      Dunno dude, many big brands including ASUS and Gigabyte have blower models of the 2080 Ti.

      @1mplies 4 роки тому +26

      they are usually loud. Blowers generally call for one fan on the side opposite the exhaust, so that limitation means high rpm to compensate, and thus a vacuum cleaner. As beneficial as the theory sounds, some heat in the case generally is a worthwhile trade off.
      In my opinion however older GTX founder's edition blowers were sexy as fuck.

With me being new to gaming computers and not really having any knowledge on how to build one, I decided to get a prebuilt one anyways. It's an Aurora R9, and I chose to get a i7-9700k processor and a 2060 RTX Super GPU. I did go with the liquid cooling which was recommended for the higher end processors. Do you think I'll be good in shape or is there any concerns to have? Also I heard about the possibilities of having to change out the liquid in the coolers, but I know with certain liquid coolers it doesn't require maintenance. Can somebody with good and experienced knowledge give me some insight on this? I hope I didn't make too dumb of a decision or that I won't have to learn the hard way. I spent about $1700 on this computer so I can only hope it'll be worth it.

      not necessarily the case. most prebuilts, either from origin or whatever, have off the shelf components like a gpu from msi or a cooler from bequiet or whatever. oem prebuilts are the things to look out for as they usually modify the components (the cooling solution in most instances and i dont know why). so one might be better off buying a system from a "3rd party" company and in most cases save a few bucks.

    I was already preparing a comment to say this looks like an Alienware model before you said it. You can't fit anything bigger than this in the Aurora Chassis, and it's really only intended to hold blower style cards due to space and airflow restrictions.
    I've heard these cards are configured to work best with Alienware's own firmware, but sometimes you get a unit that needs updating and tweaking before the card understands how to run properly even in an Alienware's system. That's just what I've heard. I don't work in the computer industry, and I don't know nearly as much as professionals like you.

I tried to put and EK backplate on myself and it had issues heat and crashing issues like that.
    It’s even uglier without a backplate 😂 however when the card is set to custom control the loud ass blower fan (increased by 70%) to keep it cool and does a great job. I’ve even overclocked it 2k + with 0 issues. I think you got unlucko on this one from the seller.

    I think it’s a blower model with molded case airflow channels that make it get sufficient airflow. Without the molded airways airflow decreases immensely

    Blower models with air intake at the front are perfect for data centre servers that have lots of fans that push air from front to back. I'm in the market for a few more for my work's 10 GPU capable Supermicro supergpu servers.

      This is what I did a few months back. I got the evga 2080 Ti XC Ultra for a little under 1k used. The kraken and AIO was an additional 100 and it's been running smoothly ever since.

      Ebay allows buyers to abuse the system, even though it is their fault and there is nothing wrong with the item. :)

      The reason eBay tends to side with buyers is this: without the confidence that you are protected there is no eBay. There will always be sellers. But without demand there is nothing.

    But would it make sense to buy the cheapest 2090 ti if you plan swapping the built in cooler for something third party anyways?
