With the introduction of Ryzen 2, traditional overclocking seems to be going away - in that most of the chips we're getting are already pretty optimized out of the gate.
I believe the future of overclocking will be enthusiasts focusing mostly on cooling capabilities to allow our CPU's to hit...
Hey Guys - just was curious what other folks that own the 2070 are getting for overclocks. I want to know if I got a dud or I won the silicon lottery and I can't tell because I have nothing to compare my OC to.
Gigabyte Windorce 2070
MSI Afterburner
Manual Overclock
Core +150mhz
Memory +650mhz...
Perfect condition! PC3-10700(667mhz)
Perfectly working RAM. I just upgraded to 16GB Corsair 4X4GB and have no space for these and our other two PC's take DDR2 (Asus P5B Deluxe and Q9450 - Daughter) and DDR4 (Ryzen 1600x - Son).
Hi Guys - my current rig in my sig. Looking to upgrade my graphics card to either a 1070ti or 2070. I actually run two monitors, the other (not in my sig is a Dell 1080P IPS display).
I play games like Diablo, Heroes of the Storm, Slay the Spire, and all manner of ARPG. I would like to play...
I already own this game on the PC, but was planning to purchase it for the PS4 at the end of the year so that I can play sprawled out like a lazy ass on my couch.
Anyone else planning to get it for consoles? Any idea if the two consoles will share the same AH?
Hi Guys,
I created a new region on the NA West 4 Server called Hybertron that anyone can join as I left it public.
Origin Name - Nearsite00
Server - NA West 4
Region Name - New Tarsonis
Sorry Forum Admins, not sure where to put this, so feel free to move.
Anyhow, I just got a postcard from my local Microcenter in Santa Clara, CA, that they will be closing down shop in the next several weeks as they could not negotiate a new lease at their current location.
The impact to...
Hi There - I thought I'd put together this short write up on my overclock settings with Asus bios for the 3750K in hopes of helping others that have a 3750K overclock theirs if they wish and for comparison purposes for those that already know how to do this.
My rig is in my sig. Upgraded from...
) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing?
Mostly MMO gaming, WoW, GW2, Secret World, some encoding of video files so that they'll work on my WD Player, viewing photos, web surfing and downloading here and there.
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping...
Hi everyone,
I'm hoping you guys can help me decide which CPU to purchase. I'm wondering how much the 3770 non K will overclock to? What is it's maximum multiplier? I'm hoping to reach 4.0 to 4.2 on the non K version of the 3770.
Very interesting article from Charlie at SemiAccurate. I think there are a lot of points that can be discussed and HardOCP is mentioned in the article as well.

Hello Folks,
I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to use my wireless 360 controller with my PC. I'd like to try and play Batman on my PC with the 360 controller, but when I plug in the USB charger, it does not work.
Thanks!
Hi guys,
I just installed a vantage closed loop liquid cooling system into my rig. Works fine and is quiet, except for when I turn it on and it's cold, then this POS makes this annoying beeping sound until it warms up.
Any of you guys have this experience, or rather, no how to get rid of...
I'm so sick and tired of FPS!!!! Counterstrke, ModernWarfare and BF are fine as that's what they are meant to be, but when Fallout became a FPS, then now XCOM and Syndicate, a have to give a big WTF.
I think the problem is with the younger generation who are too use to 3D engines and such and...
Hi There,
I'm not sure if I"m doing something against policy or not, but I just recently upgraded to Windows Home Premium 64bit and no longer need my 32 bit version so I'm sellling it. I believe only one computer may have this installed at a time.
I have original case and CD key.

It's been six years since I upraded to my C2D back in 2006. This is the longest I've went in my life without a total system upgrade, so I think I'm due for one. Last thing I updated two years ago was my E6600 to Q9450.
Unless you guys think I can play Guild Wars 2 and The Secret World on...
Hi guys,
Selling my SteelSeries 6Gv2 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard with Cherry Black switches. Perfect condition and comes with tray (which it normally does not). Clean, no scratches, rarely used.
It will make love to your fingers as you type. Selling because I need to get another mechanical...
Hello [H] Folks,
I thought I'd bring up this subject as I've been contemplating upgrading my rig (see sig) sometime this year as I've been running the mobo and socket 775 for 5 years now.
I don't know if I'm just getting older and wiser or what, but lately I've been feeling that spending...
By now I'm sure alot of you have experienced multiplayer on SC2, either in Beta or retail. I feel Terran are overpowered due to the fact they have sooooo many options to go.
Anyone else feel this way?
Mid Platinum Protoss player.

Will AMD release a CCC that will allow higher GPU Core and Mem Clocks than they provide currently?
I really don't want to flash my bios or use MSI Afterburner.
I don't want to use the AMD GPU Clock utility becuase I like how the CCC drops the core and memory clocks in 2d mode and I don't...
I just picked up the Comp USA 5850 deal, so I now need to sell my XFX 5770. Less than 6months old and in PERFECT condition.
Comes with original box and accessories. Lifetime warranty for you as well.
$145 Shipped. No trades please!
I really want to play ME2 from all the good things I'm hearing about this game, however I never played ME1 and I understand that some of the decisions you made in ME1 affect ME2, so if I just start playing ME2, will I not understand the game or get the full experience of it?
BTW - I loved...
Hey guys, has anyone had any experience with problems getting their microphone to work in Win 7. My mic worked in XP and Vista and as soon as I upgraded to Win7, it won't even pick up my mic.
Anybody know of a fix. I have the latest drivers. Rig in signature.
Is it OK to manually adjust my video card fan and have it run constantly at 50%. The reason I'm asking is becuaes I've OC'ed my video card and want it to stay cool.
Hey guys, seeing as how I couldn't get myself a 5850, and had to settle for a 5770, can we get we start a record of the overclocks you guys are getting on your 5770s? Please state the below:
-Brand of 5770
-Core OC
-Memory OC
Here's mine
XFX
935mhz
1365mhz
So I finally caved in and pulled the trigger on an XFX 5850 at Fry's. My problem is in I'm trying to register the video card.
I went to their site, filled in the information they request to log in, but every time I try to log in, it doesn't seem to be doing anything. I can't locate the link...
I know it isn't the 5850/5870, but it's still available. No shipping, just tax if you live near a Fry's.
I went from wanting a 5850, then settling for a 5770, then went back to wanting a 5850. Now they are all out of 5850s, unless you want to pay over $300.00 for one online (including any...
I've ordered my XFX 5850 on Amazon for $259.99 with no tax or shipping. (Amazon indicates it will ship out in 2-5 weeks).
It's pretty sad when you pay msrp and it's a hot deal. I guess I'll be twiddling my thumbs for another month or so.
I wasn't an early adopter of the 5850 or 5770 becuase I wanted to wait to see how these two stacked up against one another and then try to make an informed decision based on my needs. Now that I've decided that I want to purchase the 5850, they're no where to be found at MSRP.
AMD - When the...
