    Undervolting affecting FPS....?

    well, you can run them both at the same time, though, it doesn't stress one core (the core being used by furmark) nearly as much, so stability cant be 99% certain like if it were with p95. though, it would maximize the temps in the case and thus test it for temperatures. either way is fine. i...

    Undervolting affecting FPS....?

    occt and furmark are the 2 for gpu stress testing for max heat. i would suggest going longer on p95. at least an hour. don't just go until temperatures stabilize, you only do that to see if you can go higher with the voltages. best thing to do is to run p95 for at least an hour, then furmark...

    CHKDSK error

    if you can, open up the command prompt and run chkdsk -f. this will try to fix any problems in the drive. if this doesn't work, a new drive will be needed edit: though, if you have another computer you can try the drive on, i would move it to that one and test it as a secondary drive, see if...

    Undervolting affecting FPS....?

    gpu undervolting doesn't happen much because their usually fairly low voltage as is. though, you can try MSI afterburner http://event.msi.com/vga/afterburner/ you should first try to raise your voltage up a tad with your cpu and NB just to be sure and run the tests again

    Final Piece: which hard drive?

    even if its a bargain, i wouldn't get it. even if you do. i wouldn't suggest putting anything you can not risk losing. i own the 7200.12 500GB. its very nice. i can often get real transfer rates upwards of 90+MB/s when transferring between drives or over gigabit network to another 7200.12...

    Overclocking phenom x4 955BE

    press f1 in the bios, this will unlock the more advanced features. you will be able to select the multiplier and raise it. i would estimate that you could raise it +2 before you need to up the voltage. if you want more speed, you will need to up the voltage. warning, raising the voltage will...

    ATI Shapphire HD 4870 running hot?

    no, the bios on the card is on the card itself. if you were to get a new card, then maybe you could get into your old cards bios and set it back, or download a good set of bios and replace the ones you put in. cant say if that will work or not. its just an idea

    ATI Shapphire HD 4870 running hot?

    there is a possibility that the rewrite of the bios may have inadvertently killed your card. to test this, you should try and enter the motherboard bios. if you still get nothing, then i would rule the card dead

    ATI Shapphire HD 4870 running hot?

    well, all of sapphire's 4870's are dual slot cards. taking off the side of the case is a temporary solution. instead. i would invest in at least 1 new fan. if you case supports 120mm fans i would suggest http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835426016...
