    New video card needed for multimonitor system.

    First off I have been away from the hardware stuff for a few years now. So not sure what is going on in the video card world. I presently am running a GTX 460 card on a windows 7 machine. I am running a 24" and 27" display off of it and want to add at LEAST a 32" tv to the mix. 24" is at 1920 x...

    Korean 1440p IPS monitors - $200 or less [REFURBS]

    I got one of these, the Topsync 27, the other day after seeing this post. Mine looks brand new. Not a mark on it. However it DID have a screw rolling around inside. Took the front bezel off and removed the screw, put it back together and all is well. I love my new screen.

    Who's left crunching f@h?

    Yah... kinda sad... I am still folding myself as I am reluctant to stop and don't feel like figuring out a whole new program to switch to. Meanwhile in 88th or so place for the last couple of years. Still folding and probably always will... till my lights go out.

    Need new 1155 motherboard any suggestions?

    Yah that sounds a bit like mine. I loose the mouse... found if I unplug the usb mouse and wait... then plug it back in it comes back... SOMETIMES. Sometimes it locks up hard. Even does something to the network cause my other computers cant use the network either. Have to reboot this computer...

    Is it any good? I have had various problems with Asrock in the past. This computer folds 24/7 and has for the last few years. I have folding shut down at the moment while I cruise the internet. I use it for both. Have a GTX 460 installed too. Both cpu and gpu folding. Found one thing today...

    Need new 1155 motherboard any suggestions?

    I have been running a I7-2600K for a couple of years now oc'd to 4. I know lots of folks went higher than that but I never could get mine to. Meanwhile the system as of late has gotten a bit unstable. It would never run with 4 memory banks full (2gb sticks) So I ran on 2 for a long time. I have...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    Good answer Tiberville. I was once told to balance my load in my house as it would increase efficiency of the transformer at the pole. Although only slightly the theory was and makes sense to me that, if one side of the 220v transformer (110v) was loaded higher, then the other side would be...

    The new "died in the line of duty" thread

    You know I havent lost a board, cpu, psu, or any other component in many years. Not that I don't feel your pain though. I keep all my machines on a couple of big UPS's I bought many years ago. It kicks in from time to time but normally just lets the standard wall voltage (120) run things. But...

    GTX 460 dead (again). 30k ppd -> 10k ppd. I'm sad

    Yah what he said above. 450w is a MINIMUM. Your psu is not going to pump out enough to keep that rig stable. Probably the reason you have lost 3 cards.

    I remember contests for writing one line of code that would do something useful. Might have been in the 80's tho... It was in the 65-66 time period I worked on punch cards, fortran, on an IBM 1440. Large platter disks and such... torodial memory of course.

    EVGA Overtake

    I had trouble getting these when I first turned my 460's back on. Finally took out my advancedmethods flag and turned packets to middle setting and since then I been getting them regularly. The big packets thing I didnt realize I needed. All with version 6.41 r2.

    Hey can someone confirm not to use the big packet size on nvidia? I have never heard that before but have not gotten one 8057 since I fired up my 3 460's. Maybe thats my problem. Oh and if no big packet... then what setting?

    BWG thanks for the info. Your guide details how to change back to kernel 2.22 for V7. I am using V6.41 r2. In my case I just downloaded the fah_15 file you linked to (here) replaced my current fah15 file with it. It was a little tricky as I had to shut down the wu... delete the process from...

    SR-2 power question

    Yah well looks like the 750w will be the way to go. I understand about the connections. 6pin next to the 8 pin. I had bought a 1KW PC&P&C supply some time back to use with this board and THOUGHT I would need that much power. Turns out from what I am reading that 750 is plenty. Besides it IS a PC...

    SR-2 power question

    Yah been reading that on the sr2 thread. So... Looks like I will probably use the 750 Silencer PSU as it has more connectors. Besides I see wattage numbers of less than 650 for overclocks even.

    I have the 6.41 r2 client and havent gotten one in 2 days. No 8057 joy for me. Constant string of 8018's and an occasional 8046 or something like that... my memory aint what it used to be. All I did was turn advancemethods off and betateam on. Hope thats right...

    SR-2 power question

    OR... plan B ... I could change to the PC Power and Cooling 750w one I have on the bench, as it has more PCIe connectors. Just not sure if 750 is enough to run this thing. Havent seen all the posts on how much power is needed. Thanks,
  37. R

    SR-2 power question

    Hmmm well I only have two PCIe connectors on this PSU and need both to run the 460. What was the reported problem? Was it connection or not enough wattage? Connection I can fix. I have an email in to PC Power and Cooling to identify the rails on this PSU or hopefully someone here will know...

    SR-2 power question

    Ok so the 460's have their own power connection so that should be ok. I have an older 1KW PC Power and Cooling supply. Cant find any info on it but it has 3 rails. (not happy about that) So does anyone know how to figure out which lines are hooked to which rail? I want to use two molex to...
