Thanks for these comments. I bought the i5 at a time i didn't have the money to go for the i7. The I5 is under a stock air cooler. I did have a Zalman ZD1225BTR on there but it broke down. The 4k is just fine on the one 980ti. At least I don't notice any problems when on one 980ti...

Hi Ive built this system and it does run very well but can it be better. CPU i5-4690K CPU @ 3.50GHz, 3501 Mhz, O'c to 4Ghz on air Motherboard Z97X-Gaming 3 v.1.0 RAM 16GB Crucial Ballistix Tracer 2 x SSD RAID Samsung 850 500GB in RAID 0 4 x HDD 1TB Seagate 2 x Zotac GeForce GTX 980Ti...

I've got a 560Ti 1GB (Super overclocked to 950mhz) and play BF3 with no problems even playing on a 37inch samsung LED screen 1920 x 1080 at full settings. Nvidia driver is 290.53 (beta) This is on a old Asus Striker 2 Formula MB with 8GB of Crucial Ballistix Tracer Ram, 128GB Mushkin Chronos...

I can't use the 5850 the card is too big for the case (X-Blade) Also my motherboard won't run Crossfire as its a Nvidia 780i chipset. (Which I just found out DOH!) The 2 8800GTs AMP Edt, I had running on it were awesome. I was going to get a GT 400 series card but they are massive at 10.5...

Yes Sorry I got interrupted when writing about a size issue with the 5850 and didn't press submit. The 5850 is 9.5 inches long and whilst I could get it in the slot I wasn't able to slide the HDD's back into their slots and fix them. So I went back and got the 2 5770's as they were only 8.5...

:o:o:o Yes I should have done my research on the chipset of the motherboard. Im kicking myself..:eek::eek: Considering the number of PCs Ive built I should have known better. I assumed that PCI-e 2.0 was a standard and that it would not matter which card, ATi or Nvidia I had in the slots...

Well, thought everythings was going well. Then I did some bench marking WTF! 15389 in 3DMARK06!!! I got 18234 with two 8800GTs OC'd. After some searching Crossfire does not work on my motherboard as its an Nvidia 780i chipset. IM SO ..... OFF. Even the one 5770 is a poor score. So a GTX 465...

Don't you just hate it when you buy your GFX card and pay one price get home install it then somehow up pops a website with a price lower than you paid and a faster GFX Grrrr. This site is offering the 5770 1024 GB OC'd to 875mhz and 5.2Ghz!!! for £124 inclusive of TAX and delivery and 2 year...

Been naughty today, bought two 5770's went home installed looked awesome. Took them out, returned to store swapped for a 5850 thought I could get away with the store guy giving me two for the price of one by going on about football etc., dam I hate intelligent tills. So came back with just one...

Dam thats some hot hamster you got going there, you running him on Redbull Extreme? (sorry that its off Topic - Drunk from too many Redbulls beers and England aint even kicked a bull yet)

Chance to RMA?, go for it, hope for anew card or at best an UPGRADE! Sound is very stressful so a good reason to RMA too.

Unplug your fans EXCEPT the GPU, CPU. PSU Fan nought you can do about that. DON'T UNPLUG THE GPU or CPU fan If your sure its the GFX Swap it out for another if you have it. Or you can take it out and try to boot your PC without the GFX card will complain with a load of beeps but if the sounds...

Yup that TV. The newer Samsung 3D TV made me ill. Esp. at £2200! thanks for the info and comparisons, maybe Ill go for the 2 5770's then when I have the money I can go for the 58 series in Xfire. Playing on 1 8800GT Amp card just does not cut it.

Made me feel sea sick after about 10 minutes then I felt really ill for teh rest of the after noon. Went to try a new 3D TV same thing though this time I threw up on Dixons sales floor!! I won't be "investing " in 3D

A 5830? hmm. Do you think at 1650 x 1050 im paying for something Im not going to use with a 5850? I hadn't considered that possibility. ( I am trying to Save for a Samsung series 8 LED TV 40" but Im not sure what resolution I can get on that yet) Dixons and Comet sales people glaze over...

Resolution is 1650 x 1050.

Funny same happened to me the other day with my 8800GT Amps One died during MW2. However that was a PSU that killed the card. If you followed the oven trick and its still dead then it most likely terminal. DEpending on how good you are with a solder gun you could remove teh Cooler and look for...

Hi Should I got for Two Asus ATI Radeon HD 5770 CuCore 1024MB in Xfire (£263 total) or one Asus ATI Radeon HD 5850 DirectCU 1024MB (£254 total) Or another option if someone has a better Idea. Ive only got £270 to spend (sniff) Thanks DAve

Another HX PSU faulty My HX850 died but the surge protector caused that failure. There are many HX PSU failures being reported on the Corsir forums. Scorched PIN OMFG You would have to have big balls to fire that up again. I would RMA the board or risk loosing a CPU, RAM etc, if you havn't...

Double check your Audio is plugged in correctly. with out Mother board specs no idea what goes where. Fan - try another fan in the same socket if that works the other fan died, it happens and can even prevent a PC from booting.
