    New HDMI reciever required.

    For the money your not going to beat the sony strhd820 which I bought about 6 weeks ago and love. You can pick one up for about £210 - £230 and its got all the toys apart from network access which for me wasnt an issue as its connected to my htpc. For the money you get 7.2 channel x 105watt...

    Whats faster bclk or multiplier

    I have a 3570k on an Asus v gene board. Just out of interest what's the standard voltage for the chip? If I load defaults on the board it sets to 1.38 which seems very high. I'm currently running at 1.25. Idle temps float about 28 - 32 load is about 60 with a max of 66 running prime.

    So to explain my cryptic title for an overclock of say 4.5ghz is it better to run with a 45x100 setup or like mine currently 44x102.4? I can push the bclk to 105mhz and it seem stable but any more 106 and it won't post, hence why I turned it down a bit. Don't like things sitting right on the...

    Good ways to cool the warm air being put out by ur pc?

    There is no way your PC is heating a room 6x4 meters. Thats a total heat loss of about 2.4kw (working on 100w per square meter which is about average for anything build more than 5-10 years ago). If you live in a new super insulated house then that could drop to about 1.2kw but still I doubt...

    GTX680 HDMI sound

    Fixed it and worth noting for future reference. The sony amp has an option under hdmi settings amp or amp and tv. The default setting is amp and tv but from looking over the manual it states if problems arise with surround inputs change this to amp only. Changed it and the full range of...

    GTX680 HDMI sound

    I've test it with several multi channel sources and get nothing but stereo. All I can do in the mean time is to run an optical cable from the onboard sound card. Done some searching and it seems NVIDIA in there wisdom removed driver support for multi channel over hdmi. Hopefully they get it...
