Yeah done that. No effect.

You should restate that, "If I alraedy delidded it _I_ don't need a redelidding tool. :) I'm not sure what adhesive was used by Silicone lottery to put it back together and I THINK they used liquid...

So I'll post this here as I put on the Windows community. Simply put it looks like Intel Turbo Boost is killing our SSD speeds by 33% as both our machines, the moment it popped up after the 4th/5th...

I'm not sure if they are being 'removed' but they might be not being produced as much if at all and any stock left might be being held back. Same thing happened with the R5E when the R5E10 came out...

I would buy one of these copper ones tomorrow if I had someone close by who could attach it for me. Sadly I don't have the delidding kit or the component to reseal it... by that time it costs too...

Thanks for the answer. Still have no idea how Justin is getting his full speed of his 905P again. I'm happy for him but frustrated I can't achieve the same. :(

Hey all,

I'm a bit confused. I looked at the Rampage 6 Extreme and it has both and ME and MEI driver, separate versions.

Yet on the Rampage 6 Omega, they only have the MEI driver no ME drive...

I got it to work twice. The first "break" was after I installed Asus aura. The second time I didn't install that but just did a microsoft update. Both times the only things I had installed were the...

The only really noticeable increase you will see is seq read/write. Pretty much every thing else will suffer due to latency and the fact that VROC is actually slower than regular windows RAID. Boot...

Welp Justin you were right ... and for a brief moment, it was glorious! Back to the way it was. As you said it happened after the install of IRST, MEI, Chipset, and MB drivers.

Then...

Very interesting. I went and checked all my settings. I have did a fresh install to 1809, using the modded BIOS but the one thing I didn't do was install latest IRST. Sure enough I look at my...

I seem to remember a few people got theirs from "Walmart" of all places. I got mine through the now defunct NCIX from the USA side since Canada didn't have them in stock at the time.

Tariffs are definitely having an effect from 18 months ago. That being said our Canadian dollar is at .70 cents to the US dollar and like .57 to the GPB and .66 to the EURO. SO not only do we pay...

So that answers that. Went downstairs to the computer that has latest build 1809 on it but never had it's BIOS updated (still circa 2015) and never had the MEI patch. It runs slower than on my main...

I actually did an experiment and ran Cinebench and Crystaldisk mark both with the Spectre/Meltdown patch on and off. Maybe a 2% difference with the patches off. I may see if I went back to BIOS...

Yeah I just checked my receipt it was $700 CAD which at the time was $550 USD.

I think the R6E was $650-700

Yes but that doesn't really help with the SSD speeds. The microcode that was before the Spectre fiasco, was allowing the 900p to get up to 300-400Mb/s on 4k random read/writes at QD1. The moment...

I am seriously been considering going back into to a microcode prior to Spectre and seeing how it fares... just to see....I miss my 300-400Mb/S read / write.

That is what i figured and that is enough apparently not to make full contact with the cooling plate, especially if the cpu's IHS is even slightly convex. That is why I really like that copper IHS...

I'm a bit confused as well but I figured. if a normal CPU makes contact with a monoblock and then you delid that CPU, scrape away the old TIM and put a thinner layer of liquid metal on it and...

If this little $25-45 dollar item fixes the gap issue with the monoblock because it is raise slightly or thicker, it is worth its weight in gold. Sadly I don't have a delidder as mine was done by...

Just gotta have the system powered off but plugged in. There should be a button on the bottom right of the motherboard. Press it and the yellow light that shows which BIOS the board is currently...

You got two BIOS, put 1503 on the other one and keep everything else the same and give it a go. It could be just the 5 -8 degrees higher, might be something else. No harm at backtracking to...

I wish I could continue to nerd out like this anymore but I think this computer will be my last major project for a long time. I have well over 10k into it and there is so much more that could be...
