Topic: 2600k at 4500mhz max settings & Hyper threading question

My current rig is a 2600k at 4500mhz on a Gigabyte p67-ud4-b3 MB with 8GB of ddr3 1600 mem at 9,9,9,24,1t sporting 2 4gb EVGA GTX770 classified cards in SLI. Hooked to a 60htz panasonic VT30 55" plasma TV via HDMI.

Even with this powerful CPU OverClocked I can not run at max settings 1920-800 and 1920-1080 with some videos But I am keeping my motion vectors grid at the default levels. even when it does run with the strongest artifact masking wide search etc. i am still getting artifacts.

Is SVP so taxing that it needs more CPU power. Also I have made sure MY GPU is not overtaxed with MADvr settings and I track my frame rate with fraps.

Also is Hyper threading beneficial or not? I believe it is since i vaguely recall trying it with HT disabled and performance dropped.

Any tips on settings would be appreciated I am using the latest version 3.1.6 install package with MPC_HC.

Thanks ahead of time.

My current rig is a 2600k at 4500mhz
Congratulations! wink

This TV has not bad analog SVP called 600Hz Sub-field Drive. Why you don't use it?

I can not run at max settings 1920-800 and 1920-1080
It is not recommended to use MAXIMAL settings. See FAQ: What are the best settings?. Use default settings from 5g profiles set: SVP tray menu - Video profiles - Reset to defaults

i am still getting artifacts
Of course. Max settings not mean max quality. They mean max CPU and GPU load wink

is Hyper threading beneficial or not?
For SVP it gives about 20% of performance growing.

Re: 2600k at 4500mhz max settings & Hyper threading question

Thanks for the reply Mag....the reason I do not use the TV's SVP is because The smooth video Program just looks a lot better playing a MKV copy of a Bluray disc instead of the original bluray playing on a Panasonic 3D player. I know it is not the best Blu ray player out there but when I first purchased my tv well over 2 years ago it was all I could afford to watch 3D.
Plus a MKV file library is so much more convenient then breaking out a disc.

As  for max settings I mean the SVP settings for each resolution. When it drops frames and lags is the only time the CPU is getting over 90% usage
