I watched all four hours strait through last night.

I watched a lot of it myself as I found it more interesting than practical. The extremes some go through just to get a high bench score.

I still learn a lot about how different BIOS settings affect stability, or even what some do.
Or I hear them change one I never really thought about, and fire up a search machine to learn more about it, and how it is used.

I must have missed something then because I certainly didn't hear much about BIOS settings. I heard them mention the custom BIOS they got, but not much about the settings themselves, either CPU or GPU. Perhaps that was in a different stream?

I meant when i watch extreme overclocking in general.
Interesting was the software the used to OC with(not EVGA's PX1, but the RTX Classified Controller only for KP cards though

.)

By the way everything you want to learn about Kingpin cards and overclocking them can be found here:

Got it :)

And I'm sure some will use that link, but it's not for me since I'm going nowhere near that extreme to OC a GPU, let alone pay that much for a one, but that's me. Heck I had a hard time justifying $700 for my card

For you guys still playing with 2080 ti's the KPE XOC bios can be flashed to a 2080 ti. It has no power limit and allows for voltage to exceed 1.093.

Be careful is all I would say.

New version of EVGA PX1 released, version 3.17 BETA. Hopefully the unnecessarily high CPU usage on the desktop has been fixed!!

Not so keen on no power limit, I would feel safer having a 450-480W or so capped BIOS. I'm not exactly sure how much more power the 2080 Ti is capable of, I think Buildzoid talked about it, I need to have a look.
