How did you beat Jay and Steve at RTX 3090 SLI OCing? – Probing Paul #53
⇨ Sponsor: iBuyPower Element CL Liquid Cooled PCs |
This month I did a special intro for Probing Paul (my monthly Q&A) to address my recent victory in Round 1 (air cooling w/AC assistance) of the #RIPJAY and #RIPGN RTX 3090 SLI Overclocking challenge — no one has beat my score of 27595 in 3DMark Port Royal without resorting to “fancy” cooling methods like LN2 and water cooling. Using this narrow definition I have determined myself to be the winner!
