I currently have an FX 9370 and it's ok but encoding 4k video takes forever.
Anyone have any suggestions on cheap ebay xeons 8 core+ xeons + mobo that could do...
I have 2 gtx 480s in sli and both have kuhler 620s on them,
The other day I booted up the machine and the bottom card started to get crazy hot and hits 110c within minutes even if not doing anything and then shuts off.
Running just the overheating card without sli same thing happens...
So I haven't had much time to play around with it over the weekend but I did try to do some over clocking to see what I could get.
It seems that because my motherboard does not support the processor I have hit a bit of a wall.
No matter what my clocking is at if my ram clocking is not set to...
I'm dumb! I cool&quiet got turned on thats why my cpu clocks didn't go up properly.
Now when I clock the memory at 1600 i see all 20gigs at bootup at 1600 but windows sees 11 with only 2 usable :S not sure whats going on there.

So i put the ocz back in and now I cant get 1600 anymore and my...
So i took the ocz out and my pc mark score went from 5052 down to 4580.
It still says im running my g.skills at 533 MHz :S
I have the bios timings and everything set manually no idea why it wont show it at 800 :S
Negative. This is a rev 1 board :( so it technically doesn't support the cpu.
Hopefully I can get the ram issue figured out and try doing some OCing tomorrow.
