Yeah even at 10 bump in clock speed crashes it, I doubt the machine produced it right up to the edge. I may have lost the silicone lottery but if you ship it with a factory OC speed that crashes the system I have a problem.

RMA received. Back to the 970's and wait for the next gen.

Without some tool from ASUS which unlocks the higher OC mode. It can hit with air cooling around 2020MHz.

That sounds retarded but I'm assuming the 480 Strix will need the same tool for it's higher OC mode...sheesh.

Idk, but it is stupid.
My thinking it that it's for RMA. They probably bin a certain percent of the batch and not every chip is binned like EVGA Kingpins.

Oh he definitely got an unlucky lemon 100%. There is a forum post about it with a few others of the same luck.
I've been lucky to this point, having never received a DOA part, broken part, or unlucky part.

By rule of statistics (I've built hundreds of PCs), I've received at least one of every type of core component DOA (or not fully functional). Except for CPUs.

If you look at the tweakui screenshot you will see I am in Gaming Mode, if I try to use the factory OC mode the system freezes. The reports of them shipping messed up cards is either true or I got the unlucky straw either way by the time I can find another one to take my chances with we will be too close to the next big thing.

That's what it is? Gaming mode in a regular oc tool?

Think of it like the OC presets for the CPU that you can find in the Intel Bios.

No I know what it is, lol
I'm saying PCper made a big deal about a tool to unlock more voltage. The way they talked about it, sounded like it was outside of the regular oc tool.

Whats the best model of gtx 1060 in the 300 and 350 price range (separately)?
Posted on 7/30/16 at 7:12 pm to Swoopin
If you're paying 350 you might as well pay a little more for a 1070 on sale,or just get a 980ti.

Yeah, I don't think anyone on the tech board even knows what ECC memory is.
