Is there no official spec sheet out yet? Assuming max officially supported memory speed is still 2133. Curious to see if IMC degradation exists like on haswell. Can't even find any imc degradation for skylake

Disappointed with the stream, they didn't really show much. Lots of talk and some potentially cherry picked "comparisons" / gpu limited @ 4k gaming. Also near the end, reminded me of the "amd vs intel" streaming tests that tek syndicate did a while back. Just because it "can" play + cpu...

Price match in-store. Phone or live chat won't work. Say you want to order something at the kiosk and need a pricematch. You might get bounced from person to person. Bring printout of microcenter cpu to show them. Helps to also have a staples printout of the item you want so they can...

I ordered an cpu from them days before black friday, right after i saw the email promo. Never delivered. They lied saying it was in stock and more than a week later it changed to backordered. Then to more or less not expecting shipment for it ever. order status still says "in the warehouse"...

235k usd fine if the conversion is right? for 8 years of distribution? seems like a "low" fine, considering some of the news stories you hear about people sharing music. but still an unrealistic amount to be paid wonder if the video is to cover the fines or to reduce jail time (which...

might not help you but had issues once (black screen flicker with frame pausing) but ended up being the videocard for some reason. 980ti sli, swapped card positions and it went away have you tried a different cable or a different displayport?

Played through campaign, wasn't impressed. maxed quality except fxaa without motion blur, 4790k/32gb ram/980ti sli/1440p 120hz gsync, parts of it ran okay but there was lots of stuttering. Lots of areas with low quality textures, bugged shadows, or model clipping. Story was bad. AI...

I've used USPS a few times to ship expensive videocards without problems, though full of packing material with the address label taped over just in case. But I try to avoid sending it out where it will sit over the weekend. some UPS boxes that I get, end up really smashed or have holes poked...

I'd recommend not getting a seagate hard drive. I've had good luck with the 2tb toshiba rebadges http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822149397 This case is also on sale for 25 currently http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811235037 antec platinum power...

Good looking board without too much red but @ $300 wow that costs a lot, almost as much as a 6700k

Youre probably stuck with using a splitter. tldr = EVGA motherboards have bad fan control. I think they intend for you to use 4 pin physical pwm fans (for cpu fans.) I think only 1 actual fan port on the board itself will work with a 3pin fan that will change rpm reacting to cpu temp, maybe...

What is your cpu cache ratio set to? I would guess it is autodetected too high. Have you tried lowering it to say 42 or 43 @ stock volts (think it is 1.150) Cpu memory controller SOMETIMES needs a voltage adjustment for higher speed memory, you might or might not have gone through this with...

Good luck with your testing. Be aware, there can be quite a variance between running ~3 tests of the same config. Sometimes there is also a difference between running 1 benchmark, quit, launch/rerun benchmark vs running X amount after the first without quitting. Some games/benchmarks the...

Somewhat ugly color theme on all the sabertooth boards. Dislike how an expensive board doesnt use all 7 expansion slot spacing. Good luck getting them to honor the 5 year warranty if something goes wrong.

case external reminds me too much of the older macs DS380B seems to be better in every way except for size (but the nas = 8, 3.5 or 2.5)
