    DrainDoc reacted to Saladin in Is overclocking bad ?   
    My previous CPU was overclocked to the wall and lasted 4 1/2 years, in all honesty it didn't die I just built a whole new system because technology had advanced so munch in that time frame. Overclocking may/will decrease the life expectancy but in reality you will most likely run into a situation where your hardware is obsolete before it dies, assuming of course that you keep the chip cool, you have a good PSU that gives clean power, and that you keep the dust out.

    Screw this tread, I have gotten more correct help in 4 PMs than I have in 30 posts here... Never going to want help from two of the people here, so I am probably never going to use the audio forums here anymore...

    I keep having this horrible thought involving a run away exothermic event (ie explosion). 95c is scary hot (5c more and it will convert water to steam).

    DrainDoc reacted to NosRokanaske in Question about 2 difference graphics cards in one system.   
    I was asking a hypothetical question of if it could work. I do have a sound card and good head phones already, but as far as i know TruAudio doesnt change the quality of the sound but how the sound is presented in games. I was asking if you could get that experience along with something like G-Sync. Not should I, could I. 
     
     
    Ahh okay. Thanks for answering the question. 
     
     
    But if you got the ASUS DCu2 for both of them, who can tell?

    At stock clocks, R9 290x is unable to stay with maximum clocks all the time... as fast as it gets to 95*C it starts throttling slowly.

    DrainDoc got a reaction from That Norwegian Guy in Poll: What is stopping people from buying the Radeon 7990?   
    For me personally, It seems to always be the same story with the Red Team Hyping things, and falling short.
     
    Granted, you get gaming bundles, better pricing, Mantle and what have you.
     
    There just always seems to be this stigma about the Red Team.
     
    Example: R9-290x(Titan Killer?) = Slightly better than a 780. So 290x better be cheaper than the 780, from history.
     
    Green Team = GTX 780TI???? = ?????.......More than likely stomping the 290x, for a much larger price, no doubt.
    You don't see Green Team coming out with the Titan Ultra/Super Titan. Just a simple 780ti. Just enough to one up.
     
    It's like boxing. There's a punch.....and a counter punch, a punch......and a counter punch. The Red Team never seems to be
    Counter Punching.
     
    The whole process Sucks Ass!
     
    It's like the Green Team is always just Taunting or Toying with the Red Team. Like an Older big brother harassing a younger small brother.

    I like the Koolance also. But If you want better color scheme, the NZXT Raystorm has LED holes in the mounting bracket, to light up to whatever color you want.
    Although, it only comes with blue LED. You would have to purchase a different LED if going with RED scheme I'm assuming?
     
    No filters like that, would be just fine. But they make filters to mount to 120mm fans. So you could still do it.

    Noctua's can't hurt(if you don't mind the color).  And if you are moving into a 900D? I would say a 480 is almost mandatory.
     
    I have never heard about having to much cooling. I can understand, at some point, the over abundance of Rad.'s are going
     
    to cancel out and would not be doing much more for performance. Adding more Rad.'s isn't creating more overall performance,
     
    as it is just giving more expansion of further water cooling, for more water cooled components.
     
    Get the 480. At the very least, you need to take up some room in that beast.
