Creating entangled pairs isn't the problem, but rather that there's not much you can do using them because while observing the state of one can guarantee the state of another, it also un-entangles them and they no longer stay in lockstep with each other. Mass Effect may have made us think that...

I have the ASUS GTX 1060 3GB model. It boosts to 1708 MHz by default. Using MSI Afterburner, i've applied the maximum Power Limit (116%), a 150 MHz Core Clock boost and 200 MHz Memory Clock boost. With these settings, it boosts all the way to 2052 Mhz on the core under load without any issues. I...

The BSOD message itself could be helpful. Any chance you could take a picture of it and upload it here? There could be a clue pointing to the cause.

Phew, so long as it's normal. I don't remember it ever doing that before so I was worried something was going wrong because a couple of weeks ago when I was braving the 4.4GHz i never noticed this happening. On a slightly different yet related subject, what do you guys think of the...

Hey there, second topic. This is more of a curiosity/worry thing as I only just recently noticed it happen, but i'm novice enough not to know what the reason could be. So to get the hardware outta the way: Motherboard: GIGABYTE Z270N-WIFI CPU: Intel Core i5 7600K @ OC 4.5GHz @ 1.260-1.296V...

Well things happen, can't do much about the tags now. If you're running windows 8, 8.1 or 10, you should have the option to refreshing the Windows install in case something really is corrupted, so you could technically follow the whole process without having to deal with making bootable drives...

I would say not to fall victim to super large cases which boasts "superior airflow" and "99+ fan slots". Any case you pick, just make sure that it has fans that won't be blocked by anything else in front of them. Always expect filters and meshes to reduce airflow a little bit, and the closer an...

I have a Cryorig H7 on my i5 7600k running at 4.5Ghz, and the Vcore is similarly near the 1.260V-1.272V range on auto while running OCCT at the most stressful, reaching 79C on average and the occasional spikes to 82C. I would say you're good. You don't have to worry about degradation so long as...

To be fair he says budget build but it's never a budget build unless you set a price point that you absolutely must not pass :P We'd both be able to make better suggestions knowing what his wallet can afford.

I think the following may help you in this case, your issue seems related: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-2342759/fix-clock-watchdog-timeout-error.html

So long as your temperatures are squaring off to a stable point, that's great. Still a bit on the toasty side with 80C considering its water, so you may want to either up the pump/fan speeds or lower the clock a little. Ultimately your best benchmark would be to run a gaming marathon since it's...
