Yeah i'm only going to run them at stock, so i'll undervolt them as much as I can

The previous owner has already transferred ownership to me for warranty purposes Awesome.

That's what i said when i got mine after selling my 7990. I'll only run them stock i said. I'll undervolt them i said. They'll be more than fast enough i said. Then i realised there is no temp difference due to undervolting (maybe 1c at most) between running stock (975/1250) undervolted and running overclocked (1050/1250) undervolted.

That's nice of him. Three year warranty with MSI as well.

 

[humbug]

Today has been fantastic, 2 crashes (hard locks) of BF4.exe resulting in a white screen with audio repeat on. Also this little gem has reared its ugly head again:

Mr Floaty gun and his refusal to change weapons. Worth noting shortly after this screen shot my chap randomly exploded and caused a TK (i'm not even joking!!).

Its not just me then? i had that last night, i though it might be my CPU over heating as i have it 'very' overclocked again, 1.52 volts running on it and this GPU does kick out more heat than the 7870XT did.

Just happened a third time, no driver errors or bsods, process hangs until I manually kill it.

Sounds like we have another bug on our hands

You need to play with people in BF4, otherwise it sucks large donkey ****

I am getting my two 290s under water (as they don't seem to be selling on the MM) and boy do they need it

Tuesday I think.

No chance My motherboard doesn't support it and my case isn't big enough.
Plus, uh, I'm running 1920x1080

Look at my results above. 87C on both gpu's and still spitting out 195FPS at 1080P Ultra and 165FPS at 1440P ultra. Who needs water cooling?

I did just peel my testicles off my leather chair though.

Lol. You should at least do a few bench runs of Firestrike and what not. It would be rude not to.

It also did it to me on Metro, i was standing by the turnstiles outside entrance on B with a Pecheneg blasting through the two doors ripping anything trying to get through apart

It didn't seem to like that after a little while and Hardlocked > White Screen

Are you getting new GPUs, Fogo?

 

[thefogo]

Are you getting new GPUs, Fogo?

Yeah I managed to swipe two MSI 290 BF4 Editions for £220 each.

 

[humbug]

Aren't they reference?

I thought they were 290X cards weren't they?

They are. He's joining me on the poverty line!

 

[thefogo]

Yep

I thought they were 290X cards weren't they?

Nah, the X's were £50 more each and I didn't know the warranty status, so I went for the peasants instead.

Ahh well not much difference anyway.

What happening to the old card?

Now we're Red Radeon Reference brothers. Break out the red pom poms. Feel free to steal my sig as well.

Ah yes that poverty line , well, i do have an AIB cooler one, but you have two 290's, given the choice i will take 2 reference over one AIB, no matter how good the cooler on the AIB.

I guess I'll have to try and shift it. I'll probably put it on the MM.

Do I get free earplugs for joining the crew?
