M106, Time to get some sleep now

That is awesome!

Cool GTX
Cool picture
Is there is a smudge in the center of your lens ... or did you toss a Frisbee in front of your camera

Ha! An X-Files Fan

congrats on the new toy
 
you might want to look for a water block that has an active cooling backplate ... apparently RAM mounted on the Back gets toasty on 3090 - when pushed

I ordered the Signature GPU Block - Kingpin 3090 so it should be here in time to install.

I will play with the GPU on X299K Rig that now has a GTX1080Ti Hybrid Graphics Card.
Then I will replace my Z390 with the 2080 Kingpin with the EVGA Z590 DARK and the new RTX 3090 Kingpin and cool it all with my Chiller.
I found out that I may not be able to use this Water Block on the Z590 Dark

My 3090KP will be here today so I was out in the garage looking for where in the "you know" did I pack my computer tools and found a brand new unopened 2080 KP Water Block. I got for my second card but EVGA would never let me order another one.
I also found two 1080 Ti FTW3 HC along wit two 1080 Ti HC and even two 1080 TI FTW Hybrid Kits and two 1080 HC wow I really stuffed stuff away
Well at least I have some good backups for my current cards, I might even change out my 1080 Ti FTW3 Hybrid Cards and put some HC on them and build a new rig and put both of them in one rig. No I only have find to Tools

Odd that I could not add an Affiliate Code code when I registered my KP.
Has EVGA done way with the Affiliate Code Program?

Yes they did about a month or two ago.

Wow! $22 for UPS Shipping, Time For EVGA to use USPS or FedX.

Nice telescope and pics Bill. Real nice setup.
I have the Celestron 130SLT not bought any cameras, was thinking about it.
Wish I could find a new place out in the country with no street lights.
Light pollution at my house makes it a bit more difficult to get good views.
Real-estate prices here are through the roof though.

Last week images. On M42 I like the bottom one the most as I like it darker that is.
 
 NGC 2023 Horsehead Nebulae and NGC 2024 Flame Nebulae

 The Orion Nebula (M42) and Running Man Nebula (M43)

 The Orion Nebula (M42) and Running Man Nebula (M43)

I got notified today that the EVGA HYDRO COPPER for the GeForce RTX 3090 K|NGP|N, 400-HC-1999-B1 card was available today so I went ahead and ordered it being it will take months to get the Optimus EVGA Kingpin's Signature GPU Block.

My son in law has the google pixel 6 pro and he said it has a setting to take astrophotography pics
I have an adapter that can put a phone on a scope or a telescope. 
Next time I take it out too his house will see if we can get any pics. Not expecting much though. 

It takes time to learn this, at least for me so do give up.
The hard part for me was the Post Processing of the image.
Taking them and Stacking them and all was easy to learn only need to use the right application.
I could not do this with my iPad so I use a Windows 10 Computer to image and to Post Process the images.
 
One of my first images from back in 2003 or 2004.
M43 The Running Man Nebula

 
M57 Ring Nebula (I will image this in late May this year)
 

 

Wow! Running Einstein@Home  Tasks on the KPE running One Tasks shows 655 Watts on my UPS Unit.
No Tasks running my UPS Unit shows 230 Watts so the KPE alone is running 425 Watts.
This is 200-250+ Watts more than any other BOINC GPU Task to include Folding.

I enjoy those astronomy pics. It's amazing what's out there in space.

There was a cricket match where the cameraman focused on Jupiter. Crazy how powerful those professional sports cameras are!

Thanks,
Wow! you can even see some of the Moons.

Only the Best
 
Hello,

The 400-HC-1999-B1 doesn't have any thermal paste on it. It will have thermal putty already applied. It is the same standard putty that we use for anything that needs thermal putty.

Regards,
EVGA
