    PC won't start, PWR_SW LED pulsing

    It is a Seasonic SS-500HT and I'm running a i5 4690K, asus z-87 pro and a 780 Ti but two points : It does not start at all, but in general, for all the PSU problems I faced, I could see the fans moving even if it stopped 5 sec after My friend PSU is kinda crappy (a generic 400W) and it worked...

    PC won't start, PWR_SW LED pulsing

    I think it is an Asrock but I don't remember the exact ref. I used the paperclip method and tested my PSU with a multimeter and it's giving rock solid 3,3V, 5V and 12V ..

    PC won't start, PWR_SW LED pulsing

    Hello, Since yesterday my computer suddenly don't start. When looking on the motherboard (an asus z87 pro), I can see the LED/button PWR_SW has not a straight light, it is not blinking but something like a pulse : I've been testing with a friend PSU and my mobo started BUT I tried my PSU on...

    Sapphire Hd5850, Is bios flash worth it ?

    Hello, I have a non ref HD5850 I'm able to overclock it, and even changing voltage ONLY with Sapphire TRIXX originaly designed for 6X00 series. But as it is a non ref PCB, is a bios flash possible to unlock voltage, and keep the OC in the chip ?

    OCZ Blade ST 1600Mhz don't want to go over 1616Mhz :O

    I am so offended of the many disadvantages of c2 :( 8-8-8-24 1T is not stable as well.. At least I might feel lucky being able to get a 3.9Ghz/1.5V oc with a c2

    OCZ Blade ST 1600Mhz don't want to go over 1616Mhz :O

    I'm at 8-8-8-24 1T instead of 7-8-8-26 1T AND I changed tRFC 90ns to 110ns and tRC 27 to 32 (because I read tRC is ideally tRAS+ tRP) It seems 1624 is stable at stock voltage ! I'm only at 30min prime blend but in general errors were before 5 mins

    I don't think 6-9-6-24 will be more stable :D

    OCZ Blade ST 1600Mhz don't want to go over 1616Mhz :O

    Hmm 7-9-8-24 at 1640Mhz seems more stable as prime doesn't return errors ftm. Anyway when I'm benching my ram, results in read, copy, write at 7-8-8-24 1600 are quite the same as 7-9-8-24 1640. Is the second option preferable as it lets me play a little more with the HT?

    OCZ Blade ST 1600Mhz don't want to go over 1616Mhz :O

    Well, with the HT at 205Mhz, if I put my ram at 6.66x to be sure it is not the cause, I can prime blend during 8 hours. Then, when I get errors at 8x I effectively conclude it is the ram fault. Effectively it is 1640 and not 1620: 205*8

    7-9-7-24 1T @1.71V at 1620Mhz is not prime stable :S

    OCZ Blade ST 1600Mhz don't want to go over 1616Mhz :O

    Hm I don't really understand the problem. For the revision, I don't know :D and the manuf date is last january, dimms are brand new and coming from Taiwan after a RMA. I don't think so because I'm currently prime stable with a 2600Mhz CPU-NB and 3700Mhz CPU with my ram at 1600. Furthermore...

    OCZ Blade ST 1600Mhz don't want to go over 1616Mhz :O

    When saying lowering I effectively wanted to say tightening, being french, English can be an obstacle in technical language :p I can understand chips are different but i could not imagine that puting the fsb at 203 instead of 200 might make the ram unstable ..

    OCZ Blade ST 1600Mhz don't want to go over 1616Mhz :O

    Yes i read this guide and my ram is not listed :( I'm becoming crazy, only 16Mhz of overclocking is unbelievable. Do you think that lowering timings might be useful ?

    OCZ Blade ST 1600Mhz don't want to go over 1616Mhz :O

    Well as I said i saw someone going to 6-7-6-21 1600 at 1.71V On another topic I can read :"OCZ Blade ST with Elpida BBSE IC's that can reach 1600 6-7-6 easily" And effectively Elpida BBSE seems to be a terrifying chip. Even at 1.71V I can't be prime stable at 7-7-7-24 1600Mhz
