    ASUS X99 Motherboard Series - Official Support Thread

    Hello Hope someone can shed some light on a strange issue I have. I have had my 5820K since January 2015, and occasionally overclock it via my X99-D for running flight sims to 4.5GHz, auto voltage of 1.264V. Its passed every stability test I could get my hands on and has been absolutely rock...

    Core i7-5960X 5930K 5820K Overclocking & Performance @ [H]

    Just to keep the results coming in, my first 5820 turned out to be either damaged or just a total dog. Did 4ghz for a month barely then started degrading. Got a new one on intel tuning plan and it went straight up to 4.5, with my deluxe auto voltaging at 1.26. May experiment with reducing the...

    Your three EXT_FAN headers allow separate control of your three fans, or alternatively plug all three into FAN_IN with a splitter to have them act as one unit. Seems to be unintuitively named, but I may have misunderstood how to use it. I do like the temperature probe headers, nice touch...

    Hmm OK thats interesting. I will see if there is an update. I experimented last night with adding my powered hub back in and this does, for now, seem to have resolved the issue without bringing back the hub-related issues I had before.

    ASUS X99 Motherboard Series - Official Support Thread

    OK thanks Raja, thats useful info. My throttle has been happily plugged into my gaming laptop for about 6 months so I am presuming there's no major issue with current draw, and TM make pretty good quality products, so I am hoping its more the recognition issue. Is this something that can be...

    ASUS X99 Motherboard Series - Official Support Thread

    Hmm interesting, I will play around with different things plugged in. Would this current overdraw be cumulative, or just due to a single item? E.g. could 6 items that add up to USB 3.0's standard 5A cause boot hang, or can it only be caused by a single device exceeding 5A? I am struggling to...

    Hey thanks dude :) That seems to have now enabled the CPU MHz to throttle down, but the voltage stays the same * headscratch * :D

    Hi Raja Any thoughts on why having more than 5 USB items plugged in is causing a failed boot? I thought I had solved it by changing to Full USB Initialisation but the issue has returned.

    EDIT2: Ehh no back to hanging again. Looks like it really doesn't like my throttle (Thrustmaster Warthog) EDIT1: It looks as though I have found a solution. I have gone and enabled "Full Initialisation" for USB at startup in the BOOT menu. This seems to have both solved boot hang problem and...
