I am upgrading my P8z68 to the z87 deluxe quad. I have CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMZ16GX3M4A1600C9B. Will I have any problem going to this board with a 4770K? I am using them in XMP for 2 years now with no issues. Was...

So I tried many things but in the end I purchased a new set of RAM, a 16 gb kit (corsair vengeance 1.5 v), so it was all matched as per the advice given and it has been smooth sailing from there. I have the voltage bumped up, I match the SPD XMP profile and not one single hiccup. Even sleep...

Will look into all you mention and reply. Since you asked so nicely about Bios I am responding quickly with that I am on 0606, I thought I mentioned it in an earler post.

ok, so I reinstalled windows 7 ult. running just IE, office 2010, all updates, and the RAM at the SPD timing and increased voltage. the RAM is 1.5V FYI. I have recieved 4 BSOD in a 24 hour period (computer was off most of the day). this was in the latest dump file...

Cisco, what have I done to draw your ire? I like computers, I dont like golf...:) I dont have XMP enabled, I have it as manual and blck /bus set at 100. If I did not do that BLCK went to 100.33 How much more juice would you recommend for the RAM, please. I have always been appreciative of...

CPU is at a chilly 39C. All components are new, about 8 months at this point. PSU was replaced by corsair earler. I have run Memtest already no issues. How would I check the CPU or PSU with having alternative parts to try? I will look at the GP drivers now. I feel like it is a...

Ok. I am back. here is my problem. Stability. My system randomly restart, locks-up. restarts, or BSOD. Could be working fine for 8 hours or just for 2 minutes and then needs me to hard restart. again random. when its working it is rock solid 90% of the time, no issues, then sudden...

So what do you win...

ok. I figured out the problem. I made a bone head mistake in reconnecting my system. I am not even gonna say what. all works great now. Mobo is fine.

I was kidding when I asked about removing the mobo. it was meant as sarcastic and rhetorical. glad you got it... Unfortunetly I get home late from work typically so I will have to wait till I have the time. Probably on Thursday...Appreciate the advice. I will let you know what come from ACTION.

I did not ignore your advice just missed. I will try. And it is 90 degrees. The nuts on the brackets slide so I obviously got it to do something it was not intended to do. This may be a short issue. Would that resolve after I reseat the bracket? thoughts? Who think I should take...

I have a HAF X with a cut out for the back plate. So I could see . The left side is slightly obscured but not by much. I puled the power cable out of the PSU-ie. no current. The one thing I can think of is I see now that the back plate should be rotated 90 degree as there is a cut out for...

but it still boots up and runs fine???

I just replaced my cooler h70-to -H80. I also added a HDD. Now on reboot I get the follow wierd issues. 1) I dont see the UEFI screen anymore when the computer boots up. It is black and then all of a sudden windows is up and running fine. With one exceptions which is issue 2... 2) I...

I have uninstalled Intel RST as there were known issues there. SSD has the latest drivers. I was thinking it had to do with the BLCK being at 100.33. I set it to manual and forced it to be 100.00, maybe that will help. But I know other have had this issue with board and BIOS problems...

Ok, since the day I got this board it works fine and then for no reason just stops responding. freezes like a picture....mouse wont move, no keyboard response. nothing. Only thing I can do is hit the reset button. It is becoming very annoying. I am on Bios 0501. This is happening more...

If I have installed BIOS 8801 (as you instructed) will I be able to install BIOS 0501, is that not like going back in versions, would the board let me flash back? Also, is there not more help on my issues. I noticed response to everyone else but nothing to mine. I am still having the same...

Ok, so I did everything everyone suggested, updated bios, clear CMOS (removed battery), enabled I-GPU, PLL overvolt disabled, spread spectrum enabled, etc.--and I still have the same false start at begining and Lucid will still not install... Furthermore, take a look at the CPU specs below...

I thought It needed to be dGPU, I am running display from the discreet card.

ok, so which designer at ASUS decided to put the CMOS battery right under the GPU??????????? I had to pull out my graphics card just to be thorough when reseting the CMOS. Any way I did notice that the speed of the chip prior to reset was 3.43 and not 3.40, so the BCLK mus have been over 100...

Just checked and with AI overclock tuner set to auto BCLK does not appear. When temporarily switched to manual it was at 100.3. So in auto mode I dont know what its doing but it obviously went there during the autotune. So is there a problem with auto tune on the ASUS board? Also, Just...

PS would love to overclock, its my second build and first time getting involved with OC, but if the system is going to crash at 3.53, whats the point. Maybe the Bios update will help, no? I feel the the p67 and z68 platform are very delicate, given all the problems I saw first with the bios...

It worked fine for a few hours and then crashed odd error screen for a second and then shut down. It was only overclocked to: CPU 3.533Ghz 1.256V RAM 1648 MHz 1.509V PLL 1.79 V Turbo limits seemed to see the biggest lift?! considering such a small OC I went back into the BIOS and put...

Interesting! from my memory I think that is exactly what the BCLK is, 100.3. did not think it would do that...this is what ASUS autotune set it too when I OC'ed. How come the board's own autotune (fast) set the BCLK to a level that is unstable?

thanks! I will check, at some point during OC it was up a bit, not sure it it went back to 100 after I switched back to auto settings. Wont a reset of the CMOS reset that as well. I will go though all when I get home tonight. Thanks for all the input. Raja-Are there any special...

Its not really a double post, the screens never fire up. I had the double POST on the p67 and Z68 board already. I disabled the option rom in the BIOS for the Marvell and JMicron chips and that solved the double boot on the z68. There is nothing booting from those ports, no RAID, etc... this...

Thanks, I had the system mildly OC. Set everything back to auto with this problem, still having it. Good suggestion to clear CMOS, will try tonight. Whats the rationale behind power on by PCIe at boot? just asking, will try either way.

Also, a weird thing is happening at boot. The computer spins up for 5 seconds, turns completely off for 5 seconds then starts up normally. Anyone ever experience this, is it a z68 thang?

I am on Bios version 0401, confirmed.

I believe I am on version 0401 (not at home when replying-so cant check at the moment), the version that the board shipped with. I was reluctant to move to the beta as I had problems back when I had a P67....what do you suggest?

Should be in a folder called ASUS the start menu under "all programs", did you see that folder?

1) Thanks, I have installed all the drivers off the CD including the Intel chipset drivers and I am still getting this error when trying to install Lucid I also had the intel driver update utility check to confirm that I do have all the current drivers. all ok except bluetooth stuff, but I...

Can I get the northbridge temp in the z68 BIOS?

I just installed this board very nice so far. Although: 1) I tried to install Lucid and I get an error that says "no Intel HD sandy Bridge Graphic Family Device or driver was found set up will now exit". I have an I7-2600k so I am confused by this message. 2) I am also having a problem...

I never got my corsairs, new egg messed up order. got my gskil ripjaws X, held them up to cooler, seems like they will fit fine, I may have to slide the fan up a bit to get them under but the new fan bracket lets me slide the fan up quite bit, but that should not be a big deal, maybe 2-3 fins...

forgive the dumb question: can I just clear the CmOS before I even start. Do I just move the jumper back and forth before I put the SB chip in? or did you pull out the battery, or hot the Ram RTC botton? How did you do it?

Did you get it to post. I am still wating for one of my set of ram to get here, so I have not been able to try yet. when you build are you doing anything for static electricity.

make sure your in the correct DIMMs. Like I was saying on 1366 sockets it will not post if you are using 3 of 6 DIMMs in triple channel and use the wrong set. It is probably the same here. Move the RAM into the other set of DIMMs.

G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL I think I am going to try and use these. they may have a small heatsink. what do you guys think. Meatsauce let us know how it goes and post final picks. buy the way what...

are you using all four dimms? or 2, can you just use the light blue dimms?
