    RAM Placement

    With my apps more RAM is a way to load more instruments. I enjoy having overhead but on Z97/Z170 boards is it better to use 2 x 8Gb DIMMs or 4 x 4Gb DIMMs.... Thanks.

    Samsung M.2 XP941 or Samsung 850 Pro?

    On my apps I saw an increase in polyphony (voice counts) which correlates to the 4k random IO increase of 40k from my former OCZ Vertex 4s that had 75-80k. Also use a PCI-e 2x M6e along with XP941, the M6e is where my OS+Apps are stored and it loads the thousands of RAM buffers I use much...

    MSI Z77 MPower

    So they're using this MoBo to promote higher OCs on the Sandy Bridge platform, and the Ivy Bridge is being neglected...? Whatever it takes to sell I guess. But perhaps the newer Ivy Bridges just aren;t worth buying is what I take from this thread. FWIW I like this board and would love to...

    ASUS P8C WS? Ivy Xeon ECC workstation mobo

    I beg to differ on the OC features. I will be buying the P8C WS and E3-1280, and 32GBs of RAM. The only reason I won't overclock is that the 3.4GHz speed and RAM speed is right where it needs to be for my applications. But I have used P4 Northwoods, E8600 Wolfdales, and i7 920/930 and OC'd the...

    Ivy Bridge Mobo with 32GBs of RAM

    I really appreciate the favor boss,. You just made up my mind, and oddly enough I used GSkill for the i7 rig. First time ever, now it looks like I'll get the 8GB DIMMs from them since they have a good record with me already. Really made my week , Thanks..........

    Ivy Bridge Mobo with 32GBs of RAM

    That's great news. Is it possible for a screenshot..? I make money using PCs for live performance 6 nights a week, and know about the OS limitations, the proper voltage and quality RAM since money isn't an issue. DRAM voltage was the factor in my current i7 rigs, but even then using 24GBs ( 23...

    Ivy Bridge Mobo with 32GBs of RAM

    Does anyone here have an Ivy Bridge rig where they are using 32GB's? Photoshop users and Pro Audio DAWs can use this, but I am having difficulty getting anyone to share some screenshots, but I have plenty of screenshots of guys who can;t get 32GBs working. I had a similar problem on the i7...

    SuperMicro X9SAE/-V - Xeon IvyBridge C216 ATX

    I bet they're trying to ensure that the 32GB loads work as advertised. Intel boards use to be my favorite, other than Supermicro, but the DZ77 is a problem with the tested RAM using 32GBs, even though it is advertised using certain 8GB DIMMs. I figured the i7 3770k is a lower binned CPU...

    SuperMicro X9SAE/-V - Xeon IvyBridge C216 ATX

    The Advantech with it's cheap upwards facing SATA connectors is cutting corners and could get in the way of mid or full length cards. IEI doesn;t have a close up, but I would ask Supermicro if they plan on releasing a mATX. Their boards NEVER have any issues, but do lack the typical bells and...

    SuperMicro X9SAE/-V - Xeon IvyBridge C216 ATX

    This is exactly what I want also. The Graphics on die are more than I will need. Does anyone have any idea about the BIOS, and if I can jump up the RAM speed..? From my experience, when using x64 and 24GBs on the MSI board, I had to undervolt the RAM so W7 would recognize all of the DIMMs...

    SuperMicro X9SAE/-V - Xeon IvyBridge C216 ATX

    They do fit into 1U Chassis. CSE-113TQ-R500UB CSE-813T-600UB CSE-815TQ-R500UB Revision K Chassis is special made for these UIOs, a slight change of an ATX is what I am seeing. 25.6" depth is too big for me. I really wish they would build an ATX version and have an OC type BIOS, even if...

    Core i7-3770K worth buying?

    I am looking to do that using 32GB's of RAM. But I don't like what I am reading about the heat when OC'ing the CPU. Since I am green w/ OC'ing but fascinated by tweaking the BIOS, etc. Can I keep the CPU temps under 60 Cent. and have the RAM screaming at those speeds...? My current rig is...
