    Help: overclocking on 880G Pro3

    I can't seem to find anyway to lower the HT or NB multi in uefi. I've been able to hit 3.3ghz with 235 fb, but can't get higher than that. I've tried on the software side with their tuner program, but even when I lower the HT multi nothing happens and AMD overdrive won't let me change any...

    880G, 890FX, or 990FX

    What do you think of this board? AsRock 880G Has some extra features i don't need (onboard video, 2x pci slots, etc) but it is AM3+ and decent price.

    880G, 890FX, or 990FX

    I prefer new just for the warranty. So any reason to go 990 if I'm sticking with phenom2? Any real difference btw 880 and 890?

    880G, 890FX, or 990FX

    I am not interested in Bulldozer, I plan to keep my 1055T for at least the next two years. I want to switch boards to use ddr3, increase my cpu overclock, and sata 3. So what board would be best for my needs? Also no cf or sli. Thanks in advance

    870 vs 880 vs 890gx chipset

    Sorry for the hijack, but what is a decent AM3 board for about $100. Looking at ASRock and Asus mainly, since everyone seems to denounce MSI for the X6 (though mine runs just fine). Specs in sig, plus 2x4gb 1333 ram and am not particularly interested in xfire or sli. Currently looking at...

    Upgrade to 4870XF or 5870?

    I went the ebay route, though you can always sell through the forum. I sold my 720 for $70 something, so if you can get that for the cpu and each gpu, you'd be closer to a 5850 than 5870, unless you can find a really good used deal.

    FFXIV Benchmark

    Man I really need to improve my load times. Always something. edit-sicklown, mind running it with your 5870 oc'ed, since we have similar setups(cpu, ddr2). Want to see how my 5850 stacks up.

    Upgrade to 4870XF or 5870?

    I don't know the resell value of the 4870, but upgrading to a 5850 from a 260 only cost me $120 after selling the old card. An sli setup would've cost me about the same and I prefer a single gpu. Though for you, a new 4850 only cost about $80-90, so I see the benefit. If I were the op, I'd...

    minimum fps for gaming, what do you think?

    20fps minimum is fine with me. Though I prefer a constant 30fps, than 60fps with dips.

    1055T overclocking reference: settings, hardware, temps, etc

    Yeah it supports 16.5 multi for turbo. Haven't tried ocing without turbo enabled yet, maybe this weekend. I'll probably be limited with the beta bios I'm using.

    X6 Compatible, while keeping DDR2

    Yeah I have DDR2 on hand. My board doesn't appear to be compatible with thubans, according to the manufacturer's list, though they never added the Athlon II 620/30 which did work. I'm definitely going to try it out on my board first, but either way I wanted to see what my options were.

    Best deal on a 5850?

    What I was asking was if I purchased a new Visiontek through ebay, would they honor the warranty? Just found an XFX 5850BE for $300 after BCB...might bite, but now I'm itching for a 5870.

    Does anyone know if visiontek would honor their warranty if purchased through ebay?

    Best deal on a 5850?

    The only concern I have with the XFX card is that its a non reference card. I saw some new Visionteks on ebay, but I assume I wouldn't qualify for the warranty since its not through a retailer. Is this right?

    When to sell my GTX 260?

    I purchased the card for $145 amir (oh how I miss rebates), so if I can get $100 for it I see no harm in selling it. Now I just have to wait a couple of months for some decent 58xx prices. Just checked my auction and its at $53, with 6 days left.

    Hyper 212+ using two fans

    Everest, speed fan, and AOC read the same. (+/-1C) CPU: 19-21C Core 1-3: 19.8-20.5C Going to look at the Bios readings again tomorrow, but I recall them being about the same. Also, ambient temp is 21C/70F if that matters.

    When to sell my GTX 260?

    Never used BCB, probably won't unless the card is already reasonably price. Yeah, I think I'm going to sell it off this week, probably ebay. Guess it's no gaming or indie gaming for me.
