I just wanted to concur with the good results of delidding a 7700K. I did much the same as the author. Before delidding, my 7700K would quickly thermal throttle after reaching 100C during Prime95 clocked at 4.9 GHz with a +.050 voltage offset. After delidding, I initially used Thermal Grizzly...
I felt a bit guilty too purchasing one (the i5 256 GB model no graphics). But it was for my wife and it honestly met her needs perfectly. Her current laptop is 4 years old. She really only needs something that is small, with a good keyboard and great screen and good battery life. Plus I have...
I love my Surface Pro 3 that I have had for a few months. I have the 256GB/8GB i5 model and have no issues with its performance. I was curious about its 3D performance and used 3DMark to test. Its performance was quite poor indoors. Winter has come early to Michigan and ran the same tests...
It's been a while since I purchased some up to date hardware (so I'm again excited), but I can't imagine I'll have any buyers remorse upgrading from my 560 Ti to the 970.
I hopefully have fixed the problem. There were actually a few BIOS revisions available for her laptop and two of them were said to fix issues with SATA detection and resume from sleep. So maybe for once in my life I found a BIOS issue with a revision that actually fixes my problem.
I recently moved my Intel 520 240GB SSD to my wife's laptop. I used the Intel software to copy the image from her 320GB drive to the new SSD. Everything worked great and the system seemed to be working fine.
She immediately started getting blue screens and the system would not start up...
To answer any unanswered questions here--I was succussful in the upgrade. The supplied Intel Data Migaration software is more than sufficient. It can decrease and allows manual resizing of various source partitions. It worked well. The only hiccup was a Bootmgr missing error on initial...
I looked through the listing of topics on that page twice and couldn't find a link to address my specific question--can you provide a more direct link?
I downloaded the Intel software and read through the manual (if you can believe that) and no where does it say if it will allow or will not allow the sources partition to be shrunk to fit the smaller SSD. Does anyone have experience with the software and doing this? I would prefer to use the...
That's a good thought, I have purchased a few retail intel SSDs before but never bothered to load the included CD. Does anyone else have experience using the intel software and will it allow a partition to be shrunk (keeping in mind that the total data size on the source drive is less than the...
Well, since I didn't know what else to purchase my dad for Christmas and I had no interest in going to a mall to look for a nice shirt, I purchased a 120GB intel SSD to upgrade their computer which I put together for them a few years ago. They currently have I believe a ~500 GB hard disk with a...
Thanks, Wirednuts--I picked a Sperry unit at Home Depot after work for $40 and it worked great. Of course the line was the last one down the punchboard, so I would have wound up taking every single cable out until I got to it.
I need to add a wireless AP to the upstairs in our home and am planning on repurposing the existing cat 5 cable that is pulled to all of our phone jacks. My problem is that at the punch board in the basement none of the cables are labeled. I don't want to have to pull each one off in...
My 3770K reports as an (ES) in coretemp also. I had assumed this was just an error in the program as the chip is recently released (I also use rc3). Do others with a 3770K have coretemp report something different?
I had noticed similar things with LLC. My question regarding LLC is that the voltage will ramp up as the CPU ups its multiplier (from 1600 MHz to 4300) when it is loaded anyways--so LLC seems somewhat redundant. And, I was able to get a better OC with it "off" as my temps were too high with...
Quick question, I just checked my cpu pll voltage and noticed that with the auto setting, it is set at 1.80V and the sensor reads as such--where as CMDDRDREDD set his to 1.7125. What is the typical default?
Temps are OK. Will get just under 90C under maximum stress with Linpack. I have a COOLER MASTER GeminII S524 120mm heatsink. This is about the tallest HSF that will fit in my mATX case (I had an old TRUE in my old system).
I have not messed with cpu pll overwiltage yet, but will try it...
I also have a 3770K and have been stuck around 4.3 (have it set to 43*100.5 to be exact). This is on an Asus Gene V with +.055 voltage offset(LLC off). 4.4 is borderline stable and 4.5 is a no go.
Well, I installed a new power supply (a Silencer 600W model) into the system and it is perfectly stable even with torture testing the PSU with OCCT, which previously had restarted the system within 10-15 minutes. So it was the power supply that must have been overheating. Too bad, it was a...
The FSP is a decent unit, about a $100 when I purchased it 3-4 years ago.
My MB temps are around 40C and I have the fans set to max on the Asus Gene V when I was testing and it still restarted. The GPU temps get up near 85-90 C and the fan speed gets up to about 60-70%. The GPU is at stock...
So I thought had my new 3770K system stable but started getting predicatable complete system restarts when I started playing some games. I can play May Payne 3 for 30-90 minutes and would randomly getting a quick complete system restart. I was able to reproduce the restart with OCCT stressing...
So I am putting together a new Ivy Bridge 3770K build. I have a Asus Gene V mATX board and am planning on 16GB of memory (I know 16GB in't altogether necessary right now, but I plan to keep this build for ~4 years like my last system and want the same type of memory).
So my main decision is...
I was just checking prices for Intel SSDs and noticed that the retail 240 GB Intel Cherryville drive was listed at $359? I checked a few days ago and it was well over $500. Did the price on these just go down or is this some sort of pricing error?
Just picked up the 4S through Verizon with no problems. Was a little disappointed the 4S wasn't more but am excited - I finally broke down and bought a smart phone.
OK--I figured it out. In the router's log, the MAC address of the printer was being denied access to the network. I had MAC address filtering turned on (I thought it only applied to wireless devices). Turned it off and the wireless laptop found the printer.
I still am not quite sure how...
So the laptop is set to DHCP and is currently assigned 192.168.0.199, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, Gateway 192.168.0.1. Printer: static IP 192.168.0.160, subnet 255.255.255.0, Gateway 192.168.0.1.
I was able to ping the printer with the wired computer.
Ping does not respond with the...
That is what I am doing for the time being. My goal for the network printer however was to have the printer available even if my desktop machine is off.
Just plugged it into the network and installed the printer and it immediately found and installed the printer. Printed a test page and it worked.
Then pulled the network cable and initialized the wireless connection. The print job fails and the Samsung printer driver says the Port is not...
The laptop only uses Windows Firewall and I disabled that. The router of course uses NAT. I installed the printer's software and driver on my wired machine. I could continue the install of the printer's software on the laptop, but it advises against it as it does not detect the printer during...
So it's been quite a while since I've been on Anandtech but have run into a problem I can't solve.
I recently purchased a Samsung 3312ND laser printer and plugged it into my wired network. The printer is wired into a DLink655 wireless router. I initially used DHCP but have subsequetly set...
I am looking for an easy way to take advantage of the secure digital reader on my netbook but have a sony camera that of course uses a memory stick. I thought I could find an adapter into which the memory stick could be placed and then inserted as an SD card in the reader. But, I haven't been...
Here is my situation and question as to what I am able to deduct from my income. I purchased a condo in 6/2004 for $115000 and used it as my sole residence until I moved out of the condo in May of 2008 to my new wife's home and put the condo for sale. The condo of course didn't sell, so I...
