thanks again, Im really stuck on a 27in so I can single monitor my room, So I have another question, I found a good price on a samsung cf591 curve, but its 1080p, at this size compared to 1440p will pix-elation be an issue?

Thanks, i appreciate your help, i may look elsewhere, i would just like a 27-30in monitor because i have a futon setup in my computer room i would sit at for movie watching that would be about 7ft away, any suggestions in the range of 300?

Im finally upgrading my 1440:900 monitor, I have two options I have basically narrowed it down to, reasons for these two is size, price and higher resolution. I will be using for about 30-40% TV 20-30% gaming, and the rest using for mostly general PC usage and light usage with design software...

Yeah, Mine hit around 90c full load before my delid, although I was on air. After delid very rarely broke 70 with 1.25vcore on air. That said, when you test at full load with a stressing program, do you have manual, auto, adaptive or offset settings on your vcore set? Or does this happen...

I can understand being uncomfortable. I delided my 4670k about 3 weeks after it was released and was nervous as hell, but i have never regretted it afterwards. Had an immediate 20c+ decrease in temps with a few more degrees after as5 set good. That said, maybe the best option until you can...

I agree, it seems like some degradation thus the need for more vcore, have you delided? If not and you are comfortable doing it, it will vastly help you gain more life out of your cpu while maintaining a higher clock at lower temps.

As stated when I cat5e to my Linksys E2500 the wired connection only runs at around 9.5mbps (I have a 75mbps connection) On my wireless I get 50mbps on my desktop across the room and on my tablet near the router I get around 85mbps. But again if I connect my cat5e I only get 9.5mbps (cable is...

i understand and see what your avatar is, but at a glance or with diverted vision looks like a embryo of some sort. lol

thats the reason intel is releasing the refresh of haswell with "improved" TIM, most likely they will be soldering again, or i hope anyways. At the very least a metal contact instead of a paste.

Nope, I meant it like I wrote it. Even with a aftermarket cooler the temps can still cause a problem, at least in my case, and many others I have seen and read across many forums. This can be due to the TIM and the gap between the die and the lid created by the black silicon used to adhere the...

If thats the case you might be able to reach 4.8+ after the mobo swap.

Agree, what cpu and setup? But.. It doesn't sound too far off to me, you had higher temps about 5c when set to auto at 1.3v, you dropped that when you went to 1.25v max granted, not by a lot. Was the test done back to back (right after you made the change?) If not your ambient temp's may have...
