    ASUS X99 Motherboard Series - Official Support Thread

    Thanks for your suggestions. All the switches (TPU, EPU, etc.) are off/disabled by default. Btw, what's the difference between turning on the XMP switch vs enabling XMP in UEFI?

    ASUS X99 Motherboard Series - Official Support Thread

    My memory is G.Skill 2800 and it's on the QVL list. And it's not evening running at XMP (running at 2133). I wondering what else could be wrong here. One thing to note is that my mobo is on 1203 BIOS, wifi and bluetooth enabled. Besides the WHEA error, Windows 8.1 randomly hangs. Anyone...

    ASUS X99 Motherboard Series - Official Support Thread

    anyone getting the Windows 8.1 whea_uncorrectable_error? I just built my brand new PC with X99 deluxe over the weekend. I have been struggling to keep it stable. Not overclocked yet. I tried using the optimized defaults and disabled fast boot. I am using the bundled wifi antenna though.

    Unable to wake computer up from sleep mode when overclocked (GA-X38-DS4)

    unfortunately it doesn't work for me (with GA-X38-DQ6). My CPU and memory voltages are already at manual settings, since the machine is overclocked.

    Heatsink for a Q6600

    I just installed a Tuniq tower last month on my new Q6600 too. Some of the screws require more effort to go down. I just swapped the screws and it worked. Just don't screw them all the way in one shot.

    Unable to wake computer up from sleep mode when overclocked (GA-X38-DS4)

    On a somewhat related note my GA-X38-DQ6 board is having sleep/hibernate problem in Windows XP. If anyone has fixed this let me know. Blame on gigabyte BIOS....

    ICH9R and Windows xp

    I just installed windows XP on my new x38 board (with ICH9R) successfully without problems. My mobo's ICH9R is set to AHCI. No need to switch SATA controllers. I slipstreamed my copy of Windows XP to have the ICH9R drivers though. This is my only option since I don't have a floppy drive...

    Ragdoll Kung Fu - a little short?

    Check out RDKF's official site for screenies: http://www.ragdollkungfu.com/screenshots.html I have the game. To me the graphics are ok, not great. Very interesting control scheme. Still trying to get used to it.

    What do you guys think of 1.03

    I am disappointed that the patch made my BF2 more unstable. Already crashed to desktop on my 1st game after patch. :(

    Logitech G5?

    I just got it a few days ago and I like it a lot so far. Really comfortable and sensitive. Well my last mouse was an old Microsoft Intellimouse. It's like night and day.

    Razer Copperhead

    I'll be waiting for the Logitech G5 baby. Looks more ergonomic than the Razer. Also a little cheaper.
