Comprehension much? The PROBLEM was solved -- the computer is fixed. I want to know why a bad processor worked in one system, but not in the other.

This system worked rock solid for more than 2 years. I even tried the most current BIOS (I was 2 behind) and it was still broken. /shrug

I have solved this already, but I wanted to know if any of you gurus know the "why?". I have a 5900X and Asus Crosshair VIII Hero WiFi motherboard (rest of specs in sig). I haven't been living at home much for the last few months, but every time I came home, my PC was locked up solid (no blue...

My son just got an upgrade, so it's time to sell. Works great and clean. With original box. FOR SALE: ASUS STRIX GTX1080-8G-GAMING $450 Shipped anywhere in CONUS via USPS. Payment via PayPal preferred but open to other methods.

It's a 45min haul for me, but, yeah, Columbia is a bit further.

I was able to get one. Got to mine in St Louis 2 hours after opening and they still had 7 left (out of 12). OP, thanks for posting this. I likely would have never looked until I saw this.

Thanks. Now it's time to start plotting my purchases.

I've been thinking of upgrading to a Ryzen 9 system. I currently run 2 video cards (RTX 3080 & GTX 1080) in my X99 + i7-6900K setup. I have 3 monitors, and an HTC Vive, and a 4K TV. The new 3080 is connected to the ultrawide central monitor and the Vive. The 1080 connects to the 2 outside...

It's now been a little over 3 weeks and my system is again dead. Pretty much the same. Tried a different power supply -- no luck. I had a brand new Seasonic Prime that wasn't even in use on the old system, so I can't say a faulty P/S caused both dead systems. I have a different Asus X99 D2...

They ask the question when you set up the RMA. Overclocking using the motherboard's easy overclock feature isn't overclocking in my opinion. Tweaking it to get every last ounce of speed is a different story. There's really no way Intel could tell if you were overclocking anyway.

Asus replaced my MB and I got the same indications. Contacted Intel last night and they overnighted a new i7-6900K. I'm typing this on my now whole again system.
