    P9X79 Pro: OC Cold Boot on - off - on Bug when ErP-Ready in UEFI is set to Enabled

    Hello Raja, I have a Seasonic 1000W Platinum and seem to get this double post behaviour (when going above 4.6ghz) regardless of if ERP Ready is enabled in the BIOS or not. Is this down to my particular power supply not supplying enough standby power? and if so would it possible to at least get a...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    Hey all, I've made some progress in my Realtek dialogue box popup problems, unfortunately it looks to me like RMA is needed. :( I've noticed that there is a very faint electrical noise that is made through my headphones during activity... like when you scroll a webpage, highlight text or simply...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    All that I have ever had plugged in is headphones in the rear green slot. In addition this has occured with both a 2600k & Pentium G840, different RAM, different PSU, Intel and ATI GPU and I tried with some ipod headphones just to rule out my Sennheiser headphones. I guess I've scared Raja off...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    Yeah I see what you mean but I'm using HD connector and HD is set by default in the BIOS, I've not touched anything AC'97 in years. :p :( Well I've tried two different headphones so it's starting to sound like motherboard but I was hoping it might be a bios bug or something like that as a few...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    Yes mate, I am not a noob if that's what you're thinking. :p I am not actually using the front header I just heard someone say somewhere that it might be causing 'feedback interference' or something but I have tried two cases/headers which have no such problems with other boards and the issue...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    I just have headphones plugged into the green socket on the back of the motherboard, it doesn't matter if I choose 'front speakers' or 'headphones' in the Realtek menu I keep on getting this random pop up which basically asks me what I just plugged in to the socket. I have tried different...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    FAO Raja. Hello, I have seen you around on a few forums and it is good to see Asus are taking an active role within the communities. I have a P8Z68-V Pro and ever since purchase I have been getting an extremely irritating Realtek popup related to jack sensing, I am not the only person to have...

    Powercolor PCS++ v Sapphire Vapor-X

    From what I've been told the newer Vapor-X's don't either but it's not really important to me anyway. My main priority is noise but obviously if the PCS++ (925mhz core) is just as quiet as the Sapphire it would be preferable due to the higher stock clockspeed, I don't intend to overclock just...

    Powercolor PCS++ v Sapphire Vapor-X

    So the Vapor-X has the better heatsink?

    Powercolor PCS++ v Sapphire Vapor-X

    Which is the best between these two? I'm referring to 5870 models. I'm in the market for a silent GPU, the Powercolor has faster clockspeeds so I'm edging towards that... is there any other differences I should know about?

    OC and 6 stix of ram

    In my experience it is more difficult yes probably because the memory controller has twice as much work to do, you might need to relax the timings a little if stability is a problem.

    x58 920 - dimm 3 won't post

    Are you trying to run the memory at its rated speed of 1600Mhz? try underclocking it if so, the i7 920's on-die memory controller only officially supports 1066Mhz memory anything higher than that is considered to be overclocking and may result in problems.

    i7-920 Unable to oc over 3850MHz

    If you ask me you're running way too high a BCLK, why using only the 18x multiplier? For 4Ghz stable 191 x 21 is by far the most stable setting providing your motherboard supports using the turbo multiplier, it will also require way lower voltages. Also you're really pushing the limit of the...

    So where's the PhsyX drivers?

    With these latest drivers do you still need a second monitor plugged in for Vista when using a separate GeForce card for Physx?

    BFG GTX280 OC2 Review - Pics, Temps, Benches

    It's a button in GPU-Z that just reads your bios and makes an image on your hard-drive, it's about as dangerous as switching your computer on and having it initiate/read the graphic card bios during post.
