Furmark really stresses video cards. I am assuming that you have the stock cooler on the card also. Considering that, 80C under load in Furmark is actually a very good temperature. A lot of video cards actually run a few degrees hotter than that because Furmark is so intensive.
So I...
Hello.
Does anyone encounter stuttering in games running on your GTX690? I know that it runs in SLI but since it is a single card solution, is it still susceptible to stuttering?
Definitely the Corsair 800. I have this case. It was pricey but definitely worth it. I do not see having to purchase another case for the next 10 years.
I got the 690 and I don't regret it at all. You never have to worry if this card will be able to play the most advanced games at the highest settings. It does cost but you get what you pay for.
I'm betting Crysis 3 will need GTX690's in SLI for max settings and smooth gameplay.
I remember Crysis 1 and that my two GTX8800's in SLI (which was top of the line at the time) would be brought down to their knees with max settings.
It depends on your budget and what you want to do.
If you only have the money for a single GTX680 but want to go SLI when the funds are available, then no on the 690.
If you are going to go SLI from the start and have the funds, the 690 is a better way to go than 2 680's. It is only a...
The tablet may not charge at all. Some tablets will detect if there is insufficient power available to charge and so to avoid any damage will refuse to charge.
I am running Windows 7 as my primary OS. (I can't stand how Windows 8 looks!)
Anyway, the problem I have is that randomly my gadgets on my desktop will all crash for no reason at all. Everything else is fine and windows keeps running. Why is this? Anyone else encounter this problem and...
Bean using the onboard RealTek HD on the last several motherboards and couldn't be happier.
I am no audiophile so I may be missing something, but I have not noticed any difference in sound quality since I stopped using a Sound Blaster add in card.
Assuming the heatsink is seated and the TIM is not too thick, those temperatures under load seem to be a bit high.
Intel uses a relatively thick TIM between the heat spreader and the actual chip. If it is too thick, the CPU will run hotter than it should. And some people have had this...
Works very nicely. My previous system was a power hog. I had Tri-SLI 580's with an i7 920 and I think I was maxing out my 1200 watt power supply.
My current system with Ivy Bridge, 580, and 690 maxes out at 450 watts.
