Updated Rig, teething problems?
I updated my rig to :
AMD FX-4100
Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2PT (BIOS: FC)
Everything else's the same, except no SP1 of Win 7.
I had some problems (while trying to run Win 7 of old install), for starters display kept going into standby, I discovered that the GPU was hot, I mean really hot! I took it out reseated and took the pesky wires out of the fan's way and re-formatted and clean installed the OS. I also enabled SMART & turned off something called Core Performance Boost (which I thought may cause problems, does it?).
It's been running ok since, I ran prime 95 for 25 mins. (On CoreTemp I adjusted the offset to 11 - max temp. was 59 deg. C, lowest 25 degrees.) and later took a furmark 720p test with Post FX on & off. I'm posting the results.
Any thoughts on the stability of the system?
