Greetings, Time for an update on this. I decided to: 1. Get a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (not because my H70 was not cooling well, but...
Yes, that is what I believe... and is consistent with the fact that over-tightening the cooler improved the situation. I'll likely try to RMA...
I *think* you need 1.4 for 3D: http://www.hdmi.org/manufacturer/hdmi_1_4/3d.aspx At least for full 1080p.... there are rumours about being...
Finally, the results when tested with my relative's pieces (I used my hard drives on all tests, so, software is the same): 1. His A6 CPU, full...
Nope, I have not seen a kernel panic. RAM *should* be fine, unless I was unlucky enough to have *two* bad RAM sets :( (I tried changing RAM)....
Redundancy, and higher read speed (write speed is slightly less than slower drive), also better random read performance.
nope, these are on a *software* RAID1 array, and the RAID members are "green" WD drives :thumbup: . Well, actually some of the VMs are on a...
Well, thanks God, I got a relative to borrow me his A6 FM1 PC for tests tomorrow, so, I'll be exchanging pieces and testing for a few hours......
Sorry, forgot to include this, the resolution of the Heaven benchmark: 1280x720 2xAA windowed
I don't believe the stability issues to be AMD-related. I like AMD, and I have been using it for a while. Most likely I just have some faulty...
Not entirely sure right now, but I believe it was 1.38xV (it had 3 decimal digits on BIOS) originally, and I lowered it to 1.33xV. I'll reboot...
Yeah, I already tried that. I had to modify CPU voltage, lower it by -0.05 to avoid this from going above 60ºC.
mmm... VRM... I have had a bad feeling about that for a long time. Initially, fans were a lot better placed, later, because I had to put in the...
Tests. I'm a Linux user, mostly (99% of what I do is in Linux). W8 and W7 VMs are used for testing purposes (test services interaction,...
So... according to this, my CPU is burning! I get over 60ºC with full-load, with the H70 cooler, no overclocking! Now, I have read a couple of...
True, on the OC part.... actually, I had a really hard time deciding between both of them. The K part lacks this: Intel® vPro Technology...
Nope, because I run lots of VMs, I usually launch: 1x Windows 7 VM. from 1 to 8 Linux VM 1x Windows 8 VM so... I need at least 12GB........
Greetings, After having months of PC stability issues, and facing the need to get new pieces to "fix it", with the uncertainty of where the...
Hi again! Maybe my post was too long, and this point got lost.... I mean, >80 persons saw thread post, but no-one shared their temp: it had to...
Jeff: I have been in the same boat as you in the past.... IMO, if you are going to do some serious computing, you need to get a "gaming laptop",...
