    i7-6700k Overclock -- Safe Voltages

    I am running Prime95 Torture test and when this is running and i go into CPUID to check core voltage, at 4.4 and at 4.6ghz it says the core voltage is 1.360v. This only happened when I ran Prime95 and not AIDA64. Why is this happening between two different speeds?

    i7-6700k Overclock -- Safe Voltages

    I managed to OC my new i7-6700k to 4.6ghz on my ASUS Z170-A. Its running stable at 1.344v and 65 max temp. Will this be safe to run for a while or will it decrease the longevity of the processor? I've read online people don't like going over 1.35, some don't like going over 1.3. This is why...

    Liquid Cooling - Phanteks Enthoo Pro, which one?

    I have almost all of my parts ordered, I'm down to picking which CPU cooler I should get. I think I want liquid cooling for the OC I will be doing on the processor. I know the case comes with 2 fans in the front and one in the back. I would assume the radiator I will get will be put on the top...

    Low FPS EVGA Gtx 1070

    I understand. Like I said, if I connect to the master alone, it does not work. If I connect to the master and slave then it works.

The card has two PCI-e connections one says 'master' and the other 'slave' when i first just plugged 8 pin into the master i would boot up and it says please power down and connect pci-e into card, so I put 8pin into...

    Low FPS EVGA Gtx 1070

    I just bought this video card today. I installed it fine using both PCI-E slots on the card because for some reason it would not work with only 1 8pin in the card. Anywho, I am getting about the same fps as my old 760. Full ultra details im getting maybe 45 fps if im lucky in WoW. I ran guru...

    EVGA Gtx 1070 FTW ACX3.0 vs GIGABYTE G1 Gaming 1070

    I can't decide which one to get, i've narrowed it down to these two because I have simply always loved the design of the EVGA and i've always wanted one in my case, on the other hand the gigabyte has 3 fans on the card which makes me wonder and i've read awesome reviews about it. I won't be...

    Just a few questions about setup

    I appreciate the super quick responses! I am not overclocking anything but I will definitely look into a new power supply. If I plug the 1070 into the cx500m will things go bad and can I still use it? How does the CX650M sound? Its $50 near me And as performance goes you guys think I will...

    I'm not a big computer specialist and have never built a PC before. I bought this computer pre-built and it came loaded with everything. The person I bought from told me I could bring to Geek Squad or somewhere else to check inside but I am not sure. Anyways, if I knew how the cables all...
