    The RX Vega 56 Owners Thread

    Thanks, yes it's a worry because yes I want to under volt but if I start needing to look at a new PSU then it is probably a better solution to look at the RTX 2060...I'll do a bit more reading!

    The RX Vega 56 Owners Thread

    I'm about to order the VEGA 56 Reference card and I want to double check if Seasonic G series 550w '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply should be enough juice to power this beast? I have an i5 3570k @4.4Ghz 16gb RAM, 1 SSD etc. I am currently running an old AMD 7970 GHZ so this should feel like...

    *** AMD GO WILD: VEGA 56 THE TRUE DEAL OF THE CENTURY AND IT JUST GOT BETTER!!!

    Why no replenishment options, is Vega 56 EOL? I'm tempted to buy one but I'm not home for another 2 weeks so I was thinking about waiting until I get back!

    Best GPU to pair with an AMD 8350?

    I would have thought the RX570 would be the perfect fit for that cpu. I would assume unless you are getting a very good price for the 980ti it would still be classed as expensive for a budget machine. Not that I'm saying a RX570 would even be close to matching a 980ti, its in a league of its own...

    GTX 1060 - Buy now or wait?

    If your computer works and you can still play games (with low settings) then wait. I’m refusing to buy current Nvidia gen cards as they are 2 year old tech. My 7970 GHz struggles at 1440p but it’s just about playable. I wouldn’t bother with AMD either as the price / performance just isn’t...

    Heatsink recommendations/suggestions

    Maybe but in my Corsair 550D case it was super easy to fit and I cannot hear anything. The pump is silent and the 2 120mm fans are set to low. My case does have some noise canceling by default :D

    Heatsink recommendations/suggestions

    I can recommend the Corsair Hydro 105 240mm, it keeps my i5 at great temps while also being silent. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-025-CS&groupid=701&catid=2330&subcat=2342 I'm not sure if it is better value compared to other massive air coolers but depending on the...

    AMD 8350 Stock with after market cooling @ 69C!

    Hi all, I am trying to make sure my brothers machine is running at an acceptable level. Currently the CPU is set to 3.5GHZ with no option enabled for turbo. I have undervolted the CPU to 1.224v from the stock VID of 1.3625v. After 20 mins of Pime95 I have decided to create this...

    Advice: which cheap but quiet CPU cooler?

    Hi all, As the title suggests which CPU cooler would you advise used on a AMD Piledriver FX-8 Eight Core 8320E. It's a large Lian Li case, but ideally not too big. I just installed a new graphics card on my brothers system, I thought the new GPU sounded excessively loud...only to find out...

    Thank you for the suggestions. I will take a look at the bios settings tonight. My motherboard is already on the latest version of the bios, I had to update this a few months ago for the AMD 7970 to work. I have been trying to use event viewer since this problem started (1 week ago)...

    Windows keeps freezing - how to diagnose the cause?

    Normally my PC will freeze after playing a game, so could be many hours of playing the game but once I have finished or maybe alt-tab back into windows my PC will become unresponsive. Normally my wireless USB TP Link adapter will loose power when this happens. I originally thought windows could...

    If the GTX 460 has 1GB of ram it should be better than both of the cards....not by much but it should be better :)
