Buildzoid raises a good point: The (140A) "Pulsed Drain Current" capability of the high-side MOSFET is indeed for INTERMITTENT pulses. It is difficult to predict what a high-frequency/low-duty-cycle rating would be in this case; there are different formulae that can do so, but they're each specific to different MOSFET architecture; there's no "one size fits all" equation for it. That being said, my guess (as an EE) would be that they're probably good for (conservatively) 50A at 500KHz 1/12th duty - (since we have six phases and a high-side/low-side split), but that's purely a guess (albeit one informed by past experience). I might grab some and test them to destruction to get an ACTUAL spec. (If so, I'll post the results).
would to take a look at the asus workstation (X99 WS) boards? they are made without all the RGB flashy crap and put the money in components and stabliity. i would love to hear your take on those if thay are honestin their claims. ps: congrats on the new logo and are you planning to do more coop with other channels?
I have a problem with this card. LED diode @ 8 pin power connector is flashing,sometimes randomly, sometimes 10 or 20 times, but card is working fine, temp are also normal. What these flashing means ?
still in the planning stage because I keep buying GPUs instead of parts needed for the chiller. Though I think at 10K subs I'll ask EK or some other Waco company for support.
maybee alphacool can help you. At them moement im in contact with them because im trying to bild my owne Tec Chiller. Maybe they have a proper block for cooling 2 40 mm x 40 mm 60 W and 60 X 60 235 W Tecs. Hopfully they can help me and maybe even you
I'd like to get one of amd's new cards based on the Vega. would you be interested in me shipping the card to you for testing? I'd like it back, of course. thanks for your consideration.
Can I use the RX 480 BIOS that's on der8auer's overclocking.guide on an MSI Gaming X? Even though the BIOS was released by ASUS. And will it fuck with the fan curve?
Actually Hardcore Overclocking Yes as it turns out using it is benchmark doable, but the memory doesn't want to clock over 2050MHz. Is there any other way I could do 1.3V on this MSI card without using the Elmor BIOS?
you're probably right. I've been kinda off all day and trying to translate the 9511's pinout was the end of my mental capacity. Here's the datasheet if you want to check: www.ubiq-semi.com/files/1486/9d6c41b9-f7ba-11e5-88e3-c6d5d9c034c4
Can you tell me what are those little ractangle thingies around the GPU core? I was cleaning the thermal paste off my 1070 and one fell off! Surprisingly the card appears to work just fine. Any idea what they are and what effect it could have removing one?
I thought so, even though they look more to me like a resistor. Do you think it will have any effect? I have an RMA in process anyway since it was related to the EVGA thermal mod, so they're sending me one through advanced RMA. That means until I send mine back, I'll have 2. SLI 1070's, lets see what you got!
What happens if instead of using liquid metal paste for the power mod you just put a little piece of aluminum, like tin foil, and instead of soldering you just stick it in place with some tape? That could work or I'm gonna brick the card? :D
Ey buildzoid, novice hardware moder here, can you explain why hooking up the potentiometer to Vcore and the usual ground and sense pin of the controller lets you control the voltage the way you mentioned. Please don't spare the tehnical details. Thx
The reason I recommend using the same size shunts is because if you drop the current reading too low the Nvidia drivers will go into safety mode and lock the card at 139MHz
Pretty much all the brands that aren't ASUS are chasing after getting their own version of "ROG". Which leads to all the bizzaro naming schemes and constant renaming. The thing is I feel that ROG was built up over several years of existence and was constantly targeted only at the high end. Whereas all the other brands roll out some new "premium brand" and yet stuff it full of budget products. So in a year they need to launch a new "premium brand" because the last one didn't stick.
Why can't the Pascal BIOS be modded? Or perhaps rather: Why could previous generation BIOS' be modded? If nvidia properly implemented a semi-decent signature scheme then there should be little hope of cracking that, short of somebody leaking the master key (assuming the signature verification takes place on the actual card?). So how did previous generation BIOS modding work? Did nvidia simply not sign/lock down BIOS? Did they use an insecure signature scheme?
I don't know why there aren't any options to mod Pascal BIOS. I just know there aren't. For previous Nvidia cards there was BIOS modding tools. Again I never looked into them that much as I haven't had many Nvidia cards and of the ones I've had I've so far had no need for modded BIOSs. From the little I've seen of some of the past BIOS tools it just looks like Nvidia BIOS is way more complicated than AMD's and Nvidia is really trying to crack down on unofficial overclocking. Pascal is the first series of Nvidia cards to enter safety mod if you short the shunts too much, or if you disable the temperature sensing system using a physical mod.
The only "modded" BIOS for Nvidia cards is the unlocked BIOS for the 1080 STRIX and that was made using Nvidia's official BIOS making tools. Now theoretically you might able to figure how that BIOS manages to be "unlocked" and then copy that into another BIOS. However I wouldn't put it past Nvidia to not put a BIOS signature check on their cards.
Fancy new channel logo you got there. Like it!
thanks took a while to make it

I want to learn more about the parts and circuits involved with PC PCB's. Are there any websites/TH-cam channels you'd recommend I visit?
I'd like to know this as well
What have you found ? How's your career already

great video been following long time. keep them up.
Are the cheapest PNY and Palit 1060s OK, PCB-wise?
Brother my gtx 1060 6g hdmi output is not working but dp is working give me a solution
Can you check the value of the resistor R46? I have this card but this resistor is gone :(
A number!

Actually Hardcore Overclocking hi buildzoid. I was wonder if u know how to push 50% power limit of sapphire r9 380 nitro on driver 17.1.1.
quick question buildzoid
how is your tec water chiller doing ?
still in the planning stage because I keep buying GPUs instead of parts needed for the chiller. Though I think at 10K subs I'll ask EK or some other Waco company for support.

i have used conductonaut for shunt mods and the shunt fell off after like 2 months but the R002 shunt didnt fall off and it was modded for 5 months
Hi, can you do 1060 6gb expedition i am really curious about ASUSs' complete different pcb layout!
Can I use the RX 480 BIOS that's on der8auer's overclocking.guide on an MSI Gaming X? Even though the BIOS was released by ASUS. And will it fuck with the fan curve?
It's probably not going to be compatible since the MSI is very different from the reference cards.
Actually Hardcore Overclocking
Yes as it turns out using it is benchmark doable, but the memory doesn't want to clock over 2050MHz. Is there any other way I could do 1.3V on this MSI card without using the Elmor BIOS?
Isn't that pin 30 you highlighted on that up9511?
you're probably right. I've been kinda off all day and trying to translate the 9511's pinout was the end of my mental capacity. Here's the datasheet if you want to check: www.ubiq-semi.com/files/1486/9d6c41b9-f7ba-11e5-88e3-c6d5d9c034c4
Can you tell me what are those little ractangle thingies around the GPU core? I was cleaning the thermal paste off my 1070 and one fell off! Surprisingly the card appears to work just fine. Any idea what they are and what effect it could have removing one?
those are capacitors
I thought so, even though they look more to me like a resistor. Do you think it will have any effect? I have an RMA in process anyway since it was related to the EVGA thermal mod, so they're sending me one through advanced RMA. That means until I send mine back, I'll have 2. SLI 1070's, lets see what you got!
it might clock a bit worse or be unstable in certain scenarios since those are bypass caps for voltages powering the chip
that person you referenced, is he a German TH-camr? the guy you said something about some paste.
Rodney Rogers yes. search der8auer
I did, and the video I saw was in german mostly. x-x D'ya know off the top of your head if he does English videos?
shoud i buy the 1060 gaming X or the asus strix?
Buy and RX 480(XFX GTR/ASUS STRIX/MSI Gaming). OC vs OC the 480 will win against a 1060 and at stock the 480 matches the 1060 in DX11 and wins DX12.
All ASUS STRIX Polaris with understated power limit.
Best of AMD RX is Sapphire Nitro + and XFX GTR / HIS Roaring...
My RX 480 STRIX doesn't have any temp or power limit issues. It temp throttles above 85C and has a 110W power limit just like any other RX 480.
with the stock bios? What are your offsets if I may ask?
Offsets?
What happens if instead of using liquid metal paste for the power mod you just put a little piece of aluminum, like tin foil, and instead of soldering you just stick it in place with some tape? That could work or I'm gonna brick the card? :D
Ey buildzoid, novice hardware moder here, can you explain why hooking up the potentiometer to Vcore and the usual ground and sense pin of the controller lets you control the voltage the way you mentioned. Please don't spare the tehnical details. Thx
It's old and it's probably even worse than what I make now but it should cover everything you need to know: th-cam.com/video/4BYdAm_Atts/w-d-xo.html
can i use 0.01 ohm resistor on 0.005 ohm shunt and how much power increase will that be
The reason I recommend using the same size shunts is because if you drop the current reading too low the Nvidia drivers will go into safety mode and lock the card at 139MHz
Yey!
Is this a good 1060?
The "Xtreme Gaming" brand was renamed to "Aorus". I think they just made it worse.
Pretty much all the brands that aren't ASUS are chasing after getting their own version of "ROG". Which leads to all the bizzaro naming schemes and constant renaming. The thing is I feel that ROG was built up over several years of existence and was constantly targeted only at the high end.
