Is this a joke? I can't disable HPET on my Z97-Deluxe? If my 80$ asrock could, I'd expect the same from a 280$ board (which cost 340$ on my country)...

Thanks! Latency went down to 15~50. Will disabling core-parking increase the power consumption?

I don't have any other monitoring software, my hard page faults are also very high, going up to 2.6 million us according to LatencyMon. I tried disabling my network adapter and my latency went all the way down to 30-40. does that mean my internet cable / card is bad?

Hi, my latency is always above 150us, and it spikes to ~800us every few seconds. I think it's a little bit high. shouldn't it be lower? around 50? I tried enabling HPET in bios (usually off), and it didn't help. enabling HPET in bios+windows (useplatformclock) only increased the latency. so I'm...

Hey guys. I don't know if this is related to the motherboard or the case. but anyway.. I'm using an asrock z77 pro 3 motherboard and a fractal define xl r2 case my headphones plug stopped working completely. i tried to take off the front case panel and see if it's loose but it's actually a...

You meant these? http://i.imgur.com/A8NDfa5.png The first line says 'Device managers that don't fit Plug & Play'

It changed from 3MHz to 14MHz, but latency is still very high! take a look: http://i.imgur.com/VVpemID.png

Thanks for the replies guys, I have done everything you said. the latency is still high. :( Ran latencymon for only two minutes, and the results are: http://i.imgur.com/V9nTQN1.png I did update SSD and motherboard to the latest firmware a few weeks ago (mobo only has one which was released in...

@Rouge, only a razer mouse (deathadder) @mdmcaf, yes I did, tried front, rear, even the usb ports on my monitor lol

Hi. I'm using windows 7 64 bit. I have stuttering issues when scrolling pages in google chrome/firefox/chromium or any other browser, I also experience those stutters\lags in games like BF3 (even though FPS is always above 60). My pc specs are: AMD Phenom II 955 x4 @ 3.2GHz stock Scythe...

should I get this monitor if I have a 7970? that means no LB..

What do you mean by that? I live in europe, this is where i'm getting the Seasonic ECO. it's 85% power efficiency 80plus bronze. The Hynix RAM sticks are actually the cheapest ones avaiable. cheaper than any corsair/kingston/g.skill stick :)

Hi. finished choosing all the parts for my rig, but everyone that hears I picked the 3470 over 3570k tells me I did a mistake, and that a non-overclocked i5 won't be able to do much. I did not order the parts yet, so there is time to change things. I will be gaming mostly, recording gameplays...
