • 00:11:30
    don't do that just save your profiles
  • 00:11:33
    and I don't want you starting with
  • 00:11:34
    windows so I can all right we're going
  • 00:11:36
    to
  • 00:11:37
    5,160 so if I was to apply that the
  • 00:11:39
    system would crash and on every boot it
  • 00:11:41
    would crash again if I had that settings
  • 00:11:42
    set that says load previous settings on
  • 00:11:44
    start so don't do that okay so 15,38
  • 00:11:47
    that's clearly way far away from the
  • 00:11:49
    16,400 something I think we needed but
  • 00:11:51
    that's fine I obviously wasn't going for
  • 00:11:52
    that right now so I want to look at my
  • 00:11:54
    core frequency so it looks like I'm out
  • 00:11:55
    I was at 20 above 2850 the the entire
  • 00:11:59
    run that's the that's what we want that
  • 00:12:02
    pink Line's a core clock we want that to
  • 00:12:04
    be level the Zotac card as I started to
  • 00:12:06
    say and the reason why it just doesn't
  • 00:12:08
    compete and I don't know if there's a
  • 00:12:09
    defect in that card because it's an
  • 00:12:11
    engineering sample that is like a
  • 00:12:13
    heartbeat it is all over the place it is
  • 00:12:16
    absolutely un like non-consistent and
  • 00:12:19
    that's the problem I need consistency
  • 00:12:21
    what does our temperature look like so
  • 00:12:22
    you can see it climbs the entire run we
  • 00:12:25
    capped out at
  • 00:12:29
    so the reason why I'm showing you what
  • 00:12:31
    I'm doing is it allows a lot of you to
  • 00:12:33
    get involved too and we've had a lot of
  • 00:12:35
    people come in and rip both us like
  • 00:12:37
    Steve and myself and be like yo where
  • 00:12:40
    you at and then sometimes we just can't
  • 00:12:42
    even come close to their numbers but uh
  • 00:12:44
    what I want to see now is I did my
  • 00:12:47
    offset on the GPU I'm now going to
  • 00:12:49
    offset my memory because I want to see
  • 00:12:52
    how much we pick up with memory now now
  • 00:12:54
    that I've told you how I'm doing that
  • 00:12:56
    let's just sort of Leap Frog our way up
  • 00:12:59
    and let's see now so
  • 00:13:02
    15,38 with a plus 3,000 offset on the
  • 00:13:06
    memory gets us okay so we we really
  • 00:13:08
    didn't gain anything with just Ram right
  • 00:13:10
    there so let's just go 3100 we're going
  • 00:13:14
    to go for it right now that's a
  • 00:13:16
    520 offset which doesn't match the
  • 00:13:19
    offset of the other stuff but whatever I
  • 00:13:20
    don't care okay 15855 that's a good jump
  • 00:13:23
    but holy cow we're not making as much of
  • 00:13:24
    a progress as I thought I'm going to try
  • 00:13:28
    my other method oh man I have no idea
  • 00:13:30
    what that run was now that happens
  • 00:13:32
    sometimes like I've had that happen
  • 00:13:33
    before where I get a crash or something
  • 00:13:35
    weird like that and then just say screw
  • 00:13:38
    it run it again and then it works fine
  • 00:13:41
    like it goes through and everything's
  • 00:13:42
    good and then I can go farther sometimes
  • 00:13:45
    it's almost like it has to complete a
  • 00:13:46
    test to know oh yeah I can do it and
  • 00:13:48
    then it gets like the confidence to know
  • 00:13:50
    it can do it so we picked up a little by
  • 00:13:52
    going to
  • 00:13:53
    450 call the yeah so 1 or 15, 959 we
  • 00:13:58
    picked up a little bit I'm going to go
  • 00:13:59
    for 500 before I put the AC on and then
  • 00:14:02
    we'll move on to AC
  • 00:14:04
    because this is a raster test this is
  • 00:14:06
    not an RT test so it may or may not like
  • 00:14:11
    this I was mid-sentence say oh that was
  • 00:14:14
    an easy run and then
  • 00:14:15
    it it crashed wait oh no wait it didn't
  • 00:14:18
    okay I thought it crashed but I gained
  • 00:14:20
    nothing okay I have some work to do
  • 00:14:24
    right now on steel Nomad uh again I'm
  • 00:14:27
    not I'm trying to beat bearded for fun
  • 00:14:29
    but I had to put some scores up for
  • 00:14:30
    Steve to beat so I shut it down because
  • 00:14:34
    now we're going to bring out I'm calling
  • 00:14:36
    it Steve 2.0 remember we named the air
  • 00:14:38
    conditioner Steve this is Steve 2.0 so I
  • 00:14:42
    got this stuffff I literally went and
  • 00:14:44
    got actual ducting cuz I was at Home
  • 00:14:46
    Depot and I was like you know
  • 00:14:50
    what I was like okay that's not bad so
  • 00:14:55
    my my biggest problem is every time I go
  • 00:14:57
    to use this stupid thing I have to like
  • 00:14:59
    Jimmy rig it up with like tape
  • 00:15:01
    everywhere and cardboard and I'm got I'm
  • 00:15:03
    tired of that so I've sort of figured
  • 00:15:07
    out
  • 00:15:08
    like I think that's a 10-in circle
  • 00:15:10
    anyway now it's start to look like clap
  • 00:15:13
    trap uh I can just have a setup here
  • 00:15:16
    that's permanent and then have my flex
  • 00:15:19
    duct here which is flexible and
  • 00:15:24
    insulated and then I can just have a
  • 00:15:26
    part that attaches to graphics cards and
  • 00:15:28
    have height adjustability and stuff
  • 00:15:30
    there's more than enough blower velocity
  • 00:15:31
    to push through this even though we're
  • 00:15:32
    stepping it down and then stepping it up
  • 00:15:34
    again it'll be just fine this is very
  • 00:15:38
    attached dude Gorilla tape for the win
  • 00:15:41
    on that one okay so I have taped up all
  • 00:15:43
    the edges on here got rid of the sharp
  • 00:15:44
    edges doubled up on the Gorilla Tape one
  • 00:15:47
    to hold down the flap cuz I'm not
  • 00:15:48
    actually mounting it down to any sort of
  • 00:15:50
    duct like register in the ceiling but I
  • 00:15:53
    wanted to not have anything short out or
  • 00:15:56
    even scratch this card I have 25 ft of
  • 00:15:58
    this and I really only need about two of
  • 00:16:00
    it but it's the
  • 00:16:02
    smallest it's the smallest size they got
  • 00:16:05
    and I paid 66 bucks oh jeez oh ladies
  • 00:16:10
    it's excited to see
  • 00:16:22
    you
  • 00:16:27
    okay you should be wearing people when
  • 00:16:29
    handling this stuff this is definitely
  • 00:16:33
    a do as I say and not as I
  • 00:16:35
    do kind of a situation here ow it
  • 00:16:41
    ow that was
  • 00:16:45
    easy okay we're good this might be the
  • 00:16:49
    nicest R version of it
  • 00:16:52
    yet all right
  • 00:16:54
    Steve you're ready for work I just had
  • 00:16:57
    to tape up the gap on the top and then
  • 00:16:59
    I'm going to tape up this Gap right here
  • 00:17:00
    on the card I don't want anything
  • 00:17:01
    bypassing that way okay come on Steve
  • 00:17:04
    Steve's put on some
  • 00:17:05
    weight okay whoa fibers
  • 00:17:11
    yeah woo I'm covered in fiberglass
  • 00:17:16
    fibers this is why you're also supposed
  • 00:17:18
    hey I found that missing screw this is
  • 00:17:20
    why you're supposed to be uh wearing
  • 00:17:22
    like
  • 00:17:24
    a my nose okay whatever all right let's
  • 00:17:28
    uh let's get this thing fired up and
  • 00:17:29
    getting cold and I'm going to get I'm
  • 00:17:31
    going to pre-chill the card we're set up
  • 00:17:33
    we're chilled let's see what the idle
  • 00:17:34
    temp is right now um with the blanket
  • 00:17:38
    method I told you about I couldn't get
  • 00:17:39
    the card to go below about 17° so right
  • 00:17:44
    now it's at 11 all I need is a few
  • 00:17:47
    degrees it will matter it will make a
  • 00:17:49
    huge difference all right here we go I
  • 00:17:52
    just want to hit
  • 00:17:54
    41,7 yay 41,7 48 and that's slower
  • 00:17:59
    than I was yesterday like what I mean by
  • 00:18:02
    slower is I did not push the clocks as
  • 00:18:03
    far as I normally did so that shows just
  • 00:18:05
    the extra air going through here is
  • 00:18:06
    actually beneficial so this should now
  • 00:18:08
    have put
  • 00:18:10
    me in the top 10 41748 now you can see I
  • 00:18:13
    got to get up
  • 00:18:15
    41756 and then Jun ball at 41843 that's
  • 00:18:19
    a bit of a jump and then Phantom at
  • 00:18:21
    4253 so now we're starting to get to the
  • 00:18:23
    guys that are playing with the card so
  • 00:18:25
    let me push this now a little bit we're
  • 00:18:27
    going to go for 550
  • 00:18:30
    and I'm going to let it chill out just a
  • 00:18:32
    little bit whoa holy crap okay that
  • 00:18:36
    might put me top five I didn't change
  • 00:18:40
    anything it just kept crashing and I
  • 00:18:41
    just kept saying go try again try again
  • 00:18:43
    and it worked and I did a full system
  • 00:18:45
    restart let it get cold with it off and
  • 00:18:48
    then just ran it I did what Vince was
  • 00:18:50
    always yelling at me like get the pot
  • 00:18:51
    set get it on get it down to Temp and go
  • 00:18:54
    don't chicken clock it all right
  • 00:18:56
    so that's a 41824
  • 00:18:59
    well that was 520 I want to try 530 and
  • 00:19:02
    then yes Ste NAD I just want to see like
  • 00:19:03
    I do feel like I'm on the edge of
  • 00:19:05
    capability based on the temp that I have
  • 00:19:07
    with this card um I feel like I might be
  • 00:19:11
    able to get up into that potential
  • 00:19:13
    42,000 range by just throwing an ln2 pot
  • 00:19:15
    on there and keeping it cold without any
  • 00:19:17
    mods at all then I may actually consider
  • 00:19:19
    doing the shut mod cuz if I can get 40
  • 00:19:21
    extra watts and I can keep it obviously
  • 00:19:23
    cold enough um that'd be great here's
  • 00:19:27
    the irony
  • 00:19:28
    during none of these runs have my pm has
  • 00:19:30
    my PMD started beeping at
  • 00:19:33
    me but all the other cards do like the
  • 00:19:36
    '90s
  • 00:19:37
    so I feel like there's some power left
  • 00:19:39
    on the table okay so
  • 00:19:43
    41849 is it going to finally give me my
  • 00:19:45
    score like on the hall of fame or what
  • 00:19:48
    sometimes it does that where it just
  • 00:19:49
    doesn't want to like update now we got a
  • 00:19:52
    big gap to get the 42053 on Phantom and
  • 00:19:55
    I'm not going to bother trying to do
  • 00:19:56
    that today I have to do steel Nomad
  • 00:19:58
    first oh
  • 00:19:59
    16,27 so I'm quite a bit off from
  • 00:20:04
    where where Stanzi is yeah he's at
  • 00:20:09
    16309 I'm at 16027 okay so I have less
  • 00:20:12
    than 300 points to make up
  • 00:20:15
    okay I has idea and then we'll start
  • 00:20:18
    wrapping this up cuz it it's just fun to
  • 00:20:21
    beat bearded Hardware but I got to I got
  • 00:20:23
    to worry about Steve here I am going to
  • 00:20:26
    go ahead and go back to 3000 RAM and
  • 00:20:29
    see actually no I'm
  • 00:20:32
    not I'm going to go back to like 510 on
  • 00:20:35
    the core
  • 00:20:37
    here cuz one of the things I did was I
  • 00:20:39
    backed off the
  • 00:20:41
    memory to try and get more core
  • 00:20:44
    stability potentially and that that
  • 00:20:45
    seemed to work here cuz the last crash
  • 00:20:47
    was at 5 500 offset but all I did
  • 00:20:50
    between that last R and this one was
  • 00:20:51
    drop the memory back down to 2000 H I
  • 00:20:53
    got to run it back it did that thing
  • 00:20:55
    where it crashed on the last frame and
  • 00:20:57
    then didn't actually spit me out out a
  • 00:20:58
    result this is quite literally the edge
  • 00:21:01
    of stability overclocking I have to
  • 00:21:03
    restart the system again because it does
  • 00:21:05
    a thing where 3D Mark crashed and then
  • 00:21:07
    says it's running when it's not it keeps
  • 00:21:09
    not giving me an actual like it's not
  • 00:21:11
    rendering aing
  • 00:21:13
    result
  • 00:21:16
    why so the reason why this score the the
  • 00:21:19
    41849 in Port Royal isn't showing up is
  • 00:21:23
    it actually is
  • 00:21:26
    showing time measurement data available
  • 00:21:29
    an unknown GPU and unknown so something
  • 00:21:32
    clearly crashed at some point during the
  • 00:21:36
    uh when it has to like sense the
  • 00:21:39
    hardware and stuff or it does the
  • 00:21:40
    hardware detect so I'm going to try and
  • 00:21:42
    run that one one more time and then I
  • 00:21:43
    think we'll pretty much call it a day
  • 00:21:44
    because I am consistently crashing
  • 00:21:47
    now and
  • 00:21:50
    uh I have some scores for at least Steve
  • 00:21:53
    to try and beat I'm not going to be
  • 00:21:55
    matching Stan's
  • 00:21:58
    steal Nomad cuz it keeps like not even
  • 00:22:00
    starting for me right now so it's it's
  • 00:22:02
    possible I may need
  • 00:22:04
    to I may need to reinstall 3D Mark or
  • 00:22:07
    reinstall the driver when I start
  • 00:22:08
    getting those like it just gives me a
  • 00:22:10
    white square when starting the test now
  • 00:22:13
    so I it's it's one of those things where
  • 00:22:15
    it could be an issue I'm going to find
  • 00:22:16
    out right now if Port Royal will run um
  • 00:22:18
    I'm still happy with the 51824 I mean
  • 00:22:20
    the 51 849 would bump me up one more
  • 00:22:23
    spot into seven but I know the card's
  • 00:22:25
    capable of it and I can always come back
  • 00:22:26
    and do this again later and the cool
  • 00:22:27
    thing about this is this is now set up
  • 00:22:29
    and ready for that card so I can always
  • 00:22:31
    take this apart like just take it off
  • 00:22:34
    and then I can have the card hooked up
  • 00:22:35
    and ready to go within 5 minutes of
  • 00:22:37
    starting this again so that's what's
  • 00:22:38
    nice about this setup right here yeah
  • 00:22:40
    see that that wasn't nearly as good of a
  • 00:22:42
    run right there
  • 00:22:43
    41712 okay so now that that
  • 00:22:48
    ran will steal Nomad please run yeah
  • 00:22:52
    something's just wrong with steel Nomad
  • 00:22:53
    right now so I'm going have to probably
  • 00:22:55
    reinstall 3D Mark to get this to work
  • 00:22:56
    but okay so those are the
  • 00:23:01
    scores that Steve needs to beat all
  • 00:23:04
    right Steve so I the gloves thrown down
  • 00:23:08
    right so you have to beat 41,8 24 and
  • 00:23:11
    then in steel
  • 00:23:14
    Nomad you got to beat uh
  • 00:23:18
    16,27 so I'm going to have to work on
  • 00:23:20
    that steel Nomad score for sure and
  • 00:23:21
    bearded Hardware is going have to work
  • 00:23:23
    on that Port Royal score and again
  • 00:23:25
    non-modded cards so uh you know that's
  • 00:23:29
    fine anyway all right rip GN is back
  • 00:23:32
    it's going to be some gaps between these
  • 00:23:34
    because it takes time to get to it and
  • 00:23:35
    both Steve and I are about to travel for
  • 00:23:37
    more than a week and leave the country
  • 00:23:39
    so um not together though I don't I
  • 00:23:41
    don't want to be around him that long
  • 00:23:42
    but it's fine anyway moving on thanks
  • 00:23:44
    for watching I hope you guys enjoy the
  • 00:23:46
    ripg it should be a lot of fun it will
  • 00:23:48
    go from this monstrosity at some point
  • 00:23:49
    to ln2 and that's the whole purpose of
  • 00:23:51
    why I got this card it's not even going
  • 00:23:53
    in my personal system I thought maybe at
  • 00:23:55
    some point I'd put a 90 in there 490 IS
  • 00:23:58
    F fine and probably less likely to
  • 00:24:01
    self-destruct at some point all right
  • 00:24:03
    guys thanks for watching we'll see you
  • 00:24:04
    in the next one
