the dc2 non top version and it only worked once, i restarted and the voltages were locked once again which kinda sucks but at least it shows that it is possible.

mine actually were i got ti up to 1300mhz core 1500mhz vram and hwmonitor reported the voltage being what i set it to in gpu tweak and i know my gpu doesnt even go near 1300 on stock it freezes after 1180-1200

i had it working not for very long but it did work voltages were unlocked and adjusting but then after restart it went back to not working

also starts artifacting after 1240mhz regardless of voltage i guess if you want to overclock this card between reports and experience id say its a total dud and i had one successful startup where voltage change was possible now its back to being locked again oh well flashing back to the DC2T...

ok new problem got the new bios working but it now only detects the monitor on dvi 2 so it now will only support 1 monitor .......... any ideas? lol

ok so i downloaded the unlocked bios from the vga database http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/113309/Asus.HD7970.3072.120104.html tried to flash it but once its flashed the card no longer shows anything on the display via dvi port and my voltage on stock is locked to a max of 1.060v which...

yes i think i will be getting some 2200+ rpm fans for the case and maybe 2 3000-4000rpm's for the h60 :D also any ideas for the max safe voltage on the m5a97 evo's cpu/nb?

well at 12v 1.70a each it would have to be a pretty good one :D and no not really gaming the cpu never goes over 44c and gpu's never over 70c and motherboard never over about 32c i leave hwmonitor running 24/7 so i can keep track of temps

1 but i was going to put a 2nd on it i just am having a hard time finding one with equal speed and size i have a few 10,000rpm delta fans laying around but those are loud as hell and are only 80mm and i dont have the money atm for new fans (although i want to replace just about every one in the...

my fx-4100 has been over 60c several times once jumped to 77c during a prime95 test ( i quickly stopped it of course )

yes that does make sense it would be nice if the was a way to calculate your cpu's max temp maybe in future cpu's they will build something in to allow on the fly current max temp and tdp detection :D

that sounds good thank you :D i was thinking about this for awhile since everyone was saying 55 yet they only say this because that was the safe temp for the last gen cpu's which makes no sense really seeing as these are supposed to be all new and better for overclocking you would think the safe...

so as long as its under 71c at core lvl theres no need to worry? (i.e 65c in prime is ok) i was wanting to try for 5ghz just to see it it would run stable but i stopped at 4.6ghz as it was getting close to 55c and i didnt want to go over that with it being the safe temp

ive read all kinds of things on the temps some say 50c some say 55c some say 65c some just say 90c so what are the real ok temps for the fx-4100? just the if it hits it for a few seconds its ok (like with prime95 testing for example) also i have been going by 55c anyone know some good guides...

this is completely awesome :D so do any of these codes apply to amd cpu's aswell or are they completely intel/chipset specific?
