Hey guys, I'm buying a new 240/256GB SSD to replace my 2-yr old 120GB OCZ Vertex 2. I'm doing this mostly for the storage factor and partly for a performance increase. I trust OCZ as my Vertex 2 has been working perfectly for 2 years now. Going through a search for SATA 3 SSDs on newegg I...
I currently have an ocz vertex 2 running perfect after 2 years of use and now I'm wanting to upgrade to a new SATA 3 SSD. I've so far looked at 3 different ones:
Vertex 3: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227707
Vertex 4: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227792...
I was able to get it to 1866mhz with:
CL: 10
tRC : 10
tRP: 10
tRAS: 30
I'm not exactly sure on how to set the timings. Do you edit each one to see how low it will go starting with CL? I couldn't get my clock speed any higher, so 1866mhz was my fastest. I found the max clock speed by setting...
I recently bought this GSkill ram for my updated system and I'm wondering about something.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231314
When I put it in my motherboard I went in the tweaker settings and saw 7-8-7-20 at 1333mhz. On the box it says 9-9-9-24 1600mhz. Is there a...
Can you help me figure out where to find these WHEA errors? I looked in C:\Windows\Logs and couldn't find system. I'll run blend tonight and tell you the results. I plan on doing some gaming today to test my new oc, I play Tera and it's very cpu intensive, used 100% of my i5-760(reason why I...
It was still running when I woke up and I didn't see any error messages or weird stuff on the screen, so I assume that means there were no WHEA errors. When I ended the test it said errors: 0 so I guess I should be fine then. So do you suggest blend over the one that I used even though I...
I ran prime 95 for 9hrs and got a max temp of 85C for the torture test: in place large FFTs. I figured this test would be more demanding than blend so I decided not to do blend, is my thinking on this wrong? I already did memtest86 to find the stability of my ram so I figured blend wouldn't...
I am attempting to find my highest stable overclock for my i5-3570k and I'm wondering if my temperatures are fine. I bought an aftermarket cooler (cooler master 212+). I currently have it set at 4.7ghz and the max temp I find in prime 95 is 85C. What would be the max temp I can get to in...
Thanks all for your thoughts on the matter. About the thermal paste, must have not even looked at the difference column. I don't plan on buying any thermal paste any time soon then. How often should you replace thermal paste on the cpu anyway?
I ended up getting the 212+. I heard reviews of...
I've been looking at buying an aftermarket cooler to cool my cpu when I overclock it. It seems as though most people go to 4.5ghz, so I plan on ocing to that speed. What oc software do most people use to oc their cpu? This would be my first time I ever oc my cpu. Is the stock cooler...
I'm trying to find a gpu for my friend and I've narrowed it down to these two gpus. He plans to overclock the gpu, so whichever gpu is better fully oc is the choice. He runs games at 1920*1080. He is not interested in sli or crossfire, so the better single gpu is the one I want for him...
