    My i5 3750k, undervolted and stable at 4GHz

    I have serial loop: res, pump, rad, Apoge HD, pump, rad, GPU res. Rads are Thermochill 120.3 to cool CPU, Thermochill 120.2 to cool GPU DDR3.2 + Petras top for above pumps. Pressure and flow are very good, so I'm certain the IHS is the problem.

    My i5 3750k, undervolted and stable at 4GHz

    Ok, I took off the TIM-MATE from Swiftech and replaced it with Antec Formula 7, which according to my googling, requires 200 hours to fully cure. Even with the fresh layor of Forumula 7, I'm seeing a drop of 2° C, and am now at 66C peak. I did, however, have go back to a -.16 offset, and...

    My i5 3750k, undervolted and stable at 4GHz

    Wow.... Thanks for posting that. I shouldn't be seeing more than 53C at 4GHz according to what I see on that chart. I'll try a few more experiments, and re-seat my block yet again. This time, I'll use a smaller dab of TIM. Thanks gents!

    My i5 3750k, undervolted and stable at 4GHz

    I'm using the TIM-MATE that came from Switech. I'm surprised you think 70C is hot. TMax is 105 on IB, is it not? Oh, and after posting this, I dropped PLL to 1.66. I'm now at 68C max. Idle is 34C average across the four cores. Core 4 is always the hottest, so perhaps that's a good indication...

    My i5 3750k, undervolted and stable at 4GHz

    A quick search of the forums leads me to believe that no one here is trying to overclock and undervolt their 3750k's. Last weekend, I upgraded my mobo, ram and processor from an old DFI/Q9550 setup. I know that my needs don't require pushing the processor to the limit, so I decided to...

    Samsung SA850 on PLS - the first review has been published (preproduction unit)

    I fear I will never find another monitor as good as my NEC 20WMGX2. I paiid $800 in 2006 I think. Worth every single dollar. Since then, my eyes have aged and I long for larger pixels and larger text without messing with the windows font sizes. I suppose reading glasses will have to do...

    Anyone else waiting for Z68 mobos?

    I have been planning a new build for the upcoming phenomina called Battlefield 3. I almost pulled the trigger on an Asus P67 board this weekend, but decided to wait for the Z68. My reason is very simple: If something should go wrong with my main video card, I can always reset the bios and...

    4 year old powersupply, replace?

    Thanks for the replies, folks. I'll be keeping it then, and using the extra money to offset the cost of a SSD.

    4 year old powersupply, replace?

    I have a Silverstone ST85F Strider 850W that I bought in 2007. I'm currently running the rig in my sig. However, I'll soon be upgrading to a 2600K and a single GTX580 (haven't determined mobo yet). According to the specs, my current PSU is plenty capable. However, it's going on 4 years...

    In the LCD industry newer doesn't mean better anymore?

    I too have the magic NEC 20wmgx2. Wonderful product. I sometimes feel like I won a small lottery by having it, even though I paid a premium for it. There is some new hope as of late in the form of a new line of Gamer oriented IPS panels from LG. They displayed one of them at CES. No real...

    Hazro HZ30Wi, HZ27Wa & HZ27Wb

    Ok, thanks for the reply. It is a shame really, because it seems that everything about that monitor would be gamer nirvana if not for the rather unsatisfying RTC test results. Perhaps Hazro could inquire with the panel supplier about this. Perhaps, on their end of the process, they have...

    Hazro HZ30Wi, HZ27Wa & HZ27Wb

    I've been watching this thread for a while. I thought I'd pop in and mention that TFT Central has posted a review of the HZ27Wb: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/hazro_hz27wb.htm Everything looks great except for the response time compensation (RTC). Is there a chance that the test...
