'm just getting into water cooling and I don't want "performance" ram, I just want ram that won't limit my overclocking of the CPU. I'll happily under clock ram if need be. BUT, can my CPU overclock be limited by my RAM? Thanks, JOe K.

I guess I'm asking does the card natively run in single GPU mode according to the driver OR does the card run in SLI (according to the driver) but just consolidated on one card

So if I were to purchase a dual GPU, single card card, in the 3d settings for the driver is it set to single GPU? Thanks, JOe K.

I am running MPC-HC (media player) and have the manage 3d settings for that exe as Single GPU. However, the only time I see the actual performance gains is to literally disable SLI globally. It seems as though disabling it on the application level is not working. I can tell because I get...

I was just at a Gameworks arcade and they had this cool monster truck game where all the trucks were highly animated/exaggerated and had guns. Are there any PC games that are like a tuned up Mario Kart? Not a big fan of general racing games, add a few weapons and I'm golden. Thanks, JOe K.

I use steam big picture mode and sit 8ft back from my 46" LED.

Is there a difference between 720p and 1080p during 10ft mode (i.e. I'm sitting 8ft away from my machine)? I'm playing far cry 3 and I keep switching back and forth and I can't see the difference but maybe its not switching?

can I turn power management back on after the overclock is finalized?

I'm using the overlay from Precision

power offset in precision X software? If that, maxed out to 112% and 1150mv. Otherwise, max I can achieve is 1.175 (I think)

The max temp was on average 57 and didn't get above 60. I have the Gigabyte card with 3 fans.

The problem happened during testing: I have vSync turned off. I'm using Unigine Heaven so it's using everything it can.

It doesn't crash. It just levels off there. If at 1110MHz, I'll put +92 and it goes up to 1202MHz, between +93 and +125 it's still at 1202MHz.

I have a Gigabyte GTX 670. When using Precision X to overclock the max I can get is 1202. It's stock boost is 1100MHz. Is there a way I can go above 1202? If I put the core offset at +92 or +125 it still only goes to 1202MHz. I have the voltage settings maxed out (1.175) Any idea why it...

That’s a great point. I’ll have to weigh the costs. With a new GPU, I may need a new case and PSU. With a new setup I’ll need a new Mobo, Cpu and fan. The second option is more scalable. I’ll probably roll that way. Thanks for helping!
