    Since EK is going to release full WB for RX480 soon, anyone wanna speculate how far can it OC under water with this 6 pin card, if I'm not wrong EK RX480 WB is for reference card.

    BF3 patch includes 7xxx series perf improvements

    4Ghz 2500K on Operation Firestorm 64 players map. Almost fully loaded on CPU all of time, no wonder my crossfire scaling is not fully utilized because BF3 itself needs much more CPU power on 64 players map.

    BF3 patch includes 7xxx series perf improvements

    Finally no more stuttering, and the solution is Windows Update. I didn't update my Windows Update quite some time now, so I just updated all the updates available and then stuttering is gone. Blame myself for not updating too often lol. Although less stuttering, but both cards still run at...

    BF3 patch includes 7xxx series perf improvements

    Thanks for the tips, I'll try it later on. For me the stuttering is so bad and it isn't funny. During heavy battle framerate can dip down to 40fps, massive stuttering and jerky, on 64 players btw. A single 7970 is actually more playable than 2 7970 xfire, I'm currently playing at single card...

    BF3 patch includes 7xxx series perf improvements

    Because it's stuttering and slowing down during heavy battle, and the worst part is that both cards also utilize 50-60% when heavy battle, but around 80% when nothing much happens on the screen. I don't think you'll be happy when you've spent thousand for both cards and get this kinda...

    BF3 patch includes 7xxx series perf improvements

    Any idea how to fix it? I run Heaven benchmark and both cards utilized 99% all the time, but for BF3 this's different story. I also clocked both card at 1125, it'll a little better than stock, but still suck b/c both cards are still running at 50-70%.

    BF3 patch includes 7xxx series perf improvements

    I don't know why people keep saying that 4Ghz is enough for crossfire for BF3. I'm running 2 X 7970 crossfire at 4Ghz(2500k), 1080p max with only FXAA(no MSAA yet), OSD shows that I only managed to run both cards around 50%-60% most of the time, and it's stuttering and even at 60fps it feels...

    Full cover 7970 waterblock is likely the best answer for this problem.

    No full cover waterblock for reference 7970?

    http://www.chiphell.com/thread-335107-1-1.html According to nApoleon, reference 7970 cards will only be available on first batch, and there'll be no more reference 7970 cards from second batch onward, it will be replaced with non-reference 7970 cards from AIBs. If what he said is true, the...

    Future 7970 owners?

    Does 7970 come with custom board design just like 7950? I prefer reference board because I'm going to watercool it, the first waterblock for 79XX is very likely to fit in reference board, so I force to get 7970 since most 7950s will mostly go custom, while 7970 remains reference from what I...

    AMD Radeon 7000-Series 28nm (Southern Islands) | 7990 7970 7870 7770 | Discussion

    Apparently 7970 is good for watercooling. Huge overclocking headroom, 20% overclocking without touching the voltage, just imaging overvoltage plus boost performance on mature driver in future, I would say it'll be at least 40% faster than 580 eventually.

    Radeon 7970 Specifications & Release Date slide leak?

    With this underwhelming spec AMD wants us to pay $500 for 7970? I don't really trust this so-called official spec leak.

    The Witcher 2 Has Gone Gold, Releases In 3 Weeks

    What do you guys think this game is better played on KB/M or 360 controller? From what I see the gameplay, it should plays quite well on controller, and thinking to get one 360 controller for this game.

    Weird 2500k temp

    Taken from HWMonitor, still high temp at idle and stock speed. My ram is G.Skill RipJaws DDR3-1600 4GB, and ram can cause CPU temp skyrocket? First time I hear that though.

    Weird 2500k temp

    I didn't do any overclocking, I set Optimized Defaults, everything at stock, with intel stock HSF. When I enter into the UEFI bios, the temp there already rushing to 50+c, yes just boot into bios and doing nothing. I don't think other temp monitoring programs will help, the temp inside the...
