    Arrow Lake Refresh

    The goal of this is sales for people on older DDR4 platforms that don't want to lay out $250 for 16GB of DDR5.

    Finally had a good Asus RMA experience

    Yeah that was my first reaction, but then I realized this one is really pretty too. Asus does make some good looking boards. I'll be honest though, I really miss the wonky colors of the Sandy Bridge/AM3+ era like the Gigabyte UD series.

    Finally had a good Asus RMA experience

    This board is more expensive, it has more I/O by a lot and better VRM. It’s around $50 more. I’m guessing they really didn’t have any white ones otherwise why would they throw money away. I do get your point but I feel like trying to fight them over it when their policy is clearly written is...

    Finally had a good Asus RMA experience

    It says suitable replacement of similar value on the forms, I think most companies do this kind of thing. Anyways, I got a good working board.

    I did, it’s required. Front and back plus the socket.

    Finally had a good Asus RMA experience

    I know its been talked about a lot over the years and I've had my bad run-ins with them as well. I had to RMA my Z890-A Strix, it just stopped POST-ing one day, no LED cycling just nothing. Swapped the CPU, RAM, etc. It would turn on the RGB and fans but no activity on the socket. I crossed my...

    Do the ASUS ROG Strix QD-OLED coatings scratch easily?

    I got dragged hard for questioning the reddit nerds that say you can only clean these things with magical unicorn farts and fairy feathers. I just spray some sprayway brand no-ammonia glass cleaner on mine and wipe it with a damn microfiber. Looks like new 2 years later.

    My first AMD Graphics Card since the R9 290X - My Gigabyte RX 9070 XT Gaming OC experience

    Does your card have any coil whine? Mine has just a little bit of buzz, not too bad. How are temps looking?

    My first AMD Graphics Card since the R9 290X - My Gigabyte RX 9070 XT Gaming OC experience

    I love my colorful lights but I don't have to have them, it really bothers me when I see people spending $500 on the Corsair or Lian Li ecosystem for a bunch of fans and controllers and then buying a 5060 8GB.

    My first AMD Graphics Card since the R9 290X - My Gigabyte RX 9070 XT Gaming OC experience

    It doesn't hide them tho, it just makes the Gigabyte logo light up. Gigabyte cards can only be controlled by GCC. I usually install it once, set the colors, then uninstall it since they stay in memory forever.

    My first AMD Graphics Card since the R9 290X - My Gigabyte RX 9070 XT Gaming OC experience

    I'm not really understanding the point of the little sliding bit over the RGB, but the card seems pretty good and well built. I know these had temperature problems early on, I hope these ones have been rectified.

    [DEAD] $649 GIGABYTE Radeon RX 9070 XT Gaming OC (Black or white) @Amazon

    I got mine last night, has about the same coil whine as my ASRock model. This one is a 3x8 instead of 2x8 and seems a bit faster.
