We all know for a while now that MSI is working on a Lightning Z graphics card based on the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, we expect an announcement soon enough. Some photos just surfaced, alongside some scree... MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Lightning Z PCB Photos, gets overclocked to 2450 MHz
If it's anything like Pascal where you could overclock quite high but the performance decreased noticeably. It'd be interesting to see performance over stock.
Funny thing is that this card could have been an "insanely expensive card that smashes price records" but since the 2080Ti series regardless of model already is that...what's left to name the Lightning card?
that stuff is protecting against condensation. so teh parts dont get tooo wet when doin dryIce or nitro OCing...
sincle article mentions that "Gunslinger" and "Littleboy" overclocked it, then posted subsequent screenshots + images ... one would imagine that they used LN2 (as article hints at). rubber is often used in LN2 setups ... as you don't get moisture buildup ... hence the rubber is probably a "custom add-on" rather than a standard spec "out of the box" design. [EDIT] : beaten by BetA.
I get it, that its rubber coating, and why. Just curious, if someone knows, where to get it, or is it just rubber, that they have smelted by themself.
not shure, could be Plasti Dip.. https://www.amazon.com/Performix-Plasti-Multipurpose-Rubber-Coating/dp/B000LNOOEO/ or something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Gardner-Bender-LTB-400-4-Ounce-Electrical/dp/B000FPAN2K anyway Buildzoid does nice videos about that stuff.. heres a video where he explains what he is using, in the first 3 minutes..
google "liquid rubber" + "liquid rubber paint" ... while I haven't used it in terms of IT/motherboards - have previously used similar at work for "small/intricate rubber work" + custom design (artwork).
Not all that impressed really, wasn't the Strix 2080Ti used as a test bench for the new Ray tracing benchmark from futuremark and that was running over 2.6Ghz.
