    I installed the ssd in my computer 2 days ago. When I boot from my hdd I can overclock to 860mhz(Hd 6950) without any artifacts in game or in windows 7. Although when I boot from my ssd(samsung 840) and attempt to overclock to 860 the screen gets glitchy and I have to restart. Are ssd's known...

    Which SSD is better?

    Darn amazon couldn't cancel the order of the 840 ssd anymore. Hopefully its not that much of a difference. And thanks again for all the replies

    Which SSD is better?

    Thanks for the reply. And another question: The samsung 840 has slower max read/write in mb/s. Does that matter?

    http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009NHAF06/?tag=tec06d-20 http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007R1FH3K/?tag=tec06d-20 Do you know which SSD is better, as in reliability, speed, and life span? I am having a troubling time comparing them.

    How to reset a pci-e slot for hd 6950.

    When I switched the card the first time from the first pci-e slot to the second one I had to install new drivers for the card so I thought they had the driver or something. And I will try to blow it with air.

    Wait for dx12?

    Is it worth getting another hd 6950 before directx12 comes out?

    Voltage increase problems

    Thank you so much! After you said that I did notice that they had a little scroll bar. What is a decent overclock setting with voltage and clocks for a 6950 with 1408 shaders? I have tried enabling 6970 shaders and flashing but it has not worked.

    Voltage increase problems

    Here is the one that I purchased: SAPPHIRE 11188-22-20G Radeon HD 6950 2GB 256-bit G... It seems that all the other 6950's are easier to overclock than this overclock edition one.

    Voltage increase problems

    When i try to increase the voltage of my hd 6950 via gpu tool it says my graphics card does not support voltage increase. Is there any way to force it to increase voltage? Like flashing a bios or something. Thanks

    Hd 6950 good enough?

    What resolution are you playing at?

    Hd 6950 good enough?

    Why not play bf3 on ultra with maxed out AA/AF? On that I get 50-60 fps.
