Someone gave this code to turn into a cmd file. He said it will help me boot faster and remove some latency from gaming. Is there anything fishy about these lines? @Echo off @Echo @Echo Disable HPET bcdedit /deletevalue useplatformclock @Echo @Echo Disable dynamic tick (laptop power savings)...

I used to run my 1600 @ 3.85ghz / 1.375V 24/7. I never saw anything past 65C on stressing, so you're definitely in safe territory. I like to keep my CPU under 70C no matter what, but you would be fine going up to like 72C for stressing. In most situations you won't get close to that while...

Let me start off by saying that HW is extremely buggy software. I still use it to monitor certain things but it is well known to report hilarious OC's like 9ghz, VDD incorrect readings. All you need to worry about is the Vcore reading. That is telling you what your CURRENT voltage is at. You...

I think you would be fine to at least try in steps to reach your 4.6ghz OC. Your motherboard is a very decent one. It even has a dual bios option in case your bios settings get messed up. I personally only buy Gold rated PSU's from Antec and EVGA myself. But there's no hurt in you trying to...

I can't find anything about OC on that board either. I will say that your CPU is a legendary one for OCing though. It can still hold up today even against an 8700k albeit some stutter. If you get a chance in the future move all those parts over to a nicer motherboard so you can really get the...

First off there is no such thing as a CPU matching a GPU. Second, you shouldn't have to OC your cpu any more than that and the RX series isn't exactly known for overclocking. The only real bottleneck you should see is based on the games you're playing. I don't think you need to change...

You would literally have to put your whole body into going past the stopping point. With Ryzen it is very easy. The screw just won't turn any more from normal pressure. Make sure both sides have stopped turning and you're done. Intel was normally the one that could have possible problems...

I think you're worried about the wrong thing. If you can't even get into windows shouldn't that be your first priority? I would grab your windows disc or depending on which version of windows you have and get to the recovery menu. A fix windows boot option should be in there. If you really...

You need to just do what Darkbreeze said. You're going to completely destroy your socket and cpu if they already aren't that is. If it's under warranty that is the step you should take immediately. Switching out your cooler for even an air one might cause even more damage at this point.

I'd give you both best answer if I could. Thanks guys!

Ok so my first is for nh-d14 and nh-d15 cpu coolers. I know the fans should point in the same direction for air flow facing the back exhaust fan on the case and one fan should go in the middle (unless someone thinks differently). I want to know if the second fan should go on the back pushing...
