Agree with Bignastyid and wonder if you would be better getting a K processor for OC as well.

Just checked CPU core voltage in AI Suite and it is 1.325 volts - it is OC'd using asus ROG dual intelligent processors 5.. That is Offset Voltage = 0.025 V OC Voltage = 1.3 V I am going to get a H110i GT to replace it with as I am not happy with the performance of the H60.

HI, Ambient temperature in the room is below 17-19 degrees, temperature is roughly 13-14 degrees outside and I don't use my central heating until it gets cold (northern Britain). PC is on a table in the shade with clear space (30cm at rear which is only fan facing a wall). CPU Frequency =...

xZEDx - I had a similar problem with going from a AMD R9 290 to this card. I think that despite doing a full remove and install something in windows was broken. I cannot recall what my MHz was but the performance wasn't what I expected. I RMA'd my first 980ti (MSI Gaming) as it was shockingly...

My CPU temps fluctuate pretty dramatically even when idle / using internet type stuff. The temps go from 32 - 50 degrees whereas temperature at start is only 17-19 degrees (check front panel temps). The average temperature appears to be about 36 degrees. My motherboard sits at around 27 degrees...

Acurze, First question what is your room temperature? There is a rule of thumb that your CPU will idle at room temp + 10 degrees - this might be nonsense but there is some truth in that unless you have a chiller then you cannot go lower than room temp. I have an I7 4790K and Corsair H60 my...

Final update Reaper... New psu installed and was still getting crap scores... So installed windows 10 and now http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/8066400? LOL - I think one of the porn diallers has been secretly using my GPU to bitcoin mine!!!! Seriously, I switched from ATI to NVidia and probably...

I could have sent you an MSI card but the UK price is $900!!! Good exchange rate tho. Out of the three cards you mention the msi got the best reviews from what I saw. I wanted the strix but it was out of stock everywhere. I got the MSI and was impressed but thought it was faulty and returned...

Thanks rogue leader, I read through forums but most seemed to deal with PSUs that were totally dying which this isn't. I wasn't 100% certain if my psu was inadequate but the general consensus is that cx=shit ;) I bought a hx1000i which I hope is decent.

Oh very quiet as well

I just rma'd a msi gtx 980 ti gaming thinking it was a dud but I think it is my psu now... The card is very well priced, good temps and is a nice size.

Before anyone says gpu coil whine, the PSU is 100% the source of the noise - I took it out the case and moved it as far away as possible from my rig. Running 3dmark fire strike normal my gpu score fluctuates from 12000 to 18000 and during the test the psu screams and whines. The fan is working...
