    ASUS Z87 Motherboards Not Supported For Server OS???

    I purchased an ASUS Z87-PLUS for use as a value server. Unfortunately, when installing Windows Server 2012 Essentials, the Intel I217 network controller is not supported. And no driver is available, either from ASUS or from Intel. Looking into the issue, I see that ASUS installs the Intel...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    Virtu runs fine on my machine... P8P68-V PRO BIOS 3402

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    It sounds like ASUS's BIOS quality is headed down-hill, and fast. Does anyone recall what version they removed the Turbo overvoltage adjustment? I'm seriously thinking of trying to flash back to that version or frisbeeing this motherboard...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    Just curious - why'd you upgrade from P68 to P77 and do you think it's worth it? Other than BIOS issues that tick me off (like lack of updates & the lost Turbo Offset Voltage setting) is the P77 really superior to P68 in any real-world way other than supporting Ivy?

    Can anyone definitively confirm that TRIM is working with the new 3603 BIOS? (I don't think Raja monitors this thread any more)

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    Funny you mention this, my P8Z68-V Pro bricked hard the other day. From what I can tell it apparently bluescreened at night and powered off (probably woke from S3 sleep for its backup). When I hit the power button in the morning, nothing. Fans spin up, lights come on, then nothing, no vsync...

    Achieva Shimian QH270| $400 IPS 2560x1440 Korean Monitor

    I finally ordered & received my Q270-SE. It's great, the panel is flawless, but the color is way, way too cool temperature. I tried the ToastyX ICM profiles, but they're way off. Apparently I got one of the Rev. 2D models and the color is too cool rather than having the green tint of the 2B...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    Just a quick update on the my experience using BIOS v0706. It turns out that enabling PLL Overvoltage in combination with using S3 sleep works only about 90% of the time. Last week I had one incident where the system just restarted instead of resuming. Then, this morning, the system...

    ASUS Official Z68 Chipset Motherboards - Support Thread

    Got the time to update to BIOS v0706, latest drivers, etc and I must say I'm impressed. I can confirm that S3 sleep now works with CPU PLL Overvoltage enabled. I had given up on this ever being fixed. I'm now easily able to hit 47x103, just by hitting the Extreme Overclock button in AI Suite...

    Nice, thanks - that makes it worth the update in itself...

    Official ASUS P8P67 Series Overclocking Guide and Information

    Has anyone tested BIOS 0706 to see if S3 can resume when CPU PLL over voltage is enabled? I thought I read this was due to some sort of un-fixable flaw in the CPU microcode. It would be great if this turns out to be wrong. Anyone?

    Powercfg -lastwake wrong issue? (P8Z68 UEFI BIOS 0501)

    Hey, Is anyone else having this issue with their ASUS P8Z68 motherboard? Putting the system into S3 sleep, then waking the system by moving the mouse and running "powercfg -lastwake" reports that the Intel 82579V network controller woke the system when this is apparently wrong. The USB mouse...

    Intel Smart Response Technology - SRT @ [H]

    Ah, I misread that. Hey, since you mention it, could you post links to any SRT documentation, whitepapers, etc you're aware of? The Google isn't dredging up much...

    Intel Smart Response Technology - SRT @ [H]

    From what I've read, the answer to this question is yes, although I haven't tried this exact configuration myself. You should probably avoid SRT 'Maximized' mode to avoid excessive wear on what I assume is a MLC SSD drive. And if you value your data, I'd recommend a backup strategy on that...
