Maximum safe voltage for onboard GPU (GT overclocking) on 2500k using Z68A-GD65?

i am currently stuck on using onboard graphics of my 2500k which is HD 3000 until i wait for my new GPU to arrive(probably 2-3weeks from now )
i looked everywhere and can't find any answer on how high should be the limit for onboard GPU overclocking
the option is from 1.0-1.35v
how high is the safe limit for onboard gpu voltage so i could start pushing the chip ?

Maximum Safe Voltage on GTX580 Lightning XE?

Going by the regular, non-Beta version of MSI's AfterBurner program, the voltage slider will go only up to 1115mV. Is that the maximum safe voltage using the stock Twin FrozR III? If there's a higher safe voltage to use, what is it and how do I raise my cards from the Maximum 1115mV in AfterBurner?
In another thread here, it says, "The Afterburner has a drop down part underneath the Core voltage option which opens up the other voltage options, that is, if you have ticked the adjust voltage part in the Options menu of Afterburner." Not in my version of AfterBurner. I downloaded and installed the latest non-Beta version.
There's no Triple-Overvolting Option in the regular version of AfterBurner or any of the Beta versions I've ever checked out, even though the advertising copy says that these cards have this option. If they do, then exactly how do I access these extra functions? These functions are part of the package I bought when I purchased these cards.
On one of my GTX580 Lightning XE's, the APS function works on one card, but not the other. Of course, with mine it's the bottom card, so do I have to remove both cards, place the one that doesn't react to the APS, move the switch to the LN BIOS, restart the computer, turn the APS back on, turn the computer off and move the LN switch back to "Normal"? Will this make both cards react to the APS together, or do I have to download and use 2 copies of the APS? One for each card? Or does APS simply not work on more than one card?
When people have trouble with MSI's AfterBurner program, which comes on every CD packaged with every MSI card I've ever owned, why are we sent to another Forum site with our problem? If you have a problem with your Chevrolet, the dealer and their mechanics don't send you to a Ford dealer. They take care of it themselves.
Help me, please. From what others have posted, I'm certainly not the only Lightning owner with these exact same problems.

Safe voltage for Fermi 114 GPU (MSI GTX 560 TI oc)

Morning gents (or evening, depending on your time zone).
Have a few questions that I hope someone could answer and put my doubts to rest.
I've been told that each unit/card has an unique GPU voltage. Seen the voltage of my 560 TI (o/C version) vary between 0,95 v in idle to a 1 v in load. First thing I was wondering is if the said voltage is fixed/determined by the VGA BIOS ... like a fixed value ? Or rather like a low limit and a high limit ? Or is it set by hardware ?
Are there (defined by nVidia I suppose) some "safe" values for the voltage of a 560 TI chip ? I.e. between 0,95 to 1,05v ... or rather along the line of "should you decide to overclock do not go over 1.25v" ?
Thank you in advance.

basically the "safe" is assumed from what you can adjust from AB.
by safe, its meaning acceptable, since basically there is no such thing as safe OC

Max safe voltage for 24/7 OC

I have an A64 3200+ CG stepping clawhammer. Right now I am stable at 240X10 at 1.7 volts. At this overclock I am under full load at only 43celcius and idle at 36. So what do you guys think the max voltage would be for a 24/7 overclock?

Thats not bad. The stock voltage is 1.45v right? 1.7 is kinda, high . I leave my pc on 24/7 and i was uncomfortable going from 1.525v to 1.535 . Thats just me. If you want to cut the life of your cpu in half, okay then! If you dont plan on upgrading for a few years, BAAAD idea
Thats a heck of a overclock for a A64! Nice job. Nice temps too, but voltage is more of a life cutting factor than voltage

Maximum safe fill for Raid-5 without hot spare?

What is the percentage of total capacity that can be used while still maintaining security blanket of the RAID-5 parity data?
I have two 7-drive arrays, neither include a spare, and simple logic suggests that the total data should not exceed the formatted capacity of six of the seven drives. Is it possible that six drives could manage, say, six-and-a-half drives worth of data via parity data, in the event the seventh drive fails?
Various G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

In addition to William's comment re utilization, the maximum space you can get from a 7-disk RAID 5 volume is 6 drives-worth.
That is, seven 500GB drives results in 6 x 500GB usable space, or 3,000 GB. It is not possible to extend the usable space into the seventh drive.
In RAID 5, all data is spread across all drives in the array, so there isn't actually a spare drive, or a single parity drive. RAID 3 uses a separate parity disk, but even in that configuration you cannot use space on the parity drive as user data because it's little more than a 1:1 map of the blocks on the data drives - any data on the parity space is interpreted as the parity data for the corresponding blocks on the other drives. If you stored real data in that space it would totally hose the corresponding data on the user-space disks.

HELP! - Voltages for Overclocking Q9450 on the MSI P7N Diamond (780i chipset)

Hey. I fully understand the settings as far as frequencies go, but am a total voltage newb. No matter what I do I cant seem to get a stable vista load up with my voltage settings.
Please help me by providing suggested voltage settings for my hardware.
CPU - Intel Core2Quad Q9450
RAM - 6 gigs of DDR2-800 rated at 2.1V
VIDEO - Dual Nvidia Geforce 8800GT's in SLI
MOBO - MSI P7N Diamond, based off the Nvidia Nforce 780i SLI chipset
My cooling is sufficient, and I have the BIOS version 1.2
I also turned off all of the overclocking not friendly functions, example: spread spectrum, and DOT, ETC....
I am trying to run my CPU at 3.2 GHZ (400 mhz before multiplier)
my settings I want are (as shown in the P7N bios)
System Clock Mode - Manual
FSB clock - 1600
DRAM clock - 800
Please help me by providing the proper voltages for my setup
Everything I need is marked by "???"
CPU Voltage - ???
DRAM Voltage - (already have, its 2.1)
NB voltage - ???
SB voltage - ???
NB Memory reference voltage - ???
DIMM memory reference voltage - ???
Memory terminator voltage - ???
CPU GTL reference voltage - ???
NB GTL reference voltage - ???
FSB terminator voltage - ???
SB sleep mode voltage - ???
PCI Expander PLL voltage - ???
For the sake of you not typing too much, if you specify voltages, any that you do not specify will be assumed to be left at [AUTO]
PLEASE help me by providing some voltages for me, as I have absolutely no clue what to put for them. If you have any questions about my hardware feel free to ask, and any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED

adjusting gtl ref. voltages isn't very difficult, but it is probably best to learn the basics first.
So, basically, increase the fsb a little. So, for example, from 1333 to 1400. See if it's stable, if it isn't try bumping up vcore one notch and try again. If not try Northbridge. Then later move on to stuff like the fsb term.
Test stability using prime95, there is a 64-bit multi-core aware version floating around somewhere. Try the ftp server linked to in the "hot use prime95" sticky on here.
Tbh with your OC you shouldn't need to touch any other voltages, or really use the gtl ref settings. What exactly is "sufficient" cooling though? Stock?
*EDIT: on a side note, just so you don't think I'm deliberately being awkward not telling you specific voltages, they wouldn't do you any good. Every cpu/mobo can handle different freq. at different voltages. Also, use cpu-z to check on your actual voltage and make sure you don't raise it beyond 1.3625 (I think that's right, it's 1.36something anyway)
Thanks for the tips. The reason I wanted to jump straight to FSB 1600 is because the MSI p7n is really picky and only likes 1:1 ratios.
My "sufficient cooling" is an aftermarket heatsink, high performance thermal paste, and MASSIVE airflow through my case. If you want specifics, its the Scythe Zipzang

CPU Voltage - No one can tell you this.
NB voltage - Depends on what frequency you want
SB voltage - What's your HDD setup?
NB Memory reference voltage - Auto
DIMM memory reference voltage - Auto
Memory terminator voltage - Auto
CPU GTL reference voltage - Depends on speed and other voltages
NB GTL reference voltage - Same as above
FSB terminator voltage - Depends on CPU voltage and CPU/FSB clock speed
SB sleep mode voltage - Auto
PCI Expander PLL voltage - Auto
My recommendation is do some reading. Guessing leads to dead hardware.
6GBs smells like mixing modules... Or do you have 3 modules?
First of all, I already stated the frequencies that I wanted in the top post, and fairly clearly at that.
CPU shouldnt be too hard to figure out, as there are very few to choose from. I'll try to get back to you on that one
I have 5, 7200rpm SATA 3.0 drives. It sometimes runs with only 4, as one is a hot swap.
My ram IS mixed, unfortunately. I'm using 2x 1gig sticks, and 2x 2gig sticks. However, both sets have heatsinks, and are rated at 800mhz, 4-4-4-12, 2t, timings. (2.1v)
I AM running them in dual channel.
If this helps you suggest voltages please do, If not, then I will just have to start trying using nihilkrist's suggestions.

Maximum HD size for MDD G4?

Hi there
I had a real pain in the proverbial when trying to do a clean install of Panther (or Tiger) on a 1Ghz G4 on a new 200 Gb HD. There were instablilities, Hands on shout down/restarts, etc, before running any updates or 3rd party apps.
Is there a maximum HD size for these Macs? It came with a 80Gb HD.
Thanks for any help...

Some RAM that worked under prior versions of OS X has been known to fail. Tiger makes much more use of all available RAM for cache is part of the reason. Memtest would give it a good workout overnight.
MDDs support Cable Select, it depends in part on the IDE cable itself. In fact, you could use it on older Macs and controllers most of the time.
Never apply an update without first doing a backup and some disk repair and maintenance. Even flushing the cache folders with something like Applejack. Never use your Mac while an update is taking place. Reboot prior to applying an update, might want to use Safe Boot Mode. And use the standalone updates, and the combo update if possible. On some occasions it was necessary to reapply the combo update.
With Tiger, I found that while it was possible to update, a full erase and install resulted in a better OS. So backup.
If you keep your home directory or backup on another drive, so much the easier and better.

What's the maximum output voltage of labview

hi
i want to give 0 to 10v to the oscillator circuit so for that i would like to know that maximum output voltage of labview because i want to oprate my oscillator using labview program

hussey,
this discussion has no worth.
We KNOW that you want to generate voltage using the programming language LV.
Since no programming language in the world is able to generate voltage without dedicated hardware, repeating "I want to use LV to generate voltage" several times will not bring you anywhere.
What kind of hardware do you have for voltage generation mounted in you PC?
What else do you want to generate except DC voltage (controlling an oscillator could include also AC voltage stimulation...)?

Can I make Photoshop CS5 work with a 6 year old onboard GPU?

Recently, my graphics card stopped working, so I've been forced to use an onboard GPU until I can get the money to buy a new one. The problem though, is that the onboard GPU is VERY old (approximately 6 or so years), and every time I try to save something in photoshop CS5, the program crashes without even giving me an error message. Is there some way I can change the settings in CS5 to make it work? The GPU options in the preferences tab is already grayed out and has OpenGL automatically disabled, but I'm still having problems.

That's probably utterly unrelated to Photoshop. In so many words: The driver from your dedicated graphics card has left remnants and configuration information and Windows itself is trying to use it when drawing fiel dialogs etc.. Short of reinstalling the operating system from scratch it's probably nothing that can be fixed fully, but feel free to check your device manager and registry for that info. Though, really, in that 5 hours it would take you could just as well do that OS reinstall...

Laptop for Photoshop - GPU (Nvidia vs AMD) + Display (IPS vs TN) questions - please help

Hi, I am helping someone with getting a new laptop for PhotoShop work, and am very confused about a couple of things.
Hoping that the pros on this forum can help.
1. Dedicated Graphics card - needed or not?
If needed, AMD Radeon/FirePro (difficult to find on laptops) or Nvidia GeForce GTX 6xxM/7xxM or Quadro?
2. Suggestions on laptops with an IPS panel and wide color gamut.
Re. 1 - this is very confusing. From what I researched, the new Photoshop versions (CS6 and above) do use the GPU very effectively, and are using OpenCL rather than CUDA. Yet there are people on some forums that say that a GPU is not needed unless editing video.
My friend is not editing video - he is using Photoshop to create Digital Art. He does use all of the Photoshop features in his work. No 3D work, no video editing. The end result is Printed artwork - sometimes large prints 3 ft x 4 ft printed with geeclee on canvas/high quality paper.
Is a GPU needed, and if so is it better to get the AMD cards (Radeon most likely) that seem to completely outperform the GeForce cards in OpenCL at least?
Most of the laptops available seem to have the GTX 6xxM or 7xxM cards, and I read on one forum that the OpenCL functions are disabled on these cards. Read on another forum that it can be re-enabled with a hack. Thorougly confused. Please help.
Re. 2 - This too is confusing. Seems like an IPS panel has the best color rendition, but then they do not cover the entire color spectrum - or at least not as widely as the TN panels. If this will be the only monitor for work, is an IPS panel the best way to go or is it better to get a TN with wide gamut? Are there laptops with both - an IPS panel and a wide color gamut - without breaking the bank?
Currently the Sager/Clevo machines, and some MSI models, and ASUS models seem to be the best candidates. Had to rule out Dell Precision 6700/4700 and HP Elitebook 8770W/8570W due to price, but considering refurbished ones.
I am working with a $1200 budget with maybe some stretchability. Any advice/suggestions will be much appreciated.

At the potential risk of your pretending to kick me off what you misguidedly perceive as your thread—which by the way you would have no right to do, since you do not own a thread just because you started it—I'll have a couple of comments on your original thoughts.
There's no reason to be "confused" here.
1.— Utilization of the GPU is indeed always beneficial to using recent versions of Photoshop, regardless of whether you work with video or not. Whether you "need it or not" is a different discussion.
2.— Of course it's absolutely necessary to be able to work with a monitor that has a narrower gamut than your working space or even your output target profile. In my case, for example, as I'm 99.9% concerned with high quality prints, I work exclusively in ProPhoto RGB. I'd be in a pickle if I were to restrict my work to just what I can see on any monitor regardless of how wide its gamut were.
One just has to learn how to work in Photoshop. That's what Gamut Warning and Soft Proofing are there, for example. Printers are capable of printing some colors that are not visible on any monitor.
3.— If both the video card and/or its driver fail to support Open GL and Shader Model, no "hack" on Earth can make up for it.
4.— If someone came to me for advice on a laptop on which to run Photoshop well, my main and perhaps only goal would be to dissuade that person from wasting his or her money.
I know there might be flak from some laptop users for that immediately preceding paragraph, but hopefully not as much as you're likely to get—and deservedly so—from Mac Pro users for your astonishingly uninformed comments on those machines.
One thing is having a laptop as a second machine on which to show your Photoshop work to clients and prospective clients when forced to, and another one is trying to use a laptop as one's main, working Photoshop machine.
Going to a laptop publication (which I gather the obscure, niche-market "NBR" you cite is) for information on whether to use one or not is like seeking theological religious advice about world religions from the Pope in the Vatican or the Ayatollah in Tehran.
5.— In the past I had run Photoshop on a variety of different nVidia GeForce cards with up to 512 MB of VRAM, but with Photoshop CS6's more advanced utilization of the GPU I have moved to a mutant, factory-overclocked, flashed ATI Radeon HD 5770 with 1 GB of VRAM driving side-by-side dual 22" monitors in my current desktop Mac Pro 2.66 GHz under OS X Lion 10.7.5 and I couldn't possibly be happier.
I do run my second copy of Photoshop on my Mac Book (not "Pro") laptop with its stock Intel GMA 950 video circuitry and its paltry 64 MB of shared system memory, and it works just fine for the aforementioned purposes of showing Photoshop work to others. I wouldn't want to do any editing in Photoshop on that machine other than for minor touch-ups in an emergency, however.
Lastly, I feel compelled to add that, in my opinion, basic human decency would dictate that you offer Trevor some sort of apology for your presumptuousness in asking him to leave this thread. If I hadn't already begun typing this post before you posted your #6, I might have just ignored your thread. Considering the overall anti-laptop tenor of this post, you may well wish I had.

MSI KT3V low maximum core voltage

Hey guys
I'm very angry,because my kt3v have max. core voltage at 1,7V.Where i can find unofficial or beta bios for higer voltages? 1,7V is too low for good overclocking. I use at xp 1700+ (t-bred) and i have stable only 171 x 11.5.I heard that this cpu can run at higer speeds than 1974 mhz.
Where i can find any solution for this voltage?

I had the same problem. Not enough voltage to get my 1700+ past 1907 without stability issues. I used a defogger kit and closed all the L11 bridges on the processor which basically set the default voltage for the CPU at 1.85. Now when I go in to BIOS, the voltage is already set to 1.85, which I think is the max on most newer MSI boards. I never found a beta BIOS anywhere that got around that +/- .1 volt thing. There are also some guides out there about modifying the processor socket with small wires to jumper different pins together to alter the Vcore, but I didn't want to risk putting the wires in the wrong holes...heh. I only had to close 2 L11 bridges on my processor to get the default Vcore to 1.85 and they weren't that close together so it only took about 5 minutes to do it and it works like a champ. Good luck!

APSB13-10: Whats considered the maximum safe max post params

We recently applied the APSB13-10 update to CF9 and have run into issues with applications. With the setting defaulted only to 100, compared to tomcat's 10,000 max post param default, I am wondering what the reason behind the 100 default is and what is considered the max safe value for this setting. There are no specific details in the CVEs or the APSB-13-10 bulletin that seem to indicate what this is for. Also the details in the adobe bulletin versus the CVEs seem to contradict each other murkying exactly what the vulnerabilities are that are being patched.
The descrepency I am refering to is in the adobe bulletin you state "This hotfix resolves an information leak that can occur in certain multi-threaded use cases. This issue is not exploitable remotely (CVE-2013-1387)." However when looking at that particular CVE it says "Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe ColdFusion 9.0 before Update 10, 9.0.1 before Update 9, 9.0.2 before Update 4, and 10 before Update 9 allows attackers to impersonate users via unknown vectors." Not remotely exploitable information leakage is much differeing that impersonating users.
Are two remotely exploitable issues being fixed as noted by the CVEs, or is the one CVE really only an information leak? What does max post param setting have to do with either of these issues being patched, and what is considered a safe maximum post param setting?

It is possible that they made a mistake when installing the updates, one of the things that our HackMyCF service checks for in the commercial version is hotfix installation errors, so we often see cases where user error in installing the hotfix can lead to other issues.

Safe charger for a zen?

Hello everyone,
So far my zen 6 gig has been great! But I was wondering I have a charger A macally model number IP-A4. I used to use it on my sansa e250 before that bit the dust. It says the input is 00-240v AC. The output is 5v DC. Is this safe or will it fry my battery or decrease it's lifespan. Any input will be greatly appreciated.
Redsoxsfan,

Re: Safe charger for a zen?h

Leaving your player in a hot car probably does more lifespan damage to your battery (heat is a deteriorating factor in Lithium Ion batteries).
I agree. I also uses other charger that does work with my Zen with same specs in charging the battery. It will not fry yoru battery. As long as you are charging within the time limit and not overcharging the unit so much, I guess you are doing ok. Sometimes its just the Ampheres and voltage that needs to be considered in chargers and these needs to be compatible with you LiIon batteries in yoru zen.

Core Voltage for 5820k on X99s Gaming 7

Hi there, I am new to the forums and MSI..
This is my first msi board, so far so good, I have the x99s Gaming 7 with i7-5820k, 16 GB 4x4 of Corsair Vengeance 2800 with 1000w EVGA P2 and NH-D15 cooler, 250GB Samsung 840 SSD and my video card is crap but I plan on getting gtx 970/980...
I was able to get 4.5 GHZ all I had to do was increase multiplier to 45 and core voltage to 1.35v
Here is my question...
I plan to run 24/7 and happy with 4.0 GHZ OC..
I left everything on auto and change my cpu vcore voltage to 1.14v..
I have my ram at 2666Mhz..
My idle temps are 38C-41c..with load at max of 63C after running for a few hours with aida64
I am curious to see what others have used for there vcore voltage for 4.0 Ghz OC
Any way to use my ram at 2800MHZ without using XMP?
Is there a way to have a variable vcore voltage, so that will use little power but ramp up when under load?
This is my first attempt at overclocking
PS what do you guys have your CPU fans set to I am using variable speeds starting with 50%@ 40C, can you give some recommendations?
Thanks

First, Welcome to overclocking.

What is the room/ambiant temperature
This CPU max Tcase is 66.8c, you may want to keep it below this except maybe for short time stress tests.
Quote from: gm.ambrosia
I am curious to see what others have used for there vcore voltage for 4.0 Ghz OC
For my CPU(different than yours) I have increased vcore 0.01v above stock.
I suggest you first see what cores VID is at default, set BIOS vcore until you get the same VID and take it from there. It may be stable with less or require a little more, every CPU is different.
Besode voltages CPU frequency ay be throttled if CPU power consumption reached it's limit. There are options in CPU Features to change power/current limits.
Everyone make their own definition of stable, so it's up to you what tests you want it to pass, I don't know AIDA's stress, but I believe Prime95 (v28.5 or above) would be much more stressful, and should not be a problem with your cooler/voltage.
Quote from: gm.ambrosia
Any way to use my ram at 2800MHZ without using XMP?
Sure, set DDR at the level you wish, and set timings and voltage manually according to specs.
The question is why not use XMP, uless you want it over 2800, and even then BIOS will scale some settings you wouldn't know to change manually according to its logic.
Quote from: gm.ambrosia

By default, that's how it works, vcore increases according to load, if not there are options in BIOS to change it. Set CPU Core Voltage Mode to adaptive if it is set to override by default.
I like HWiNFO for monitoring, it's free.
