    Right now the temp is 43 degrees C, but the load is zero because I'm using the computer. The core clock is 100mhz and fan speed 25% All the drivers came directly from AMD.

    Q6600 and new games

    With Battlefield 4 coming up, I have around 300 dollars I can spend on upgrading my PC to play it as well as it can. As you can see from my sig, I have an old Q6600 with 4 gigabytes of ram. I also have a Radeon HD 6870. Would that money be better spent on upgrading my GPU to something new...

    Radeon HD 6800 GPU load at system idle

    About a month ago my HD 6870 started spinning its fan at full blast when I was away from the computer. As soon as I sat back down and moved the mouse, etc, the fan died down. I brought up the AMD control panel and watched it. The GPU load would go up super high when the computer was just...

    Battlefield 3 General Discussion Thread

    I have an intel q6600 at 3.0ghz, 4gb of ram, and a Visionek Radeon 6870. I play at 1920x1080. If I max everything out on ultra I get a crappy frame rate. Even pushing the settings to auto has slowdowns. I just bought the video card. What do I need to do in order to play the game with...

    Battlefield 3 General Discussion Thread

    Does anyone else have issues with the game just freezing every 30 seconds or so and paging the hard disk? It is driving me crazy and making multiplayer almost impossible. I have 4 gigabytes of Ram, so I have no idea why it would be trying to access the disk.

    Battlefield 3 General Discussion Thread

    I've been playing the single player since for some reason multiplayer wont work (even with the patch). It runs great maxed out on my system, except one major problem. Every 30 seconds or so there is like a huge 1-2 second freeze. Is this what people refer to as microstutter? It seems the...

    Is anyone else getting "you were disconnected from the login server"? Every time I try and join a multiplayer map that occurs.

    Battlefield 3 General Discussion Thread

    I have to leave and go out of town on business tomorrow afternoon. Which means I only have 2 or 3 hrs to play. Does the multiplayer spoil the single player game? Or are the maps completely different in single player vs multi?

    Battlefield 3 General Discussion Thread

    How CPU bound is BF3? My sig has my system specs and I am wondering if it will be fast enough to run BF3 at 1920x1080 with everything maxed out.

    New AMD 6870 with old Intel Q6600 poor 3dmark11 scores

    That's the wierd thing though. Those are the scores people are getting with their Q6600s at 3ghz, same as mine.

    New AMD 6870 with old Intel Q6600 poor 3dmark11 scores

    I just got a new AMD 6870 in time to play BF3. I have a Q6600 running at 3.0ghz. I ran 3dmark11 free version and got a score of around 3700. It said that was a very low score for my hardware. I looked at systems with the exact same combo and they were getting around 4200 or higher. Could there...

    NAT port forwarding and system vulnerabilities

    Unfortunately that isn't really feasible as sometimes I need to access the FTP when I'm on the road traveling, like at hotels.

    NAT port forwarding and system vulnerabilities

    I run a virtualized instance of pfsense on my home server to function as my router. It works great, though one thing I have always been concerned with is port forwarding. I have to forward a few ports, notably 21 and a port range for PASV mode. While I haven't had any issues yet, couldn't...
