  1. Yes it does https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce_10_series 181 GFLOPS
  2. Yeah that should be fine. Use electrical tape if you have it though.
  3. Yes you can. I've done it many times just make sure the cut wires can't touch anything.
  4. Is it just specifically this video, which is only a trailer, or are there others?
  5. I have the same card, it idles at 40-50c usually (41c right now). Before you consider RMA try the usual stuff such as driver reinstalls and fan placements etc.
  6. Origin's speed is always wrong. I've always wondered if it includes disk activity in its speed rating since it will be unpacking the files as they're downloaded.
  7. I use a 980ti @4K and have no problems. Most of the games i play are maxed out (with lowered AA) pushing 40-60FPS. Examples include: Assetto Corsa, Just Cause 3, Dirt Rally, GTA 5 and Fallout 4, although I run slightly lowered details for some things on Fallout. It's surprising how much easier to run games become when you turn down AA since you don't need it as much at 4K.
  8. You can get an Nvidia Shield K1 for £150 now.
  9. I've heard nothing but good reports apart from some issues on the AMD side for some people.
  10. I have a Dell P2415Q and love it. I don't notice any input lag or ghosting. Not sure if 24" would be big enough for you though.
  11. Why don't you actually just run memtest instead of just guessing it. You have the tools so use them.
  12. 5820K It's actually a few quid cheaper in the UK than the 6700K for some apparent reason.
  13. You simply cannot use settings from a guide. Guides should be used to learn how to overclock and nothing more. You will have to experiment with different voltages and clock speeds yourself.
  14. It's not throttling and it's not overheating. The overclock is unstable. I highly suggest you do not use the EZ tuning Wizard and instead research how to overclock manually first.
  15. I would check to make sure those settings actually applied. Sometimes when an OC is unstable to the BIOS will set the multiplier back to stock.
  16. Probably down to the fact the fan was blowing on absolutely nothing at all. You probably fried the VRM's.
  17. The MSI 970 Gaming is one of the newer AM3+ boards around with an updated feature set. If you can find an ASUS M5A99x EVO R2.0 in your budget I can also recommend that. It's difficult for me to find you boards since i'm based in the UK but I'll do my best to help. I would not downgrade to the 6300 as that will be create a bottleneck.
  18. I don't know where the motherboard temp sensor would be but on every board i have owned they have always been around that mark. Either way the CPU power delivery area needs to be heatsinked for the 8 core CPU's other wise it will overheat. I have seen it time and time again where people have bought boards just like yours who have had the same issue or the board straight up burning out because of it. I highly suggest you buy an AM3+ motherboard with decent heatsinks around the CPU VRM area.
  19. It will be your motherboard overheating. It is not designed for 8 core CPU's and will throttle the CPU to protect itself.
  20. I had the same experience too. I've had nothing but trouble with them, hence why I switched to Wi-Fi.
  21. This feature has been a thing for a while now. There are also much better quality videos out there. Edit: Like this one here: I have no idea how he did the in game stuff though.
  22. You might as well try it as that's what they're all about.
