I just got a couple of sticks of the stuff, I can say that static lighting doesn't work with the Corsair Link though it is supposed to, as in you can set it to be static but it doesn't actually change from breathing. It supports the 100 series chipset, with beta X99 support, and they've said...

Best I could do while keeping it an actual decent PC; PCPartPicker part list: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/yf4Cr7 CPU: AMD Athlon X4 860K 3.7GHz Quad-Core Processor (£67.55 @ BT Shop) Motherboard: Asus A88XM-A/USB 3.1 Micro ATX FM2+ Motherboard (£63.26 @ BT Shop) Memory: Corsair 8GB (1...

Just a heads up, Jay's sample was a golden one, so the chances of you getting a card which will perform remotely like his are small. It's possible to reduce the power consumption through undervolting in either Afterburner or AMD's own Wattman. With a good card you shouldn't lose any MHz on the...

CPU-Z shows me a multiplier of 40. I've just been through the BIOS and reset everything to auto. CPU-Z now shows me about 1.26v while using HeavyLoad and rendering a 3d model concurrently. Not sure why manual 1.25v gives me 1.4v but hey. This is much better, thanks. It seems very comfortable...

Hiya, I got an ASUS Sabertooth S last week and thought I'd dabble in some overclocking today. However, my stock voltages are giving me a hard time. Typing this out and with nothing else happening in the background (Windows 10), I've noticed CPU-Z showing a max of just over 1.4v, and HWMonitor...

There is no video out on an Asus m5a97 r2.0, https://www.asus.com/uk/Motherboards/M5A97_R20/specifications/ nothing under rear or internal IO about it.

Well with Skylake they appear to have merged the 4770k and 4790k into the 6700k. But I suppose you could view the 6700k as the 4770k and 7700k as the 4790k if pushed to make that comparison. It's quite likely that the extreme editions will be named 7800k, 7850k, 7900k and 7950x, with 6, 8, 8 and...

I doubt that they're going to change from the Skylake numbering system back to the Haswell/prior one. Following Skylake's i7 6700K means the next i7 would indeed be the 7700K. Again, making it second only to the extreme edition ones. ~

Are you asking how many watts the rx 460 requires?

I've had a similar/identical problem with my 750ti on win10, you need to use this driver; http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/86510/ It *should* work for your 1060~

People have made much worse mistakes than getting the wrong motherboard :P Is your motherboard still within the return period? If not, I'm curious to see how far you get with the BCLK. ~

Have you tried with the base clock? I know that the BIOS will limit you on anything but a Z170 board when trying to increase the multiplier. You *might* have some better luck with the base clock. ~

B150 is not an overclocking chipset, Z170 is. Are you tweaking the base clock or the multiplier to get 3.6GHz? ~

Short answer; no Explanation; the 770 is Kepler while the 960 is Maxwell. They are completely incompatible architectures and you will not be able to SLI them. It may be possible in the future (i.e. years away) that DX12 will read a GPU as just a GPU regardless of arch or manufacturer and be...

Its possible, you need a modified motherboard BIOS (freely available from google). There should be no problems with it, the only reason we have the i5-6400,-6500 and -6600 is (aside from giving intel 3 SKUs) is that they all operate at different clock speeds at the same wattage (65W), so the...
