at least theyre detachable I suppose.

GTX 660 ti - Child Edition come on, drop the whole paint thing, its lame. I mean the overkill heatsinks are overkill but they're bearable at least.

the main let down for me personally with the 660Ti is the 192bit bus - its not a huge issue with current games but when i buy graphics cards i like them to last as long as possible to play games in the years to come. This is why I am personally debating between Asus DC2/Gigabyte windforce...

also, you probably should check your tesselation settings in CCC, makign sure its not switched to something crazy like 64x, might as well leave it on amd optimised if its not already. while ur there check ur AA settings, you may have selected edge detect or something similar, change it to box...

This, without any question :) I WANT x2

Not sure, but i'd probably even wait till you have the 600+W decent brand named PSU before overclocking the cpu. Not too much point in stressing that PSU out until the juice is clean and has plenty to go around.

Nice to see theyve acbieved this with 2 cores enabled rather than the usual single active cpre oc feat. Good shit, needed an ass load of volts though! Haha

regarding this, heres a quick video showing what these lines look like. hitting "reset" in MSI AB doesn't stop this behaviour, neither does closing MSI AB completely...yet a restart will clear the issue. I can then open MSI AB and browse the net no problem, but as soon as Iapply my OC profile...

RE5 saw a reasonable boost also :)

and heres the latest 3dmark 11 :)

heres my latest Vantage run with gpus now clocked at 950/1175 Funny thing tho, I used to run these clocks with the amd system and have no issue what so ever. While this is benching fine and sees so far stable, while browsing, or even the desktop...when moving the mouse or just every...

got a couple of comparison benchies for ya from my old system. All of the below 3570k runs were done at 4.6Ghz :) AMD@3.6 3dmark11 3570K@4.6 3dmark11 also, broke 28K in vantage P score, still havent upped the gpus yet :) AMD run with a default heaven run 3570K run - not...

Ok so here's my update. currently have 4.6Ghz stable @1.320v I tried to get 4.7Ghz but it wasn't stable even with 1.360v so thought i'd hold off on that one for now. but 4.6 is stable at 1.320v One thing I did notice when trying to get 4.7 stable was that the voltage in cpu-z was...

the tweaking has started :) ive gone to bios and changed the voltage to manual ( i was told to put it on manual while im sussing out my max oc and then once im satisfied change it to offset) so here i am at roughly the same oc, but this was achieved via the bios where i haven't moved the...

Thanks man! Much appreciated. Still not sure what ill do for a gpu upgrade yet, depends on how soon i get the funds :) thinking either 7950 crossfire or 660ti sli at this stage with current pricing. Ideally? If i could id got for 670 sli so lets hope theres more price cuts
