So I've been trying to get my EDC in Ryzen Master to read the MB max of 360A, for some reason it will only show 145A. In my attempts to fix this I've been uninstalling and reinstalling Ryzen Master and noticed that with each install the program changes the best cores. Now the top cores are...
So swapped out my GTX 1070 for a Vega 64 and now when i load any game its loads for a sec or two then I get black screen and have to reboot.
When I did the swap I booted into safe mode uninstalled old driver, etc. Installed new card/drivers. Ran a few games, and benchmarks and was running...
So my X99 system took a dump. No post, code 00. wasnt going to vest in aging system so went with a 2600 for now. Wanted to make sure voltage and temps seemed within range since its been a while since I was on AMD platform.
Specs are in sig.

Been thinking of upgrading my CPU but wondering if its worth it right now or if I should wait aliitle longer. Right now I'm running system in my sig. From what I can tell its benching around stock 8700k numbers:

CPU-Z- 495/3740

Had some free time to mess with overclocking the 1070 this weekend and noticed that memory clock and fan speed effected my core overclock/voltage. Heres my finding:

Just picked up a Zotac 1070 to replace the 290 that died a few weeks back. This particular model doesnt show up on their website but looks to be a Founders Edition PCB with last years 980TI heatsink and Tri-fan setup, plus the vrms have a heatsink. It does lack a back plate but for the price I...
I just picked up a 32" 2560x1440 monitor with the intention for running it with my R9 290. Long story short card died and Im suffering along with a 5770 till I get a new card. Dont really want to spend alot. newest games I play are Witcher 3, Fallout 4, and alot of older stuff. Was looking at a...
So longtime reader but dont post much here. Been on and AMD system last 12-14yrs and finally came back to Team Blue. Just finshed build rig and have been researching everything I can about overclocking the Haswell and the 5820's. It seems to me that no one has a 100% answer on the safe core...
If you were to put a 7950 @ 880mhz core/ 1000mhz memory up against a 6970 @ 1027mhz core/ 1500mhz memory would they perform the same??? In theory they would have the same fillrate and bandwidth..... Guess what I am asking is did they optimize the new cores or just add TMU's and clock speed...
So I just picked up a Powercolor 6950 on sale hoping for the best... and it delivered to a point. The card unlocked to 1536 shaders and now I am trying to find out if its the card or heat that is an issue with my overclocking problems... so heres a run down of testing:

After reading a few articles online and post in forums if info is true I am thinking that AMD will keep the fastest GPU crown for the year 2012... as we all have seen the 7970 is a great card and will give them the #1 spot for the first quarter or half of 2012. Many are saying that when nVidia...
I picked up a Gigabyte 870 board to replace the one that fried due to the power draw from my O/C'ed 1090T... I understand that it doesnt "support" crossfire but has anyone tried it on this board? I am thinking about getting another 6850 to CF if it will work as a 16x/4x board... from what I have...

I just upgraded my CPU from a PII 550BE(unlocked and O/C to [email protected]) to a 1090T (try to get stable at [email protected]) cooling is a H50 push/pull
The issues I am having is that the 550 running [email protected] never had heat issues and was P95 stable for 12hrs. But this 1090T running @...
Ok, here the problem. I have a limited amount of space in my case due tocase size, SATA port placement and my Corsair H50. So this limits me to video card size and I have been looking hard to find a answer to upgrade. So far I have narrowed it to three brands of 460's two brands of 6850's and...
Try to find a good LCD for under $300 with some size to it... it will mainly be used for gaming, surfing, and "very small" amount of vid and photo editing looking at these two so far but any suggestions are welcome

I am try to find a new card to fit my MicoATX case.... I have a MSI 5770 Hawk in there now and was looking to upgrade.. the 5770 is 8.25" long the max I think I can get is 9" and that would be pushing it due to it ending up blocking my SATA ports and getting close to the rad. on my Corsair H50...
