Say hi to Dave and others for us.
I havent tested them personally for 3D numbers yet, but there are bioses out there (for reference cards) which should help:...
nanoprobe - There is rising question as to the effectiveness of PSA testing... my opinion on the matter is that it is because the testing methodology is flawed if there are as many false positives...
It does and is why some review cards (and most early retail cards with Elpida memory) gave crap numbers even with a "better" fan bios.
Its not those $99 "micro" payments to pay for nVidia's technology causing the performance issues? ;)
What 290x's are you guys using? Some cards with Elpida memory will score poorly due to broken memory clock tables in the bioses and pushing clocks too far will result in the same.
for example my...
Depends on utilization. For cheap cards this has huge potentials.. :)
still running my original 290x, even with crappy elpida ram that clocks 1250 and nothing more...
cant say the same for the 7970 series, had 2 cards die with less than 20 hours of use between them.
I just wish nVidia would fix the TDR bug already.
Its basically caused by Flash, gpu clockspeed/voltage switching algorithms (they switch too fast), and broken fan controllers and yet for the last...
Just set up a D3 profile in the drivers so SLI is disabled for it.
Dont know why your FPS sucks, no reason for it to suck with a card that powerful. Do you have a crap CPU or do you have a ton of...
3DFX?
But they're dead..
same, consolitis is killing the potential of many top tier games these days.
Coil whine isnt usually a problem for the voltage regulators, just an annoying auditory artifact. Some glue can fix the issue sometimes.
Not all AMD gaming GPU purchases were used for gaming, plenty went towards mining.
finally a reason to upgrade from my 2600k maybe
Nvidia should get a new job if they're whipping the floor.
The market does not only care about performance per what and to claim that as the only metric that matters is just plain lack of...
You have a lot of latency in your way.
It doesnt break down the tests too well unfortunately, but no reason we cant test it for an over-all test.
What do you guys suggest for some good CPU and GPU based benchmarks? Need something that shows increases from northbridge frequency and memory frequency or timings and GPU frequency. I think we...
Did you install any bios updates recently? Could be capacitors on the motherboard going bad or maybe a heat pocket in the case due to some layout change. Tons of possibilities.
On a related thought also might want to check what the monitor section of your motherboard says it is giving the ram. I picked up an MSI board (A88X-E45) and when set to 1.65v it only gives 1.608v...
try bumping ram voltage up slightly, doubt PSU is the problem.
All systems were using Win7 so far.
4 or 5 different motherboard makes and or models. (MSI, Asus, Gigabyte, not sure what the laptop has in it, forgot to add the laptop to the original post).
Yes. ...
I dont see quickstream being packaged with CCC?
Took a manufacturer long enough to make use of the spare pins most CPU's have..
