No the wooden dowel. That is the rolling pin mentioned earlier I made last night. We didn't have one.

What’s recommended for routers these days? I think the 12 year old linksys router is getting ready to die.

I’m partial to Netgear Nighthawk for home use, but Ubiquiti is a little bit more high end for the discerning.

You guys are silly AF

I'll try and find my posts later when I get a chance. I know I got double digit drops on gpu and hot spot temps.
Was able to OC beyond 2100MHz stable.

I just had a concern. I think I saw my memory temp get to 90 playing shipment/headquarters on MW after installing. Was wondering if that’s too high.

105 is reported max so it's fine but seems higher than mine from what I can remember. I did buy thermal pads and put extra all over the place though.

My 2070 Super never runs over 80C fwiw. Stock fan curve and mild OC.

Nice, just a tad behind my mild OC never over 70 card that was $100 less.

We need a base line. What's you stock score?
ETA: I like doing the ePeen shite and no one does it anymore. I like the motivation to find ways to make mine faster.

Technically that was 2036MHz and the Asus Strix OC is 2035.
I think that's the stock reference one.

Also these leaks/rumors on Ryzen 4000 are pretty nutty. 17% IPC increase and 300MHz clock.
Posted on 12/27/19 at 10:03 pm to UltimateHog
Yeah, they are. I've heard that it may be as close as March. Is that right?

Just reached top 6 in the world with my combo:
I haven't pushed mine that far and I think I can get 1st.
ETA: Now 5th. I can definitely get in the top 3

A how-to video on YouTube I watched had a guy saying you could just put a whole thermal pad sheet between the board and the backplate. It was more of a suggestion really.
Posted on 12/28/19 at 12:28 am to finchmeister08
Yeah I put it everywhere just about. 
Posted on 12/28/19 at 12:36 am to UltimateHog
I also didn’t put on the side clips. Didn’t make since to seeing where I the thermal pads were located. I didn’t put that plastic sheet on either.
