Nah that was on a Shadow Rock 2 during the winter, swapped it for an NH-D14 with Fractal Dynamic fans once summer came around to keep temps down
I see. I'm thinking next upgrade I might aswell go for a 240 aio for long term investment and also looks better imo in a system, you can seem more of it too. Noctua is a bad ass cooler though no doubt.

Linus Devils Canyon OC guide is what got me into tinkering away back in 2015 so if you want to learn how to do it, id probably start there seeing as its on the same platform. Even if the chip is diffrent all the same methods apply.
I reached 4.7GHz at 1.335V, thats just a multiplier of 47x, 1.335V VCORE and i also ran a 2V VCC-IN which is what the VRM feeds the CPU and a higher voltage can help a bit but dont mess about with it unless you need too.
I wouldnt expect to reach my 4.7GHz seeing as most chips hit a wall at 4.5GHz from what i know.
Stresstesting id do with OCCT, IBT or IXT and any games you play. If you do super important things id run the stress test for 15h, if its fine if it crashes every once in a fortnight then just do 5h or something, or like me just put in whatever and run benchmarks and fix it when it crashes lol(4.7GHz did pass the 15h test though)
Lol cool thanks for that Banana fam. Is your oc on an aio though?

Haswell gets hot more than other architectures like Skylake because part of the power delivery is inside the CPU (besides the shrunk process node). Good luck going anywhere with that cooler.
Oh, and that's not a very popular motherboard, so you will need a lot of patience till anyone can help you.
That's interesting, thank you.
Temps on this 212 are surprising, across open hardware monitor and aida64 extreme overclocked, voltage up to 1.3v and on stress tests ( aida stability and intel burn test ) 60-80 degrees no more. I have a good fan curve set up.
I am looking to get a 240 aio at some point that should help me get more out of it.

its pretty much the exact same thing in the basics on every motherboard, stuff is just in diffrent menues or in diffrent orders generally, i have a lot of experience OCing my I5 4690K and I7 4790K but hey i guess i havent touched the Gaming 5 so im no help
That is Hilarious Banana split. What I mean is that when watching videos of people overclocking on different bios's is that they are named differently which confuses the process if knowing what is what.
Hey you can only do what you can do,
If you could help out then I would appreciate it but i can understand your concern having never touched or even so much as took a cheeky peak at he the MSI Gaming 5

I have trawled the net for a proper in depth guide on overclocking on the MSI Gaming 5 motherboard to loose ends and no solid guides.
I am looking for someone who is an experienced overclocker who knows the MSI Gaming 5 bios inside out that can offer me and the overclocking world an in depth guide on what is what in the bios and steps on what way to go about using it to overclock an intel chip.
In this case I am looking for someone with the same rig. MSI Gaming 5 motherboard, Intel i5 4690k, cooler master hyper 212 evo. I have clean energy too from a Be Quiet! Dark power Pro 11 650w 80+ platinum psu.
All serious replies and guides appreciated.

Just out of curiosity... Try turning off superfetch.
Thank you for that. I will do this is it continues.

If your detective work has failed you and you can't identify what's eating all your memory, it's probably a good idea to just reinstall Windows. I can tell you right now that Windows will run just fine with 8 GB of RAM, and that's without disabling OS services
Indeed sir. On boot and just using the computer normally rather that the many pages open I have open the ram is not abused, again only when live streaming the news.

in windows 10 there is a service that will fill your ram with commonly used files to make them load faster. can't remember what it's called disabled it ages ago, it's absolutely useless if you have an SSD and it cripples performance on an HDD on boot
it's basically a poorly thought out version of intel optane
Yeah my thoughts exactly. So more ram wouldnt solve this by the sounds of it.

If you go into your task manager you can see what applications are using how much ram can you post a screen shot of that?
It seems to be microsoft edge and my anti virus but also local security authority process seems to be the cuprite, its sites at 7- 8 GB of use most of the time. I read into it and apparently it assigns space to programmes when in use but sometimes doesnt refresh the ram when you close the programme or page.
It has been behaving itself but I do notice it ramp up when live streaming.

Hi guys
My 8GB of ram keeps being eaten up leaving only 1-2 GB free when I have a few internet pages open like google, facebook, youtube and streaming the news channel ( I'm not playing you tube whilst streaming the news ).
I found some say it the qos or quality of service application in windows 10 whilst other like linus say its just the ram not refreshing properly in a sense. With this page open as it stands hardware monitor still says 6GB are in use!
I know my anti virus uses some memory in the back ground on and off.
I was considering buying another 8GB dual kit to boost my ram up to 16GB but I have a feeling this would be eaten up too.
Short of resetting my PC every time which I should not have to do what could I do and can it be?
Any suggestions and experience welcomed.

Hi guys I have a shared Seagate external hard drive that will sometimes be out of my possession but I only want to give access to its files to family members only. I've had a look around on the drive options and software and can find no password set up option. Only windows general access tick boxes.
I have seen some say encrypt the drive with bit locker but I don't not have it.
Any advice and suggestions appreciated.

Depends on what you want to do in cyber security, if interested in the programming side, a junior web developer role might be quite good. IT support is very hit and miss, as some companies are only interested in hitting there SLAs and KPIs rather than improving the quality and knowledge of there staff, so they tend to break it down a lot, so level 1, level 2, level 3. You could spend 12 -18 months trying to move from level 1, which often involves solving peoples excel issues to level 2 where a lot of the more interesting things happen.
The reason, why I advocate for a web developer position, is the company will need to spend time training you, making you more of a valuable asset. You tend to be treated better and respected more. Also if you are motivated the barrier of entry really isn't that bad, you can spend $15-30 on udemy courses, build yourself a nice portfolio and nerd out over your projects in an interview, to really move up to a level 2 it support you could end up spending thousands on certifications for your Cisco and Microsoft.
With more and more things now being part of the cloud, in my opinion, its the better route and background if you ever wanted to get into security, which isn't an entry-level job. You also learn a lot more command line this route.
Look into the OSCP if interested into pentesting, labs are kinda expensive but if you are really interested in it you should have a lot of fun, and looks great to techies, if not HR.
So Helpful thank you Tksdev

To truly understand cyber security topics you need to have a strong understanding of low level hardware, programming and networking first. The default way of getting there is a university degree in computer science or software engineering. You don't necessarily need everything that is taught there though, so you could spare a bit of time (and potentially money depending on your local educational system) by following private courses on services like lynda - however, that would require careful planning of what courses to take.
To be clear, this is if you are looking to have a career in this field - if it's just to satisfy your personal curiosity, there are many informational videos on youtube which will give you a general overview of security and related topics. Computerphile is one of the best channels for this sort of thing.
Yes I follow computer file as one of my weekly go to's on you tube. I'm career driven to be in tech so I will look into the online training thank you. Unfortunately it looks like for computer science and and cyber security degrees you need at least 2 A levels which I do not have or time to go back and do them now aged 32. My grades where C to E. I'm emailing tech companies about apprenticeships.

I earnt my first wings by learning the ins and out of building my first PC ( thank you you tube and linus tech tips big inspiration ) specked it 10 times and built it in a month last year and my interest in PC tech, advances and threats have sky rocketed since then.
I'm learning Python in my spare time to get a computer language under my belt but where do I go from here.
Also I know AI, deep learning and machine learning will take over many tech jobs so what jobs will be left for us in the near future and how do I go about getting them?
Anyone with knowledge, experience and advice I'm all ears.

1866 vs 3200 DDR3

Hi guys I have 2 x 4GB 1866mhz Kingston Savage DDR3 Ram modules. They work fine for my day to day tasks and gaming for the most part.
Just out of curiosity what way do you think would benefit me when I go to upgrade to 16GB.
Should I get another 2 x 4GB 1866mhz DDR3 or get 2 x 8GB 3200mhz ram and sell my old modules?
Any advice and experience appreciated.
