Hi guys. After a long long time I'm really excited to finally have moved back to an AMD system. I used to have an Intel i7-4930k @ 4.4 GHz for 5 years. Since The first Core2Duos hit the market I've not used an AMD system as my daily system, so I'm super excited and really happy about finally...

Hello everybody, For the past few weeks I have been googling and reading all kinds of reviews on what to do. My current system is still running quite well, considering I've had it since 2013. I put a lot of money into it, trying to make it as perfect as I could so it would look great and have...

Hi guys, I'm back for a bit, as I decided to us F@H to stresstest and heat-test my graphic card. It's an EVGA GTX1080 FE with EK-WaterBlock and EK-Backplate installed, so the temperature ought not to be the problem. I saw so far max 41°C in games. I don't expect it to be much higher in F@H...

Hey guys, I've been looking for the best thread to post my question in, and I guess I couldn't find a better alternative than this. Oddly enough it seems like a no-brainer, yet I must say that I'm quite confused. I have been using Razor mice for the better part of two decades if I'm not...

Hey guys, I don't know why, but I was fortunate enough to receive 3 licenses for the Beta test run of "The Crew - Wild Run". The game launch will be in the middle of November but Beta-testing started the day before yesterday. I gave away one license to a friend of mine who wanted to give it a...

Hi guys, I've been running Windows 7 64bit Ultimate since I bought my computer in December of 2014. Now I was pretty anxious to switch to Windows 10 for many reasons. One of which was my SSD was getting to small and I decided to add a small new one, just for the OS and keep the "old" 500 GB...

Hi guys. I've been googling for a while to find out whether or not I could overclock a Xeon processor on my motherboard. Currently I have 4930k installed and I have the system water cooled. The System is now a little over a year old and I want to improve it a little bit. The graphic card...

Hey guys. I just want to make sure something, and thought I would ask first, before I spend too much time wasting my energy. It's about my gaming rig. i decided to blow 250 Euro and buy myself another 16 GB kit from Corsair. I have now two 16 GB DDR3-2400 MHz Dominator Platinum sets...

Hi guys. I build my computer back in January, and I am really really happy with it. Since I got the 4k monitor just a few weeks back, I see that my 3x 290Xs suffer from time to time. Although it's not really necessary I thought I would overclock them, especially because I think my cooling can...

Hi guys. I seem to not be able to get the newest AMD driver running and I was curious whether anyone else has the same problem as me. I'm running 3x PowerColor R9 290X LCS graphic cards with Windows 7 64bit. http://www.3dmark.com/fs/2910838 This should give all the hardware and performance...

Hey guys. Right now I don't have a monitor, apart from the one I use for the folding farm. I intend on purchasing one though. Especially if I can find the right one for the right price. If I cannot I will wait. The new monitor ought to be a secondary monitor for my MacBook Pro until I get my...

Hey guys. I have a folding farm as some of you might know. You can find some specs in the signature. If that's not enough, here: I have an old HD4870 still in the house and I was thinking of trying to get this to work. I figure if it would work with the proper driver, I could test 3DMark...

Hey guys. As some may have seen in the LC-Topic, I intend on building myself a new little fully liquid cooled system. The last project of this magnitude was my "me-monstro"-build which two and a half years ago was pretty much the most ideal system. I still regret a bit getting rid of this...

Hey guys, I didn't know where else to post, but I have a setting problem I'm hoping can be fixed quickly. Every few minutes (and it must be like 2 to 5 Minutes) I get logged off from the OC3D forums. This is very annoying because it takes me sometimes longer to write a post, and then it would...

Hey guys. I intend on building myself a new computer, which ought to be adjustable to coming hardware. The idea is that the case and cooling would remain somewhat the same and the hardware would change over time. First and foremost: I am an extreme enthusiast when it comes to computer...
