    AMD Overdrive Thermal Margin Reliability

    Hi guys, During stress tests I use HWMonitor and AMD Overdrive to monitor the temperature of my x6 1075t. I understand that the 1075t should be taken up to around 55-62 degrees Celsius as a maximum. My concern is that when HWMonitor indicates a temperature of 50 degrees in any core, overdrive...

    Access Is Denied (External HDD)

    The fix was adding a user named "Everyone" with full control in the security tab of the properties window. Feel silly because I dismissed this solution as unsuccessful earlier but realized that I must have done something wrong! Hope this helps someone.

    Video Card Noise

    My GTX680 squeels a bit. Immediately though something was wrong with it, but after reading online it seems that it is a benign condition. It seems to be going away though. Nothing to worry about!

    Hi guys, I just bought an HD7970 second hand from a guy which was working perfectly in his machine. I removed my HD6850 and installed the 7970 (which looks like it's in great condition) into my machine only to get a black screen. I changed back to my old card and did a complete driver clean with...

    Power Supply Advice

    Okay well then I like the sound of the seasonic as it's modular. However it does advertise only 20 amps over the 12V rail. Is this sufficient? One more thing, could I damage the card if I try it with my current PSU?

    Power Supply Advice

    Okay thanks, GTX680 requirements show a need for at least 550W so leaning towards the FSP now.

    Power Supply Advice

    Hi guys, I know there are millions of these posts. Bare with me. I'm currently running a Radeon HD6850 with my AMD Phenom II x6 1075T. I've been using a Cooler Master Extreme Power Plus 500W. So after doing recent research I've learn it's pretty bad. I am about to install a GTX680 to replace...
