    Nvidia Overclocking?

    I have a GTX 650 card. Are there any Linux tools to overclock this card? I have looked but none seem to work for Linux Mint 16 Cinnamon.

    AMD A10 5800K @ 4.48ghz

    I got good equipment. Not top of the line. Still, the Processor, ram, video card is capable of more. I think water cooling has a better chance than air of keeping temps in line. I hope to crank her up and still be safe and secure. I might have got out cheaper by buying a more powerful...

    AMD A10 5800K @ 4.48ghz

    I have wanted to do this for years. I got to admit no sane person would want water in electronics.

    AMD A10 5800K @ 4.48ghz

    I could not help it. So I got a Corsair Hydro Series H110 Extreme Performance water cooler! Maybe this AMD chimp will do more. Plus this kit will fit Intel Processors should I change my mind...

    AMD A10 5800K @ 4.48ghz

    Boot seemed faster. Opening files seemed faster. I didn't run any games or videos yet.

    AMD A10 5800K @ 4.48ghz

    I did a little research about some linux benchmark software. Ubuntu has some that may do it. So, perhaps Mint does too. Also, I have been craving a water cooler.

    AMD A10 5800K @ 4.48ghz

    Sorry, I made a typo. The overclock is 4.48ghz not 4.8.

    AMD A10 5800K @ 4.48ghz

    I have achieved a nice little overclock on the AMD 3.8/4.2 quad 5800k at 4.8ghz. The motherboard is an MSI FM2 A85XA-G65. I got this on the stock heatsink fan. The settings are 102x44 and volts at 1.5. I did not run run it long. Temp seemed to stay a 61c. I believe this temp is ok by AMD...

    MSI FM2-A85XA-G65 Motherboard won't save date & time

    I feel silly. Heck I used shortwave radios and times are UTC. I kick myself for not seeing the connection. I was on a semi serious hunt for another board. I got a short explanation from my local PC Guru. It is that way because Windows is broken Linux is not. In a dual boot it is easier to break...

    MSI FM2-A85XA-G65 Motherboard won't save date & time

    Darn. It looks like the systems want to save in UTC time. I think a linux UEFI coordinated kind of thing. It took me forever to note that as the wrong times in bios were consistant. I think I am right and now I feel silly. Ha!:)

    Raspberry Pi Model B

    I have had my Pi for a good little while. Neat little gadget. Slow as heck but just dandy for web surfing. It may do a lot more but my skills are limited. I am kind of slobbering over an Odroid.

    MSI FM2-A85XA-G65 Motherboard won't save date & time

    I have an AMD 5800K quad on a MSI FM2-A85XA-G65 motherboard. It won't save date and time. Sometimes it will sometimes it won't. I save and reboot and go back into the bios the right date and time is displayed. I reboot the correct date is displayed but the time is wrong. Sometimes the time is...

    Yup, but at least they are talking about it. Maybe there is more info on the site. Kind of tough digging around in their forums.

    All his friends love Roblox, Minecraft, Ninjago. He has a friend in Roblox that lives outside of the US. He says his friend talks funny. And this is from typing. Kind of gives you an idea of how the young relate these days and that is through tech.
