Hello, This is my first time using this forum site. This seemed like the perfect place to ask this question so here I go.
I own a GTX 980 Ti Zotac AMP! (Non extreme) which is not exactly one of the best cards out there but should still be able to hold a decent core clock on the GPU regardless...
Hello guys!
I have a problem with overclocking the i5 3570k processor on the MSI Z77A-G45 motherboard. About 7 years ago I turned it up to 4.2 and it has worked without a problem so far. However, I had to replace the disks in the computer and reinstall the system, which resulted in a bios reset...
He has a 1600x900p monitor, and claims hes "overclocked" it to 1080p, his computer thinks its a 1080p screen and hes CLAIMING it looks the same as his 1080p monitor.
Im trying to talk him out of this non-sense but he wont listen so ive went to here to try and set him straight so please tell...

Before my cpu mhz was 4650mhz while gaming Now it is 4200mhz with the OC tuner in bios
I thought the OC tuner would OC my cpu etc ???
Hello everyone. I have an older PC that still runs very well. I won't be changing my 6700k yet so i wanted to overclock it which is a reason why i bought this CPU back then. PSU, case fans and case are not quite good and i'll be changing them soon. This is long and i'm not an expert so please...
I just bought a GTX 1050 ti, as you know most models of that card don’t require a power connector. I was just wondering if it would be safe to overclock it, as I plan on doing that. I’ve heard that it might not be safe, since if you exceed the amount of power that the PCIe x16 slot can deliver...
Greetings and happy new year to all 🥳🎄 !
This is a theoretical question, please consider I'm not building a new rig and don't need any advices like "there won't be performance benefit" or "best available options right now to go with".
Now I really hope someone will answer this question, at...
I have a Sapphire R7 360 and I’m trying to squeeze every last bit of performance out of it since GPUs are unreasonably priced. I already overclocked it at its limits and wanted to ask if it would be possible to unlock its shader units via flashing onto it an R7 360 896SP bios (a variant with all...
Hi, I built my PC about three years ago and have been struggling to get adequate noise levels and temperatures ever since with my 9700k. I started with two stock fans and a Cryorig H7 and have since upgraded a number of components which are the following:
i7-9700k (stock/4.6ghz turbo)...
Hello all. Newbie here in the custom pc space. So I bought an entry-level card, the GT 1030 for some e-sports titles and light AAA games. I'd like to ask about my concern, which is I got impressed by the GT 1030 performing better than I expected that I kind of got greedy for more and overclocked...
How does heat damage a CPU/GPU overtime? What changes in functionality occur when a CPU/GPU become "old" or "worn" out?
I'm not talking about thermal throttling, but if a CPU does age/has sustained high temperatures over the years, does that affect when the threshold for throttle in the future...
Does anyone understand about overclocking?
I am going to overclock my cpu, but due to limited settings on the motherboard, I can only set CPU FSB, Memory Ratio, Memory Voltage, Timings
These are some of my questions
What is FSB/Memory Ratio? Initially it was set to Auto and Memory Frequency...
About 4 weeks ago i bought a used cpu and motherboard ( Ryzen AMD 5 2600X, ASUS ROG STRIX B350-F Gaming ) for a upgrade. Since then i've had BSOD ( Blue Screen/Blue Screen of Death ) erros restarts, game crashes, google crashes etc.Basiclly every time i turned it on, and let it work a bit, i...
Greetings, finally decided it's time to switch from FX8320 to Intel(not a fanboy of any company but a worthy note is that last time I was on Intel CPU was in 2007 on Pentium D) because of the provided value their new CPU's have, especially 11400F. So instead of buying a Ryzen 5 5600x, I instead...
So Recently when i switched to windows 11. I've been getting this random shut down every 1-2 times in a day randomly mostly when I leave it afk. The error i get when i boot up is memory overclocking failed and then proceeds to bios and if i just hit save and reboot in bios it boots up fine but...
So I bought a new Acer 1440p 60hz IPS monitor about 6 months back. Its working like charm and I'm very happy with the performance. However, I came to know just recently that even monitors can be overclocked. So I viewed a few videos on how to do so on Nvidia cards and have managed to achieve a...
Greetings,
I've recently sold my GTX 1080 Ti Founder's Edition and downgraded it to Gigabyte Aorus XTR GTX 1080. I can feel the performance impact on many games as I was playing them on maxed settings and even upscaled many of them because I have a 1080p 60Hz monitor. I'm new to OCing, this...
ive got an AMD Ryzen 7 laptop which I bought 5 months back.
It was fine for the first 2 months and then the laptop fps started dropping to 20 while playing games.
I didnt know what the root cause was until I traced it to the vram(gpu) being stuck at 400mhz between a game.
I tried many methods...

Hello People of Tom's Hardware!
I have had this issue for awhile with overheating. It would thermal throttle quite a bit at 4.9Ghz (basically any demanding application: Premiere Pro, any triple A video game etc.). Utilizing the intel extreme tuning utility, I turned the turbo clock down to 4.5...
I recently overclocked my rtx 2070 super for better performance when playing Call Of Duty Warzone, I am able to get a stable 2000 MHz oc while in game.
Default max speed of my card is 1605 MHz. Temps never pass 60C.
I also play Valorant often, and I noticed in msi afterburner that my gpu MHz...

Hello! About 9 months ago I decided to upgrade my PC. I trusted them with building my previous build, and they were quite reliable, but the company insisted on also dabbling into water cooling they haven't really done previously, and messing with overclocking. Since I'm not a specialist, and...

Hello everyone, today I stressed test my memory with OCCT and approximately 34 minutes into the test I encountered one memory error, so I stopped the test and decided to check out the file that OCCT created about the details on the stress test. I opened the file and tried searching for anything...
So i originally had a dell 1080ti, yet it had incredibly bad thermals. I installed an ID-COOLING Iceflow VGA cooler, and temps are incredibly low even on load (around 37c). However, when I run a benchmark, it crashes about a minute in. I'm starting to think that this is because of the voltage...

Hello!
I'd like to start by thanking anyone who is able to help me with this, I really appreciate it.
So, I recently purchased new PC parts. I previously had an SG13 small form factor setup that worked great for me, but I wanted a case with a little more breathing room. Thus, I chose the...
i have a ryzen 5 3400g and a biostar a320mh ver 6, I want to try overclocking my GPU MHz to 1700 but I`m scared to do it because it might destroy my CPU.
So, basically my Sager laptop's GTX 1070 "died" late last summer. Except it kinda didn't. After nearly a year of trying to get it working again, I stumbled upon a solution of sorts. My card would crash as soon as I ran any game and would BSOD and reboot Windows. But using Afterburner to lock the...
Hello,
I've been spending quite some time messing around with overclocking my Ryzen system,
CPU cores and especially DDR4 memory and FCLK,
After some long hours, I finally came up with 2 stable configurations,
Which I'm not quite sure of the one to pick,
1) DDR4-3600 CL16 (All custom timings)...
