I just switched everything back to AUTO, except QPI/VTT and CPU voltage. And I'm running prime atm, see how it goes...

And what I notice is, It's auto set the DDR voltage to 1.79v

I got the QPI/VTT voltage at 1.3v... and you see, the gap between them is 0.49

Auto sync...? :wtf:

i have OCD and ADHD.

my OCD makes me need to have things matching and i have to repeat processes an even number of times.

i also need to wash my hands and keep everything i own super clean and mint. something you'll notice if you buy things from me.

as for the ADHD.... i cant ever concentrate on one thing for more than a very short period of time. BUT... i can remember a TON of shit that happens in a very short period of time.

one if the best things about ADHD is the fact that i can think about 10000 things at once and actually process thoughts 20x faster than other ppl.

do a search on threads made by me here on TPU. at any given time im managing posts in all of 20 threads. look at my thread on good deals.... i manage to search though 12 forums, 8 retail sites, and a few other places in a matter of minutes when i get asked to look for something.


alot of the shit i post is covered in several threads but its because i combine things at once.

someone in the gtx thread will ask me to do something gtx related but at the same time i'll be running a physx related test for my physx thread along with a i7/x58 problem im trouble shooting and testing some new cooling shit i have for my machine/projects thread.

all this shit plays out in my head perfectly fine and smooth but it looks like a total fucking mess to someone who doesnt see things the same speed as i do.

along with computer shit i also do cell phones, computer repairs, car audio, home theater installs, electronics, take care of a kid, go to college to be an engineer, and 100s of other things i manage all at once.

its a mess but its very clear to me.

yeah....

major CON....

i get in the car.... drive for an hour....

and i feel lost even though i know exactly where i am. i just dont really remember why i needed to be there.

then i fuck around for a bit
and then remember but its too late or im just too lazy now that i've gone and had some fun.

its very hard to focus on shit after driving. i love driving but damn... it kills me for the rest of the day.
