Intel getting Singaporean CEO you think it'd turn things around for them? I'm excited to know what will happen to Intel now!

What is this USB-C-C cable you speak of? I would like to have the mora running independent of my PC but thats the Active controller which isn't available yet, so I need the passive one that connects to motherboard headers.
Are the tube fittings the correct ones, last time I did watercooling was Intel Core i9 7900X and had a friend select the tubing/fitting for me.
I did see Alphacool offer 5080 waterblock for Zotac cards but it seems it voids the warranty and I'm definitely not keeping the card when next gen releases.

So its better that I just get the Gigabyte cards thats already waterblocked?For waterblocking, at least for local cards, it seems like the policy now is that it will void your warranty. But generally if you put back the card together and send it in for servicing, it's fine, unless they are very picky about the stickers.
So its better that I just get the Gigabyte cards thats already waterblocked?
Anyway I ordered these should be coming in this week or next, if its still not good enough then I'll have to get the Mora. It's no fun to get high end memory and not OC them.

whats the modern way of removing ddr5 heatsink now?actually you can try removing the gskill heatsink and have bare pcb cooling, may lower temps more
He will be claiming the credit of Pat's work likely for the next 2 years at least for what Pat has done with his turnaround plan.Should have stuck with Pat, what this new guy bring got different meh? He is not singaporean, malaysian studied here and emigrated to usa, now is american boomer

I have a big bottle of these at home and some container I can use to submerge the memory overnight

hmm don't have paint thinner at home can just use 70% alcohol or should I just order paint thinnertiagong is paint thiner. for single rank ddr5 is harder, make sure to work on the empty pcb side because that side using adhesive tape. the memory side with pads should easily come off.
can follow these user experience and try the kimdoole heatsink, got good feedback on air, it has full coverage of memory chip. some stock heatsink dont even cover fully like my teamgroup, can see one side, parts of ram chips exposed.
mora is expensive but also need a lot of planning and monitoring time
so can try bare ram chips -> bigger fan -> kimdoole -> then mora
see which steps enough for you to stop.![]()
Nice clocks.hmm don't have paint thinner at home can just use 70% alcohol or should I just order paint thinner
ya I will try bigger fan first then ram naked, not sure if I'll get kimdoole if I'm getting something might as well get best

So far running XMP settings temps top out at 51 which is still decent
I really don't like the temperature variance between the DIMMs on the case

DIMM0 is starved from good airflow, DIMM1 eats hot air from 5080 what to do?
these are the XMP clocksNice clocks.
If you're not having errors, I guess you're fine.
Don't increase TREFI further as you'll bound to have errors. It's a temperature sensitive parameter. How are your DIMMs cooled now?
I'm using a Corsair Vengeance cooler with BITSPOWER Heatsinks. Enough to cool down up to 1.6V under 50 degrees. I'm only at 40 degrees after 3 cycles of TM5 1usmus at 1.55V for my 8600C38.

I'd definitely tear down and use better heatsinks. I have the BITSPOWER ones and they are very good. I have a guide on the thickness of the thermal pads required if you want to go down that route. Here it is:these are the XMP clocks, when I got the build setup first day I did 9200C42 (open bench but wasn't stable)

right now I have some of these jonsbo memory cooler, the QA isn't very good so its not on the DIMMs directly, they're running 4000rpm and I can't hear them
