thanks, I see it seems better to just leave on stock bios or finding a mining bios, is there a section with the best option for the XFX dual fan version of Vega 56?

Hey guys, been out of the loop quite a while but a long time member but use to spend most of my time over at overclockers.com I have a XFX Vega 56 RX-VEGALDFF6 double dissipation two fan card. I would like to optimize this card for mining and am wondering if first the heatsink should be...

my GB X570 wifi itx has 2 m.2 nvme and one is 4.0, the only thing it does not have is a front usb 3.2 C header but has on rear, board rocks

WTB: AMD X4 Black Edition 940 or 955 As stated I am looking for a BE940 or 955 AM3 cpu Please take account what these should be valued at used. Be nice if you could also tell results overclocked, I am not looking for cherry........ I have lots of heat and ebay feedback and have done...

looks as though promo code is no good any longer, missed this one great deal for those who bought, 10pm and a day late LOL here on the west coast......... More deals to come I am sure but I like NV gtx275 alot more if it would only droip to this type of price lol.

A single higher end gpu has and will always be better overall than 2x lower end models in sli, not necessarily in performance but "overall" -GTX 260 lower power consumption than 2x8800gts in sli, less noise, less heat -you can find a used 260 gtx for a decent price -newer technology, more...

wait and get a gtx260, pass on the sli option imho

I agree I have a BFG core 192 and I have not even needed to overclock it yet, plays everything with my settings I like on 24" fine, however I don't play Crysis but it will play it fine just not maxxed but for the cost, performance is great I will hold it for another 6 mths then upgrade to...

I am using Scythe Ninja 2 CPU Cooler it somes in 2nd to the Thermalright 120 not gonna find much better to make a big enough difference. REal Temp I am using is latest version from the link you threw up. Chip is a B3 TJ Max is set to 100, I am not really worried about longevity of the chip as...

Well I ran Real Temp prog vs Core temp and I see a big diff on my DFI P35 T2RS, all of a sudden after 6 hrs Orthos/prime 25.7 I am seeing max load temps rangin from 58-67 dependent on the core I plan to run a new bios shortly as I am on 0818 and then see what happens when I push for 3.4-3.5...

I am not too worried about the load temps I saw as I question how accurate core temp is anyways within windows, any other progs that one can recommend. The heatsink I am using is second to the Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme in tests/reviews I have found , you really are not gonna do much better...

I have a P182 case w a Xeon 3220 B3 currently running 8x400 for 3.2 @ 1.29~v in windows, it is paired to 2x2gb Crucial Ballistix epp PC8000 and a GTX 260, the system I am guessing will play anything I throw at it I just have not had lots of time to game it up, but have started Far Cry 2. I ran...
