    Ooof 120mm cooler

     

    Well then since you arent gonna run more than 1.3v anyways then just run it till tjmax and itll still be fine (100c), just depends on if you are fine with high temps or not

    When it used to be oc'd it'd never get too hot regardless. It used to be at 4.5 1.34/5 for ages until I reset bios. OC worked again after with internet then didn't one day but will look into a lan card for sure.

    Oh yea forgot to mention, at a certain freq cpu will have diminishing returns

     

    Usually its ~1.3v for most cpus, above 1.3v and you are not gaining much freq, i run my e8400 1.34v 4.3ghz so yours is def different

     

    Though after ~200-400mhz of the initial diminishing returns it gets a lil better though you will still need alot of cooling

     

    Also my rule of thumb is take a deathzone voltage and -0.3v which results in a max "safe" voltage, for my 45nm cpus that is 1.75v, for your cpu its 1.6v, although if intel spec reccomends 1.52v stick to that unless you are like me and comfortable with high volts and prob high temps too

     

     

    Tbh your lan is prob oofed, just buy a cheap lan card

    Looks like it might be to be fair, I run it with a Corsair H80i GT v2 and have it setup where it never goes above 75 playing games or editing.

    Prob just an f ed lan or something, lan cards arent really that expensive so you can just buy some cheap 10$ lan card and plug that into your pc, that should make up for the dud mobo lan

     

     

    thats a 22nm cpu, 22nm is quite similar to 14nm in terms of voltage tolerances so you can just use intel spec 14nm max voltage which is 1.52v as a max voltage, deathzone is ~1.9v so if you accidentally set 1.7 or something it isnt really the end of the world, unless it starts overheating, so volts arent much of a concern

     

    But you gotta pay attention to temps to make sure the cpu isnt cooking itself to death i suggest keeping it under 85c but if you are going 1.5v+ then maybe lower that to under 80c and pref 75c, deathzone for temps wise is ~115-120c+ so if you reach 100c then also not the end of the world, heck ive even run my pentiums at 1.75v over 100c just because i can, but thats a sacrificial pentium and thats on lga 775 where the cpus are bulletproof and will take 1.7v as a max safe volt even on 45nm xD  also usually ~85c+ is where high oc becomes unstable so yea there is no incentive on running the cpu hotter

     

    by deathzone i mean very very unsafe temps/volts, so you can run them without the cpu dying, ran a sacrificial pentium at 45nm deathzone voltages (~2.03v) and still alive, but if i were to go to 2.1v thats pretty much insta deathzone, set that voltage and cpu insta die, even saw a youtuber run a 10900k on a crap cooler at 118c max and it didnt die, but again abit above deathzone is guaranteed insta death

     

    just a lil general info that i thought might help you in your overclocking and help you avoid panic attacks, def had some panic attacks and temp concerns when i was beginning on overclocking 775 xD

    I've been told 4.5 @ 1.34v is a good amount for an oc on a 5930K and haven't tried it right yet as this is happening with my onboard LAN. I don't know if it's taking power from the LAN when I overclock at all or just needs a driver update maybe.

  4. I have a i7 5930K currently sat at base clock of 3.50ghz, 16GB of GSKill 3200Mhz DDR4 ram, and an MSI X99A Titanium motherboard LGA 2011.

     

    Whenever I attempt to overclock the cpu everything works fine besides my onboard LAN disappears and I can't find any networks even though I'm on ethernet.

     

    Have tried numerous things but it does not seem to work at all so far, not sure if my motherboard drivers are up to date as i'll have to double check later but so far I don't know what I can do to fix it. 

     

    NOTE: Overclocked in BIOS.

     

    Thanks.

    Yeap, I wasn't sure how its called, so its a separate install...hmm then you could try to uninstall Nvidia sound drivers *if* thats an option. 

    I just know there's issues with this rtx voice app though. 

    Ps: and if that fails DDU and reinstall drivers . I mean it  sounds like a driver issue to me either way. 

     

     

    I completely re installed geforce experience yesterday but i'll take a look at a complete overhaul of doing the sound drivers too.

    Why do you need shadow play to use a mic, for recording?

     

    Anyways there is known issues with "Nvidia voice" or whatever,  if you use that turn it off.

     

     

     

     

    I use my microphone on shadowplay for most clips that either include conversation or so, have always used it and like to.

     

    I don't have Nvidia Voice installed, and by that I assume RTX voice?

  7. Just got my modmic today and....It sounds horrible? Insane amounts of static whenever I talk or in shadowplay clips...Quality just seems terrible. Heard so much good stuff about these mics and I guess I'm the lucky contestant who's sounded quite the opposite.

     

    Any help if theres any software or any tips to remove alot of this static/whitenoise?!

     

    Thanks.

    No. It's the same webcam. Logitech renamed the C920 recently to the C920 Pro HD just to make the placebo effect of releasing a new product.

    Elgato just released their Facecam webcam, and image quality is damn impressive. You should consider it when it sells.

    Ohhhh ok great! I was just wanting to make sure there wasn't any drastic difference or something between the two so I guess if they're both the same then it's fine 🙂

  9. I'm debating on buying the C920 and on amazon there's a deal which both of them are on sale for £59.99

     

    Only thing Im confused about is that the C920 Pro HD better than the C920e?

     

    They look the same in most matters so I'm wondering if they'd be different in terms of quality, I've had a C920 Pro before in the past and I can get the C920e tomorrow due to the shipping.

     

    Any help?

     

  10. So tomorrow my Samsung 860 EVO 500GB arrives, I'm swapping this from my Kingston VSS300 Which I've had for numerous years and has recently been performing poorly, and in general my pc is just full of cluttered shit and a million programs which have sort of made my pc not let other programs work. But besides that my question still remains.

     

    So, I've put all my important files and games etc onto my M.2 ssd and my plan is this:

     

    Put everything onto my M.2

    Take out the m.2 so on the windows reset it doesn't wipe my m.2 so to say.

    Put a windows boot file onto the new ssd

    Disconnect my old ssd, restart with just the new ssd and get windows setup on it fresh.

    Re install the m.2 and yes????

     

    I'm assuming this may work???? Correct me if I'm wrong, honestly haven't really touched my pc in a long time besides cpu/mobo/cooler upgrades blah blah and nothing really windows wise.

     

    Thanks:)

  11. Hi, somewhat recently my shadowplay recordings have been coming out at 19.20fps (I'll attach an image of the properties.)

     

    I don't know how or why it happened it might've been an update or just out of the blue with my graphics card.

     

    Specs: i7 5930K @ 5.0 GHz / STRiX GTX 1060 6GB / ASUS X99A TITANIUM / 16GB G SKILL TRIDENT Z DDR4 / Kingston 120GB ssdnowV300 / Samsung 970 EVO 1tb m.2 ssd / EVGA G2 850

     

    I play mainly rust and the division 2 and it seems like anytime I alt f10 something and look back through it in my videos it's just horrendously low fps. I get above 60+fps in both games, which is what it's set to record at so it's very confusing on why it's doing this.

    Are you launching any games like CSGO? A lot of Valve games make the mic go to 100% volume whenever they start :)

    Yeah, I'm playing CS:GO and Rust and so but I have it set so the microphone volume level stays the same through the cfg file, there's a line called "voice_mixer" or something along those lines where you can choose what level it is at, and i have it set to match my windows settings.

    Check you apps if they're set to auto adjust mic volume levels. Most applications do this by defualt. 

    Is there anyway I can do that?

     

    Because I run a lot of programs that I don't know if i'd be able to check if they control my mic.

     

    It just happens randomly even like

    mid talking or, if i'm sat watching videos, or just playing games.

  14. So. My persistent issue is still around. 

     

    For some strange reason my mic likes to adjust its sound?

     

    It's always on 100 on the level on windows, and the Audio interface is turned up a bit aswell.

     

    I have a RODE NT1-A With a Behringer UMC22. This only started happening recently and has been a pain for such things like discord.

     

    I've unticked the "exclusive" stuff and not letting it be taken control of, I've done the communications thing where it wont do anything if other programs intervene.

     

    I'm stuck for answers.

  15. Anyone have any fixes for My mic going super quiet in discord randomly? I have a RODE NT1-A XLR with a Behringer UMC22 Interface and recently it's decided that it wants to go super quiet if I move it the slightest, or sometimes just randomly.

     

    I have the levels at 100% and I have all of the little extras on discord turned off which can control my microphone, I also have off the "Let programs exclusively take control of this device" etc etc.

     

    Is there a simple fix for it at all?

  16. So,

     

    I use a Behringer UMC22 and a RODE NT1-A.

     

    I never really bothered with installing the drivers before because with a plug and play sorta thing that happened with it I never really bothered, and it worked perfectly, audio would come back through both ears lets say in a shadowplay clip for example.

     

    Today whilst updating my Behringer drivers to: BEHRINGER_2902_X64_2.8.40 straight from their site, I noticed that the microphone became a "Line-in" device and only gave me the option for 2 channel input from my microphone,and it's just been a real bother with what side it comes out of. Hence why it was coming back through 1 ear.

     

    I have searched far and wide for fixes, like uninstalling the drivers and whatnot but that only causes my microphone to not be recognised.

     

    It works fine for people in discord, they hear me without a problem, but in any other program it's havoc and only comes from one ear.

     

    I'm hoping someone is out there who knows a simple quick fix that I'm a bit too blind to see.

     

    Thanks, Chawndi :)
