    custom fan curve not working (Titan X Pascal)

    i've set a fan curve in AfterBurner so the fan stops spinning under 40 degrees My GPU is currently sitting at 35 degrees but the fan is still spinning. What's wrong ? Screenshot here: https://gyazo.com/497361cb3284e7478d27977092cab188 Previously i was using same configuration with 980 and it...

    can't get to 3600mhz (ddr4)

    My timings are currently 17-18-18-36 @ 1.35v (default) It's a bit over the numbers you posted. Should i still try to add 1T to one or two of them ? Also, should i try with the default 1.35v or go again with 1.25v ? In my BIOS, i don't have an option for tRC but i do have tRCD in the "advanced...

    can't get to 3600mhz (ddr4)

    Why the CPU SU voltage is so high if it's unsafe ? Even if i lower the ram frequency or disable XMP, it stays at 1.44v on Auto mode I tried 3200mhz @ 1.25v and i was able to boot. I'm stress testing it and so far no bsod. This cpu will run 24/7 for years so i'm not comfortable with unsafe...

    can't get to 3600mhz (ddr4)

    i can't find this setting in my bios but something is called "CPU SA Voltage" is this the same thing ? It's currently in auto mode and shows 1.448v

    can't get to 3600mhz (ddr4)

    Ram: F4-3600C17Q-32GVK Motherboard: MSI X99A cpu: i7-6950x frequency: 4.3ghz VCore: 1.298v Enabling XMP with ram @ 3600mhz won't boot XMP + 3400mhz gives me BSOD after 2 minutes of RealBench Raising VCore doesn't help What should i try next ?

    Godly computer under $5k CAD for cpu+mobo+ddr4+ssd

    Any idea where to get Samsung SM961 in Canada ? Can't find it anywhere, but it looks promising I'd be curious to see how it compares to the 950 in the benchmark graphic posted earlier by Ecky It may be worth waiting until it is available in Canada. I can use my 1tb SSD Pro until i get my hands...

    Another question : if i want to consider using 2x Samsung 950 Pro in RAID0 in the future, would i need a motherboard with 2x M.2 ? I found only 1 motherboard with 2x M.2 Also what is the difference between M.2 and Ultra M.2 ? And thanks for the benchmark posted previously, i will definetly go...

    Ok so i guess i should buy an overclocked 6950X from Silicon Lottery website. Guaranteed 4.4ghz on 10-core and tested with ddr4 2400mhz. Sounds like unbeatable ?

    Why are you saying the overclock sucks on 6950x ? the average seems 4.4ghz, the same as the 6900k https://siliconlottery.com/collections/frontpage/products/6950x44g What if you put side by side a 4.4ghz 6950x with a 4.4ghz 6900k ? Which one wins ?

    single-threaded performance is a very good point to consider indeed. I didn't know that photoshop doesn't fully use multi-threading performance. :O Why not raid ssd ? You get almost the double of performence. Also the intel 750 seems faster than the samsung 950...
