    News Discord Throttles Nvidia GPU Memory Clock Speeds

    Made a huge difference (set with nvinsp) for me, I have been troubleshooting issues with Horizon View, Teams, and Broadcast, which I use daily, and this seemed to do the trick. You can literally see when it took effect.

    Question RTX 3080: Flickering on top of screen using DP

    No problem let me know if we need to do any more testing, this feels like a driver issue and maybe forcing DP 1.4a across when it should recognize what version to use from the monitor. I think mine only support 1.2

    Does my CPU support PCID?

    I am still looking for a straight answer, but it appears at this time that MSFT is only putting in PCID optimization on Haswell and newer processors, through possibly a microcode update in the January update for Meltdown. I have validated everything from Nehalem forward has PCID support, as in...

    New to overclocking, looking for tips on overclocking the 5930K

    4.3 should be easy peasy on this. I have the X99s MSI Xpower AC. I have done two stable OC's so far, the first was 4.25 Ghz with a BCLK of 125 to get my memory over 3000 Mhz, that went fine until I updated my BIOS this weekend. Right now I have it at 4.5 Ghz, 1.23v 100Mhz BCLK. Most of the...

    Windows 8.1 wrong CPU speed? 5.63 GHz?

    This is just windows 8 being dumb. Seriously it does not calculate CPU very well in task manager. Use ADIA64 or Intel XTU to see the actual clock speed.

    Speccy just shows it as unknown but AIDA64 shows it as quad, so it was an issue with CPU-Z. Thanks!

    Amped Wireless Launches Wi-Fi Adapter for Windows 8

    I purchased this for my Lenovo Helix. Some comments on here I thought I would clear up. First, there are no drivers available for windows 7. It does not work on my windows 7 laptop. It is plug and play as they advertise on my Windows 8 Pro Tablet. Next, Performance did see a marked...

    Worth Upgrading to anything?

    So I got the card today, installed the new PSU and video card on my lunch break. Had enough time to log into WoW, huge difference in FPS. With the settings all low, I get 60 fps in IF. Turned all the way up, 50. Shat City is still bad, around 24, but that is with the settings turned all up...

    Worth Upgrading to anything?

    Well I just finalized my things. At lunch I went home, logged into World of Warcraft, Shattrath city and had 12 fps. So I uninstalled the 6.8 catalyst, removed the X1650, put back in the 9800XT, booted into safe mode, used driver cleaner pro. Logged back in to windows XP, intalled 5.10, logged...

    Worth Upgrading to anything?

    Also 2 of the cards you suggested, the 7600 serise, have only a 128 bit memory interface, while my 9800XT already has a 256

    Worth Upgrading to anything?

    Which cards would work fine with a 350w Antec Power supply? Its run great for me and I don't really want to replace it, all I have is the processor, 2 DVD RW drives and a 7200 RPM drive in the computer.
