This stream does two things: One, we're testing frequency vs. temperature GPU Boost scaling, two we're overclocking the RTX 3090 FTW3 on air to see if it's useful for an eventual competitive card.
We are low on inventory of our 1 Million Subs limited shirt. Grab one while you can! store.gamersnexus.net/products/limited-gold-foil-1… (you get something cool, high quality, and get to support our further test equipment purchases at the same time. Thank you for 1 million subscribers! It's been a crazy ~13 years since we started the website, and a crazy 11 on YouTube).

We will be using the EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 for this overclocking effort. We will also be testing the RTX 3090 Founders Edition card for frequency scaling versus temperature (not overclocking, just GPU Boost alone).

    “I’m gonna keep my mouth shut until I can do more research because I don’t want to put bad info out there” this is one of the large reasons I watch this channel. Everything I have seen from Steve is incredibly solid and I absolutely dig it.
  • @mon94key
    In the words of his previous stream: Yeah we can hear you fine
  • @mwnciboo
    I love how tech tubers all reference each other - less about competition more about mutual support and benefit to the wider community.
  • @germanmade1219
    Yes, the big tank that says liquid nitrogen on it, is infact liquid nitrogen. Great question, chat.
  • 18:37 "sounds like a bandsaw.." and camera zooms onto the paper getting nibbled at by the fan lol

    I feel like I gained 10 IQ points from witnessing that cardboard shipping tube used to keep the superlong ethernet cable organized.

    What i really learned from this stream - if you need a fan for a short time, use a screwdriver as a stand 👍
  • @wom_Bat
    Your videos are always excellent. Keep it up!
  • @astro143_
    So happy I decided to watch this now, managed to jump on the mouse mat! I had just emailed you guys about that the other day, I was expecting it to be a christmas present to me from me. Thanks! looking forward to RIPGN/Jayz Edit: got it on Friday, this thing is great!
  • Man I remember the old days when Over Clocking actually meant something, you could get real performance boosts out of GPU's and CPU's back then. Now, the cards run at max boost by themselves so OCing is pretty meaningless.
  • @lindamuvic8110
    Really interesting to finally see a nitrogen over clocking of a GPU, always thought it was a parlour trick, but I get it a little bit more now, and that it has a legitimate place in demonstrating GPU, and CPU overclocking.

    Your voice just calmed the hell out of my dog. He was acting crazy all night! Thanks man
