So I was fiddling around in OCing my gigagbyte gtx 670 oc and Im not sure if Im missing a function or I forgot to enable anything but my power target max is 112% (seems awfully low).
Also as I am fiddling with the gpu clock offset during the Heaven benchmark I would crash with the...
So Im on Msi afterburner now and my core clock is showing max +0. What is a decent number to start with on the Core clock and Memory clock and go from there? Also on my ati 5850 I would be able to see the actual core and memory clocks but this one is just + #
Hey, so Im a new owner of the gigabyte 670 OC and its been a long while since I had an Nvidia card. Someone care to tell me which program they use to OC and test for artifacts or does everyone just use their proprietary cd that came with their card?
So I feel like its finally time to upgrade since the gtx 660ti is out and I was pretty much waiting for the market to shape out with this release.
I play pretty much every game at 1920x1080 and I enjoy playing at high/max settings with AA. Im sort of debating between the 2 cards due to the...
Yup but was getting really irked by the ATI drivers and with this upcoming release of Gtx 670 got me thinking again thats why.
@Destiny: You make some great points, cheers
Hm I suppose this is in the want category. My monitor resolution is in my original post. Games are most likely going to be D3 till I die, lol.
Yup guess its best to wait until the hoopla settles down a bit. Thanks everyone for their input, the community here always helps put things into...
Off the top of my head Im using i5 2500k, Asrock extreme 4, 8gb memory. If there is another important factor Im missing just let me know.
Couldn't edit my original post for some reason...
$100 bucks isn't exactly a bit more lol. Used gtx 580 for 300 and new gtx 670 for 400
Yeah well its unfortunate but the market/demand sets the price. I got no choice to believe that 580 used for 300 is "good"
All in all I think the most logical solution is to wait and see if and when the...
I was seriously contemplating doing xfire for a while but it doesn't really help my original issue of disliking ATI drivers so yeah, don't think I want to go that route. Im also tired of tweaking games around to make xfire optimized. Thanks for the suggestion though
Off the top of my head Im using i5 2500k, Asrock extreme 4, 8gb memory. If there is another important factor Im missing just let me know. O I also play a slew of games none of which is BF3. Probably just playing D3 for a while
I think you guys might be right. I could bump it a bit and let it...
So Im currently using my xfx 5850 at 1920x1080. I feel the urge to upgrade again because 1)Im getting tired of ati drivers 2)I feel like the card is dating itself.
Could I please get some recommendations in the $250-350 range for an NVIDIA video card. Also are there people out there that...
Generally if I can spend ~100 to get a fps increase ~50% Im usually pretty happy. With that being said if you already gone this route and recommend my current setup, I would be more inclined to do so since you already have experience in this. Its just seeing how I bought a board with the...
Just read the new ati 11.11b drivers, support for xfire skyrim seems to be only for the 6000 series. "5000 series support will be released soon," lol :)
Nvm. Must've not done a good search. I see it selling used for 138 at amazon.
Yeah I am getting pretty fed up and new games not being optimized for CF and honestly I only play new games and hardly go back to older ones when the CAP is released later. Honestly the biggest sway is the money...
So Im currently running ati 5850 on my Asrock Extreme 4. Been looking to upgrade my vid card since games like Batman and Skyrim are out and the games running as smoothly as I would like.
I either have the option on buying another 5850 used for $180 or buying a new ati 6950 (2 gb) for ~$200...
So I have 2x4gb Ripjaws 9-9-9-24 2N (1600mhz, G.SKILL Ripjaws F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL) and its in the same color slots on my mobo (Extreme 4). I would assume Cpuz should read dual channel but its reading as single. Can someone explain or am I missing a setting Im suppose to enable? I have all the...
Yes the fans appear to be spinning. Sometimes there is no error code and sometimes I get a 60. Someone suggested it might've been PSU on another forum but I dont think that explains why a clear CMOS fixes the boot issue.
If it helps any I am using CM silent pro 600 w PSU.
Alright update, Im using STOCK settings w no OC and after shutting down it wont boot into windows without a cmos reset. Does anyone know whats going on?
Alright so I have i5-2500k, extreme 4, and the CM hyper 212 plus in a push/pull config. I do have the latest 1.70 bios. I tried OCing w a multi of 48x and I ran intelburn test 3 runs on max. with 8 threads and it passes just fine. Issue is when I turn off the computer and try to turn it back on...
Recently purchased a "SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive" but I cant see to get my Extreme 4 to locate it. I tried both AHCI and IDE mode but nothing seems to show up. Am I missing something or is this a dud?
Thanks
If it helps any I tried plugging it into my peripheral fan and it wasn't spinning either. So both fans, 1 on the psu and the 1 peripheral isn't working. Still think I should wait for my other parts?
Hey so I just bought a COOLER MASTER Silent Pro M600 RS-600-AMBA-D3 600W ATX12V V2.3 SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Bronze Certified Modular PSU (dont think it really matters). I tried to start it up to see if it was working. I plugged it in and the fan isn't spinning. The other parts of...
So Im not a computer expert or anything but I wanted to know with the following:
will my xfx 5850 be bottlenecked by my current processor? If so, how much of a hit will I be taking? (if that can be quantified).
So I read through multiple forums and followed directions. I changed the cfg file value to 1 on both: UnlockVoltageControl, UnlockVoltageMonitoring, and EnableUnofficialOverclocking. I still cannot get the core voltage slider to budge.
I have a XFX 5850 along the way and I was worried if...
The Panasonic is out of my price range. I might consider looking into other plasmas though. I think Ill get that Spectre from costco and just return it at a later time when prices drop further later on in the year.
