Is an i7-7700 underclocked to 2.9GHz the same as an i7-7700T ?

So my BIL bought a Gigabyte Aorus Gaming 7 motherboard ($400!!) because it advertised 3X M.2 RAID. His plan was to buy 3 512gb Samsung 960 Pro nvme sticks and RAID0 them as a boot drive. I have something similar working great on my own Gigabyte Z170X Gaming 5 motherboard (using 2x Plextor...

Looking to upgrade my current 2012 PC hardware. My OC on the computer burnt out pins on the CPU (still works though!), but I cannot OC anymore. Basically, my 3570K is a 3570; multiplier tops out to 38 in BIOS, but never goes above 3.6 GHz anyways. Looking for general recommendations for the...

The response given last month was very discouraging, which suggests that Intel will not be making any changes to their thermal contact process or materials: Re: Thermal sensor issue i7-7700k? Ronald_Intel May 2, 2017 7:30 AM (in response to BC93Key) Hello Everyone, We appreciate the feedback...

Hello everybody! This is my first post in this community. Lately, I've noticed that while I was playing some games (Smite, Paladins, Guild Wars 2, Ark) my CPU temperature usually reaches temperatures about 80-85ºC and I'm worried about it. Here are the specs: OS: Windows 7 Home Basic 64-bit...

Hi All! I did a new build about a month ago and I have noticed some unusually high temperatures with my 7700K. I originally had a Hyper 212 cooler on my build, but after seeing the temps I decided that maybe it wasn't cutting it so I switched to a Corsair Hydro H80i v2. However the temps are...

Hello, Please we have tablets using Intel SR1UB as CPU - Motherboard type :RU P&Q - 1623 Px5510D (CM-494V-o) we noticed we have two types of motherboards though one with A tagged on it & the other with nothing on it. the one with A is freezing sometimes..+ we have some charging issues, does any...

As i continue on the search for parts for my first PC build, I am stuck on a motherboard. I'm using a Intel Core i5 6600k. I'd want to overclock this system, so I've limited it down to some motherboard types Z motherboards ATX boards LGA 1151 DDR4 $150 USD(or a little over) or less (Sorry if...

I used Intel Driver update utility to try to update my drivers, but I get an error saying my system doesn't meet the minimum requirements and is unsupported but clearly is supported. I tried installing the zip and .exe version on the Intel driver website and I got the same error.

I've recently been following all the historical adulation and love for Xeon CPUs that could directly fit consumer boards (LGA 1366 or 2011) or the more recent ones that could easily overclock via BLCK (LGA 1151 on C232 chipsets), especially the E3 series of quad-code hyperthreading CPUs. From...

This computer's on the fritz, and it feels fairly long in the tooth, so it's time for an upgrade. Trouble is, I'm looking to have the full 64GB of RAM supported by Skylake, but 2x16GB to begin with. Was told by AsRock that Z170 can't run RAM at it's full rated speed, when using all four...

Riding on the back of my previous thread, where users ran an old instancing demo to investigate AMD's draw call performance, I'm extremely curious as to where Ryzen falls in a "modern" game; lots of draw calls, lots of background processing, and huge draw distances. The reason why, is that all...

The Kaby Lake i5 7500 has base clock of 3.4 GHz and maximum Boost Clock of 3.8 GHz : I'm assuming the 3.8 GHz is for a single core : What is the max all-core boost for the i5 7500 ? I cant seem to find this information anywhere...

Many have expressed amazement on just how AMD was able to catch up to Intel with Ryzen, especially with the 1800X, in the computing and productivity sectors. However, from a purely gamer's perspective, it is almost impossible to miss the fact that 1800X trails Intel's 7700K slightly to...

Hello! I have a problem running UT2004 on my Dell Inspiron 7559 laptop. It works in OpenGL mode, but certain things are not possible there, so that's only a last solution. The problem is that when the renderer is D3D 8, the game only runs on the integrated Intel 530, even when it is instructed...

Hello Everyone, I know Ryzen is sucking out most of the oxygen in the room regarding the anticipation and "truer" competition in the CPU market. I've a few questions I'd like to put forth to those in the latest know how about Intel's potential first opportunity to respond to Ryzen - CoffeeLake...

I have a new Skull Canyon NUC and my computer states I have 8gb ram when I have 16 installed (2x8). what trouble shooting steps can I take? Thanks!

(Part 2 - Much more appropriate settings!) Before Intel released their Core 2 architecture, their CPUs had the same level of draw call performance as their AMD performance equivalents. Trouble is, Core 2 was several times (>3x) better at handling draw calls then it's predecessors, as well as...

Hi Guys, so all of a sudden my Intel DH55TC motherboard just won't turn ON :-( I have performed all the procedures mentioned in various walkthroughs and troubleshooting but none of it helped. On powering the cpu the motherboard's green light is ON but the power button isn't making it start up. I...

I just set up a new RST RAID 10 array comprised of 3x HGST Ultrastar 7k4000 4TB drives and 1x WD Green 4TB drive. I plan on swapping the WD green out, but I was sent a bad drive so it'll do for now. So, the problem is that I created the array and initialized it. I started copying about 2TB of...

hey all, I a putting my new rig together and I am wondering if I should try to use intel rapid storage or not. I've never used it before but am certainly willing to try if there are benefits. I have the following drives that will be installed: 960 evo 500g (boot drive) 2x 850 evo 500g 840 evo...

Let's make a list of some features that are not on every board/CPU/platform, etc. — but should be. (Let's get the obvious ones out of the way: Good VRMs/MOSFETs/socket temps/copper level/PCB thickness/BIOS quality) 1) Windows/Linux software that lets someone boot to BIOS. I've used the ASUS...

Hello everybody, I recently got a laptop Dell XPS 9360, which means it is the same as the old XPS with a Kaby Lake 7500u processor. I would like to mildly undervolt the CPU/iGPU to run the laptop as quiet as possible. So far, I was only able to change voltage via software, e.g. using Intel XTU...

Hello. I've been a member here for 5 years and, in short, have been waiting several months for BF to upgrade my MOBO/GPU/CPU and would like some advice for the best deals/compatibility. Also, if you would recommend replacement of other parts (i.e. RAM) I'm all ears, as I'm not sure how long...

Isn't 7 generations of i7/i5/i3 enough? Wasn't the original intent simplicity? Now we have dozens models per generation, generations are overlapping, and determining generation by model number is just about impossible now. Anyone else think it's time to move on to something new here...

Ran across an interesting article on concerning the GPU market as a whole. The quantifying of steam data and sales data does paint a more comprehensive picture of the GPU market. nvidia is the biggest discrete gpu vendor for PC gaming while AMD is doing quite well for itself being the biggest...

Hi, I've recently decided to embark on a quest to build my first gaming pc. This being said, don't think I don't my way around one; I've done quite a bit of research. As it a starter build I've been wondering whether these are good specs to go with, and if I can get more bang for my buck. Here...

Intel processors with Iris Pro Graphics (P)580 with 65-W TDP: Core i5-6585R, 6685R, i7-6785R, Xeon E3-1585 v5. Iris Pro is also available in 35 and 45-W products, but my experience with Core i7-4710HQ taught me simultaneously using the CPU and GPU will exceed TDP rating and throttle the...

This was talked about by a lot of tech sites in January but I'm wondering if anyone has heard anything since. Rumor has it that only deep pockets customers like the NSA will have access. Is this a good idea? It seems really odd to restrict the sale of CPUs to domestic consumers and only sell...

I guess AMD chose to put AVX-512 and such on the back burner in favor of this. A smart move? So, we have government that gets upset when e-mail isn't private and controlled for it and enterprise (business and government) that gets upset when its data isn't private and controlled. As for the...
