I read that was resolved with the latest FW. I had another question: I know why Asrock does not specify Thunderbolt but its confusing. I can't tell if this supports TB4. Can this board output 4K 120/hz over the iGPU? It mentions 8k at 60fps so I would assume yet? I wont have a dGPU right away...

Nice, I did read one review where he had a pretty bad issue" "I only get 8x with one card installed. 4x in the first slot if 2 cards are installed. The second slot gets 8x which is right. no nvme drives in the m2_1 slot so i know it's not a config issue" How do you test this exactly? What...

You used GSkill huh? What case is that?

I have this in my cart now. Does the lack of 7.1 bother you? Im usually on headphones or a 2.1 speaker set up. I pulled the trigger on the 7950x CPU last night. Thinking of pairing it with this MB, DDR5-6000, WD SN850X, Thermaltake - Toughpower GF3 1000W and a Lancool 216. I might hold out for...

I thought I had my mind up. 7950x was the was to go. Uses: Content Creation (Photoshop, Clip Studio, Camtasia, Davinci, OBS) Pro's of AM5 is the future option to drop a CPU in a board Con's you need that much of a board to make it future proof AM5 is not mature yet (e.g., memory speed...

I also discovered the new Planteks NV7 from CES. WHile expensive, it could be my 10 years base.

No SPIF on that one. Never saw it before though.

Saw that. I've had my eye on the 7950x for awhile. That might make me jump on it.

I am looking at getting the 7950x (Im not a gamer and dont need the x3d variant), Anyway, there are multiple boards that meet the future proof requirement, I would put the ASRock X670E Taichi at the top of the list because: 1) It has a PCI5 M.2 slot 2) It has a PCI5 slot for a future GPU 3) It...

Is there a good site out there that tracks what cases can accomodate both E-ATX (which seems to be becoming more frequent) and the 4080? I have the Lancool 216 as a possible choice but I seem to be drawn to the Lian Li 011 style. Hyte doesn't seem to do it.

I've tried both Windows 10 and Windows 7, blowing away the partitions and installing from scratch. This started with a powered USB-C hub for my Wacom Cintiq. It has HDMI to connect the Cintiq which is USB-C to the laptop which is HDMI. At first I thought I just blew out the drivers. Now I am...

I've had my Yoga working almost flawlessly since purchase. I use a Wacom Cintiq without issue and our of no where, I get a black screen on display 2. I've tried multple displays and cables. I am aware converters do not work on this model so these are straight connections. I uninstalled drivers...

I sucked it up and bought the 70% alcohol. As long as you follow it with a dry microfiber it works pretty good mixing it with 50% distilled water.

Ok, I have some 90% but not the 70% kind. I guess I could water it down more.

Did you like make it yourself or store bought? I imagine it has to be diluted. You put that on the bare panel? Not the glass but the panel inside.

I was forced to dissemble a diplay to repair. Everything was going fine until I saw a smudge on the panel itself, I guess from moisture or finger prints. I tried cleaning with a micro fiber but it didnt work. I tried breath on it a little and that really made it worse! Anyway, I'd like to...

I am not at home but will check. I did leave the new 850W Thermaltake in there just to be sure. As for what I did to fix it, I just got lucky. Maybe It was the order of things but yanking the CMOS battery again brought it back to life. I have not even tried the old PSU in there again although...

So a very weird update. After pulling everything apart I had the CMOS battery out and put it back in again. This time the power came back on. I reconnected everything and its been fine for days. Maybe the old PSU was flaky? Maybe this board has some built in protection or something? I don't...

Yeah it sucks, I have a Zalman water cooler in there and everything and it was a pain in the ass to put in. I still have not gotten Gigabyte on the phone but I am sure its a dead board. Meanwhile, this thing never showed a sign of issue so that scares me.

In addition I also tried the big red PW_SW inside the case just in case it was the case.

Yeah, most of which you mentioned I have been doing. Since it was working fine I did not suspect a video card, short etc. Especially since even with all of that the led's should be lit on the board I would think. What a pain and I can't get Gigabyte on the phone. With Xmas it will take a...

I have had my rig since August. Everything has been fine, no OC and a nice Thermaltake 750 PSU. I went to turn on my PC and I got nothing. Naturally I switched cords, reseated cables and all that when I assumed my PSU died so I bought a new Thermaltake 850 PSU. I got it all hooked up and still...

I installed a Zalman CNPS20LQ on my Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UP5 TH and the temps are too high. I installed real temp to verify what the bios was telling me. I have dual fans on it and the pump plugged into sys fan 2. Cpu fan is plugged in as well. The hoses feel hot near the cpu but not near the...

You were right, once its installed it clears fine. Instructions are horrible. Thanks.

I recently got my GA-Z77X-UP5 TH all excited and started to build. It was suggested I get the Zalman CNPS20LQ. The board has capacitors right next to the CPU, I don't know if I am doing something wrong but it doesn't look like it will fit although it says it is made for a socket 1155. I have...

I will do that once I receive all the parts.

I actually wound up with 32gb of G.SKILL Ripjaws X 1 x GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UP5 TH LGA 1 x ZALMAN CNPS20LQ Ultimate Liquid CPU Cooler 1 x SAMSUNG 830 Series MZ-7PC256D/AM 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) Desktop Upgrade Kit 1 x Intel i7 3770k 1 x Western Digital Caviar...

Went with Gskill and an water cooler to be done with it.

Hey everyone, I have my heart set on the Z77X-UP5 TH. I want to pair this up with 32GB of 1600 DDR3. I am concerned about the right ram and heatsink. I know some have had issues booting with 32gb and clearance depending on the ram. I am using this page from Newegg for choices Newegg.com -...

Great, I imagine dedicated is less taxing overall anyway. Why dedicate any resourced to video when I have the card anyway right? Thanks.

Great info. I would be pairing this up with a GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UP5 /32gb DDR3 1600 I do not game on the PC. I have an older EVGA GeForce 8800GS 384MB 192-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 card I was going to use in that rig. Would it be better to use the CPU video or would the card be better...

What about the integrated graphics? How does that work?

Ok, I get it now. I have not had to build a PC in some time so I am at it again. When you say the board needs to support the unlocking what do they call that feature? The standard 3770 is locked @ 400mhz, nice.

I am not sure I understand the difference. I see a lot more people taking the K variant but it looks like it is missing some features so I dont get it. Also, they CPUs have integrated graphics? As in you connect it and do not need a video card?

Curious to see if anyone is using 32GB 1600 DDR3 with this board. If so what brand DDR3 and cpu heatsink. Those Dim slots look really close to the cpu. Worried about clearance.

Not sure what you mean by the 4 or 8 pin rails. Are you asking If my PSU has a 4 or 8 pin CPU connector?

Thanks for the validation guys. I did boot with just the basics. I even took the board out and attached the heatsink so I would see those pins punch through for the stock heatsink (whoever designed those 775 heatkinks should be shot) Anyway, I called Gigabyte to make sure there wasnt some...

I did not OC it, I cant even get it to stay up.

*&%! I just put my E8400 in this new board and its acting fine. What do you guys think, are the power needs for the Q9650 that much different to suspect the PSU? I have only have one hard drive and one video card attached. Thats pretty much it. Im still thinking its a bad CPU.

I had an Abit IX38 board. Specs are below: * OCZ part number:-OCZ2RPR10664GK * Module size and kit size:-4GB 2x2GB kit * CPU model and rated speed:-Intel Core 2 quad Q9650 * Video card:-EVGA Nvidia 8800GS * Power supply:-PSU corsair TX-750W 750wa * Operating System:-XP * CPU and System...
