Honestly, i really think that part of the reason that I enjoy watching your channel is cause you have that 'super knowledgeable casual guy' vibe about you. The fact that you joke around and don't stick to a perfect script makes you seem really genuine and I actually like that. Don't worry so much about messing up :) Content is great :D
Can't wait till your channel grows to the point where people will literally send you cards just so you can show you're audience how capable each card is. Putting videos out in a more reliable manner will probably aid in your channel growth, so less takes (like you did for this video) would be greatly appreciated.
The only concern there is that I might not get sent things that are bad for fear of them being bad. Then again that's kinda what the Patreon would cover.
Great video review as always. Question: Can you do a review on the PCB of the XFX RX 480 8GB RS version which is shorter than the GTR? That would be awesome!
I have a question, Buildzoid. Is there any possibility for motherboard related content in the future? I would be interested in motherboard content in the future alongside this, assuming it didn't interfere too much with what is already being done.
Hi Buildzoid, in case you haven't looked at your inbox, I've left you Zotac GTX 1070 Mini PCB shots on your TH-cam inbox. These might be of interest to you. Cheers.
What are the row of capacitors by the pcie connector on the back side of the card? I managed to chip one off pulling the shroud off of my gigabyte 1050Ti OC low profile card, and I'd like to try and fix it.
Plz can you make a video about gigabyte H310 vrm? I have some issues with intel power lime throttling i3 9100f PSU : cv450 I'm really like your videos Thank you.
@Buildzoid. a quick and properbly stupid question. i want to flash a better bios on my rx 480. Can i use the elmore unlooked bios ore do i need to modd the existing bios on my card. And i can't get my vram stable over 2100 mhz why is that so and how can i fix it. Sorry for my bad english. Hope you can answer my question.
the low maximum memory clock is probably going to be a memory controller limitation. You can't really get around that. As for BIOSs the Elmore BIOS doesn't work on all cards. IMO it's best to just take you current BIOS and tweak it for more power and better memory timings.
Thanks for your quick answer. if its a controler limitation than most saphire nitro cards will not like meory colck at all. If testet 3 cards and the best managed 2130 mhz 24/7
Anyone want to help me out. I am thinking of buying an rx 480 8gb however I am not sure which one to buy. I have narrowed it down to Sapphire Nitro + Overclock which is on sale currently for 249.99, XFX Black Editon, and MSI Gaming X.
i would really love to apply a volt mod to this any information would be greatly apprecated my cards starting to get dated and i could be easly convinced to upgrade aka time to push it to the max lol
the point about nv bioses being locked down on the 10 series made me think , i have an R9 290 (reference turbine card) , are there any optimized bioses out there (not just a 290x flash) that i could take advantage of? hence this is a ref card the bios is 3 years old and maybe it has been improved later
You could try tweak the power limits if by any chance you are managing to hit the 450W limit the ref cards have when at +50% power. You could also tweak the VRAM timings for a bit more performance.
i've always undervolted my cards since a 7970(969mV for 925MHz) and now my RX 480,1005mV for 1266MHz AUX voltage at 820mV,and tweaked the timings,much less heat and noise,extended lifetime yay,thats something really good you can do to an R9 290 reference,but since AHOC is all about blowing voltages at 1.4V+,he will recommend increasing everything,including the jet noise.
Hello, i have a GTX 960 g1 gaming with a custom bios (wich helps a lot i maxed out all tabs on power consumtion) and i want to ask you: If i do shunt mod with extreme bios mod i can damage my card? With cool laboratory pro. stock bios: ufile.io/8f1a9 extreme one: ufile.io/4d20a Links will expire in 30days. Thanks in advance. P.S.: sorry for my bad english if i write wrong something. :D
You can get a core to die by overheating it or by running too much voltage through it for a long time. Generally however GPUs fail due to the FCBGA(silicon to substrate bonds) failing after a few years of thermal cycling. Occaisionaly you can also crack the BGA mounts from the substrate to the PCB but that generally does happen. Other failures are caps degrading(which leads to bad voltage regualtion which causes instability/failure to function) and VRMs burning out.
FIRST!
BTW this was done in less takes than most of my other videos. Is it any worse? Because I don't think it is.
Actually Hardcore Overclocking it's not worse. hell, the only way I even noticed was that you just said that.
good because that means I crank up the production speed. More content is after all more better. ;)

Asus Rog Strix Gtx1070 PLEASE!
in case you haven't looked at your inbox, I've left you Zotac GTX 1070
Mini PCB shots on your TH-cam inbox. These might be of interest to you.
Cheers.
10:40 Yeh vendors, give him free samples! I block all ads but I just sat here for 15 minutes looking at an ASUS logo, think about it....

Did you end up overclocking this card or any other 1050Ti? I am curious if 14nm samsung process did really improve voltage/temperature scaling.
alright, so i want to volt mod mine. how would i go about doing that?
Great video review as always. Question: Can you do a review on the PCB of the XFX RX 480 8GB RS version which is shorter than the GTR? That would be awesome!
Can you make videos where you explain what all the important parts of the PCBs are and how it affects overclocking?
@ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking would the board still function if you remove the capacitor at PGCE9/PGCE4?
I have a question, Buildzoid. Is there any possibility for motherboard related content in the future? I would be interested in motherboard content in the future alongside this, assuming it didn't interfere too much with what is already being done.
Mobos are harder to get photos of. However as the channel is growing I will probably be able to get board samples.
Hi, where did you get this HD photos? You can send it to me?
Hi Buildzoid,
in case you haven't looked at your inbox, I've left you Zotac GTX 1070 Mini PCB shots on your TH-cam inbox. These might be of interest to you. Cheers.
The Ausus PH-GTX1050TI-4G also has the same design ie 1.8v and Pex.. on a GDDR5 mem card.. go figure
What are the row of capacitors by the pcie connector on the back side of the card? I managed to chip one off pulling the shroud off of my gigabyte 1050Ti OC low profile card, and I'd like to try and fix it.
Hello my friend. would you have the boardview?
Could you do the MSI 4G OC? I will take the board shots if necessary when I get the chance.
Where can i get the systematic view of that pcb ?
Hello my friend. What does the U504 do?
I have the OC version of this card, pretty nice card for the price (before the miners did their shit to the video card market)
Plz can you make a video about gigabyte H310 vrm?
I have some issues with intel power lime throttling i3 9100f
PSU : cv450
I'm really like your videos
Thank you.
Can I use this card with a blueberry psb520? It has low amp but would it be enough for this card? tnx
can you know about AMCJ 225 ic details
@Buildzoid. a quick and properbly stupid question. i want to flash a better bios on my rx 480. Can i use the elmore unlooked bios ore do i need to modd the existing bios on my card.

Hmm maybe not then it could also be something to do with the design. Are they 4GB or 8GB cards?
8 gb
PEX controls the PCI slot voltage.
do the gigabyte g1 gaming oc please!!! i want to order this card but am holding off just to know if it's really worth the price 👍

Maybe im wrong but did you miss the 5V Point on the back ?
yeah missed it
Does a single Vram chip = 1gb worth of memory?
do a EVGA gtx 970 FTW+
Do Asus Rog Strix Gtx1070 Breakdown Please !!!!
Can you make tuto for OC rx 480 (stab) plz
good stuff!!
Zotac GTX 1080 AMP next please ! :D
i would really love to apply a volt mod to this any information would be greatly apprecated my cards starting to get dated and i could be easly convinced to upgrade aka time to push it to the max lol
Here is the link to the Zotac GTX 1080 amp videocardz.com/60547/comparison-of-custom-geforce-gtx-1080-pcbs
that's not the Zotac AMP. That's the PGF and it's China exclusive so I can't get any proper PCB pictures for it.

As far as I know newer BIOS revisions dont usually bring performance improvements. The driver usually does that.
ah okay

johannesv lol. What did you expect? This is actually hardcore overclocking. Not hardcore saving £2 a year on your power bill :P
please msi gtx 1050ti gaming x circuit diagram
Still no answer 🙄🙄
TALK ABOUT RYZEN if you want to ya know
Hello, i have a GTX 960 g1 gaming with a custom bios (wich helps a lot i maxed out all tabs on power consumtion) and i want to ask you: If i do shunt mod with extreme bios mod i can damage my card? With cool laboratory pro.
stock bios: ufile.io/8f1a9
extreme one: ufile.io/4d20a
Links will expire in 30days.
Thanks in advance.
P.S.: sorry for my bad english if i write wrong something. :D
In a failed graphics card, is the core ever the part that dies?
mike fox Suppose the probability of that happening is the same as a CPU dying.
You can get a core to die by overheating it or by running too much voltage through it for a long time. Generally however GPUs fail due to the FCBGA(silicon to substrate bonds) failing after a few years of thermal cycling. Occaisionaly you can also crack the BGA mounts from the substrate to the PCB but that generally does happen. Other failures are caps degrading(which leads to bad voltage regualtion which causes instability/failure to function) and VRMs burning out.
no upload in 2 weeks?.... unsubing
You are racist
