hello everyone,
I NEED HELP. A year ago I decided to build my own machine (ga-x58a-ud3r + i7-930 + 12gb ram: 6x2gb Kingston 1600 + gtx480). I haven´t still tried to overcloked anyting. I use it for rendering 3D images, but I´ve noticed that is rendering too slow for my specs.
So I decided to do a 3dMark vantage test, and the results confirms that my gtx is doing great, but my i7930 is performing less than a half of what is expected to. Then I installed cpu-z and could see that my cores are running at aprox. x14 1800mhz but they are supposed to run at x21 2800mhz. And when I try to render They go down to x9 or x10.
I´m not sure how to view my cores temperature, but in BIOS I can see that they are at 90ºc.
I would like to fix this issue, or at least, know if something is wroken so i can change it. Then I would love to try a bit of overcloking, maybe 3,6 or 3,8ghz in order to be able to finnish 3D render much quicker.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your attention, and sorry for my english. I´m not sure if this is the correct place for this post, but I´m so frustated that I had to try anything.
