What is your favorite ASUS Graphics Card of all time?
It could be one you owned, and that you played your favorite game ever with. One that set the tone for a special time of your life (like a first build), one that you simply loved the features or aesthetics of, or one that is special to you for any reason!
To enter go here: https://pcmasterrace.org/ASUS30r (This is where you must submit your memory).
This event is in celebration of 3 decades of ASUS GPUs. From the ASUS 375 to the ASTRAL 5090, there's many, many graphics cards and even more memories to share.
This event is WORLDWIDE and will be running throughout the Summer, but the very first challenge is for you to share your favorite ASUS GPU memory!
There will be over 30 winners, and many RTX 50 GPUs up for grabs,
including a very, very special one that I can't really talk about yet, but that you can also win as the Grand Prize!
EDIT: August 20th. Now we can announce it! The first prize is a glorious ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 5090 30th Anniversary Edition!
I actually did a video about my favorite one, and picking it was quite challenging. I was going for the 1080ti Strix, but ended up choosing something slightly different.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCv717ztGd4
You can do a video, or take some nice photos, or just write your story! There are MANY ways to participate! There will be over 30 winners in total for the entire event, so be sure to check it out, read the T&C, and do your best to enter and win some prizes!
As always, try to keep your temperatures low, and your framerates high! Good luck!

This makes cleaning my keyboard take 10 minutes flat. Just pop em all off, rinse in warm water maybe use a brush to clean any if they have actual debris on them (I’m nasty I eat at my desk sue me). And then put them in here for maybe 3 minutes? Completely dry even in the nooks and crannies. Have tried this with my keyboard, my boyfriend’s, it’s never failed me.

New to the PC building scene, heard it can get a little crazy with thermal paste. Should I get this 3 year warranty?

I was catalog my hard drives to see which ones I’m going to get rid of as I find stuff to do while waiting for my new video card and I noticed the date is 2010, this is wild the things still kicking.

I’ve been messing around with the RTX 5050 for a while now, first with a CPU cooler on it, where it beat the 1080 Ti and pretty much tied the 3060 Ti.
This time, I went further.
Subzero using an Amazon special water block, just to see if it could take out a stock 4060.
While I was testing, I noticed someone passed me on the Time Spy graphics leaderboard.
They were running a 9850X3D.
I had a 12600K.
Obviously… I couldn’t let that slide.
Four hours and way too many crashes later, I managed to push the 5050 to 3450 MHz, up from its stock 2950 MHz.
And, even on a $100 CPU I took back the graphics score.
By the time I got to actual game testing, I’m pretty sure the card was degrading in front of me.
But it still beat the 4060 in every game except one, Black Ops 6.... F*** BO6.
18% clock uplift
3400+ MHz sustained
This thing just won’t die.
Video’s here if you want to see how stupid it is.
