Sam. Nvidia is pronounced "En-vid-eea." The N is pronounced like a long vowel. You're going to get eaten alive for pronouncing it "nna-vid-eea," or "nn-vid-eea."

Considering Nvidia is all over the news all the time, I really makes me worry about how thorough the research was for this video.

I am curious as to how many of you illustrious FW users with Framework 13 AMD edition units are running GPU drivers from AMD directly, as opposed to the certified Framework driver (23.40.18.02).

Assuming you've installed them and decided to not roll-back to FW's set, what has your experience been?

I specifically ask because I'm deeply interested in Dynamic Refresh Rate with the new 2.8k display. FW is dragging their feat on updating the driver package, and I'm willing to put up with some problems if it means I can gain that feature.

I've checked Home Depot and Lowes, and so far no one has LED light channeling. I'd prefer to check some stuff out in person since it's going to be mounted visibly.

I've run across some great websites that aren't Amazon, like SuperlightingLED, but online is a last resort.

So, any Lighting stores around the south bay?

Setup: MSI X570 Gaming Plus, BIOS 7C37vAK (AGESA 1.2.0.A.) 32GB 3600MHz. 280mm AIO, 750w EVGA Gold PSU, 6700XT.

SOC Voltage 1.08v for peace of mind.

Tried out a little negative voltage offset with Curve Optimizer. Started with -10/allcore, and it scared the crap out of me:

Cinebench R23 Multi Stock behavior: 4.2GHz, 1.25-1.26v (SVI2 TFN Sensor).

R23 Multi -10 Offset behavior: 4.45GHz, 1.29v.

It just bounces off the 1.3v limit on the chip, which is Frightening. I only let this ride for a few seconds before stopping R23. I was worried I was going to fry my X3D. Next step was to try -20 offset

R23 Multi -20 behavior: 4.45GHz, 1.28v

Clearly this isn't what I wanted.

Hello fellow geeks. I'm seeking some advice about my 6700XT Red Devil and repasting.

Following advice from a user in the AMDHelp sub, u/DelayNo9376, I bought Gelid Extreme 0.5mm and 1mm thermal pads for the VRAM/VRMs. Overall, memory temps are actually a tad worse, but I believe that's because the Gelid pads are flat, stock pads were phat and fluffy mushed down, and the heatsink has a screw dimple that slightly overlaps one of the mem chips.

First tries: Using Kryonaut, I achieved -5c temp, -8c hotspot. This lasted for a few days, and then temps quickly climbed to +5c, +10c hotspot over stock. I repasted again with the same results and behaviors.

Then, following further advice, I switc
