New build...

Start overclocking. Should of had it to at least 3.9 to 4.0 GHz the second you took it out of the packaging :p


On overclocking you really think 4770K needs it for single screen 1920 with GTX780 OC ?


I would like tj to get full accustom to bios and tweak drivers and all the crap they give you first.

Get some baseline benches and a bit of burn in tests etc


Yeah I do not like any management or thermal controls turbo etc rather fixed clocks.

We see what tj thinks of performance vs a AMD+6000 and GTX470 loool


His bottleneck obviously is hardrive Green 1TB but i run mine with spare Sata primary drive for other stuff I have it runs fine once its booted



Nice buy would be Kingston or similar 60GB m-sata plug straight into the Mobo , they are cheap 50 pounds I believe and enough room to Run slim W7 office cad and photoshop
 
I need someone to explain setting Z87-Gaming D45 bios to boot DVD

I am a dud :(

This is why very first thing you do before new PC arrives even .......put your W7 on a bloody USB stick.

using a DVD is prehistoric !@! and slow arsed @!

I want to see it

Doh too late , going to remind you when you set up OS.

Your User name: whatever

Your PC Name : 4770K-GTX780 ( you can use hypen )

Looks good in system info ;) ....better then "tjc's PC " p


Mine is : 2500K-GTX670 >>>>>>>>>>>>> :(:(:(

lolp



;)
 
Yes, I do have a digital camera mate (Nikon D90) and I have a phone camera, pics will be posted (later/tomorrow)

Damn!!!

I`d have liked the new pc name... :p

I`ll change it... :cool:

Mine is : 2500K-GTX670 >>>>>>>>>>>>> :( :( :(

lolp

lol... :p
 
Tj's 3DMark2006 seems low to me ( temps are great )

Maybe bios settings he has done nothing yet.

He got abit over 30K first run.

With a GTX670 OC I got 32K

However I have i5 @ 4.5GHz clockspeeed for that which is worth a good 5-6K in 3dMark

Still his SM2/SM3 is a lot lower then mine , must be a reason other then the overclock.



Take note mate too!

Your CPU is higher score with stock clocks then mine at 5GHZ ( that is smokin hot :) )


Just something up with settings I would think.


Rather him not worrying about games till he gets sorted.



tj can you pls run a 3dmark11 to compare with me in that you should trounce my score. even with stock clocks.

3DMARK11 - P 5,919 ( at 5.0GHz) ................... 5GHz remember is huge increase in 3dmarks


YES PEOPLE dur .............I know I know !!!

Any 3dmark is not important games test persay.........

BUT IT IS AGAINST other combos for a BASELINE RESULTS !

so get off my case plus its great for stability and thermal testing ............and rF2 is DX9 .............so there hehehehe

Like if you ran at 4.2GHz I would say you would get auto 35K

When I look at Hall of Fame that seems like a pretty decent baseline for a GTX780 with OC i7 . ( and most on there have both OC CPU and GPU )


Like I say a direct compare at same settings with someone has a 4770K and a GTX780 in rFactor2 will be a much better compare then any 3dmarks that is for sure and certain ! ;)

But like I said it is excellent for stability and loop and thermal testing when running in a new tower :)
 
@tjc... How's the new system running?
That 1K price quoted in the first post is great...especially for Europe and a system comprised of a GTX780.
 
Had drama working out why Realtek would not work , sorted now.

I think tj be pretty happy with his results.

On to bios tweaks, baselines and some OC :p
 
PM to tj after


My thoughts on OS and build success ................. but with no heavy tweaking and cranking as of yet.



" We've only just begun to live,
White lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we're on our way. ( don't think sooo !!! ) loool
We've just begun

Before the rising sun we fly
So many roads to choose

We start out walking and learn to run.
And yes, We've just begun. "





hahahahahahaha :p
 
Someone please give tj a list for best things to stop a HDD banging on ( his older Sata is a bit noisy )


He says his sata HDD LED goes crazy

Sounds to me in part like a untweaked bios, management and OS in a very fast system vs a slower hardrive. :)


But I too tired, brains too fried ( see POST ABOVE ) lopl

Do a help list pls.
 
Thanks for the link DJC, I`ll have a read...

I`ll be getting a SSD asap man, that`s for sure.

I`d hardly describe it as "banging" :D just a little more noisy than it was before and (from memory) definitely seems to be more HDD activity than there was before...

Might be just as D says though and the HDD is too slow for the new build.

We`ll see...
