sm951 =/= 950 pro

If there is Broadwell EP support... There are plenty of ES cpus on Ebay,.... Asrock usually rocks these chips e5- v4 | eBay

yeah, link me please

Use the multi overclock first. BCLK can screw you up in a hurry. I only tweek it a bit on most systems.

What I would do is not use offset to determine the voltage it takes for you chip. for 3.8ghz you should be able to run in that 1.1 area. Just set voltage to auto and multi to 38 and see what your VID is. Then try to set it at that voltage and start backing down.

Nope.

So I've watched A TON of videos today just to get a sense of the game. Looks interesting, but we'll see. The 1 thing i know is going to get old is the constant calling out of getting a kill.... "GOT THAT ONE" -_-

That is a pretty solid bet. With my 5960x and 2 780 Ti Classy's I was shutting down a 1200w psu :-D

I love my 5960x (even though it OC's like crap) I have owned 3930k and 4930ks before, but this thing is a different animal in rendering and editing! I also own a 5930k but I htink its about to find a new home.

Mine will do 1500 without touching the voltage... If you have a card that takes more volts to get a higher clock, then there is no way to rectify that unless you reduce clocks to where neither needs volts to achieve X clock.

I recently picked up the new 15 with the 970m and I have to say... unless you just need the 13" form factor... make the jump and get the beefier GPU.... its 1000% worth it.

Be interesting to see all the people that guy these and dont even bother to run them on water/extreme cooling. SMH.

I have a second one on the way and I"m excited... That is until my 3rd one gets here :-D I wouldn't keep the 680 unles you just wanted a phsyx card that is overkill :-D

What in the actual.... How... why...

its what's called "pin rot"... Its from the current with the moisture.

The CPU under full load go to +15c At idle it sat at -38c

Yeah... I had to put a fan speed reducer on the phase change to make it usable for 24/7.... There is nothing like being able to run a 5960x at 5.1ghz though!

124 BSOD = GIVE ME MORE VOLTS!

I posted this over at OCN, but I felt like since I'm new here, it could be useful here as well! Learn from my screwup! So, as some of you know I recent built a super nice rig with a phase change cooled 5960x in it. I did lots of reading and prep work to make aure I had everything insulated and...

The other leaks out there seem to indicate that it wont have double precision, so hopefully that will keep the price down somewhat... I'm still ok if it comes in as specced with 12GB and a 1k price.

The 980M is a monster GPU but is still gimped a good bit. If you dont need the desktop, then why not pocket some money and uprade. I do know the 980m's are EXPENSIVE though. What games are you playin to give me a better understanding.

Its pretty sad, but I dont think I've ever kept a GPU more than a year... :( I get the upgrade bug to much... GTX 560TI 448 --> GTX 570 (SLI) --> HD6970 --> HD7970 DC2 --> GTX 680 --> GTX 680 (SLI) -- HD7950 (Xfire) --> GTX 780 (SLI) --> GTX 780 Ti Classy (3 SLI) and an R9 290X Lightning -->...
