thanks 8pack
i cant stop tinkering i have more fun with that than gaming lol
but have 4.6GHz @ 1.3v adaptive and she flies compared to 8350
and i have a gem with my kfa2 gtx 1080 boosts to 1900mhz under stess test, thought boost was only 1733mhz for founders?
anyways very happy i made...
thanks for advice im new to intel its all abit different to amd but im @ 1.26v 4.5ghz running prolonged stress test now but all good on adaptive voltage and is almost identical to bios setting
the coil whine seems to have stopped at the mo, but if it returns will rma board
thanks again
Thanks for advice chaps running 4.5ghz now on adaptive voltage and it's all stable llc did the trick appreciate the help with my new Intel adventure
And the board hasn't made noise since I have the voltage under control but if the whine returns will rma the board
Thank again
Not good quality for a £309 motherboard but thanks thought it was in that area
1 core is just flat out in speed fan and that's when whine starts but I'm just idle on desktop task manager shows no programs using anything all seems odd
Surely it's not normal to whine I'm new to Intel but doesn't seem right lol
I just changed plc and it made no difference still pegged at 1.4v understreas
It's on auto currently I'm new to Intel coming from 8350
Mine has 8 levels instead on high low etc like and I guess 8 being extreme?
Also have a coil whine noise coming from cpu socket area any ideas can't find much on the google
I know the cpu doesn't have coils but it's that noise...
hi guys just got a 6700k and while overclocking on my asus formula 8 i set manual voltage and the 1.29v but under load (stress test) it goes to 1.4 regardless of what i set in bios any ideas
cheers
Well I bit the bullet and brought a i7 6700k
Gtx 1080
16gb ddr4
And the Asus maximus formula 8
And boy it seems night and day over my 8350
Thanks all for advice
Thanks for the info guys I know the 8350 is showing it's age a upgrade has been on the cards for a long while
Like I say apart from project cars I can max all sim racers I play easy but there not to taxing on graphics I racing etc
But when I play other games I do get fps drop in heavy loaded...
so title says i have a 8350 @4.8ghz (outdated sig) with a r9 fury x on custom loop
i have a racing simulator and the system handles most games maxed on my 21.9 34" lg panel 2560 x 1080 75Hz
but i play the odd rpg witcher 3 and i keep getting fps drops into low 50's
i assume the panel...
Thanks for the advice guys just used hw info and msi riva statistics software ran the games I play most and my gpu hitting 100% all the time and my cpu cores are around 65% depending on title so little less and some more on cpu all settings ultra and my fps is 75 then dips to low 60 high 50 in...
No I said in previous comment I'm on custom loop I have a 360mm rad for cpu and another 360 for gpu in parvum l1.0 case complete over kill I know but card hits 45c max temp after hours of gaming cpu @ 4.8ghz only hits 43c on core so not heat related
i mainly play sim racing games which are not the most taxing on my system but when i play the odd other title witcher 3 and few other rpg games i get stutters in all fairness it handles most i throw at it with ease
cpu is @ 4.8ghz (haven't updated sig) and gpu slight overclock on custom loop...
So I'm at a cross road guys
Currently have 8350 and fury x and get issues with spikes in fps
Have a 2560 x 1080 21.9 34" lg um68 monitor 75hz
In major titles struggle to maintain refresh rate at ultra settings
So my question is do I go skylake new cpu mobo. And ram and keep fury x
Or...
Thanks davedree,
there's not much info on it as its so new and never owned a gigabyte board thanks for the info the vrm was a concern for me, have the board now came today and the heat sink looks good from some gigabyte boards I've seen
The tear down of all my hardline has began right...
I plan on a x99 platform build so moving to 1150 is not in my plan
So the AMD board is just to tide me over and as a gaming system only the 8350 does fine for me @ 4.8ghz and my crossfire fury x it maxes anything I play @1440 with ease while streaming as well. Old it may be but the 8350 is...
Thanks for the list
I have been around AMD for years and familiar with most boards have used most of them in client builds
it was the new gigabyte g1 board I'm not sure of as its new on market
Just wondered if anyone knew more was all. From what i have read about it seems ok vrm was...
So my trusty sabertooth 990fx has died on me
Tried all other components in my sons pc and all work
So definitely the board
Now wondering if anyone knows if the new gigabyte g1 gaming 990fx is good for overclocking?
as my 8350 was @ 4.8GHz on sabertooth
Its cheaper hence why I'm...
Hey guys wondering if you can help my gf brought me 2 fury x gpu's and 2 ek water blocks and backplates
Just got back from working away and happy to see them sat there (bless her heart) by upon getting round to looking in Overclockers box the one ek water block has what only can be described...
