    Intermittent Shutdown/Sleep Issues - Rampage IV Extreme

    Seems like the consensus on the ROG forums is that it is a memory issue. When I built this rig last weekend, I bought two 2x4GB Dominator GT 2000 kits. I'm hearing that that could be problematic as each kit is optimized for dual channel operation and not quad channel. I've got a quad 4x4B...

    Intermittent Shutdown/Sleep Issues - Rampage IV Extreme

    Hi all, I was wondering if you could offer me any insight. I just recently obtained a R4E board. I'm running a 3960X @ 4.7 on it, with some slight adjustments to VCore, VCCSA, clockgen filter, etc. All the standard tweaks that most people seem to be making on this board. The system is rock...

    Official GTX 680 Owner's Thread

    I've been playing around with EVGA Precision this afternoon on my SLI setup and it looks like I am capping out at +120 base clock offset and +520 memory clock offset for my overclock. But here's the thing. I can run the EVGA OC scanner all day long, 3dmark, and the heaven benchmark and it's...

    Intel RSTe (Enterprise) and SSD Toolbox

    I'm reading (and also experiencing) that the Intel RSTe drivers don't play well with Intel SSD Toolbox. Basically, SSD Toolbox can't identify that my SSD is an Intel (so it doesn't allow me to run the optimizer, etc) because it thinks SMART is disabled, which it isn't, but apparently is a...

    GTX 580 Owners Thread

    This is my first foray into SLI on the desktop. Picked up two EVGA GTX 580 SC's the other day. Very happy with the purchase thus far. Currently running at the stock SC overclock but plan on getting some more out of the OC when I find some time to do it.

    ASUS Rampage III Extreme @ Newegg

    Definitely a pretty sweet board. I'm not a highly advanced OC'er but I was able to relatively easily take the 980X to 4.35 stable on air cooling.

    ASUS Rampage III Extreme @ Newegg

    Well, I finally got around to putting this thing together. I'm working on my OC now. This is definitely the loudest PC I have ever built... Went with the Corsair 800D case and running with 7 fans. A few of them are Scythe Ultra Kaze and those seem to be insanely loud compared to the others...
