Overclocking

[[m'kay]]

Wow relax {m'kay}i ordered the pc with those parts,I didnt build myself but as this is tech support and I trust you guys I thought this would be a good place to ask as some of you ofcourse are better than me in pc tech i admit i am a total noob at pc building. As i want to oc this pc for video editting .Thanks as you advice i will keep the system as it is .Just rendering takes a bit of time.

I've got a system that's about as good as yours, even if it isn't as ~super cool kidtastic~, and I can render videos at about half-speed, which is pretty goddamn good. Overclocking your system isn't going to suddenly make rendering a five minute long video take like 30 seconds, and I for one would rather wait the extra ten minutes or so than potentially [m'kay] up my computer just because I couldn't stand not looking at porn for a little while. If you're new at PC building, then the answer to "should I overclock" is always going to be no.

Thanks guys I will probably forget the over clocking and maybe Sli the gtx(will read guides don't worry :p) so I can get better fps.Thanks again !

Jesus goddamn what the [m'kay] kind of video games are you playing that you aren't maxing out with one 670? Holy [poo], I can run The Witcher 2 on High at 60 FPS with one Radeon 6770, which is like half as strong as one of your cards. Don't even [m'kay] touch it for like 2 years and you'll still be maxing [poo] out at 60 FPS, and when things actually start slowing down then you can SLI, because then you might be like 15 and 80% less likely to blow up your entire house. Literally the best advice I can give you is to never touch your computer ever.

Well you obviously are way more experienced than me in pc stats but usually sli-ing can give a boost at it pc but as this tech support and I asked for it I will keep your advice:)btw I am older than 15 but not good on computers...

Okay, cool. If you really are dead-set on SLIing and eventually overclocking, you should really really do your research on it beforehand. Running stuff SLI probably won't destroy your computer, but basically a good rule of thumb every time you want to do something to your computer, is just assume that you are the most incompetent mother [m'kay] in the world and research absolutely everything about it before you take a step. I'm not saying you're a complete retard, i'm saying that it's generally a good idea to assume you are. When I was like 15 I decided I knew my [poo] about computers, and then started cleaning the inside of my computer with a paper towel because goddamn it i'm not a compute retard no sir. I spent that entire summer with a laptop that couldn't run SWBFII at all. Always assume you're terrible at computers, because yeah a lot of the time you are.

I know I am bad at computers myself,but I will be better some time for sure and because I am not willing to risk my pc I am following your advice won't touch for now.Thanks for the help :)

Just to let you know, wcocaboose overclocked and tested products for Intel.

That's awesome!

That's awesome!

The awesome was seeing stuff 6 months before release.

The not so awesome was dealing with press kits, and 60 hour weeks leading up to product launches. The team I was on dealt with pre production validation on every major product launch from Pentium D to Second gen Core i7.

If its an intel proc and an intel board I can tell you pretty well how to fine tune the thing to do backflips if that's what you want. Other manufacturers I can only offer a best guess as their bios implementation is different; and often expose settings intel chooses not to

Other than the slights on your intelligence there has been some sound advice offered here by several people.

We all start at a base knowledge level in given subjects, and gain knowledge as we go forward within that subject er. I didn't just wake up one day and have the skills needed to do the job I currently do. Its been 15 years of dedicated study, and fitting round pegs into square holes.

Above all have fun with your pc, read up on things you have questions about, and if all else fails keep posting them here. The only stupid question is the one you do not ask.

you should be the new moderator for the tech support section

God knows it needs one. It's a [m'kay] lawless wasteland around here- pretty sure I saw some [derriere orifice] with a bandana ramp that rock with a motorcycle or something, this needs to stop.


Sorry, I got interrupted midpost because someone broke my jaw with a brass knuckled punch, and then went into the command prompt and typed in "ipconfig /release" and now the internet is dead. It's been a good run everyone, don't forget to turn out the lights. See you on Internet 2.
