    bad pool caller

    So this error is so rare that I can't pin it down, but it's pissing me off when my PC shuts down when I'm in the middle of something. I can't even find the dump file it's supposed to be creating to figure out what's causing it

    Anyone familiar with Ivy Bridge Architecture?

    I heard a rumor that the IVy Bridges have heat issues compared to Sandy and Haswell. Not sure if it's just a rumor, but I've been trying to OC my 3570k and can't do it with a 212 EVO, yet I see others getting high OC with that same heatsink on sandy. Even at stock, I'm maxing out at 65C. AS5 and...

    Need some advice.

    120v seidon. Saw a review that said a 3570k never broke 45C on Prime, which I don't believe. If not, I'll take suggestions on any heatsink non waterpump below 50 bucks that can keep a 4.2ghz 3570k under 60C. I don't have time to shop around right now. I just need a new heatsink...

    Is it possible to raise the max resolution?

    If you go to a resolution your monitor doesn't support, it's just going to be a blank screen. There's a reason monitors have a max resolution.

    How to track which driver causing the blue screen: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

    Something is making an illegal access to memory. Best thing to do is start at the top of the list and work your way down reinstalling as you go.

    How to get max OC on GTX 680

    You can crank up the core voltage and memory voltage, but why would you want to? That runs the risk of damaging your card. For stock voltages, that's a pretty good overclock as it is.

    My GTX 780 keeps crashing on my new system. Help!

    If it ran multiple times without issue, it could be a stability problem. Use MSI Afterburner. Lower your clock speeds by 25mhz. See if that makes a difference. I know EVGA overclocks all their cards from factory. Maybe you got unlucky and got an unstable one

    gtx 690 quad SLI

    SLI isn't optimized in some games. Take far cry 3 for example. SLI causes that game to crash after every multiplayer match.
