![]() ![]() If I need advice on OCing or extreme cooling I will definitely assume you know what you are talking about :) I say what follows only to keep people from perpetuating fallacies and because, well, I am right. ![]() ARGH!!!!īefore I disagree with you further, I do want to say one thing. Unfortunately I tried very hard not to get annoyed by your comments (coming from a great OCer such as yourself, compared to a n00b like me) and spent a long time writing a civillized response. Oddly the DVM still says it's alright but then maybe it's biased.As a matter of fact I don't have any PSU's that pass muster except when I consult my meter.įor everyone elses sake I will quote myself since you seemed vexed on one point of my post, rather than the entirety. Pick one you like and I'll tell you whether or not my PSU even passes muster.So far they all tell me it's crap and needs to be replaced as the voltages are often wrong by 50% or greater. I have more faith in SW voltage measurements than SW temperature monitoring software anyday of the week. But to give you a general idea of what is actually going on in your system.įor example, seeing your gcore voltage move from 1.05 to 1.15 when you load it, you have an indication that your card has moved to 3d mode. The idea of software monitoring, is not to stake your life on the results. Granted not many people have the equipment or patience to accurately record the temperatures of their CPUs, so seeing someone comapre them to a SW reading. ![]() 2 different softwares will show readings 20C different. Especially with 45nm Intel and AMD chips. Software temperature monitors on the other hand. And everytime I see someone say they are bad, someone pulls out a DMM and measuers within a few hundreths of a volt what the SW is reading. Software voltage monitors have come a long ways. Intel Burn Test () (Warning: this really stresses your system)įavorite Sites to visit for tools and benchmarks: I'm sure I'll miss a few so put 'em up if I missed it. Here is my little list of must have overclocking utilities. ![]()
