Who has the best machine here? Worst?

I hear NVidea has better 'tesalation' that would give you a better quality looking detail. But at the cost of cpu and fps, so if you take away that, ATI has better cards. Ish. It's up for debate at that point :)

yeah, nvidia has some kind of smoothing/shading built in. no matter how high i crank the graphics on my ati, it looks mehh

 

[ayman]

i've owned both ATI and Nvidia.. and i do like nvidia's better for games. although i think ati does achieve higher benchmarks... but i've liked my experiences with nvidia's much better

new machine finaly dialed in.
i7 930 w/ Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme
P6X58D-E
12G Kingston Hyper X 1600mHz ram
2x Radeon HD 5870's
WD Velociraptor 10k rpm + 1TB 6G/S SATA3 WD Black

stable as a rock @ 4.2 GHz but its too fucking hot for my liking. ill keep it @ 4.0GHz for now might look into liquid cooling later and see how far this pig can go.

fuck, im gonna buy a cooler and oc too. thremalright 120 extreme is good eh ?? anything better?

 

[x-ray]

Yea i'm usually playing css on my laptop which is kinda crappy, but i got it for the right price so meh. Have another desktop which is better, but its usually being used for other games by my brother.

I'll be impressed if your cpu lasts more than one year at those temps dude :/

Rule of thumb (that I've read on every serious overclock forum that google could possibly yield) is overclock to a max of 55C, no more. At 55C load temp, your cpu is acting like it would stock, except you'll gain fuckloads of speed.

Be weary!

im cool like drugz !!! ( not really, lol)

all stores closed so im ocing on stock fan

fucking idle is like 45C fuuu-


Q: y core temp and speedfan give diff temps ?? coretemp seems to be more realistic

 

[OG buckshot jr]

Speedfan is fucked sometimes. I rely on coretemp because it uses Intel's censors that are built right in the chip itself, so I feel it's more accurate.

Uninstall speedfan as well, because that shit attempts to control your system fans/performance through some .inf's n shit. I'm not all too sure about it but I read into it a long while ago.

Also 47, drop your voltage through BIOS. Your i7 should be able to hit 3Ghz at an easy temperature. I noticed they don't heat up until 3.4+Ghz.

 

[DrUgZ]

I idle around 50C @ 4 ghz with the ultra 120, so dont sweat those temps if you are going to replace the cooler it wont hurt anything. the i7's can handle up to around 80 degrees before they start to sweat so dont go past that and you should be fine.

edit: nm im a little slow.
