So why is AMD's software trying to run the chip at such a high voltage? I shouldn't manually have to undervolt the processor to get it to behave correctly. Even my idle temps are crazy high, with -0.1V it idles at like 42°C on a 220 AIO.

Personally, I think there's something wrong with the way the way the software for the 5800X is tuned. On my machine, I just ran back to back Cinebench R23 runs: Vcore offset [V] Peak Temp [°C] Peak Clock [MHz] Cinebench R23 0 87 4591 14614 -0.1 81 4690 15040 There is absolutely no...

Bump

https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N780OC-3GD#ov I've owned this card since new, purchased in 2014. Runs perfectly, only selling because I built a new computer w/ a 1080. Comes with box (no sleeve). Sold locally

Cool. So my $470 videocard is actually a $570 videocard. Super happy about that.

I'm going crazy here trying to figure out how to get my 2nd Qnix up and running now that I've upgraded to a GTX 1080. My previous 780 had two dual link DVI ports so it was no problem. I assumed a newer card wouldn't struggle, but I can't get HDMI → DVI DL to work at all. Does anyone know a way...

You're saying that upgrading from a 2500K to a newer processor is a good idea if I'm reading this correctly? My plan is to upgrade to a 6600k while I'm at it.

Honestly, I'm 100% on board with this. I guess I should have been more specific, but I have no need to max every setting in every game just to say I did it. I'm mostly concerned with texture and post processing quality (although I always turn off DOF and Motion Blur). With most games right now...

I'm looking to upgrade in the near future and I haven't been paying a lot of attention. It seems like the 1070 8gb is the best reasonably priced option. My worry with the RX480 is that it wont' have the staying power at high resolution. I've heard rumors of AMD dropping higher end cards some...

I can try that for sure when I get home, but I'm not sure it'll help. I've had the monitor overclocked for longer than I've had the issue. Same problem on both monitors, neither will play. This is a "clean" install of Win10. I fully wiped my old Win7 setup, reinstalled 7 and then did an...

Both really good questions that I did not think to test. Just a note, it happened again right when I was first reading these posts and a reboot fixed the issue as usual. It's very predictable, except I don't know exactly how long it takes to set in or what is happening when it starts. A couple...

I know this isn't the prefect venue for this type of question, but I'm not active on any other better suited forums. I've been having an issue with streaming video that's driving me crazy. It has followed me (on the same build) from Windows 7 to Windows 10, although in 10 it's gotten worse...

FYI for anyone interested, make sure you get Dragonfall. The base game's campaign is super disappointing. I almost wrote off the game, but luckily I played Dragonfall and it's quite good. Totally worth $15.

Did you sign up? I got my email yesterday after a few days of waiting. So did most of my friends.

See if you have a local machine tool supply store near you. You can also see if someone like Fastenal carries them. Do you have one to use as reference? Does it have to be the EXACT same screw or just one that fits?
