I'm trying to create a dos gaming rig, with a Pentium 75 and 32mb of ram. It has a CD-ROM but doesn't support cd booting, is there any way to get Windows 95 CD to boot? I have MS-DOS 6.22 floppies but I don't think the system likes the 120gb hard drive I threw in there and refuses to boot after installation lol

You must have never met my grandmother. She literally takes 10 photos of everything and has been doing so for the last 14 years. This adds up to multiple terabytes of photos

Yeah, you pretty much can't get any safer than cloud storage. Failing that, you can setup a raid array with some redundancy I suppose?

Hey all! I have an Intel Xeon 1231v3 which has a base clock of 3.4GHz and a 1 core boost of 3.8GHz. This chip is essentially an under-clocked Core i7 4790, with 4 cores and 8 threads. I like it a lot, but it would be great to achieve a few extra MHz from it. Does anybody have any advice? I have set the multiplier to 38 (the highest it will go I believe) from the standard 34, and changed the bus speed to 103MHz. This has netted me a nice little boost from 3.6GHz all core boost to 3.9GHz, which is great, I'm happy. I've done some stress tests and used it for about 15 minutes and it appears to be stable. Is there any long term issues with this approach that I should be aware of?

Under furmark which is probably similar to mining the FE card hits about 83 degrees, at stock speeds. I fear for my 390X when it gets past 85 degrees sometimes lol

I wouldn't want my $600 card running at 83 degrees for 8-12 hours a day. Each to their own though.

Nvidia cards aren't that great at mining, and it will wear out your card running it 100%, especially if it is indeed a reference model.

Nevermind - Bios update solved it.

Hey all, I've just built a PC using an old (but gold) i5 2500k and an MSI z77 motherboard. Tested with integrated graphics all works fine, when I install my 780Ti I get a 'B2' in the bottom right hand corner which I assume is some sort of error message. 30 seconds later it boots into windows just fine. It's very odd and the manual does not mention it, at least I believe it doesn't. Anybody know what's up?

Scratch that, it started artifacting again. Fuck. Went +40 voltage and the whole thing crashed really dramatically. Whoops haha. Well, 1050Mhz isn't all that bad anyway considering it is stock for a 290X. It may just be the memory clock because changing that does a lot.

Well I got it to run nicely with +13 voltage on MSI afterburner. That may have been it.

I have no front fans. Only rear fans, so that could be it. You might think I'm crazy but it's because I'm using a modded Powermac G5 case which is rather hard to mount fans on.

Thermals are about what you'd expect for a 390X. Around 60-70 degrees on load with 80% fan. It's worth noting the airflow in my case is sub par, but not so bad to impact performance.

15.3 the latest? I'd slightly worried about the whole RMA thing because I brought this while I was in the USA as it was a good deal, then took it back to the UK. Would that invalidate it at all ?

So a few months ago I got a 390X of the MSI variety. And lately it has been acting up a bit. I first noticed it in GTA but also other games after that there was some artifacting. It seems to work if I dial back the clockspeed to 1052MHz and the mem clock to 1489, but isn't this a bit unusual? This card has never been overclocked. I was going to try and overclock it to 1120 or something but no hope now I guess haha
