    HD5970 Question

    With the 10.3 drivers and crossfire profiles, do you need to install for a single 5970 as it is effectively crossfired on 1 PCIe slot, or is it for dual cards only? Thanks

    Antec 1200 Wiring Problem Sorted

    no probs mate, the technician said there were issues with the Antec cases with this particular problem, he couldn't inspect all the wiring due to Antec riviting the case. I knew I had big issues somewhere when I got reboots in the bios. The fix cost me £30 but money well spent, I am only a...

    Antec 1200 space

    Rampage 2 Extreme fits in no problems, you will find it tight on cable management though but it will go in.

    Antec 1200 Wiring Problem Sorted

    I have had a problem with my rig since I built it, random reboots left me searching for a solution for 2 months and no success, I had to give up and take it to a repair shop to be looked at by a technician as I have no parts to swap out to diagnose. Turns out that my problem was with the...

    ASUS Rampage II Extreme Thread

    Now found out my problem, turns out it was not to do with the motherboard but a wring issue in my Antec 1200 case, seems that the reset button was permanently grounded and drops in voltage, static build up, anything would have reset my system, and totally at random. Solution --- Unplugged the...

    i7 920 c1 stepping

    I would say so, CO needs more CPU voltage than DO but apart from that it should do 4GHz

    ASUS Rampage II Extreme Thread

    Hi Paul, I am still having issues with my rebooting, I thought it was the 2D clock settings on my 5970 so I increased them by editing a profile and all went well for 2 days, then rebooted 6 times yesterday. I still need to get my rig out and give it an inspection so there are a few more things...

    how do you update BIOS

    I cannot comment on the Gigabyte boards but I have an Asus board, you normally download the file and extract and copy to a USB stick, reboot system with stick inserted and it automatically flashes the bios. Gigabyte should have instructions on their site on how to do this, be careful though...

    Ally, thanks also for the info and screens, I had the issues with 2 PSU's and same problem, RAM is in the blue slots and I have 8 pin on CPU. I will check out the bios chips and if I still get problems I will get another keyboard. I have cable managed but the back is a bit 'messy' I will check...

    ASUS Rampage II Extreme Thread

    Cheers Paul, some screens would be nice if you could, the random reboots I am getting are annoying but I am back on the desktop in under 1 minute, it is bugging me I can't do any excel work unless I save every 30 seconds. I have asked a local repair shop to look at it and they said they would...

    ASUS Rampage II Extreme Thread

    Thanks Paul, I might try some fiddling in the bios, although I don't understand most of it, voltage is reading 1.15 - 1.17 in the bios, some many settings. Ally, you have the same rig as me apart from PSU, but I did have problems with reboots when I had my old thermaltake 750, any help you can...

    I can only state what problems I had with Win 7 64 bit install, I have given you links to other people with same problem, I did say it would be hard for you to believe, I was puzzled myself, and still am for that fact but it solved the problem. If you are happy with your fix on voltages then...

    The FiiO E5 and HD595

    The E5's bass boost certainly adds depth and does not feel gimmickly like say Sony walkman type of bass boost that was bairly noticable, at low noise levels it will definately help, but i think you could get the same effect with an equaliser set up properly. With the E5 it feels as though the...
