Hi guys, would anyone be able to advise on which are to go to mobo for me. I'm looking forward to replace it. As the lack of sata 3.0 is bottlenecking my current SSD, and an upgrade to USB 3.0 would be nice too. Here are the info of my current rig. Mobo : H61MLC PSU : Corsair CX550M CPU : I7-2700K GPU : XFX Radeon RX 580 SSD : Samsung Evos 860 250GB HDD : Hitachi HDS721050CLA662 500GB Ram : Kingston DDR3 1333mhz 4gb (2 sticks) Appreciate your help and inputs (:

i have followed the video above, seems to have increased my power consumption steadily by tuning the gpu and vram. except it crashed shortly. guess it's just some tuning issue until i find the sweet spot

i have left the power tuning disabled, had also tried sliding it to the maximum still the same result. the readings i've stated are from AMD Radeon software as attached. yes i've taken that into consideration too of it being an older game. sorry guys, i should have given more info and data. thanks for all your help so far!

Is there anything wrong for having only 8w on idle on a RX XFX 580? Even when i'm running MU online, i'm not having the smoothest fps. And the power consumption seems to be peaked at at 11w. i understand that it's an old game and doesn't require a lot, but isn't it a little too ridiculous? i'm running a i7-2700k and a brand new corsair cx550m
