2FA? Heatware? I just hit 60yrs old. Some of us old geezers don't keep up :) My last build was in 2019. I was planning a new build, and have a few SSDs I never used. With prices where they are, I'm not going to replace my desktop.

Samsung 990 EVO Plus 4TB — an NVMe M.2 SSD Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB — model MZ-V7S500B/AM an NVMe M.2 SSD Sabrent Rocket 256GB — model SB-ROCKET-256, NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 SSD All for $695, prefer FTF in Nashua, NH. Will ship for $15 insured.

I would have purchased the 1100 for a little better OC maybe. But my 1090 is stable at 1.42 V and 3.7ghz. Any more, and I have to jack up the volts which is kinda silly for 24/7. I would gain 300mhz at 1.52 volts for 4ghz. No thanks.

Or is 4 the max?

I think in 12 months this chip will start to show its true potential ;)

NO............. but the 1090 is a sweet ass chip though brother ;)

Seriously, some of you guys need to get a life. :rolleyes: What did you think BD was going to 8ghz on air or something? Bulldozer is 32mm and 2500K is 32mm. Both the same "generation" chip. AMD operates on a fraction of Intel R&D. We buy AMD because they are not intel, they are the...

back off the acid for a few days, report back with any improvement next week ;)

was wondering which AMD utility allows control of fan speed? Like CPU, ect...

warning, Battlefield BC2 crashes all the time with my 6870

:rolleyes: You understand the only reason we have Sandy Bridge in 2011 is the competition AMD brings to the market? Seriously, the best today might be Core Duos priced $500 per chip without competition in the market. Supporting AMD brings better products, faster and cheaper to the market...

They are socket FM1 :eek:

No way, the AMD chip IMO would be an upgrade when overclocked properly.

that looks more like it froze than boiled. Boiling water takes 200 degrees.

1090t IS AWESOME; I'm at 3.8Ghz @ 1.425 volts and less than 41 C. why run faster? over 4ghz is OK with 1.5 volts and less than 45 C. See board below. Plus, Asus sends rebates FAST
