    Thank you Mr. troll cirial...but obviously you didn't read my post? "Ive had other odd issues with my 570 that required a full power off on cycle to come back to right myself" A comma is not a period.

    I think my 570 is on the way out.

    Glad to hear a simple restart was a quick fix for you, Ive had other odd issues with my 570 that required a full power off on cycle to come back to right myself. I was playing MW3 (I know Im lame dont bother saying so) and the card refused to clock up past the 2d core clock of 401 and...

    GTX 570 overclocking: Am I going to see a FPS difference?

    I have a reference Sparkle 570 and with the voltage turned up to a modest 1.025 it seems really stable at 885/1940 not spectacular on the memory side I know but it seems to make a difference to me. I've seen a few games that it makes a difference between being very playable at 4x msaa vs. 8x...

    Bärsärkar-gång: SFF Low Power Water Cooled

    Very very nice progress, I love the retention nuts and that process is a heck of a lot easier than casting, Ill have to keep it in mind if I ever want to do multiples of parts in brass. Always happy to help, I had a feeling the heat was the major factor you were fighting and clearly you've...

    Crysis 2 DX11 Tessellation & High-Res Texture Pack @ [H]

    While I have yet to bother playing Crysis 2 after the patch I must say it went very smoothly for my hard copy version. Let the game update itself, downloaded and installed the patches, and the game starts so I guess my "gift" is unwrapped. But it still feels like I got an itchy sweater from my...

    Official ASUS P8P67 Series Overclocking Guide and Information

    So, the other night I decided its time to see what my new i5 2500k and P8P67 Pro with a Scythe Mugen 2 on top were capable of, it was bound to happen. After reading this wonderful post figured I'd try the extreme auto in the Aisuit and ill be danged if it didn't come out at 50x 103 my only issue...

    Options options, time for a new system

    Thanks for the quick and thorough response Danny Bui. Ive been weary about the psu issue and planned on staying away from crossfire or overclocking until it was replaced but you affirmed that fear. The Radeon 5770 triggered this whole thing, it wouldnt play nice with my now antique nForce4...

    Options options, time for a new system

    Its come time to retire the old 3800+ and 7600GT and Ive come to an interesting impasse. 1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? Gaming mainly, some photo and video editing, also audio editing in the future. 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping...
