The h100 has a pump speed wire in black (on the same cable as the sata power connector but has a fan header instead). Connect that to a fan port on your motherboard and monitor its speed in BIOS. It should be around 2200-2300 rpm. Can also monitor with corsair link in windows if u have that...
I believe this is due to longer upgrade cycles for virtually all PCs besides gaming systems. The reason for the longer upgrade cycle is the multi-core revolution 6 years ago coupled with no new demanding must-have software releases. Most PCs are used for the same applications they were 4 years...
Is there any scenario where a Titan can actually be a better pick than a 780 Ti for a gaming PC?
The only scenario I can imagine where the 6GB memory might have an advantage over the 3GB in the Gtx 780 Ti is with ultra HD 4k resolutions or Nvidia 3D surround. But a single Titan doesn't have...
Anyone have personal experience with these or can link to a review? They've been available for months now and I've been frustrated by a lack of comparison data to other popular CLCs like Corsair 100 etc.
Out of curiosity, what causes the pins to bend like this. Is it accidentally hitting them with the corner of the CPU during installation? Or is it somehow possible for them to bend the wrong way just from installing a CPU regularly. Should be impossible to damage after installation from...
4-5 days is ridiculous. If the memory is bad enough to cause intermittent BSODs then it should pick up in couple hours on regular memtest86+. Or just run the HCI memtest overnight. Just because it takes 4-5 days to complete doesn't mean you need to let it complete to be reasonably certain your...
Maybe i'm in the minority here but I really don't see what all the fuss is about 4k monitors. Now TVS I understand because they are massive and it allows shorter viewing distances but monitors already look great at existing 1080p/1440/1600 and are practically at limit of the human retinas...
I don't know about you guys but one of the systems I have with just 8GB of memory struggles with battlefield 4 everytime with firefox open in the background (which is every time due to battlelog being required to launch the game). Talking mega stuttering and freezes until or unless I shutdown...
I would normally recommend the Asus Gryphon z87 as it has a 5yr warranty unlike most mobos which is just 3 years. Is about as durable board as you can buy BUT the deal breaker in your case is SLI. Though it technically supports 2 way SLI the slots are way too close together so you're GPUs are...
Umm... ok that was unexpected. So I guess offset/adaptive overclocking is useless on 4770ks as running an AVX instruction process is kind of inevitable and 0.1vcore auto bump is just way too excessive.
Yeah makes sense as they're all on same die. I guess i figured it was a bit like raising the memory speed from 1600 to 1866, sure there's slightly extra load on the imc but its small enough that it doesn't require voltage bump for either vtt or (presumably) vcore at any given moderate OC. Now...
Awesome, thanks for the info. To clarify though (and I hate to ask this here instead of justtrying it myself but unfortunately don't have a 4770k handy atm), seeing as they're uncoupled would it therefore true that raising cache frequency would not require any bumps in vcore to retain stability...
Can you get FSP power supplies where you live? They are best price for performance PSU I've dealt with. Even better than silverstones gold, silver and bronze offerings.
Bitfenix shinobi cases if you can source them. They have vents at top which help a lot. The above case only appears to have intake at front and back but no top vent.
Lamptron are good units and I remember reading a review where they tested the 30w limit per fan cable and it was golden so wouldn't worry about the 28w. It's close, but like someone above mentioned, you won't be running them all hundred percent (presumably).
AVX instructions cause 4770k and haswell chips to spike in voltage when using adaptive vcore. This is a problem for overclocking as the voltage spike adds tremendous heat load and can render the system unstable.
My question is, besides the latest versions of prime95 and other specific cpu...
Just wondering if anyone has tested the performance impact of increasing cache/uncore speed above stock when overclocking. E.g. If a 4770k is overclocked to 4.3ghz, is it worth raising the cache speed to ~4.3ghz. And if so, how much performance gain is there actually (e.g. in single threaded...
Hi guys,
Just wondering, from a privacy perspective, are all subforums cached/accessible by google or only particular ones? For example if someone searches for 'ali1988' on google, could this post come up?
Can buy some golden chips online. Why test a dozen chips when you can get a surefire performer. I've even PM'd some people on forums that OC as a hobby to acquire their golden chips after they've finished having their fun with them.
Yes you need a K series chip and Z87. Don't even touch the Bclk or you're asking for trouble. It's multiplier only these days.
One big change is that the oc you get on the cpu is not so dependent on the motherboard anymore. This is because the memory controller is now integrated (IMC) and now...
