Copying and pasting from the last page...

Alright guys, everything is updated to the second post (see if I have your correct), but I need some of y'all to make corrections/changes.

Can you get me a link to your 3dmark score page? It's covered up in your pic by your username proof. I'm OCD and I want everything to be right

Do you know which motherboard you have?

Hey man, you guys are the ones that suggested this build for me.

It runs all the stuff I need it to just fine. I wonder if this has anything to do with why Binding of Isaac crashes my computer, though.

I'd love to, but I don't have the cooling system to do it right now. I bought a fan for my CPU, but it doesn't fit in my mid tower.

ETA: Actually let me try something real quick and re-test.

My adjustments in BIOs actually boosted it by about 300.

Nice score Drewbie, but I believe you have another 1500pts left to go.

Is there no OC on any of the components?

There is, but doesn't OC'ing make your system run hotter? I've got stock cooling so I can't afford to raise the temps, at least on my CPU. I could probably OC my GPU and be fine.

If you have a stock cpu cooler i wouldn't recommend it. Have you tested your temps at stock during benches?

Yes, but that energy gets displaced slowly over time. You will be fine running 1hr of OCing and benching.

You you first OC and start benching your temps will become a little hotter, BUT they will hit a ceiling fast. The dangerous temps come from displacement of energy over an extended period of time. Yes your stock cooling will be loud, nasty and hot, but you won't reach dangerous thermal levels by just finding your max OC and running a bench.

Download HW Monitor to monitor temps. Since it saves the MAX Temp, Usage and Voltage Draw of every component in the system, there is no need to constantly check.

Already have it on here. During gaming without OC my CPU will hit 90c if I'm playing something demanding like Witcher 2.

ETA: Just ran another benchmark. CPU hit 81c and GPU hit 66c.
