excedo Posted February 19, 2014 Posted February 19, 2014 what the heck do u do with 10 TB of space? i got a 200gb SSD + 1TB HDD in and about 900GB free :-D but i stuff all my data to a NAS with 6TB ;-) but there u go: 1tb SSD For now, I will never spend that much for a SSD. 1TB is also to much, Get just around the 200-250GB and just install your OS and games you REALLY play much, Mostly those games which requires much and long loading, Battlefield for example.

LA_Kings_Fan Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) I'd like to know how if you could share please Well first off ... WHAT AMD HD-6950 graphics card do you have exactly ? We need to find out if it's an original reference edition card, or a Vendors card that has the Dual BIOS installed on the card already ... IF it's NOT either of these, you may be SOL ? So what make and model number card do you own ? __________________________________________ I run a couple of owner groups over on OCN ... http://www.overclock.net/ ... one of them is my TOXIC HD-6950/70 graphics card group, and I have LOTS of info in my MAIN 1st post about it = http://www.overclock.net/t/1149079/showthread.php?s=bd8d1313c09af4210eda3f9b5ad8a046&t=1149079 Step-by-Step Guide to Un-Locking a DUAL BIOS Card w/ Switch, Thanks to LA_Kings_Fan Originally Posted by LA_Kings_Fan Step #1 - Install the card, turn on your computer and windows will most likely install the current driver before you can even install the CD software that came with the card. Step #2 - You can install the CD software, but to be honest the WIN 7 driver the system auto loads for you should work too, so you could skip to Step 3 I guess ? Step #3 - With things running, install GPU-Z and/or TriXX software or both ... then open the programs to review the Factory defaults of your card, note shaders and Core clocks etc. Step #4 - In GPU-Z or TriXX SAVE your factory BIOS of the card. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP. You might just need it in case something goes wrong and need to reinstall the factory BIOS file in case position #2 Unlocked BIOS FAILS, and flipping the switch back to position #1 won't reload the original BIOS for some reason. THIS shouldn't happen, but better SAFE and SAVED than sorry and SOL. {Note: If you don't know HOW to save the BIOS, in GPU-Z you click on the Little GREEN Arrow to the far Right of the BIOS version number} Step #5 - Shut Down Windows and turn off your Computer. Step #6 - FLIP the little Dual BIOS switch near the back plate / SLI Bridge area to position #2. Step #7 - Turn on Computer and reboot up. Step #8 - Re-open TriXX and/or GPU-Z and check your Shaders ... if it's 1536, CONGRATS your card UNLOCKED and you have a HD-6970 now no BIOS FLASH required it's ON the card from Sapphire ... if it's still 1408, Bummer dude no Factory Un-Lock , you could still then try FLASHING it to Unlock it, but YES this can be slightly risky and CAN void your warranty if you BRICK the card by Flashing it, most likely you have a card that Will NOT unlock, remember it's NOT 100% Guaranteed.
