That isn't the problem I'm running into, what is happening is one card has slider options that let me go all the way up to 1400 mhz for the core clock, the other will not let me go past 1050 mhz. I've tried alternate programs and none seem to unlock it and all but CCC or Afterburner seem to be...
Well I've helped the temperature problems quite a bit by swapping the video cards around, so now in they both idle at 45-50C, but now in furmark the top card maxes out at 82 celsius and the bottom is at 75, so I would say overall that it is an improvement. Still don't have any solution for...
So I just got me a 7850 Crossfire setup, and everything went pretty well except for the fact one of the cards can't overclock past 1050 mhz. Currently I'm overclocked at 1050 on Core & 1450 on memory (because I couldn't bump the core)
One is the XFX Double D (it's got an ASIC of like 79) it...
So I've decided it was time to start the process of planning for my new File Storage Systems. Currently I've got 5 HD204UI with about the capacity at 70% full, and have been playing Data Roulette since I have no backup in place for it though the archival system is rarely active (in the 2 years I...
Man It's been awhile since I seen a distortion field like this. Always the problem with forums (Especially Audiophiles) is minor grievances get exploded out of proportion. I personally own a HP ZR24W, I upgraded because my old 1650x1080, got a dead pixel, wanted a 16:10 resolution (1920x1200)...
Unless you planned to rewire the entire house, I think I would make a go at using a powerline type system, while not as good as wire they are generally a tier above as far as connectivity and reliablity compared to wifi (or wireless just hates me at times)
Right, I at least planned on using free weights vs the smith machine part, it has the option for it still (barbell is removable and it can be used on the front with catches, although now that I think about it, didn't ask if that was for squats also.
Figure it's about time for a new update. I didn't really get alot of input before I made my decision (though that power rack does look neat), but I feel pretty safe in it overall. I went and bought a Marcy Diamond Elite Smith System (MD 9010G). In addition I also bought the 300 lb weights...
Quick update on my attempts to secure the equipment. I was going along with my original purchase plan, but that failed miserably. Apparently at least at the Dick's sporting goods I headed to they didn't have the power rack, though they were willing to ship it to me for the kind price of...
I figure I should preface this with a little about me and my goals. I'm currently 23 and 5' 8" and weigh around 210 (appearance wise look closer to 170-180). I'm actually not looking to lose weight, although I won't complain if that happens :P. I'm mostly looking to get fit and build some muscle...
I was hoping for that response that it was software wise, but so many people treated memtest as bullet proof, that it made me hesitant to be insistent on that.
Yeah mobius it still will crash on memtest 4.0a whether it's overclocked on or not generally around 60-70% completion. In addition on prime 95 I had it test the small FFT's for about an hour or so, to try to get it to trip up even a bit.
Concerning in WinDBG BSOD codes in reverse order...
Virge I was just throwing it out as a possibility since, software can be incompatible, and it might lead to an alternate line of thinking.
Amenx: Memtest is a memory test and it also will test cpu's own memory (as far as I recall). In any case in 3.5v it only runs 1 thread and it will pass a...
So I was having alot of issues with BF3, so I went to make sure everything was good (also occosionally a blue screen once roughly every 5 days). I ran memtest on cpu it would constantly fail at around 60-70% (blue screen or restart). It did this even when I tested single memory modules. So on...
Got to say I think overall you're being awfully stubborn about this. Keep in mind for a performance user with the ability to get a 120-160+ SSD (Like me), I agree that it is best to have the separate combination. If you are like my brother with every steam game known to man, then you are not...
Z68 SRT Caching, been working great for the computer I built for my dad (would not trust him to manage a partition well). Has most of the benefit of an ssd while allowing one to run a large platter.
Decided to report back a bit, and still never really got an answer to my SLI part about a performance penalty concerning dual monitors (in the sense of second monitor idling how much if any it penalizes for).
In any case the ZR24W I got came in pretty good shape (there's a slight scratch on...
Appreciate the help & I decided to go through with buying the monitor an used ZR24W, should be here in a few days :D.
However still leaves my last question concerning Dual Monitors
"Last question, with having the old monitor obviously obviously re-purposing it is always best, so making a...
Yeah the 768mb bottleneck was the thing I'm more concerned about, wasn't sure if it would play a major impact, I know when I got them the 1680x1050 was never going to be a problem, wasn't thinking straight on that part (got them new at 150-175 a piece :P).
Of course when you overclock a card...
So I've been getting the upgrade itch for awhile, and I think I'm finally ready to go through with it. Considering that I've ran through just about other reasonable upgrade, I turned to looking at my monitor. I've got an 21" 1680x1050 TN panel (07-08 model). I'm looking to upgrade to a 24"...
While I do think the OP needs a bit more practice on tactfulness, I do completely agree that it is unacceptable to be in a blackout period for 9 days. In the end all of this could have been resolved if the Business would have been a bit more polite, and used the golden rule of giving status...
Any decent case that comes with an air filter should suit your needs. Reason I state this is because a Case with a dust filter implies that it is a "positive" pressure air flow case verse a "negative" pressure airflow. What this means is that dust should only come through the intake(s) with...
I'm curious johny2314, didn't you ask this question back in april. I'm guessing you never got around to building it. Although it's kind of funny it's gone from a 1k pc - some crazy monster tri-sli gtx580 with water cooling/lights etc, to various other forms. Hopefully this time around the...
Capacitors are actually designed to hold a charge for years, if nothing is depleting it. That's why they warn you never open up old crt's (unless you know what you are doing) etc even months after you last plugged it up.
I guess that's good to know, though it's a bit odd how that changed. I know there was a discussion on the forums some time ago about it & it was pretty much agreed by everyone that leaving them sit wasn't good for a power supply. However if that's the case that I can store it it's good to...
I was planning on buying a new power supply because I seen a really good deal on one that I've had my eye on. However I was wondering if I just left it sitting around for 6 months- 1 year+ (Ivybridge) would there be any significant degradation on it.
I figure if so I could still justify...
Undervolting is exactly that running the cpu on voltages lower than its default. It is used for one of three purposed generally. One is in order to achieve the same performance at a lower voltage. Two is to lower the voltage in order to reduce the amount of electricity required to run the...
Could just be you have a couple of retarded sensors (the sensors are designed more to check for TJMax, and are more accurate the closer you get to it), I have a I7 970 (OC'd 4.0) using an H50 Push-Pull, on Idles I've got cores that read anywhere from 18-34 (even when I had all power settings...
Great Rig overall DrBoss, I hate to ask you the obvious question, but are you sure your running a push pull setup and not a push push setup. If the mount & tim is good that would probably be the culprit, unless your case isn't moving air correctly (doubt it considering the fractal case is...
My suggestion honestly is use one of the custom builds that these guys give (It is Going to be some form of Sandy Bridge CPU, MB, 750-850 Watt powersupply, SLI/Xfired Video Card, etc). Proceed to buy everything from newegg (to keep it simple) after finding a case you like, then offer some...
From what I've been told and have observed it doesn't really matter what orientation you use. The only important factor that seems to be stressed is that you keep it in that position if it's going to be long term.
Jeeze seems like the matter is still pretty split on it with a slight lean toward leaving them on. I think in the end I'm going to let them spin down, but as said I only use them (about once or twice a week) when I need to add stuff to the archive, and that's usually the period where I might...
So I've recently built my own Fileserver NAS to store my files etc. However what I was trying to decide was the back and forth question of do I leave the hard drives spinning constantly or should I have them spin down. I currently have it set to 30 mins so that the main drive will stayed...
Well sad that I got seemingly duds (was hoping for crazy numbers that were stable in furmark). Got two EVGA 768 MB's OC'd to 825 MHZ and1900 MHZ memory, idle's around 37-40 and Furmark load was up there in the 80's. So while I could probably overclock it more with voltage, probably not worth...
Guess it doesn't really matter much anyway :P, seems at least one of my cards is a dud in fullmark, at 830 MHZ stock voltage it craps out within 3 mins, at 825 Core with 1900 MHZ Memory (Bumped it once I found where it dies), I get 88 Celsius at 100% load. So even if I could overclock it more...
