why would i sell it. my g502 protus prectrum is working fine now.

It seems ambient temps are super important as well. My idle temps have been as low as 25c lately as the outside temp is at 10c during the day and 0c at night . The highest temps have been for sure and the paste has had time to set in. My max cpu only stress test is around the same today as its...

videos like this really show show this GPU can be held back at times. its likely poor coding but this game is also very dynamic in weather and other texture aspects 1070 with i5 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Q6b9sE3MDM my rig with 1070 and i7 4790k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4SyqzsiY1E

So i'm posting this to help others as i have found the solution to the issue. I use a Logitech G502 Protus Spectrum mouse for gaming and i noticed i would get stuttering after a few days of use. I would then wash the mouse pad as i thought sweat and dirt maybe to blame. i was even using a 1mm...

so in most games the i5 is perfectly good, but it seems in those poorly optimized large games like the division an i7 is better paired with higher end GPUs. though even with an i74790k a gtx 9709 still shows 45-60 fps in the division so i think it's just that game. when i got the gtx 1070 my...

stress testing with the h100i showed about 65c

well i upgraded to the h100i and the idle temps are still 30c and in the division the max i saw was around 60c so thats good news but it seems from some research that the i7 4790k is known for higher temps. it is a 4.0 boost to 4.4 after all straight outta the box. im happier now anyway and it...

another thing is that when i did the stress test, it jumped up to about 64c but then slowly made its way to 72c. it wasn't an instant jump to 72c. i've been thinking of getting the H100i gt or v2 depending on whats out but i'd need a new case, as the 100i doesnt fit properly in a THERMALTAKE g42...

as it says in the title i'm wondering if my temps are on the high side. i'm using arctic silver 5 thermal paste with new Deepcool TF120 Gamerstorm fans, 1800rpm, 3.5 static pressure and 75cfm at max in a push pull as the product suggests. i was using Corsair SP120 High Performance fans at...

OK so I got an i7 4790k and my frame rate exploded. I get a more constant 75-80 fps with much less lags. So it seems an i5 can bottleneck a GTX 1070 in CPU heavy Games. This gs like doom, BF4, and Batman arkham kight ran great. But the division and watch dogs seem to need an i7. I had about...
