[QUOTE="lucky_star"][QUOTE="dabigsiebowski"] Hyper 212+ with Artic silver 5 2 fans with push pull and 1 for exhaust. All are on a controller, I have a 2800 RPM rear exhaust fan which help the temps easy while maintaining quiet under idle, sorta loud under load but I game with a headset anyways. With prime it can get up to about 48-50c. I was able to get a safe clock up to 3.9 but would sit around 55c under prime, 4.0 bsod but if I bump voltage to 1.5 I'm sure its achievable but not really worth it in my case. Since you have the rev 3 (I think) I've read you could take 965 up to 4.0 while keeping it within 50c if you have really good airflow. I dunno much about your cooler but your temps seem rather hot for stock clocks. Artic silver 5 should drop temps anywhere between 3-7c (even more depending on cpu,32nm) if you apply just the right amount, Since it's thick I suggest spreading it very very thin across the cpu but make sure it covers it on. I used a piece of small paper to do mine. But airflow is the absolute key and go fully modular on a power supply and go behind your motherboard, these are probably some of the most underated performance tips. I just gained all my knowledge reading tons of reviews and looking at what other people have done with similar builds.dabigsiebowski

I had a 7970 which I just sold to my brother to put into his bulldozer 8150 build and now I obtained the 680. My system is in my sig so what should I be expecting.

I had the 7970 running BF3 constant 60fps+ with dips into low mid 50's with a 1190/6825/1380 v core with temps mid 70's no sweat.

Crysis 2 HDDX11 pushes around 58 frames but can dip to mid 40s in rare scenarios.

Witcher 2 Maxed with ubersampling is all over the place from mid 40's to low 60's but mostly mid 50's fps.

All these game will go up to 70 fps+ in some instances as well but rarely and not with noting.

My Phenom 2 940 is clocked at 3.7 with a 1.475 v core temps sit high 20s idle with low to mid 40s under load. I know a lot people are rolling intels now but I was curious if anyone had a similar build as to me with performance postings.

Hi,

I've had a EVGA GTX 460 Superclocked for or a year, and have been constantly having problems with it. I've tried differen't drivers, done all the troubleshooting EVGA suggested, and got a replacement card but the problem keeps persisting.

^ That's the message that pops up after the computer freezes and the screen goes black for a few seconds. Sometimes it stays in the frozen state and has to be reset. I'm also getting major artifacting throughout flash, games and just basic tasks.

If anyone has an idea of what's going on it would be much appreciated.

It does not have a 32gb, it requires 32gb free all togheter from the hdd to play the game.

This is common stuff in the pc gaming world.

Diablo 3 beta required more memory and the install was about 3gb.

Ok i have the option of getting one of these. One of them is a gtx 460 1 gb 192 bit and the other one is a gtx 560 se 1gb which is also 192 bit. What surprises me is that the gtx 560 is about 10 bucks cheaper than the 460. What do i do? Which one should i get?

It may be as simple as your graphics chip being too old and simply too weak.
It cant handle the games you are trying to play and thats why its crashing.

Get a graphics card.

EDIT:
No wait, thats a laptop? Get a new one!

The thread you linked is 4 years old and even in 2008 your graphics chip was really never meant for playing the games you mentioned.
