    My video card doesn't run at full load even under stress?

    Well that was it, thanks to everyone for the good information :P There should be a FAQ on Nvidia's website about this because it's really not so obvious.

    My video card doesn't run at full load even under stress?

    To re-explain the whole thing, I was getting nice clocks at first until at some point the game went from 200fps, screen blinked, and it went down to 30fps and low clocks. That's it for starcraft but I can tell also based on my 3dmark review that it's not running at full capacity, even tho I...

    My video card doesn't run at full load even under stress?

    In starcraft2 Ultra mode, it's not even running at full capacity, also in 3dmark. I tried to OC the card and it worked at first, it showed OCed, and after a while the screen reloaded and boom low performance. Either something went wrong or I don't know...

    My new power supply began to make a weird ticking sound...

    Probably just the fan then, thanks!

    My video card doesn't run at full load even under stress?

    I took a screenshot of the MAX clocks my gfx card goes up to, shouldn't it be higher than that for a GTX260 or are some multipliers not shown that I should calculate?

    My new power supply began to make a weird ticking sound...

    I had not noticed this, but the back of the power supply does emit a crying sound like a dying capacitor would, I'm scared the PSU might be leaking current, it would totaly make that kind of high pitch frequency leak + sparks sounds wouldn't it?

    My new power supply began to make a weird ticking sound...

    I just got myself a new power supply and it was allright until 1 week later, it began today to do some ticking sounds as if there were sparks inside or if the fan would be tickling against a cable or unstable, but I cannot tell which... What do you guys think? Faulty PSU or just a fan problem?

    Is an old 500W Enermax Liberty ok for Sandy Bridge 2600K?

    Does it matter that the Rocketfish (Huntkey 900W) only pushes 16AMP on all of it's five 12V rails? Someone told me it was very bad and I should replace it for a better power supply with less watts but that delivers more AMPS on the 12V rail (like 35 to 50 AMPS). Is that important or what?

    Is an old 500W Enermax Liberty ok for Sandy Bridge 2600K?

    Anyway, so far I'm pleased with the modular cabling of the PSU, and a review showed that it's very good quality. I might just keep it after all? Maybe I'll order a Silent Pro 700W instead too, I'll compare both... The Asus P8P67 seems to work fine so far, I yet have to try some games with my...

    Is an old 500W Enermax Liberty ok for Sandy Bridge 2600K?

    It's a Rocketfish, apparently the unit is a home brand for Best Buy and it's built by Hunkey. It's 80+ Silver certified, SLI certified, etc... So far it seems allright, but I'll try to find a review of it also, reason I bought it is that I paid only 100$ for it instead of 160$ and I had a...

    Is an old 500W Enermax Liberty ok for Sandy Bridge 2600K?

    Hello! I have bought the 2600K with the Asus P8P67 and I have 4GO of Corsair Dominator 1600mhz plus one regular hard drive, one dvd burner, and a Nvidia 260GTX. My current power supply is an Enermax LIBERTY 500W, it is old but it is rated (2 rails for the +12v) at 32A combined. Someone...
