I have excised the nvidia demons from my husbands pc with a 6750xt

We did it gamers. My husband got a bunch of cash for his bday, so we finally got him a gpu upgrade. He is currently playing jedi survivor on ultra settings, with ray tracing enabled, and he is getting well over 60 fps. I also got to finally install the second gpu extension I made last year, for this occasion. I also did some light tinkering with the placement of case fans, since he got my 3900x when i upgraded to a 5800x3d. I also recently had a buyer for my midnight black 6800xt, so unfortunately, I have to use the gtx 1070 in my rig for about a week. Just one more upgrade to go... and I can be satiated.

my cables i made :)my cables i made 🙂its a little dusty in here, i think a case swap is in the future for him.its a little dusty in here, i think a case swap is in the future for him.i moved the top 140mm fan from over the cpu cooler, to the front of the case.i moved the top 140mm fan from over the cpu cooler, to the front of the case.i also put this cardboard ramp in the 5.25 drive bay area to divert air into the cpu cooler. 3 degree temp reduction from this alone :oi also put this cardboard ramp in the 5.25 drive bay area to divert air into the cpu cooler. 3 degree temp reduction from this alone 😮oh dear god what have i doneoh dear god what have i done

Nice systems! What're you upgrading to since you sold the 6800 XT?

Maximus - Ryzen 7 3700x | Power Color Fighter RX 6700 XT | Fractal Ridge ITX Case (HTPC)

hoping to get a 6950xt, or just a partner card 6800xt. my reference card overheated all the time 😕

@rtbh99  That's cool. An amazing card awaits. Or.... just go ahead and spend that big money on the 7900 XTX. You know you really want to. You got it! You won't even miss it! 😆

That cardboard air deflector is interesting.  If it's worth a 3 degree reduction in temperature, it's a good idea.


As Albert Einstein said, "I could have done so much more with a Big Al's Computer!".
