    Thumbs up for Galaxy!

    Just wanted to publicly thank the Galaxy representative on this board for awesome customer service. I bought a Galaxy GTX 460 1GB GC back in July, but didn't have the chance to use it till late August. I noticed that it started downclocking itself to 405mhz if I gamed for a while, and only a...

    Setting up RAID - Adding new HDD

    Hey all, I currently have two WD 400GB HDDs that I want to put into RAID 0, but because I know it increases the probability of failure I'm also planning on adding a third 1TB HDD to store backups made with Acronis True Image 2010. The two 400GB HDDs have data on them (total is less than 400GB)...

    Cooler Master R4 Fan RPMs

    Well that's no good...I'll keep looking. Did it perform as it was rated before things went south?

    Cooler Master R4 Fan RPMs

    Ah, if I had known that about a month ago I would be at Micro Center in a heartbeat. I just moved further away from it though. I'll see what prices are like for shipping. Well, I was hoping to move a bit more air in the case (it's a 1st revision P180, so cable management is a bit of a...

    Cooler Master R4 Fan RPMs

    Hey everyone, I've been looking at this fan (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103063) as a case fan. According to Cooler Master the fans move 70CFM at "stock speed," and I'd need a fan controller to get it up to 90CFM. Is that only if I plug in the fans with the 3-pin...

    Performance gain from overclocking 4850 RAM?

    It's probably not worth it since I'm running games like Mirror's Edge, L4D, TF2 at 1680x1050, but I just have the OC bug :)

    Performance gain from overclocking 4850 RAM?

    Hm, okay. I seem to be hitting a wall around 1050mhz (2100 effective). I may look into the modded BIOS and see, not really keen on trying the pencil mod.

    Performance gain from overclocking 4850 RAM?

    Just wondering what kind of performance boost there is to be seen from overclocking the VRAM on a HD4850. It seems mine won't overclock too much, and I'm wondering if I'm missing out on anything significant. Anyone have any idea if it's that significant a boost?

    ATITool artifact detection: inconsistency?

    Hm, so I'm bringing this thread back up again because I've just noticed something with ATITool. I tried scanning for artifacts on it again, but this time using the old method (that checkbox in settings), and I'm now running almost 50 minutes without it detecting any artifacts. Maybe there's...

    ATITool artifact detection: inconsistency?

    Will do, thanks! :)

    ATITool artifact detection: inconsistency?

    Yup, no hiccups at all, temps on the card maxing out below 60C, which should be fine for it I think.

    ATITool artifact detection: inconsistency?

    Well, I played Crysis for 40 minutes or so, ran the benchmark, ran 3DMark06, and played some TF2 without any problems. Does that suggest that it's stable enough?

    ATITool artifact detection: inconsistency?

    Hm, guess it does sound like ATITool is getting a bit outdated. What would be the best way to test stability aside from ATITool then? Would just playing something graphics-intensive like Crysis be a good way to test? Thanks!
