I went with the AX860 since it was on sale for the same price as the AX760. Aww yeah.

Hey everybody, I have an FX-6350 (OC) in a Sabertooth 990fx Asus board, with 2x 4gb Hynix 1866mhz RAM, Asus CD/DVD+rw drive, NZXT Sentry 2 Fan controller (reigning over 2x 140mm and 3x 120mm Cougar case fans), a Corsair CX750M power supply, a Sapphire OC Radeon 7850 2gb, an Asus N15 wireless...

FX-6350 ASRock Extreme9 AM3+ 2x 4gb Corsair 1866mhz RAM Gigabyte Nvidia 770 4gb Not sure if I should go with the AX760 for $170 or the HX750 for $140, this is an upgrade to a pre-existing machine. My current CX750m shrieks like a banshee when I stress test. Its a thirty dollar price...

Asus Sabertooth 990fx VS Asrock Extreme9 For overclocking my FX-6350 Stable in my m5a99fx @ 4.6ghz, but that mobo is going to someone else, and I'd like to reach for 5ghz My question is, i suppose, primarily about power phases, the Asrock board has something like 12+2 or 14 power phases? and...

When I disable the c6 state for my i5 2500s, it runs at 3.16-3.19ghz, but with C6 enabled I've seen it boost to 4.1ghz Why does c6 state prevent my cpu from using turbo boost? ASROCK Extreme6 z77 mobo

Idle at 4.6ghz at the voltage listed, it was around 40c or 100-105F. Under gaming load I've seen it at 118F, and imagine it tops around 125-130F (I don't know that in Celsius, I'll try to refer to temps in C in the future). I have a Noctua D14 with two fans sitting on my FX chip and four other...

I see most of you fellas are running Phenoms, can I post about my FX-6350 here?

I turned things up and performance improved! I mean a drastic improvement in playability and FPS! I read some other posts, and it turns out GTA IV is just very poorly optimized for the PC, bummer.

So I built a gaming computer but its more of a "gaming" computer because alot of games it has trouble with. GTA IV even on low textures, lowest anti-aliasing and basically low everything, lags really badly. The frames always cut back suddenly when im walking or driving and its a real bitch...

Turning off speedstep was the solution, now typical frequency is 3.35ghz to 3.8ghz, topping out around 4ghz, which is a little bit better.

Yeah I bumped the bCLK to 105 and it ran okay but I got audio skips in VLC media player, and I watch alot of shit so I immediately put it back. There's nothing I can do with the voltage or the multiplier? I adjust the CPU ratio but that also doesn't seem to affect the speed, it usually hangs...

I have an i5 2500s http://ark.intel.com/products/52211 Sitting in an ASRock Extreme6 1155 motherboard, is it possible to overclock the CPU? I enabled Non-K overclocking, but it seemed not to change anything, I fiddled with some settings and then it wouldnt boot until i reset it. Anything...

You are the SHIT Smorizio! In a great way! Thanks dude, that's so handy to know! Now I can leave my USB uninitialized for faster boot, and access the BIOS through the DirectKey, i feel like a moron for not knowing that. Thanks again man!
