    R4E and connecting the 12v CPU power question

    I'm looking at building my first intel system, been building AMD systems since the late 90s. I'm looking at the ASUS Rampage IV Extreme with an i7-3930k processor. I noticed the board has both a 4 pin 12v cpu power connector and a 8 pin 12v cpu power connector. My question is can I connect...

    I7-3930k & 2133 MHz memory

    I'm going to spend the extra $35 and get the intel OC insurance just in case, If the processor doesn't go BOOM! before the end of the 3 years, the chances it will die afterwards is very low and if it does, newer better chips will be out. I, like you, assumed that the memory manufacturers knew...

    Which stock heatsink be best...

    I'm helping my friend upgrade his system. He purchased the AMD FX-4100 AM3+ processor. The stock cooler that comes with it is aluminum block with fan on top of the fins. I have an unused copper/aluminum heatpipe stock cooler that came with my Phenom II X940BE. Which would provide the best...

    Intel Launching Ivy Bridge Desktop Processors This Week?

    When the P4 came out, the P3 actually outperformed it when clocked at the same speed. Intel wanted to beat AMD in the speed race. AMD got to 1ghz first, hopefully they will find their way back on top someday. I been using AMD since their K6 series, had an intel 486dx2 before that. Now I'm...

    I7-3930k & 2133 MHz memory

    Another question, does Memtest+ 4.20 detect and test properly the 2133 Mhz memory on the X79 mainboard with the IMC of the 3930K? I heard a 5.0 ver is coming out soon but no ETA as yet. BTW, the parts I have so far for my new build are: CM HAF932 Adv case XFX 1000w ProSeries Platinum PSU...

    I7-3930k & 2133 MHz memory

    Ok, the Mushkin guy fired back with official intel documents that show memory running at 1.65v so here is his reponse in full... The second pdf file from intel does show memory running at 1.65v on their i7-3960X processor and board. If they have changed their minds they better remove or...

    I7-3930k & 2133 MHz memory

    the memory in question is rated at 1.65v but I can use the settings for their 1833 Mhz memory which runs at 1.5v. I asked this same question on the Mushkin forum and they asked me where did I hear this from, so I qouted an intel rep who posted on AnandTech and that customer from Newegg...

    I7-3930k & 2133 MHz memory

    I'm thinking of building a new system, I already have 16 gb of Mushkin redline 2133 MHz memory (4x4gb) and I'm thinking of getting the asus Rampage IV extreme with an intel i7-3930k processor. I have seen many examples online of people running 2133 MHz memory on this setup, including a video by...
