  1. In my opinion he dell monitor would be a better option if you had NVIDIA cards because of the G-SYNC. If not then get the ASUS because you would just waste your money for features that you cannot take advantage of and the monitors are both the same resolution so you would not lose any quality per say. Also it looks like the ASUS monitor also has speakers built in so that could be an extra bonus.
  2. Hi all, I have a dual Xeon e5-2670 rig with an EVGA Classified Motherboard. Recently I'm wanting higher clock speeds but they are not very overclock-able. I have performance mode turned on in windows and have set the minimum speed to 100 percent but even then things still seem to go slow. So here is my question, Is there any way through the bios or some other way that i can maybe disable a c-state or something or adjust low and high durations to keep these chips at full turbo boost all the time? I don't care about heat as i have good coolers and power draw is not an issue.
  3. I have the latest drivers for both of them. I play games like doom, wolfenstein, fallout 4, etc. The problems really only show up in doom as that is the game that i have been playing recently. As for sound settings i guess normal? I have the speaker transmitting over Bluetooth. The bluetooth is not an issue because it works fine all of the other times.
  4. Hi all, I currently have a rig that is used for gaming and mining when I am at school. I have both an RX 480 and a GTX 960 in there for mining/gaming. The AMD card is the primary card that is plugged into the monitor and the Nvidia card is solely there to mine. However, when i play games, i notice some wierd stuff such as the games lagging and the sound is really off. When i take out the Nvidia card the problem goes away. Could it be that the games are trying to run on the GTX? I don't see how because the amd card is the one that is connected to the monitor. Any help would be appreciated.
  5. I have read this but I was still confused. I ended up just putting the RAM in the 4 red slots on CPU 0 and it is working just fine.
  6. Interesting... That's pretty weird. That doesn't really explain all of that space gone. Honestly I don't know what's going on then. But I know your struggles with the red bar though.
  7. Was the zip folder 3gb or the extracted folder size 3gb?
  8. What kind of application was it? Was the file size 3gb or did it say that it was the final size of the install? Generally, programs will take up more space then what the download or file size is since it unpacks itself to install. Also, that 3gb missing, if it was the program that you downloaded, wouldn't the file or installer be taking up that space?
  9. Hi all, I have an EVGA SR-X Classified motherboard that has dual sockets and I have filled them with E5-2670s. The board (pictured below) has 8 DIMM slots for the primary CPU (0) and 4 for the secondary (1) CPU. I have 4 sticks of ddr3 16GB ram and am wondering where to put them. Should I put all of them in cpu 0 or spread them out by putting 2 in cpu 1 and 2 in cpu 0?
  10. I have a really finicky SR-X classified dual cpu mobo so its wouldn't be far fetched that there is something strange happening. But it only really effects Crysis and maybe a few other games so I don't know what is going on.
  11. I'm running windows 10 on an older system so maybe what you stated does not apply to it, but I was getting stuttering when playing Crysis 3 and I have a very decent computer. when I turned the power profile to High Performance it virtually eliminated the lag. I'm not trying to debunk what you said just saying that for my system (Sandy Bridge) it seems to have made a difference
  12. So initially the fps in the games increased! However then they went down again after a reboot. It turns out that it was not my cpus at all but the clockspeeds of my gpu. There was a conflict between MSI afterburner and wattman and it set my boost clock of my gpu to 970 mhz. I changed some settings and now everything works as intended.
  13. Upon actually looking it is CPU 0 that has bent pins. So for the last hour or so i have been trying to bend them back into place. It is missing one of the pins so that i definately a big problem. Ill be running stress tests and ill post results in a while.
  14. Should i let it use the hyperthreaded cores or should i just make it use the phisical cores?
