    Negative performance Crossfire

    Most games and software have solid crossfire scaling but not Max Payne 3, I get more fps with one card and less microstutter with one card. my 2nd card needs way more voltage, for 1100c/1575m it needs 1.25v, also I have played alot of games including BF3. Seems like 2 cards has...

    Low fps Max Payne 3

    I'm not entirely sure what's going on... Either Max Payne 3 is a console port or something is wrong with my hardware. I don't have CPU or GPU bottleneck, maybe my motherboard has too low PCI-E bandwidth (PCI-E 2.0 x16 + x8 + x8 = 32x total). This user with 4x 7970 and 2011 CPU gets...

    Disable or decrease VTT or PLL?

    46 x 100 = 4.6Ghz. Vcore +180mv CPU VTT 1.20v (Default 1.10v), PLL Overvoltage Enabled. CLL 75% (I think have nasty Vdroop). My reported vcore is 1.392v - 1.424v during Linpack, mostly it is at 1.4v Can I decrease or disable CPU VTT or PLL Overvoltage? Trying Offset +160mv gave...

    Too low voltage harmful?

    Hello I recently started tweaking my 2500k and found out by Enabling PLL Overvoltage, LLC to 75% and putting CPU VTT to 1.20v (default was 1.10v) made me achieve above 4.4ghz speeds. I'm currently testing 46x * 100 = 4.6Ghz, Vcore Offset +210mv gives me 111GFlops (Linpack with AVX). But...

    2500k mobo and software vcore

    I recently installed a Intel 2500k and Sapphire Pure P67. Now if I put in BIOS vcore to 1.45v then start HWINFO32 for logging and start Intel Burn Test then the MAX vcore according to HWINFO32 is 1.356v. If I put BIOS vcore to 1.55v(!!) then the MAX vcore in HWINFO32 is 1.376v. If I put...

    OC 2500k help

    I own a locked Intel i5 CPU, it was wery easy to overclock I just changed multiplier and vcore :D But soon I will own a used 2500k that does 1.45v@4.9Ghz. However I have quiet PC and cooling is enough for 1.2-1.32v only mostlikely unless I crank up the fans. In IBT I will make sure to not...

    2500k and 3570k for quiet PC?

    I'm currently running a locked Intel i5 3.4Ghz it's using 1.05v vcore, it has a 500rpm 120mm fan and a Mugen 2 rev. B. But I would like to have more speed, maybe 4.0 or even 4.2Ghz. Do you guys think this is possible with unlocked CPU? I know the 3570k is slightly better clock for...

    1.056v i5 2310?!

    Triple crossfire gaming PC

    I was first considering a Phobya 1080, It's really almost same price as the Phobya 360 rad but I feel having tighty system should be nicer looking. I will be running fans at 500-600rpm for low nosie gaming: Right now the computer: Option 2 is buy 1080rad instead of 360rad:

    2nd Watercooling build log

    So after once trying watercooling I decided to do a 2nd build on same PC. I was disappointed with the placement of reservoir and the fact that the HAF 932 is so tiny and hard to work with unmodified. Also I wanted to eliminate leak damage, so now if reservoir, rad, pump leak no PC component...

    Thuban and unstable NB

    How can I get my Memory to 1600 and NB and HT Link to 2000?! I have a 1045t 95W X6 cpu. CPU Voltage is 1.400v. If I put in BIOS FSB to 237 and NB and HT to 1659 I can have Memory at 1580Mhz(it is 1600 memory). Now If I put FSB 240, then it gives black BIOS with 1659 on NB and HT. So...

    So I own 2 rads, I want to install them in my HAF 932 to watercool a 7970 and a cpu 125w. But hopefuly in future it also is able to cool 2x 7970 + cpu and fans only running 500-800rpm. The one I currently have is 240: 276 x 123 x 47mm I also own a 360 rad 396 x 120 x 45 mm My goal...

    Please help bleed!

    So I moved some parts and put return from cpu to bottom side of res for better bleeding. I have big problems, first there I can barely fill the res over the top of res as funnel has huge leak, so this is not a problem when pump is running, however when pump is turn off the water push to...

    Laing D5 wery noisy

    Before putting case together I carefuly adjusted speed to the lowest noise that could push water though system. The pump is noisy as hell, why?! The pump I cut out 3 thin bits of tygon and put as feet, I screwed in the pump to the bottom of case and put 2 thin tygon bits under screws as...

    I just built my first watercooling and I'm wery worried :(

    I just built my first watercooling and I'm wery worried :( I have put 2 picture of this build. Q1: So if I run this setup for 24-48h with pump on and no leaks I'm good to go? Q2: It seems like I have kink between res and waterpump, beside more resistance does this mean the tube will break...

    Haf 932 with cpu loop for now

    So I'm about to build my first watercooling ever and currently thinking where to place all the parts. The reason why I considered watercooling is because of noise from GPU, I find that even the best air coolers are not silent enough for GPU's. For now I'll build CPU loop and hopefuly I can...
