    Thread Stuck In Device Driver

    I am having the same problem on my R9 390 PC. Uninstalling the drivers with DDU and then reverting to an older version (Catalyst 15.11.1 Beta drivers) worked for me but I don't want to be stuck on Catalyst Drivers when Crimson is so much better.

    i7 4790K Clock spiked really high for a while?

    I opened HW Monitor to check the temperatures of my CPU and GPU whilst gaming, and then I opened the game which caused the HWMonitor screen to minimise so I used ALT+TAB to see it and it showed my clocks to go to 9059MHz even though I haven't enabled OC. In fact I have undervolted it to 1.155V...

    I7 4790k CPU Temps Under Load?

    I kinda found out the answer myself, with some help from another forum (LTT), and figured that I had to change the voltage from auto to manual, at 1.100V I am getting 58°c, 60°c, 60°c and 55°c after half an hour of prime95 small FFTs testing.

    I7 4790k CPU Temps Under Load?

    I am at 1.100V and I got 57°c, 59°c, 59°c and 52°c. Shall I lower the voltage further?

    I7 4790k CPU Temps Under Load?

    Also CPU VCore fluctuates from 0.132V to 1.452V depending on load automatically, according to HWMonitor. EDIT: I have set it at 1.250V in the BIOS. I get 69°c, 72°c, 72°c, and 63°c at 1.250V with Prime95 v26.6 and RealTemp 3.70. VID is always 1.250V, Vcore goes from 0.132V to 1.272V.

    I7 4790k CPU Temps Under Load?

    These are my temps from RealTemp and Prime95: the temps are 100 - the average distance from tj max.

    I7 4790k CPU Temps Under Load?

    In the sticky I read that the mid 70s are good. And also 26.6 is the version that doesn't use the weird instructions that's why I used it (this version was in the sticky for this reason). Is it possible that as I only just installed it, the thermal paste needs to take time to adjust, I'll try...

    I7 4790k CPU Temps Under Load?

    Using Prime95 64bit 26.6 and Intel RealTemp 3.70 for 10 minutes under load, the maximum temperatures are 82°c, 84°c, 84°c, and 72°c on each core respectively. I am using a Cooler Master Nepton 140XL and not overclocking. Are these temperatures high?

    Cooler Master Nepton 140XL Bent Backplate

    I was worrying that it would take ages, I got a reply and they said I would get it in 1 to 2 weeks.

    Is that okay without UPS and AVR?

    You do not need UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) or AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation). Most people don't use it so unless you always have power cuts, it is really not necessary. The only time it matters is probably when Windows updates, you do not want it to turn off. Save files are usually...

    Cooler Master Nepton 140XL Bent Backplate

    I used the eRMA service to let them know about my problem. I am using the i7 4790k, so I really don't want to be using the stock heatsink (but I left it on for now). Is there customer service any good, reading online I can see that it took people between a month and even up-to three months to...

    Cooler Master Nepton 140XL Bent Backplate

    The backplate of my Cooler Master Nepton 140XL had a bent part on the Intel side of it an broke one of the black retainer for the screw on it. I sent a message on the Cooler Master eRMA site and also to the seller on Amazon UK (Box Limited). How long does it take for Cooler Master to reply and...
