Hello
Hope someone can shed some light on a strange issue I have.
I have had my 5820K since January 2015, and occasionally overclock it via my X99-D for running flight sims to 4.5GHz, auto voltage of 1.264V. Its passed every stability test I could get my hands on and has been absolutely rock...
Just to keep the results coming in, my first 5820 turned out to be either damaged or just a total dog. Did 4ghz for a month barely then started degrading. Got a new one on intel tuning plan and it went straight up to 4.5, with my deluxe auto voltaging at 1.26. May experiment with reducing the...
Your three EXT_FAN headers allow separate control of your three fans, or alternatively plug all three into FAN_IN with a splitter to have them act as one unit. Seems to be unintuitively named, but I may have misunderstood how to use it.
I do like the temperature probe headers, nice touch...
Hmm OK thats interesting. I will see if there is an update. I experimented last night with adding my powered hub back in and this does, for now, seem to have resolved the issue without bringing back the hub-related issues I had before.
OK thanks Raja, thats useful info. My throttle has been happily plugged into my gaming laptop for about 6 months so I am presuming there's no major issue with current draw, and TM make pretty good quality products, so I am hoping its more the recognition issue. Is this something that can be...
Hmm interesting, I will play around with different things plugged in.
Would this current overdraw be cumulative, or just due to a single item? E.g. could 6 items that add up to USB 3.0's standard 5A cause boot hang, or can it only be caused by a single device exceeding 5A?
I am struggling to...
Hi Raja
Any thoughts on why having more than 5 USB items plugged in is causing a failed boot? I thought I had solved it by changing to Full USB Initialisation but the issue has returned.
EDIT2: Ehh no back to hanging again. Looks like it really doesn't like my throttle (Thrustmaster Warthog)
EDIT1: It looks as though I have found a solution. I have gone and enabled "Full Initialisation" for USB at startup in the BOOT menu. This seems to have both solved boot hang problem and...
Hi
I am looking for some good 120mm PWM fans, preferably comparable in performance to Corsair SP120's PWM Hi-Performance (63 cfm @ 3.1 mmH2O), but which are compatible with the "Intel PWM Standard". I am reliably informed that the Corsair PWM has incompatibilities. This may be causing me...
Personally I bought through Amazon first, but be aware that buying through an Amazon seller you have (questionably) less days to return if faulty. Buy from Amazon direct or go to someone outside Amazon who offers 28 day returns (if you are in the UK this should be standard anyway). That way if...
Its a valid question for sure. Devil22 makes a good point that all of the boards seem to be struggling with teething problems, and that X99 in general may be having post launch blues. With the Deluxe, its been a MASSIVE seller, because Haswell-E is enthusiast, and enthusiasts want the best -...
Just as an update, looks like the super weird RMA process finally ended, super weirdly. Amazon have been strangely incompetent throughout the process and made some odd mistakes, and I now suddenly have a refund for the full amount on the board despite a failed claim (which amazon wrongly told me...
Thanks Raja I may well do that if things don't resolve. ASUS had suggested a chip change or RMA with my supplier, who was an amazon reseller. Amazon incorrectly instructed me I was entitled to refund at this stage. The seller refused (unsurprisingly I now understand), so in blissful ignorance I...
Hi again
As a follow up to my queries, I am experiencing problems with my RMA and it is not yet resolved. As a backup then: ASUS recommended I try changing the BIOS chip and the motherboard battery. Can someone recommend where I might buy one these (chip AND battery)? I checked...
Hi there
I RMA'd through Amazon. God I love Amazon, such good customer service.
ASUS' own suggestion was to buy a new BIOS chip and battery on the assumption my BIOS was fritzed, or RMA through supplier. A hardware review site I found implied that you would have to really push an overclock...
Hi Raja
I have now done that and unfortunately I still have the problem, including the crashing in the actual BIOS screen which I thought had gone. Looks like it is RMA time :(
Thanks for your help though
Thanks so much Raja, I will try that tonight. Can you advise why this is important and what it means please? Much appreciated.
EDIT: OK I booted her up, and the only thing I can see in the BIOS on either the first EZ screen, or under the 'main' tab is the American Megatrends number: "Version...
Hello there
Not sure whether to make a new post for this or add to this one, but here goes anyway!
I have a brand new X99 Deluxe with a 5820K in it, and I have been having all sorts of problems with it. After overclocking my 5820K, which wouldn't really stay stable above 4.0GHz (ASUS auto tune...
