    mATX AM3+ Motherboard with USB 3.0 and Sata 6Gb/s?

    Try the Gigabyte 880G-UD2H - I used to use it with a 1055T and it is a) cheap and b) has all the features you mention.

    Quiet AMx cooler for v351

    Max height for cpu cooler in the v-351 is around 112-115mm. No idea about AMx though, I'm afraid to say. I'm running a Noctua Nhu9b-se on my 1055t at 3.8ghz with decent results. Does AMx support the same mounting system as am2+/am3?

    I just set up SLI - 2 9800gtx+ on EVGA X758 - dropped performance

    Regarding your drivers - Go to Nvidia's website, to the driver download section, then select the option labelled "beta drivers" or similar, the 260 series should be found in there and, as previously mentioned, they are pretty much rock solid and will be best for your situation. Regarding...

    Single Hex + GPU folders - I need your help

    Don't want to jack the thread but I do have some information that might be relevant. My Gtx 480 has consistently produced 16-17k ppd since I got it over a month ago (850/2050 for folding). Also running the smp2 client on my 1055t. It's a hex, but obviously not doing anything near what you...

    Card dead? Or another problem? Help needed please!

    Card still under warranty? Because there's a 90% chance it's busted. It happens. But - to exclude that unfortunate probability: 1- Update to the latest drivers. 2- Ensure your card's heatsink/fan isn't clogged with dust. Check temps and adjust fan speed if necessary (the 4850s run hot but...

    Please post here if your motheboard died with a Phenom II X6

    By way of an update, I ended up blowing my first Gigabyte 880g ud2h with a 1055t. It's a cheap little 4+1 phase with no heatsinks on the mosfets but I was still a little surprised. Was doing ~3.8ghz at around the 1.4v mark. This system folds whenever it's not being used to game so it's under...

    Please post here if your motheboard died with a Phenom II X6

    Thought I'd way in on this issue with my experience so far. Running a 1055tt at 3.85ghz on a cheap, cheap Gigabyte ud2h matx board. It's an 880G chipset I believe. This board has no heatsinks on the mosfets and 2x 4 pin 12v connectors. Have been running it at this speed, with around...

    i7 air coolers for v351?

    I faced the same dilemma just a little while ago, that is, choice between the nh-u12p and nh-u9b. I discounted the H50 (though i loved the idea) since when you mount the rad at the front it is going to be starved for airflow, as the vents at the bottom and front of the case aren't exactly...

    SMP2 on i7 920 help request

    Hi Guys, Been having some trouble with my smp2 setup over the last week. Running an i7 920 at 3.6ghz, 6gb, win 7 x64, gtx 280. The other day I noticed in hfm that ppd on the smp client was reported as 700. Didn't make much sense as cpu load was at 100%. Thought it was a problem with hfm...

    Please help - dfi t3h6 i7 problem

    Gskills are rated at 1.5v - I've tried them everywhere between this and 1.65. Vtt I've kept in line with vid, everywhere between 1.2 and 1.35v. I've never had such problems after having a bios reset before...

    Please help - dfi t3h6 i7 problem

    Hi guys, and thanks again for the advice. I've run chkdsk and memtest. Memory passes everytime, as does the hd. Last night I disabled everything in the bios that could be causing trouble - onboard lan/audio/ide, eist, turboboost, ht. Tried high voltage, low voltage, auto, everything. No...

    Please help - dfi t3h6 i7 problem

    Thanks for the clarification re ahci/ide. Superflower is actually the oem for a number of reputable psu companies. I did my research as I was dubious at first. It was not a cheap supply and has 60a on the 12v rails. I double checked with a tt 550w and got same error. At this stage I think...

    LIAN LI PC-V350 !!!

    I ended up getting the noctua nhu9b-se as the h50 wasn't in stock where I live (brisbane, au). I'm aiming for a 3.8-4ghz oc at around 1.3v loading no more than 85 degrees c. Didn't have too much trouble dremelling out the optical bay for the psu cables, and some superglue will solve the...
