Proof Is In For Cause Of Poor Ivy Bridge Overclocking Temperature
May 13, 2012
After a ton of speculation, a bit of denial, and a ton of testing we finally have our answer. The thermal interface material change made by Intel when it went from Sandy Bridge to Ivy Bridge is indeed the cause of the excessive temperatures weve observed while overclocking. The first accusation was made in late-April by Overclockers.com, however proving it wasn't easy. The Japanese division of PC Watch somehow managed to remove the integrated heat spreader from a Core i7 3770k, along with the stock binding and grease. They then proceed to replace it with aftermarket alternatives, and the results speak for themselves.
Well ive heard that Ivy bridge boost 20% performance and huge in GPU.I dont need Built in GPU.Ivy has integrated USB3.0, PCI 3.0 and thunderbird.Is it really worth to wait for the new Ivy Bridge i5 3570k? versus i5 2500k?I have a lesson for the previous CPU. Bought 3 computer Socket 1156 after 2 months of release!The result? i always got a BSOD.The Sandy bridge 1st release has a problem also with the chipset.If i remember they fix after 2 weeks with the new B3 design.Now guys because im really excited on Ivy bridge.The release date is April 08, 2012 What can you say? is it really safe buying for only a 1 month old after the release? Lets say i wait to buy on May 01, 2012?.Amd is creating a PCI 3.0 Hd 7 Series.
I noticed an interesting attack on my fully patched windows 7 home premium system at the standard user level: I don't know exactly how this was done, but I do have some traces (Keep in mind that I had disabled UPnP services beforehand):
1. Auto proxy checker had executed.
2. Teredo Tunneling and about 15 ISATAP tunneling adapters were created.
3. Malware successfully bypassed my two-way firewall and transmitted to the outside.
It looks like malware is able to successfully use ipv6 Teredo Tunneling and ISATAP tunneling to confuse my two-way firewall and use tunneling loops to send traffic outside. I had UPnP blocked, but they used tunneling tricks to bypass the firewall rules.Because the use of tunneling loops bypassed my firewall rules I would like to permanently disable the actual services for VPN and tunneling on my Windows 7 machine. What services need to be disabled to make my Windows 7 machine absolutely VPN and tunnel proof?
i just installed PC Lin-Q (USB 2 High Speed Bridge Cable) between tow of my Desktop Computers #1 Windows 7 RC1 and #2 Windows XP Pro SP3, installed to Windows 7 RC1 as Windows XP SP3 compat and it works fine !
I was fixing my other laptop and I wiped my external HDD thinking it was the laptop's HDD by mistake. I cleaned it via CMD(SELECT DISK 1, CLEAN) Any ideas to make it back to normal?
I received this error twice today for the first time in ten years (CPU Over Temperature Error! Press F1 to Resume)I am using w7 32bit and I also checked to see if all my fans were working and they where.

After having rather high hopes for SSD Performance...I'm disappointed.I'm glad I got a test unit, because if I would've shelled out the cabbage for this, I'd be a little PO'd.I have an 8300 Quad Core 2.5 Intel with 4GB of RAM running Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit.Instead of trying to clone the old drive, I did what I thought was right and did a fresh install.I loaded up MSE, Office 2010 and all Windows Updates.Did a couple of tweaks (made sure defrag was off, DMA mode on instead of PIO, disabled indexing)I have all the latest chipset, mobo, video, etc., drivers.Yes, it boots into Windows to the desktop faster. No doubt.Yes, it opens up windows faster and programs SOMETIMES as well.But it multitasks terrible. If I'm download, installing, etc., anything...and try to move program to program, it's slow. To the point I think it's freezing up.I've read a few of the tweaks here...and I'm missing something I think.It's an Imation 2.5" M series 64GB drive. I know it's not the Vertex 2...but it has pretty decent specs behind it. Not the best, but it should do everything my SATA platter drive does better...period.It doesn't.What should I be looking for? (It shipped with the latest firmware, and trim is turned on...not like that matters since I only installed Win7Pro fresh a few hours ago...)
I bought a LENOVO G560 laptop, initially my laptop was working just fine, but latter it started to dissatisfy me.I am facing a lot of problem, and most recently my display is going wrong. It abruptly flashes if I switch on my laptop for an hour.
i have just built a new rig and i'm having a couple of problems. as i said in the title i have a msi 560 on a asus p67 mobo with a intel i5 2500.i've had the computer for about 2 months now and a few days ago, when i started the computer, a message saying "disk read error, push ctrl + alt + delete" came up. i restarted my comp' a few times and it eventually booted. then today the same message came up and i went through the same process and i got the computer to boot again.this i could deal with however, my computer now has been on for about 16 hours (no big deal) but now it wont play Internet videos and huge artifacts and random triangles and things com up in games like battlefield bc2. the reason i put the time up here is that when i first started the computer it was doing video things fine.
I've been having some BSOD probs, so I'm currently updating all of my drivers. The only one I can't find an update for is called PCI Standard Host CPU Bridge. Could you point me in the right direction, so I can get the update?
Also, for some reason, PCI Standard Host CPU Bridge is listed twice in Device Manager... and both entries seem identical. Would this mean I have to update both?

I use a network bridge between my wireless and wired adapters to put my 360 on Live, because the 360 Wireless Network Adapter is just waaaay too expensive. Anyway, it all worked completely fine under XP, but I just installed 7 and there's a couple of things I'm having trouble with... The network icon in the sytem tray shows either... well, I'm not sure exactly what icon it is when the 360 is on, or a disconnected wireless network icon when it isn't...
what I'd like is the normal wireless network icon with the signal bars (this is more of an annoyance, but I get really annoyed by stuff like this). More seriously, under (as far as I can tell) the same configuration as XP, the 360 can't get an IP address from my router.
If I set it to a static IP, it connects to Live, but complains about "moderate NAT" or some crap, and says that will stop me connecting to some games or players (and it does).
I'm using a bridged connection so that my ps3 can connect through my computer (better speed then with ps3s wireless), but I have a small problem.
the ps3 can connect to the internet and everything seems to work fine, but after 10 min of gaming I will get a network error saying that I'm not connected to the internet.
After repairing it'll work again. Any idea whats wrong and how to fix it?
I am trying to find out why I can not get a temperature reading on my processor and/or the 4 cores. It doesn't matter what program I use...Core Temp, HWiNFO, OverDrive... they all show 0 degrees. [code]
I am using Windows Live Movie Maker & burning to a disc in Windows DVD maker. The images in the video are sharp in the downloaded video and in the preview frame in DVD maker but once burned to the disc and played back the faces of the people are quite blurry.
I'm having an ongoing wireless problem with my Windows 7 PC in that speeds are a lot slower than expected and I even get intermittent 'connected to network but no internet access' problems.I have two computers on my network: a Windows PC, and a Macbook. With the laptop my download speed is regularly 17mbps. But my PC can barely pass 7mbps. I ran speedtest with the laptop on the floor next to the PC so I know they both have the same line of sight to the router. My laptop also never drops the connection.This tells me that the router cannot be at fault and that it's setup correctly.I have the latest drivers for my PCI wireless adapter. Windows is up to date.Is it possible that the wireless adapter just isn't very good? (I bought it as it had good user reviews). Although it barely managers a signal strength higher than 2 bars (which according to Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector is about -85dbm Very poor!).Is it likely that some adapters work better with some makes of router? I have a Netgear router and the adapter it TP-Link.
i am using wireless internet with my laptop pc in windows 7 i use a shared connection in my appartment and i have some problems now!:
1-i was using internet properly for months without problems
2-my wifi signal strengh was 3 at minimum and my connection speed was near 20 mbps always but from 2-3 days ago i have some problems like:
-my signal strengh is 1 or maximum 2 and
-my speed connection is only 2-3 mbps and sometimes even dissconnect severaly during connection
-i am not able to use the maximum speed like before with my laptop but this problem is only belong to my laptop i dont have same problem with my desktop pc(the only problem with desktop pc is the signal strengh)note:
*the router is in same position that it was before
*i have low speed even when i am behind the router (1 feet!)
*i only have this problem with my laptop,not with my pc and phone
I have Windows 7 (x64) build 7264 installed and encrypted on a 32GB SSD.
(I also have a 1TB drive for storage.)
I installed it about a week ago and lately it has been becoming sluggish and unresponsive at times. Mostly when loading webpages with lots of pictures or videos. I've tried 3 different browsers with the same result. When watching streaming video, it freezes randomly for a few seconds at a time when playing (but the video play bar shows that it's loaded way past the point where it freezes). I don't think it's my internet connection, because it's pretty fast (university) and I don't have these problems in ubuntu. Also, iTunes sometimes takes 5-10 seconds to gain window focus when I click on it.
I'm having trouble pinpointing where the problem lies. It's obviously not the memory. The processor does't seem to be under a heavy load (and it has 4 cores). Could it be the SSD somehow? It is one of the cheaper ones. My ubuntu installation is on the regular hd and works fine.
I have been having this very annoying problem for over 2 months now. I'm running windows 7 ultimate 64-bit and Most video on my pc looks very pixelated. I was able to get vlc to work correctly again with an update to the latest version and wmp seems to work fine too. I'm still having very low quailty video in my slingplayer, skype video and certain flash videos on the internet. I have been searching google for any possible solution like using an older video card driver, a vista driver, and adding codec's but nothing seems to work. I'm not really sure if it's an Nvidia,windows, or a flash problem.

my pc has 2 monitors plugged into it and i'm using ultramon I also have my cpu oc'd to 3ghz, so i put it back to stock speeds and still have the poor video qaulity so that wasn't it.
i normal run windows xp on my machine but currently trying out windows 7 but i have a small problem. ok so in xp i create a network bridge with my wireless card and ethernet so that i can connect my xbox 360 to the internet without buying the wireless adapter. now when i try to do this in windows 7 i get an error that says. To create a Network Bridge, you must select atleat two LAN or High-Speed Internet connections that are not being used by Internet Connection Sharing. im useing a lan connection and a high speed wireless connection isnt that all i need....and if it's because of intnert connection sharing how do i turn that off in windows
I have two network adpatro in win 7 one is lan card network adpator that use ip 10.1.4.100/16 Gw 10.1.1.249 one is VPN network adpator .If it enable , the IP will ber 192.168.2.X /24 .
I want to make bridge and so , the computer from 10.1.4.XXX /16 can use my computer to reach the 19.1.68.2.x . In this case , my PC work as a router .
I try to make bridge with above two adaptor . But after enable the bridge, I still cannot ping ,telnet 192.168.2.XXX from 10.1.4.xxx PC even after setup the route table .
my wireless USB network adapter crapped out on me recently, so I'm trying to run internet through my wireless laptop to my PC using a network bridge but for some reason the internet speed wont stay high. its starts out good and then gets really slow. both laptop and pc are running windows 7 enterprise. keep the internet running at a steady pace?
