    1366 x58 Xeon Enthusiast overclocks club

    I'm running a GTX 2080 with a Xeon 5650 on water. 4.4ghz 24/7. I game in 4k for the most part and I can say that there is no bottleneck. In fact most games consume ~20% of all cores under load (far cry 5 max settings). Which other games are you curious about, I'll try them.

    RAID Array problems

    Hi all Reviving this thread from the dead. I am presently using a 2310 with 4x 3tb drives in raid 5. This controller has worked really well for me for years. OCE allowed me to upgrade my array from 4x 1.5tb drives one at a time to 3tb drives. I am on an x58 Sabertooth board (tylersburg...

    Advice on EX58-UP4P replacement.

    Hey everyone. My faithful gigabyte x58 ud4p crapped out on me the other day. I deconstructed my loop in my 800d. Mounted the oem heatsinks and couldn't get it to boot for me on a testbench. Its a gonner. Ive applied for an RMA with gigabyte to see if they have something comparable in their...

    AMD am2+ 780g X6 Thuban quesion/issue

    Great suggestions, guys. I passed them along to my friend and he might try them. There's probably marginal performance difference between 667 with tighter timings that the board is forcing and 800 at stock timings.

    You Should Wait Before Buying A 4K TV

    How is everyone missing that netflix is pushing a compressed codec of sorts for 4k house of cards on a 25mbps stream? That kind of bandwidth is reasonable to me. The video quality destroys any 1080p bd content. Im not discrediting the fact that tech improves as time progresses but 4k is here...

    You Should Wait Before Buying A 4K TV

    Just like to chime in here guys. Seems to be much misinformation going on. I just picked up a 55'' 4K samsung set and i got it for about $1200 from costco. It does do 4k at 60hz 4:4:4 and it looks apesh*t. It does support hdmi 2.0 on all 4 of its imputs and is getting along swimmingly...

    Best six core cpu for Gigabyte AM2+ board?
