    Fix temps/stable OC, 2600k/H70/Maximus IV

    What settings do you have in BIOS for 4.8 stable at 1.3v? Also what case/other cooling? PSU? Other system specs? You must have one of the best batch 2600k and rock solid performance synergy.

    Fix temps/stable OC, 2600k/H70/Maximus IV

    Sure. So the second time i reseated (recently) I left the same thermal paste that was there before. I was going to clear off the paste with AS cleaner and apply AS5 but I remember reading that the included paste was better. I can't remember if it was the first time I reseated I left the original...

    7950 VRM temps?

    Why does my Sapphire dual-x boost 7950 not report VRM temps?? I don't even see the text for VRM temps in GPU-Z (RoG or regular flavor), Afterburner, or Trixx.

    http://explorer.litecoin.net/address/LLbtUx6ZDgHLZBL9DRuFHTSLHMJVH2eD5T What does this mean? I have recieved .92 and .98 LTC so far. The second transaction mentions 800+ LTC? and 1.8 LTC? My total payout on coinotron says 2.10 but my wallet says 1.9, I guess the difference is fees? I've been...

    getting into bitcoining?

    I have found cgminer to be superior to reaper so far. Reaper may be based on older architecture. How do you check VRM temp in GPU-Z? Is that the same as GPU temp? Only temp I see. I'm having problems as well, I haven't got 24/7 stable. I can run cgminer up to 670-80 khash for hours at 80C...

    getting into bitcoining?

    Where can I check VRM temp? On Trixx/GPU Z/Afterburner I only see core temp. The wierd thing is although CGMiner reports 680khash Coinotron is only reporting 223.7khash, next refresh 321.6. The highest I've seen coinotron go in the past was like 550. Is it just being reported wrong or is my real...

    I'm working on testing your setup, running from command prompt. I like it! :-D I'm getting about the same speed but my PC seems more responsive! Plus this features backup pool. On GUIminer-scrpyt I was achieving 675 k/hash @ 80C. I set threads to 16GB for some reason, so 16384 thread...

    getting into bitcoining?

    So I was running guiminer-scrypt coinotron all night, it was going at 675 khash and coinotron reports looked good, other then it reported a 100 lower khash or so. At one point in the night I looked and guiminer said like 500 shares, dozen or so stales. My card was running full load 80-85C...

    I just started BTC mining today using GUIminer on Slush's pool / Bitcoin.cz, but after reading this thread I'm going to focus on LTC mining. http://dustcoin.com/mining This site tells me LTC is 180% more profitable then BTC. My 7950 ASIC : 57.1% :( My normal OC is 1135 core clock, 6800/1700...

    I haven't been able to run Prime past 4.6/4.7/5 ghz without it freezing. I just tried your settings and appears STABLE and CPU-Z reports 1.336v mostly also saw 1.344v, 1.352, 1.36v etc for some of the tests.

    Fix temps/stable OC, 2600k/H70/Maximus IV

    So how did you hit 5ghz with H70 cooler? I just tried default settings, VCORE 1.45, 50x, and although I can get into windows, I freeze the second I run Prime. Any explanation for your other bios settings would be helpful. Internal PLL Overvoltage/Xtreme Tweaking enabled? Xtreme OV? I assume I...

    Fix temps/stable OC, 2600k/H70/Maximus IV

    I just reseated the H70 cooler and now I see good temps with the H70! With 4.5ghz I'm idle at 28-30C and full Prime load is showing 60-65C. I've followed your advice and set 45 turbo on each core, 1.35v core , 1.5v dram , dram timings, and thats it everything else auto. It was stable with some...

    Fix temps/stable OC, 2600k/H70/Maximus IV

    I don't know if I have a really crap batch of CPU or if I need to reseat my cooler (done once already a year ago), but for a long time I was stable @ 4.2ghz/1600mhz RAM. When I've been stable in the past coretemp would report something like 40-50C idle, 70-80C load I believe still much higher...

    I've got a 2600k @ 4.2ghz right now. H70 cooler. Core temp reports 45C idle temp. I've had issues in the past going higher then 4.2 but I'm thinking about trying one last time to get to 4.5 or 4.7 I've got the Asus Maximus IV Extreme motherboard. Any advice on what I need to set? This...

    [H] users 7950 Overclock Results

    I'm using Beta 13.3 drivers, moved up to those from 13.1 before completing this OC. Yes, i have power limit at 20%. Heaven benchmark was all max settings @ 1080p. I've tried lowering to under 1112 VDC and I freeze up almost immediately, maybe it does have something to do with ASIC quality. Tell...

    Gavinni, I also have the same flavor of sapphire boost dual-x, the -20G card model you linked to amazon. I've been looking to get the best stable OC and here are my results using the clocks you found. I have had some issues with higher clocks like 1200/1575. I've left voltage at Trixx default...

    Touch-Tech mice, wireless mechanical keyboards?

    So I just setup my new G700. I've only used it for 5 minutes and I can already tell its the BEST MOUSE I'VE EVER USED! Software auto-detects your games and suggests macros. Scroll button is crazy sensitive and if you flick the button you can watch it spin. It's comfortable, wireless, and has a...

    Touch-Tech mice, wireless mechanical keyboards?

    That makes sense. All I can say is whoever develops this technology is going to make a fortune! I mean mechanical keyboards are still superior quality to ones that aren't. One day in the future we will likely see superior touch keyboard and mice when the hardware catches up and latency is overcome.

    Touch-Tech mice, wireless mechanical keyboards?

    G700 looks like it will suit my needs well. Why haven't any mouse companies developed low latency touch mice? One could easily see the advantage to a properly calibrated and configured touch oriented mouse.

    Upgrade from XFX 5770 xfire?

    So I've been using the Sapphire 7950 3GB (11196-16-20G) since Friday. I have experienced coil-whine in most games with or without vsync enabled. Anything that seems to really tax the GPU produces the annoying buzzing sound. I will need to return it if it continues. I know coil whine is luck of...

    Today I ordered Sapphire Radeon HD 7950 w/Boost and ASUS VG248QE 24" Led. Hope they are worth it! :-P Thanks for the help guys.Looking forward to a big step up from crossfire XFX 5770s and a cheap 23" hp led. I'll use the 23" monitor as a secondary. For secondary would DVI or HDMI be better? I...

How am I going to make a decision, lol. I was set to get the Radeon but then I won't be able to try 3D since...

    Upgrade from XFX 5770 xfire?

    I'm only thinking about 3D since I'm making some big upgrades and that could be an added bonus. I think its more of a gimmick. I will probably get the fast Asus monitor or find one with higher quality color and screen quality vs. motion handling.

    Upgrade from XFX 5770 xfire?

    As others have mentioned if I go with a single radeon card it should be a bigger bang for the dollar and compare favorably to a competing NVDIA card. Before the 5770s I went through a few evga 8800GTs but haven't used NVDA for a long time. After using this entry level TN led panel I have been...
