Hey Guys, Need your help. I have an ASUS Crosshair IV Formula motherboard and have lost the original backplate which came fitted to the board...along with the mounting bracket. Know where I can get a replacement? There are a few on eBay but not sure which is the right one. Cheers : )

Not 100% this is the right place to post this, anyway... Just downloaded and installed the Crysis 2 demo. Is it me or are the graphics, average ? Compared to Mafia II I just don't see anything good about the graphics in the demo. Maybe the release will be better ?

Hey Guys, really need your input on something. I currently have two 5870s in Crossfire on my AMD system (specs in sig). I'm really not liking the ATI setup and the 5870s are getting old. So I have a few questions... 1. Shall I sell my 5870s and get a 560 ? 2. If I do sell them, where and do I...

Nevermind. MODS: Please delete topic, pleease ? Cheers

I'm a new folder and yeah it's going OK BUT I've been having a slight problem with SMP. The GPUs have been folding fine...really well infact, BUT the SMP has been stuck at that for ages. I don't know how long exactly but a bluddy long time. The GPUs are progressing well, CPU not so. I'm on...

Asus has assisted some extreme overclockers in achieving a new world record score in 3DMark Vantage. It's amazing to note that the Asus DirectCU 580 used in the benching rig was overclocked to a brilliant 1.5GHz! Read more here...

Took me literally around 52 minutes to do the cable management inside the case (including removing the GPUS and hard drives from their respective places). Not a bad try for a first attempt in my personal honest opinion. Apologies for poor quality photos

Unigine Heaven Benchmark v2.1 FPS: 44.5 Scores: 1121 Min FPS: 3.8 Max FPS: 85.6 1. Why is the scores so low ? 2. Why is the Min FPS so low ? I have this installed on an SSD...with a 1090T (AMD) 3.2GHz overclocked to 4.1GHz; 2000MHz NB Frequency; 8GB 1600MHz RAM (8-8-8-20) and...

I have my AMD 1090T overclocked from 3.2GHz to 4.1GHz. What I want to know is: what should I set my northbridge frequency to in the BIOS ?

What do you think of the temps ? Was either going to stop doing the test when temp hit above 65 degress (max safe for 1090T as specified by AMD) or when I got bored...20 minutes and I got bored. This is the best the h50 has peformed on my system as of yet, so i'm thinking maybe the thermal...

Hey Guys... I have had a stable overclock on my 1090T but at 1.45V on the CPU and anything below that I seem to get a BSOD. However, Tom has done a review and got an overclock on something around 1.375 which sounds more reasonable. I've been experimenting and am finally stable but what other...

I am currently using 8GB (2x4GB) OCZ Reaper 1600MHz RAM...if I remove the heatsinks from both DIMMs so I can fit a Noctua NH-D14 to my Asus Crosshair IV Forumula, will the RAM still run at a safe temperature at 1600MHz ? Obviously stress testing will make the RAM hot as it already gets toasty...

Just a brief introduction from me. I'm awful at introductions so you'll have to excuse the poor grammar here. I'm Michael from Northamptonshire, UK. I'm on a whole load of IT forums and this is the only one using IP Board, a beautiful forum script, and so...here I am. That's enough I hope (I...
