start Ocing dude...let us know
Those who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags!  The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. When you abuse it, it reverses on you and it hurts you.The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way.

Looks good , it appears the previous PSU was going bad. Try to RMA it so you can get a new one. I am glad I was able to help and everything works well, as it should, in your rig

Well on gpu intensive games like The witcher 2 ive had fps jumps from 40-50 @ stock clocks now im 50-60+ fps @ 905mhz/1810 ( Keep in mind the settings are @ ultra and not Ubersampling). Bad company 2 doesnt even drop below 60 ever , even at stock clocks so i dunno. Trying crysis 2 in a bit so ill get back to you on that

Im guessing you didnt overclock your previous card the 570 or did you? was there some noticable improvment from the step-up?

I tried to do overclocking on my 570 but i kept getting constant crashes. I'm assuming i fixed that issue when i replaced my earthwatts 650 for a tx750w corsair. I had my 570 for 2 weeks and after a couple days of trying to get decent clocks out of it i just stepped up to a 580. i know if you can get a 850+ core on a 570 they start to compare to stock 580's

Good show. So it was the power supply eh? Wow. When you said it would crash with the EarthWatts. Was it freezing? Black screens? Artifacts?

Well when i had my earthwatts in.. if i would bring the clocks a little above stock even with a 570 or a 580 while i would be playing a gpu intensive game or benchmark it would black screen and the clocks would reset back to stock

Yeah that was kinda important leaving that out. That was certainly a possible power supply issue. I would still RMA the EarthWatts if under warranty and keep it for a spare. As that is still a good power supply. They have a easy RMA process as I went through it a few months ago. You just fill out the form online and they will send you RMA number. Ship it out and they will send you a brand new replacement.

Awesome please do that for me I'm really interested in seeing what i can do with mycard for more FPS. I've set my card to the SC settings i dunno if im getting much of a fps increase or not i assume its stable i haven't seen any artifactings or had strange crashing. what do you use to test stability???

I've been using Heaven 2.5 for testing stability and EVGA oc scanner for stability testing , Bad company 2 32x CSAA + 8x SSAA, crysis2 dx11 + Hi res pack , witcher2 Ultra + AA enabled, for video game testing. All with perfect results , ive had about 6-10 frame increase @ 905 core and have been lucky with being completely stable.
