They are all quiet - only got the EVGA to 4,000 plus using Precision, didn't mess about with the other two. The EVGA doesn't even hit 50 percent when stressed.
I got my hands on the GTX 970 MSI, a G1 and an EVGA SC ACX 2.0 over the last few days.
ALL 3 have coil whine, seemingly at a very similar point, and the higher the frame rate the worse it gets. Limiting to 60 fps makes it all but disappear.
Have settled on the EVGA purely based on the G1...
I do like the idea of the larger cooler/fans anyway, but then it becomes H110 vs the Kraken X61 - not really bothered about price - one appears uncomplicated (H110) and the other lots of gimmicky stuff I may or may not use/like (variable pump speed, led illumination etc.)..
Anyone tried both...
AIO Cooler Advice for 4790k
I have just built my new PC and am running it with my old GPU and the stock cooler on the 4790k, so am just juggling with which GTX 970 variant to buy and my bigger dilemma - which AIO water cooling option to go for.
Out of the H100i, H110 and the Kraken X61 I am...
Good offer, however getting the registration form to do anything other than fail is another kettle of fish all together!
Tried it on every PC and device I have with various browsers... :(
Thanks for the contributions, and especially the last link which is a cracking enticement - persuaded me to go ahead and order the UD3H-BK.
Looking forward to tomorrow's delivery now...
Good morning
I have been dwelling long and hard on the specs that I want for a new PC.
I will predominently be using it for general home/office stuff and Adobe CS work, but my son who is a 16 year old avid gamer visits regularly and will use the PC for various games from WoW to BF4.
I...
Wunkley, I had a similar problem severak years ago with an earlier generation of an Nvidia card and OCUK and EVGA tested it and both concluded that there was no problem with the card.
It turns out the the card (a brand new 8800GTX) was working fine, but the Geil ram I had installed was set...
Well having tried to order it for Saturday delivery that option isn't available, which kinda sucks and no obvious explanation!
Have ordered it any (27" AOC and a Graphics Card), will see if I can collect Saturday if not will cancel.
EDIT: Oddly, trying the same order second time round, it...
If I order now (ie. the shop has closed) does that mean DPD Next Day will be tomorrow because the warehouse is still dealing with orders or Monday?
Need my order by Saturday for my lad's birthday so may just have to bite the bullet and pay for Saturday delivery
In my horror wasn't thinking straight. Guess if I attach the OS drive to another PC, check no files are blue then try to reboot from it is the sensible way to go.
Fingers crossed and thanks for bringing me back to reality.:D:D
WTF?!?!?!
Just tried to awaken one of my PC's from hibernation... the PC Posts OK but then I get the message:
"VLNYX is compressed
Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart"
I have never seen this before and neither it seems has Google!
Restarting send me in a never ending circle back to...
Definitely not that I am afraid.
having tried for a few hours now to sort this, it seems that it is definitely a problem with this W7 PC:
1. I can see all the other PC's on the network except the server.
2. I can ping the server from the PC no problem.
3. I cannot access any of the...
I have 5 PC's at home all running Win7.
I also have an HP Proliant Microserver.
4 PC's see the microserver absolutely fine under networks in explorer, but one does not see it at all. The PC can ping it fine and also find the IP no problem at all, but it will not show in explorer.
If I...
Has anyone tried the WHS 2011 RC yet on the microserver without setting it up for an unattended install?
I see on Microsoft Connect they are suggesting they have adjusted the 1.4Gz processor limit flexibility following complaints about the AMD Neo being excluded but more than powerful enough...
