    ASUS Z87 Motherboards - Overview, Guides and Official Support

    Raja, is the Z87-PLUS gonna get the USB ASMedia_U3_FW_update that was made available for others boards (PRO,EXTREME,DELUXE,etc)? Because the Z87-PLUS also has 4 ASMedia USB ports... Maybe it was forgotten?

    Is it time to drop the DVI ports on video cards?

    I know, and I also don't own a 144Hz monitor which wouldn't work with HDMI. And you have to pay royalties to use HDMI, and none for DVI.

    ASUS Z87-Pro or Gigabyte Z87X-UD4H?

    intel nic is better. yeah c2 chipset revisions fix that sleep issue. I don't use them either but I didn't wanted to buy something that was known to be flawed.

    Just trying to pass the message that 1504 does works fine in some combinations and your reported problem doesn't apply to all boards/ssds. people shouldn't be afraid of upgrading, but its always best to keep a copy of a known stable bios prior to upgrading :) Does anyone here use HWMonitor...

    ASUS Z87 Motherboards - Overview, Guides and Official Support

    I upgraded to the latest 1504 on my Z87-PLUS and my Samsung 840 EVO works just fine. If its freezing at light loads perhaps something related with idle states? Do you have the new C states enabled? is your PSU haswell certified? if not try disabling them.

    Is there any way to adjust fan speeds on the BIOS (i.e. set them to 100% if temp > 80ºC), or do I really need to install AI Suite 3 so I can access Fan Xpert?

    Yes I plug the speakers on the green back panel, and for the headphones I would like to do it like on the previous board, connect it on any other plug and in the drivers assign it to "headphones". But apparently I can't retask the back panel once speakers are already connected :( The only way...

    I do understand that in haswell cpu plays an important role, i'm just trying to figure out if I need a better board to use DDR3-2400 with a moderate OC. i.e. if the same cpu with the same oc will work with 2400 on lets say asus hero but on the z87-plus it won't.

    Hello, is the Z87-PLUS capable of running G.Skill Trident X at 2400MHz (1.65v) with a i5 4670K on a average OC (4.2GHz max)? Or should it be paired with a cheaper 1600-1866MHz 1.5V RAM?

    RAM for Haswell build - is 2400 worth it?

    Hello there, I'll be building a new rig next month, I'll use it mainly for image editing and gaming. The CPU will be buying a 4670K, mobo probably Z87X-UD3H or Asus Z87-PRO. I plan to OC it on air, so something in the 4.2-4.4GHz range I want 2x8GB ram (I need it for the image editing part)...

    Haswell a big flop?

    $30.000 in a $145.200.000 sale is peanuts. I wouldn't mind paying more 5 cents to have proper thermal material. I would even pay $10 more.

Under normal conditions, bleeding is...

    and you'll probably never will considering you will keep buying new games (and some of them you will never play as well). So lets be realistic, I don't see why expiring games would make a difference for you, in the end you don't end up playing them anyway, so the difference would be just the...
