    8700k turbo downspeed during high load

    I think its my AVX offset but does CSGO also use AVX? Do I need an AVX offset if I am using manual Vcore?

    8700k ASUS Z370-F Gaming EVGA G3 750w PSU I was getting 4900mhz just fine at 1.265v on P95. Its been a few days and I havent messed with much. I even went back to default settings, then changed everything back to what I remember and no dice. Now when I play heavy load games like CSGO or PUBG...

    Evga G3 not compatible with Asus Z370-F???

    TBH I didn't do anything new, I was stupid and I didn't plug in the pin before putting in my motherboard for whatever reason so I had limited room to work with. But I had good lighting in there so I could see what I was doing and I could not get the 2x4pin to go in no matter what I did for a...

    Evga G3 not compatible with Asus Z370-F???

    I Feel like I'm taking legit crazy pills. Ive built 10 pcs in my lifetime if not more and never had an issue like this. The CPU pins simply do not add up. The mobo has a CPU 8 pin config, and the 2 CPU cables provided with my EVGA G3 are 8pin one side and two 4pin connectors, the issue is that...

    4670k needs crazy voltage. Is it for sure my CPU or is it maybe the motherboard

    Where is the information on the 4.5-4.8ghz only being 6% increase in performance? Not saying you're wrong cause I have literally nothing to base it off of currently, just seems wrong to me from the gain I felt I noticed from 4.3 to 4.5. I've definitely seen a lot of 4670ks that made it to...

    4670k needs crazy voltage. Is it for sure my CPU or is it maybe the motherboard

    I'm trying to wait for the new intel and further progression on the Ryzen before I decide what to do but I did go ahead and order a 1080 and a FUMA so I can OC hard and stay relevant for the next 6 months or so. I require 1.395v to get 4.5ghz on my 4670k. During games I am not exceeding 75c...

    cpu bottleneck? 1080 vs 1080ti for competitive 1080p gaming

    thanks for replies, i think my plan is to get the new beast CPU cooler and put it on my current CPU and get another 100-200mhz and then get the 1080 or 1080ti and roll with that until the intel comes out and decide from there, which is what both have suggested. I still just am not sure if I...

    cpu bottleneck? 1080 vs 1080ti for competitive 1080p gaming

    Planning to build a new rig but still cant decide on Ryzen vs i7 vs wait for new intel chip, but my GPU is struggling in PubG (GTX 770) I've been set on a 1080ti but I sort of realized that I might just bottle neck myself because i dont plan to go above 1080p, my concern in gaming has never...
