thanks for the link seems useful, on the other side it feels bad i was really hyped for it, since he uses it with an 850w psu, anyway thanks for the answer, gonna tell him that nvm, it was a sweet deal tho 250$ for that card

a friend just bought a 1080Ti and is selling me his old 295X2, i have this Evga B3 750W Bronze psu, since i couldn't find anything on it, wanted to know if its possible to use it with this PSU, and if there could be any risk of damaging my mobo/psu/cpu or the gpu, since he's going to lend it to...

your optimal overclock is where you get good temps and decent voltage, for example my FX 6300 can OC to 4.6ghz(stock being 3.5) with 1.39V getting me a temp range from 25(idle) - 30(normal use/gaming) - 40C(on full load), anything pass 4.6, requires big jumps in voltage and that increases heat...

wow didn't know that, thanks for the explanation, damn to think that in next few years 8gb is going to completely be the "minimum requirement", i feel old, anyway that info was very useful, thanks for taking the time to answer :)

wait why are you suggesting to buy another ram stick? his problem is probably a bad windows setting, i had this issue on w10, clean install, fixed it for me, since i messed with a lot of stuff on my old w10 couldn't tell what was causing them, if you can't reinstall, then download ccleaner and...

well is just to save write cycles on your ssd, when you put your pc to sleep everything that's on the ram goes to your C drive as a copy, there's no really need to sleep with an SSD since boot times are so freaking fast(10 seconds average), i don't turn off my pc unless i'm going to bed, i...

disconnect every hdd/ssd and try, or try to reset cmos and see how it goes, or an ATX reset, your OS is windows 10? if that a yes does it has falls update? PD: if you have an SSD don't put your computer to sleep

so i was using chrome, and suddenly my pc freezes, no sound, no ctrl+alt+delete, thought it was due to my overclock, but i've been like a week on the same voltages without problems, this is the first time it happens, any ideas on what could be causing this?

mine stay like this, with LLC at ultra high(recomended by asus when using offset voltage)

so the the vcore reported by hwmonitor, aren't real?

i was wondering if this setting when used in high, ultra high or extreme can cause damage to my hardware

well since i got no answers had to keep digging, for anyone wondering about it it was the offset mode, it kicks the voltage up if needed https://rog.asus.com/articles/overclocking/overclocking-using-offset-mode-for-cpu-core-voltage/ thanks for nothing guys.

prefer asus over msi, i have an asus 970 aura gaming with a fx 6300 clocked at 4.8ghz haven't had any problem with it(just stay away from "OC auto tune" setting, but im seeing you are going to use a 9590 that's a thermal monster i recommend you go with any of the 990FX
