Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
So yeah, my X99E-ITX arrived yesterday. I'd originally specced and bought myself a nice 5675C/Maximus VII Impact ITX system but had an 11th hour change of heart and decided to go X99.
Only problem is that they forgot to ship my DDR4 with it so i'm waiting until later today to get that fitted...
Spent all day trying to get the board to recognise my SM951 NVMe drive in the M2 slot.
The only even slight hint I can see is that with it plugged in i'm getting x8 lanes on the PCIe slot, and without it's giving the full x16.
Have tried installers for Ubuntu, Windows 7 and 10 but none can...
It's funny - I have a DH77DF and I get this. I also had It with my DH57JG before that.
I chalked it up to some stupid bug that Intel never got around to purging from it's boards/BIOS software. When I had a P8Z77-I for a few weeks the problem went away.
Sorry I can't give better news.
I bought an M1 but I would probably pass on this as I think the M1 is a better looking case (and I don't have room for two in my life).
But cool work Necere, and good luck with this.
What's the point of adding NINE millimetres of extra space for a graphics card? That's not even quite half an inch and is going to make no difference whatsoever.
It seems to me like an SG05 with ATX PSU support and no ODD slot. Is there really demand for such a thing?
Quick question as I can't test it here.
Is there any reason why two separate 120mm all-in-one rads wouldn't fit to the radiator bracket? I'd like to install two - one for CPU and one for GPU but I wondered if there's some tolerance which means they wouldn't fit?
So the size of this new PSU is going to make it useless for M1 builds with a long graphics card and also useless for the SG05/06?
I have to admit, if it's 30mm deeper I don't see the point - there are already 500W ATX PSUs with similar dimensions?
[Edit] SS's own Strider ST60F is 150w x...
I believe most of the 7 series boards will take it, i'm just wondering if there's a "go-to" Z77 board for Ivy Bridge, one that stands out above the pack for reliability, quality, and features.
