sdy284 Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 how could you not put in a link for omega drivers? http://www.omegadrivers.net/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 A64Tweaker doesn't overclock your cpu, it changes memory timings should RTHDRIBL be under OCing Graphics Cards as an artifact tester rather than a benchmark? does RTHDRIBL have a benchmark? you should link to Memtest86+ as well: http://www.memtest.org/ memtest86+ is based on memtest86 but doesn't require a linux boot cd/floppy to run... you can run it in pure dos on a usb drive for example, along with all your bios flash utilities (that's what i do anyway) so put Memtest86 (linux boot cd/floppy) and Memtest86+ (advanced, pure dos) memtest86+ is way more up to date than memtest86 and has more cpu/ram support, and you can do stuff like change memory timings on the fly!

Silverfox Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 well, if frankenstein is willing to keep on top of this with a bit of help from a mod, could this be a sticky? or something? if everyone pitches in like with jammins PSU list before it was erased, we could be looking at a decent but brief reference for people looking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdy284 Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 kX drivers (3rd party SoundBlaster Live/Audigy drivers for music production) http://kxproject.lugosoft.com/index.php?skip=1 how does that relate to overclocking? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 ok... this is a bit of a leap, but you can tweak the ASIO latency from crap to near-zero... so it's more of a timing tweak than overclocking as such... the kX drivers *may* offer higher system performance as there isn't any bloatware like the standard creative drivers (i've never bothered to test this to prove/disprove it but it's something that might have an effect) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celcius Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 @Doom3 in the first post: Prey also uses the doom3 engine, but I find it much better at detecting unstable cpu's. It's also more stessful on videocards. link to the demo: http://www.gamershell.com/download_14372.shtml Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
