Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Hey guys..
Trying to wake life into an old computer and is having some trouble figuring out the next step for this issue.
System:
Q9550 3.4ghz (lousy cooler)
4x2gb ddr-2 1066 mhz
asus p5k deluxe (lastest bios 1005)
r7 260x
620W corsair HX something.
OCZ-AGILITY3 ATA Device (60gb)...
Ya iam guessing either PSU or mobo too. I have edited the main topic with the model of the motherboard.
But still hoping for more feedback and maybe a quick fix
Having trouble fixing a problem with a computer with the following setup
CPU: i5 2500k boxed
RAM 2x4gb corsair 1600CL9 (CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9)
GFX: GTX 560 TI EVGA
HDD: WDC SATA6 1TB 7200 rpm black edition
DVD sata drive
Running windows 7 64-bit with newest BIOS version.
The setup is having big...
I would buy/borrow a power meter and see how much power is being drawn from the mains. Then you get a good idea of how much your PSU is loaded instead of buying a new one.
Well if u want a quiet system i have to make sure that the gtx 285 doesn't have coil noise whining. I got a inno3d gtx285 card and when inside games i can hear this a lot :(
Ok would just update this thread to tell that i have found a solution for my problem. It seems that my problem in CS and all other games isn't the same and when i tried another harddisk than WDC green caviar drive the problems was fixed in both TF2 and COD4. So never buy such a drive for gaming ^^
Tried stock settings and doesn't work either. so tried 333*9 , 333*9.5 and 400*9 settings.
Left 4 dead works fine too so dont sure what to make of all this.
Well it didn't spike to 100% then, because i checked with proces explorer and couldn't see any major spikes. Can post a log of which process that i have running when i come home from work but its pretty much clean.
Putted in a new harddrive. Formatted it and installed winxp pro 32bit sp2.
Updated everything in windows update, installed chipset driver, installed nvidia driver and updated directx. After that i downloaded steam and downloaded CS through that.
CS still made those spikes like my computer...
Yes it does it in non-networked games got my got my cable unplugged..
Using 100Hz if i have V-sync on else i got 120hz... using a samsung RZ2233 screen.
I know this gonna be some wall of text, but i'm hoping that there's some smart people out there who is willing to help me.
I have had this problem since day 1 with my new computer. In many games it does some hiccups where the picture freeze for like 0.1 sec. This has begun to be more and more...
