2017 Hardware Thread

For those a bit more daring:

MSI Afterburner 4.4.0 beta 11 is available:

http://office.guru3d.com/afterburner...p440Beta11.rar

- I've added new options allowing you to display OSD history graphs for any graph from MSI Afterburner hardware monitoring module. New option is called "OSD item type", it is located in "Monitoring" tab next to "Show in OSD" option. It allows you to display each item as a text (i.e. like it was displayed before), as a history graph, or as a combination of both text and graph. That's early initial implementation of graphs embedded in OSD, which allows you to feel the graphs and allows us to polish the final implementation, so suggestions on desired graph layout are welcomed. For example, I'm not sure if we need additional labels with graph names next to each one, I'm not sure if current values displayed next to graph are necessary (personally I tend to remove them as they are duplicating text displayed above) etc.
OSD Layout selection setting has been moved a bit above, it is located in separate line now.

RTSS included in distributive is also upgraded to beta 25. It contains some internal changes related to graphs rendering implementation.

Oh! You have the same as Steve.
To take them apart, it sure "looks" much easier than my 1080 Aero 8GB OC(basically an out of box overclocked founders edition).
But yeah, I can understand the feeling 100%:)
I wouldn't be so worried about breaking anything, just scared of loosing the wrong screw

He skipped the "hard" part. It only shows him removing the back plate. That just exposes the backside of the PCB. That's where the 'fun' begins.

The one thing I did find interesting Steve, he suggested to put our card into Slave Mode for better overclocking .....I have not tried that ....yet. :)

It has a slightly different stock fan profile , but has a higher TDP. It will allow up to 127%. If you aren't overclocking that high, you don't really need it. I use it all the time, need it or not.

The only time I would ever dream of taking any card apart, would be to water cool(AIO), otherwise, for me personally, the chances of screwing up/breaking/ or loosing something, just isn't worth it.

But you Steve, are a brave and bold OCer
Have you though about repasting?
