Hey everyone! I've finally assembled my PC, here are the details:

Case: Antec Nine Hundred
Power Supply: Corsair RM850 80+ gold
CPU cooler: Hyper 212 EVO with 2 fans
SSD: 500 GB Crucial BX100
HDD: 500 GB SAMSUNG
WiFi card: TL-WDN4800
RAM: 16 GB DDR3 1600MHZ Corsair Dominator Platinum
GPU: nVidia GeForce GTX 780 (stock cooler) 3GD5 OC'd
[Link to OC page]
CPU: i7 4790K 4.0 GHz @ 4.6 GHz
OS: Windows 10 64 bits
Screen: LG Flatron E2211 Full HD 21.5"
Keyboard: Logitech G510S
Mouse: Razer Abyssus
Mouse Pad: Razer Vespula
Headset: Logitech G35

I'm eager to push my system to its limits. First, is the GPU's overclocking satisfactory? Can I squeeze even more performance from this card? Second, is my CPU running at a high frequency? I've noticed some people achieving better results with higher overclocks, especially with the Hyper 212 EVO and dual fans. I'm currently getting around 75 FPS at full load.

That's all for now. If anyone has tips to further boost my frame rate—even though those FPS are great in GTA V—I'd really appreciate it. I'm always looking for ways to improve and believe PCs can do much more than we think.

Thanks, everyone!
Happy New Year 2016!!

Your GPU is quite impressive, but 980TI offers superior performance mainly due to its VRAM. Only by addressing the bottleneck could you achieve better results, which would require purchasing a 980TI card or another 780 card—both are costly, and the advantages might not justify the expense for you.

Regarding overclock potential, it really hinges on various factors. First, it depends on your specific chip; some will support higher overclocks than others, making overclocking less predictable.

To maximize your chip's overclock potential, create an ideal setup with a high-quality power supply and a reliable motherboard. Ensure voltage regulation is tight and noise levels are minimal. Then assess how much further you can push the performance.

Regarding overclock potential, it really hinges on various factors. First, it depends on your specific chip; some processors support higher overclocks than others, making overclocking less predictable.

To maximize your chip’s overclock potential, ensure a stable environment with a high-quality power supply and a solid motherboard where voltage regulation is precise and noise levels are minimal. Then, gradually increase the frequency and voltage while monitoring temperatures to avoid crashes.

An i7 at 4.6 GHz works well, and pushing it further isn’t necessary. You might consider overclocking RAM as well, but the gains would likely be small.

There seems to be a misunderstanding. The message is asking about improving software performance, not about replying to a reply.

thank you for the reply m8
😀
can there be a method to improve performance with certain programs?
Depending on the software, some may face issues due to lack of enough RAM or incorrect disk configuration.
For rendering tasks, having 32-64 GB of RAM and an SSD drive would help.
For workstations, it's recommended to use one drive for the OS, another for temporary storage, and a third for general storage.

I'm just playing, doing a small render, that's all.
