How do you install water cooling on the titan x pascal?
Do you have a link of a tutorial for it?
Do I need to unscrew anything on the card risking to break it?
My card becomes incredibly hot when I play vr games . The card connectors that connect the back of the card to the pc, becomes boiling hot. I have been always afraid that the card would fry
You will need to remove the existing heat sink and fans. It’s probably much like installing water cooling on any graphics card, but you’ll need to make sure to get a water cooling kit which fits your particular card. It may be hard to find one, since most kits are designed for gaming video cards. (I have no idea if the design of your card is the same as a similar gaming card, but it might be.)
You should check to make sure that the fans on the cards are working properly and that your case has proper ventilation and that the case vents aren’t blocked with dust. I have to clean my vents and fans every few months. If your system is clogged up, you can reduce the heat for free.
It should get hot, but your situation sounds extreme.
Yes, there is risk, like anytime you work on your system. I broke a video card once, just swapping out a dead fan. If you do this modification, be careful that you don’t accidentally short out a circuit board trace (like I did). In this particular case, I didn’t mind too much, since the card was several years old; it gave me a good excuse to upgrade.
I am thinking of upgrading to a 2080ti, once water blocks to fit are released.
can anyone explain to me if ray tracing can help in current vr games? Or if it’s just something for the future aaa titles to take advantage of?
I currently have a 1080ti with a water block, oc’d to around 2,068 i think.
I guess I’m going to have to wait for benchmarks to see how much better it can perform, than what I already have
Thanks guys. So mainly it just needs more raw power.
I’ll wait to see what it can do oc’d on water before I decide.
I think it would have to be at leaat 20% better than what I have, for me to justify the price
Does anyone have noticed what happens with these video cards?
They always sold out on the spot.
It makes you think that there are people that have ways to buy multiple cards so that they can sell them at a higher price for ppl that do not want to wait that the cards are back in stock.
It takes months for these cards to be accessible to many. Am I wrong?
I had this issue with the titan x pascal.
Prices were sky rocketing because the card was getting "out of stock, instantaneousy…then you were seeing the cards sold on ebay or else, 500 or more dollars overpriced.
It felt like it was a rip off game
