Re: Upgrade questions

I felt the same way at first, but now.... I look around and see people spending way more on console games, or these other "free to play" games than i do playing wow over the course of a year, including purchasing an expansion. How many abilities do i need? lol. I find myself running out of...

Re: Upgrade questions

I remember using a Video out card on a computer way back. It looped back the video cable for it to copy the video... The darn thing about it that it would hog resources for it to work. I have yet to see any pictures of your rig here. I hope that you are not having too much trouble with the video ca...

Re: Upgrade questions

I threw everything i could at it and the temps didn't go above 47C and 59C, however when i frapsed i still had to downgrade my settings a good bit to keep a decent fps. might look into overclocking to see if i can improve in that area.

Re: Upgrade questions

i'm going to just finish taking off the clips and install some firm foam + a little bit of velcro to hold it in place instead of trying to piece together the 20-30 little pieces of plastic sitting here on my desk.. the front seems to be fine, though i might go the same route with it to avoid having ...

Re: Upgrade questions

gonna take it back apart this weekend to make a few small changes and connect the last fan, i'll take pics then. The case actually came in broken, i'm going to decide to either fix it myself or sendit back and hope the new one they send isn't broken too. I'll prolly just fix it myself with some foam...

I'll give it a good hard test tomorrow when i get to raid with it, i'll post the results. S...

Re: Upgrade questions

I do turn shadows down to lowest setting, that makes ~ 10 fps difference, pretty big. Texures are also set to "Fair" rather than "Good" "High" or "Ultra", its just spell effects that i dont want to reduce past "Good" because i actually need to be abl...

Re: Upgrade questions

I ran CPUID all night tonight, but i didn't do any raiding. My temps are higher than i expected:

CPU cores:
89
90
86
86

GPUs:
89
85

I might actually be seeing my CPU getting throttled at 100 when i'm frapsing during a 25 player raid. If that is the case i definitely need to get a cooler, and soon.

Re: Upgrade questions

the last time i tried messing around with OC i ended up getting a flaky network connection, it would either be there or not at all, though i dont know how long ago that was. might have been before i upgraded to this new system. worth a shot if i get an aftermarket cooler, currently using stock. thou...
