PQI for sure its the only TCCD chips that i can get to run stable @245 1t command rate :) corsair couldnt do it and gskill i tested couldnt do it as good as the PQI
guess i got lucky on my retail bfg6800gt overclock. mine does 430/1.15 on the stock cooler with roughtly the same temps you guys are mentioning. guess ill have to get one of these coolers and flash to theu ltra bios and see if 450 is possible
I just built a rig for a friend based off the k8n neo2 and 3000+ 939 with a gig of PQI pc4000, and its smoking fast even with loose latencies. if you plan on overclocking youll be very happy
yeah 310+tax for the gt out the door price then send a copy of the sale recipt and a paycheck stub to bfg for 5%(i think could be more) under what best buy paid for it making the card around 270 or 300 if you factor in tax, but you have to be a employeee and if your buying it for a friend you...
on the neo2 some people are geting courption on SATA ports 1/2 with high FSB, but SATA 3/4 are locked down and shouldnt have a problem with the high bus speed
uping the voltage on the samsung chips used will not gain you speed nor tighter timings. i was able to run 2.9 volts thru the samsung chips anything high i had stability problems
well it doesnt look like it records ip's so you can just go back over and over to vote again, but i highly doubt they will pick the winners from our votes.
if by crapy ram you mean high latencies like cas3 4-4-8, get the gig youll be better off, i sure as hell cant tell a bit of difference in gaming with loose latencies compared to tight ones, sure benchmarks show it. now good quality ram overclocks farther usally.
if i was in your shoes id...
ha i work at 383, sold one last night to go into a gateway. i did encounter one problem installing it thou, there was a cap right by the PCIe lock that had to be slightly bent upwards to allow the video card to be seated properly
The tras of 9-11 works for the nfroce3 boards too :p .
If you wwant proof just run sandra at stock then the 9-11 range and youll see a increase in bandwidth
well i got a new bfg 6800gt oc today, got if for 276 with my employee acomidations.
so far i have it overclocked to 415mhz core and 1120 on the memory, now i know the stock retail bfg dual fan heatsinks are known not to be great performers.
would i benefit by going with a artic cooling...
great just what i wanted to hear. the store i work at already had a shipment in but they are holding it till the 20th, and i didnt want to pick up a copy and not like it. guess i know wht im doing tommorow :p
point of existance will probally be the main game i think. the last few lans a iwent to bf192 DC was all everyone was playing, and poe bfv mod is simply awsome. sure its still beta and not as polished as dc, but it will get there oneday
surely they will get hundreds of complaints and possibly put out a patch to allow you to play the game and use 120% at the same time. what game was it they did a patch too, and it did the same thing, any virtual drive was detected and the game would not run. was it rainbow six ?. anyway they...
with out a doubt the DFI Infinity or lanparty REV b is the best overclocking mobo for the athlon axp's. my nf7-s overclocked just as good but needed a volt mod to run high fsb. with the DFI board and better n/b cooling 250+ fsb is attainable
out of stock in the southeast too, but i already purchased a pioneer PDP5041HD 50" plasma a month ago ;) , but i would love a smaller lcd for the bedroom
256megs on a 9600 pro is a total waste, the settings needed to utilize all that memory will make both the 9800pro and 9600xt will give you a nice picture, but it will look like a slide show. a 128meg 9800pro would be a better buy
yeah but if you bought a 9700pro when it first came out you have to be happy about that purchase. it has been surpassed in the performance department, but is still a damn good card, and can play virtually any game at a decent res and details.
im running a vantec ion2 350 watt psu on my 3200+, k8n neo, 2x80 gig SATA drives and a 6800gt and have no problems what so ever. the ion2 rails specs are low compared to other PSu's but for 38 bucks it awfully nice
ive had no problem running the XL on both intel and amd systems, the only problem i had was the plug and frag didnt work on the ic7 max3. id rma the sticks to corsair for a new set
the sl6wk d1 3.0c is a monster overclocker, ive seen a few do 3.7+ on the stock cooler. my 3.0c will do 4ghz 1.70V on air with sp94 and tornado, but on the stock fan im limited to around 2750mhz. the 3.0c should give you a higher overall speed compared to a 2.4or 2.8
