How cheap are we talking about?

@Deleted User http://hetzner.de

Cheap isn't exactly the word I think of when I read hetzner

You can get a quality dedi for not a lot

No contract BS

Even their auction thing doesn't go that low

For GBP is damn good

Much better compared to the likes of OVH

>ASUS in charge of thermal paste

290X?

Yeah

I'm gonna repaste mine

I'll report with pre-paste verdict

The cooler is extremely easy to take off, so there's that

What paste are you using?

I've just got some CM stuff

I had to use the paste from the 212 cooler, because I couldn't find the Arctic one I had laying around...

>mullvad isnt free

no thanks

Arctic Silver is great

Relatively inexpensive, too

@zambz literally 5€ a month

@hypertextcoffee but i dont like paying for stuff on the internet

Repasting didn't seem to make any difference.

You can use buttcoin

Or even send them the money in the mail

@tablecat not surprising, Hawaii is the hottest core since Fermi

Or maybe it did.
The I still get ~93c temps, but I got a 30-40 fps increase in the PSU test, so that's good

@cathy I just came back from a shower, I'm talking less than $15 a year

That's excellent, maybe it's not throttling now?

Idk

It throttles at 95c by default, so I'm 99% it's still throttling.

Ah okay

brb

>the pro norwegian sports people play pokemon go

@cathy

fak

`The temperature target of the AMD Radeon R9 290 is set to 95C by default, but GPU-Z showed that we were hitting 94C and not going over that temperature. The fan was spinning at 2529RPM or 47%`

I'll see how it is in Overwatch

I'd happily have the target lower if the fans spin up higher
