    The Pascal GTX 1080 Owners Thread

    SeaHawk X on order to replace 980 Ti SLI, can't hear the baby crying, rig sounds like an X-wing!

    ...yeah all good except it's 4" too small... :rolleyes:

    Samsung S27A750D Displayport not working

    I'd rather not return it on the basis that the image quality really is exceptional for a TN panel (coming from a IPS myself!), I like the overall design including thin bezel and there's limited choice. There's only Iiyama, Asus and Samsung and only the Iiyama is close on price. I think I'm...

    Samsung S27A750D Displayport not working

    Ooops, good spot, I missed that... I'll have to return it then! Was too trigger happy on the old mouse.

    Google this "Startech HDMI or DVI to DisplayPort Active Converter". They're available for £60ish if you shop around.

    Samsung S27A750D Displayport not working

    I either invest in a signal converter from Startech (HDMI® or DVI to DisplayPort® Active Converter) or I upgrade my SLI 460GTX's to something with the same beef & displayport output... Question is, is the converter which can be had for ~£60 if you shop around + second hand cost of 2x GTX...

    Samsung S27A750D Displayport not working

    Hi guys, Finally decided to upgrade my first gen Hazro 24" to dwell in the 120Hz world. Unfortunately my 2x 460's in SLI only have mini HDMI and DVI-D outputs. I've hooked the monitor up HDMI to mini-HDMI and HDMI to DVI-D (with a HDMI cable and suitable adaptors) and it works fine but...

    Asus P8P67 Update!!!

    Be sure to disconnect any other input devices such as gamepads.

    Asus P8P67 Pro - NH-D14 Fan Control

    Somewhat dissappointing indeed. I'm going to hook them up to my spare Lian-Li fan throttler on the backplate. Might try swapping over the chassis fans over to the cpu fans, though I pressume the feedback loop is controlled by mobo temp for the chassis fans.

    i7 2600k Sandybridge may be dieing...

    Nope you need to define the values, there is a question mark over auto settings.

    i7 2600k Sandybridge may be dieing...

    Ok boys, just got back from work, was a long day. PC still happily running Prime at 4.5GHz, thats 16 hours, satisfies my stability quibble. :) Definitely agree on Speedstep, Turbo ratio and DRAM speeds not working right! Hopefully BIOS will sort that.

    ASUS P8P67 PRO owners - what BIOS version did yours come with

    Just a quick update to report my stability issues seem to be resolved. It appears my problem is associated with memory compatibility on the board. Even though it is on the QVL, it isn't supported, certainly not at the full speed. See my post 31 in this other thread...

    i7 2600k Sandybridge may be dieing...

    Good to know. Hopefully system will still be running when I get home. If so, can conclude that CPU is ok and it is a memory compatibility issue. Now I know we are barking up the right tree, I will focus my investigations on memtests at different speeds, timings and voltages. Certainly RAM...

    i7 2600k Sandybridge may be dieing...

    Fully agreed. Chinese wispers and forum'itis where people are suddenly experts on processor micro-architecture can yield a damaging image. The initial impression from the events was that the CPU was degrading, as the crashes appeared more frequent, though this may have just been random. My...

    i7 2600k Sandybridge may be dieing...

    Unlikely I think. This adds the option for internal PLL over voltage and is disabled by default. It's to help in extreme overclocking. In all my testing the 1053 bios has been the most stable.

    I don't seem to have QPI VTT voltage in the Asus P67 Pro BIOS?

    i7 2600k Sandybridge may be dieing...

    Ok Gibbo, I'll leave the RAM as is and then start bumping the CPU up to 4.6GHz. Thanks for the help. We'll have to wait and see how things develop from the RAM perspective.

    i7 2600k Sandybridge may be dieing...

    Gibbo, running at 1600MHz, 9 9 9 28 and fixed Turbo ratio at x38, seems to be running ok at the mo, will leave it running over night. On this basis, what is the fastest memory that works?

    i7 2600k Sandybridge may be dieing...

    Hey Gibbo, Thanks for the prompt response. Well I'm running Prime as I type this, everything on Auto except the Turbo multiplier on x42. Running 4200GHz what appers to be stable. Perhaps it is the RAM being incompatible with the board. I'm going to do some more tests. Which RAM do...
