Can anyone help suggest to me what dual/triple radiator for a silent WC build? With "silent" I mean that the radiator will give good performance even with a low rpm fan. I hate those buzzing loud...

Thanks but isn't there a way to undervolt the GPU just like how we undervolt CPU?

Hey guys, I am running ZOTAC GTX 780 AMP in SLI and would like to under volt them. How can I do that please? With the latest Afterburner 3 Beta 17, I can't reduce the voltage but can only increase it.

Thanks Arkangel and such a shame that ASUS didn't want to design a M-ATX board which could support an extra PCI-E card :( I don't want to give up my Asus Essense STX as most of the on-board sound...

Hi Arkangel, that's a wonderful mod you have there. I would like to build something similar (SLI setup) but I have a sound card. Do you think I can still slot it into the last PCI-E slot? I see from...

I don't think the gain would be a lot. If you really want more, maybe you can consider ripping off the IHS (since you don't mind about warranty anyway).

I did OC my CPU and I've even downclock it to 4Ghz with 1.36V (2500K) and that's really more than enough for that speed but still, it crashes. I totally have no idea WTF is wrong. It always crashes...

I seriously feel like giving up on this stupid game. I've changed from 2 x 1.2GB GTX 570 to 2 x 1.5GB GTX 580 and now 2 x 3GB GTX 580 but still it crashes randomly with no reason. All other game...

If you overclock your CPU, it works fine. The problem only happens if you start overclocking the graphics card. I have no idea why because it works on all other games except for BF3 :(

That might be a good solution but what's ICH I/O and IOH Vcore on the Maximus 4 Extreme? I can't find that option or names which are similar to it?

I have the exact same problem and I still does not know why. It's random and I tried changing cards, increasing page swap file size but with no luck. All other games are fine except for this...

I play a lot of games and I can certainly tell you no other game crashes as bad as the BF3. It couldn't be a co-incidence I believe?

Hey guys, an update from my end. I have upgraded both my cards to 3GB GTX 580 (SLI). In some of the maps, memory usage can go up to 2.1GB but most would be around 1.6GB-1.8GB. Surely 1.5GB of VRAM is...

I understand but EA has to be responsible and to fix whatever issues that we see in the game. Remember we paid for the game, we don't download it free or use pirated version. It's not fair for us to...

While Battlefield 3 is a really nice game with good graphics, I don't think it deserves to win anything because EA cheated our money buying this game and not fixing those bugs/problems with it. The...

Thanks and that means something is terribly wrong with my setup but I don't know why. Any hints or ideas? I play at 2560 x 1600, not sure if that makes a difference?

That's fine and I can agree on that because everyone has different preference :) The point I want to make is that the game is just too sensitive and could crash even on a mild overclock. If anyone...

Guys, I'm afraid it isn't any part of my hardware :) I'm using a GTX 580 SLI, Corsair AX 1200 with only a single platter HDD and 2 x SSD. I also have everything water cooled, from mobo, CPU to GPU...

Sorry, what do you mean? It was the crossfire causing the crash? Well for ATI cards there's another possibility - bad drivers :)

Let's make this simple. I have GTX 580 SLI and the stock clock is 772 Core. I bump it to 800 Core, increase the Vgpu to 1.025V so please don't tell me it isn't stable just for that mild overclock :)...

@don_xvi

Thanks and to be honest, I really feel it's a bad coding from the developers. The reason is because there are other high graphics demanding games today which does not have an issue when...

I understand but the thing is, even a mild 820 Core clock with 1.1 Vcore (I purposely bump it up to test) still fails :) I'm on water btw. It works on all other games except BF3 which will crash.

Another rant on BF3 perhaps but it's certainly a very nice game with good graphics. However it doesn't like nVidia cards being overclocked. I can run almost all sorts of games stable at 850 Core but...

I found out the problem and despite having 8GB of RAM with SSD's on my rig, I still need to enable page file. Once I had the page file enabled, I'm able to ALT-TAB without issues. To reproduce this...

The case - 30%

Well done anyways :)
