    4690k capped after RAM upgrade?

    Well.. this is odd. I tried setting a multiplier of 44 vs 45 and guess what - it booted up and now CPU is at 4.4Ghz. Everything eles in BIOS is stock settings, excpet for 1.25 on CPU and 1.15 on the one below that. Guess I found the golden middle, factoring RAM differences.

    4690k capped after RAM upgrade?

    No, I have all 4 sticks in - matched to A/B channel between the two sets. I am cautious of trying the higher voltage as it first of all, does not boot, and when I took the 1.5v rated sticks out they were quite warm from low load. I tried the trick of using only old/new RAM and it seemed to...

    4690k capped after RAM upgrade?

    That's what I thought, but trying it with the new RAM I was not able to boot with 1.65. I both channels are using XMP settings, but if I set both to 2133 11-11-11-27 there is no boot. Maybe I need to refresh myself with overclocking this setup again, but struggling to find any guides that are...

    4690k capped after RAM upgrade?

    Hi all, I've installed two new RAM sticks and it works, however, now my CPU is capped at 3.89Ghz (3.9Ghz I guess) no matter what I enter for multiplier in BIOS. Before it was stable at 4.5Ghz with 1.25v Of course, the RAM is mismatched, but only in voltage. Everything is as near as seems to...

    EVGA RMA support.

    That's amazing. Though maybe part of the reason such incredible RMA stories are not shared more, is that people don't wanna advertise this kind of stuff and inadvertently shooting other users' expectations sky high. Either way, congratulations.

    Z97-A sharp crackle when connecting audio out

    Hi all, just a quick one. Whenever I connect headphones or speakers the onboard sound wants to calibrate (I guess) and emits a really sharp spike of sound at full volume. It's not the best when wearing headphones. Does anyone know what it actually is and if there is a way to stop it...

    Any FPS like oldschool, without aiming with right mouse button?

    Just searched for the game, watched a gameplay video and ended up buying it! It looks intense and the exact antidote to a lot of recent titles.

    You wake up and find yourself in the last game you played; how well do you fare?

    GTA IV - I have a controller for driving and a mouse for aiming. The traffic can be annoying, but I'm a slav playing a slav and I can squat in game.

    Gaming Hardware Needs to Grow Up

    I'm not one for LEDs and don't understand the obsession of manufacturers with them lately. However, I think one assumption all non RGB LED lovers have is that it's to be used in a tasteless, pointless way just for the sake of it. Having looked through this thread, I kind of changed opinion a l...

    Permanent Bans For Cheating In The Division

    Well, I don't have to put thought into it. I liked the game a lot and there is nothing more to it. This for once was a "next gen" game that felt engaging to play and the environments and attention to detail really took it to the next level.

    Permanent Bans For Cheating In The Division

    Agree. A better way to put it would be: what they have is a fuck up on that part and it could be excused at a lower severity, but what happened is simply an oversight (unlikely) and most likely they had to focus resources on other areas of the game instead. I genuinely liked the game through...
