hey guys,

i'm trying to find out if it is any good to use Low-Voltage versions of Xeon E5 chips for systems that are mostly idle. I remember that older Xeons would only have a lower TDP for full...

i used to be totally addicted to XS when i first joined and i still come back every time i get new hardware. seems like i made it just in time for some congratulations :toast:

i want to see if the card is damaged so i need a good stress test

hey guys, i can't imagine that this hasnt been discussed here before but the search function didn't get any results.

gpuz is supposed to be able to remove the GTX580s' throttling feature in...

ok this is weird, i just realized that my new asrock extreme4 came factory installed with the extreme4-M bios.

now when i try to use the varios flashing utilities provided by asrock, they all tell...

i think with triple buffering it won't drop to 30

from the outside the cards look so similar, so i was just wondering if there is any chance that i can use the cooler from my GTX 280 on a 580.

holy :banana::banana::banana::banana:! 300% of my chip :eek:

this would mean that one single core of the i7 is 50% faster than my olde kentsfield. props intel! :D

[edit] could you do another...

i'm missing the option "need 4 cores to play bad company 2 and gta iv" ... these 2 games manage to consume all my 14,4GHz just to reach playable framerates at 40fps+

hooray for console ports! :)

strange, i get 4.03 with my Q6600 also at 3.6ghz. looks like one of your cores was loaded with sth else

guys, i have another question. i've installed the 64-bit client and boincmgr.exe has no *32 tag in the task manager but the wcg-processes are all 32bit. what am i doing wrong?

i wanna switch to a Quad at last. i don't want do make a compromise however. my E6600 is nice and cool at 3.6GHz/1.34v and i want a Q6600 that does at least 3.6GHz without getting much hotter. my...

thx for clearing that up. :)

one more thing. on the download page it says that 6.10.45 is a "Development version" and that it's only to be used for testing. i've been running this version for some...

i got your mail today and i love the idea! i've installed the client and made an account but i still have some questions and im not gonna read the answers up because i've already spent the 5-7...

thought so. no taa for you as well

lol :D


lol^2 :rofl:

i gotta say i liked it a lot in the very first UT and the variant in bc2 is also nice. what bothers me about it, however, is that you'd think that 10 years down the road there would be something...

i don't know about the 655 but i have a Laing DDC-1T, which is the same as the 355 afaik. i've got the pump decoupled pretty good so vibration is no issue but there's also a whining noise just like...

it seems like upgrading for this game is completely pointless. i dip down to 25fps on lowest details and for other guys with much slower machines its totally smooth. i've read about people with core...

i think bf2 is one of the best games of all times and i hate everything console but i love the feeling of the controls in bc2. everything feels heavier and more natural. also i'm very glad that this...

are there even games with 24bit or 32bit sound? iv'e nerver heard of that before, but then again i'm not so much into sound, i'm more of a graphics whore :D

what's different in the HC mode in bc2?

that happens when you have a very high ping or when the server is full with players and can't handle the workload.

don't use the join now button like EA recommends, it will often put you on a...
