That's actually pretty interesting, though I hadn't read anywhere else about boost working best up to 60c, but that would make some sense since in games it seems to top out around 60c I'm using MX-6 with the stock aluminum/copper core heatsink though I'll probably get a compatibility kit for my...

After doing some digging I'll probably just leave it alone, the motherboard is a GA-AB350M-DH3 with the most recent bios As far as cooling goes I'm using the stock aluminum AM4 cooler with the copper core, with MX-6, as of an hour of testing on it tops out at 74.8c on small fft, the 5c...

I just upgraded to a Ryzen 5 1600x and was curious about the voltages I'm seeing in HWmonitor At idle I'm seeing 1.4-1.46v, but under load with P95 I'm seeing 1.2v, temps are a tad high at idle 40c-48c though under full load at 4.1ghz it doesn't go above 70c Everything in the bios is stock...

Yet another reason to never buy MSI Also if you have a CPU burn out you should never put a new one in the same motherboard because it's most likely the MB was the culprit, if the CPU didn't just take it out

I'm left laughing every single day when I read something new about GPUs like wtf happened? R9 295X2s consumed almost 600watts before being overclocked and never had melting issues and any issues with power connections for that matter Never had cracking PCBs either Meanwhile you people are...

The R9 290x section isn't accurate, according to passmark a 980 barely beats out my R9 290 and it's not even an X and is pretty clearly being bottlenecked by my 4690k@4.8 So no a 780ti or 970 aren't much faster than the R200 series, they're even at best

Hi I've got an XFX R9 290 DD, it's fans are dying and giving me major throttling issues I was just wondering if someone could point me in a direction, to either replace the fans somehow or find a way to connect an AIO to it if that's even possible thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me

I just bought an 290 DD edition where and it should be able to max out bf4 at 1080p, but I use a 1280x1024 monitor and when I set bf4 to ultra settings i only get 45 to 55 fps. I have a FX-6300 12 GB of ram brand new 750w seasonic psu and a gigabyte 760g Motherboard any help would be greatly...

Can an admin close this thread please.

And if I put the old ram and the new ram in at the same time it works fine with no blue screening So it must be something in the ram times the old ram forces on the new ram in the bios

ive narrowed it down to the motherboard the intel computer that i mentioned earlier has no blue screen issue

No it started booting after I reset the bios but after about 10-15 mins it blue screens and i didnt know if a fresh instal of windows would fix the error btw the blue screen says System_service_exeption

any chance it is just windows or that a fresh install would fix the issue
