Hello.
I'm OCing my RAM, it has been a while since the last time I used this software and it seems today's standard test is VT3. How many cycles or hours should I run this test to consider my OC stable?
I own a 5800X3D cooled by a Dark Rock Pro 4 and I did a quick test (1 hour) and VT3...
Hello.
I already own an LG 27GL83A-B from a couple of years ago. I was considering "upgrading" to a newer IPS panel and a lot of people and reviewers are recommending the ASUS ROG XG27ACS. I compare them in rtings to get a consistent opinion and the differences don't seem that massive, besides...
I decided to buy a RX550 for now, the drivers of the 8500GT are all over the place. I will be playing some light stuff at 1080p for now. THe idea of having Big Navi is to run 1440p at high framerates (I know it's going to be a 4k capable card), by that time i'll have my 1440p @144Hz monitor...
Sorry I wasn't here to reply to all the messages... Thank you all for your replies.
I decided to wait for Big Navi. I had, until recently, an RX480 that kicked ass for like 3+ years, the 8500GT is like my backup card... I may be buy a middle ground card or a pre-owned one.
For some moments I...
Hello.
Right now I have, practicaly, no video card. I paired a 3700X/32GB RAM with a XFX 8500GT. So no gaming for me.
I was considering picking up this card, but since MSI AB can't handle the fans and there are several issues with Wattman, I was wondering if I should wait for big navi...
Hello. Finally, after a lot of effort and money, my R73700X will arrive this week. I'll use an Aorus Elite for it. The final piece is the RAM, and this has been such a headache for me... In my actual system I use 32Gb of RAM, so I'm kinda used to work with that, from browser habits to...
Hello.
I want to buy one of those SSD and put it as my system drive, so I'll go for a low capacity one, let's say 250-275GB, is there any significant difference in performance between those two? What do you recommend to get?
I already have a 500GB 850EVO and it works like a charm, but I heard...
Hello, I have some Crucial Ballistix Sport 4x8GB @ 1600 CL9 1.5v. I have been reading that some people pushed them to 2400 C11 1.6v, so right know I'm doing baby steps and I set them to 1866 C10 1.5v, I want to test its stability.
Any good software to recommend for RAM testing?
Also, what's the...
Yes, the issue still persist... I even moved the sticks to slots 3 and 4 and I got the BSOD as well, so I'm thinking it's the chipset, also, I tested all the memory with several passes of memtest86+ and there were no errors reported.
The ram is perfect, it could be a slot, but as I said, I...
Windows was reinstalled because I wasnted to deliver the machine as new as possible. The fault is completely random, as I stated, most of the time it started without issues and I didn't touch anything to fix the problem... I think the faulty part could be the VGA but I can't test it with another...
A few weeks ago I clean-installed Windows 7 Ult 64 in the following rig for a customer:
Athlon X2 7750
MSI K9N2 SLI Platinum
2GB DDR2 (I later added another 2, first it was 1x2GB+2x1GB, later 2x2GB)
200GB IDE HDD
XFX GeForce 8500 1GB
The installation went flawlessly, I think I got a BSOD long...
Do you think so? that's sound as an engineering task extremely complicated xD
Thanks for highlighting the issues about putting it on the floor, I didn't know all that.
Well... the window is closed all the time... the humidity is an issue when that happens because of the condensation.
That's what I thought regarding the plastic and the caps...
