So according to your experience, in CH8 motherboards it's the same using upper o lower M2 slot?
It's better to have the M2 drive controlled by the CPU or by the chipset?
With CH7 it was not the...

From what you wrote I can't figure out which PCIe slots are you using.
The manual is not so clear (as often happens) about PCIe sharing:

In the M2 section:

Happy to know you found the problem!
Usually it's a good idea to install Windows with a minimum set of devices connected to the pc, either inside than outside the case.
But a keyboard is something...

Try to unplug all SSD's and HDD's except the OS one and see if it works.
If not, try to reinstall Windows with this configuration.

Split the second cable in 2 and one part is gonna fit in the connector at the left of the 8-pin one.

If 've searched well your PSU in Seasonic website, it should have two 4/8 pin CPU cables:

The second one should "split" in two, so you can plug it into the vacant...

1) For the fan issue, simply set to "Ignore" in Monitor section in the BIOS.

2) For the POST problem, did you try to reflash the BIOS using the Flashback method? Did you try to set all RAM's...

The difficult part is if you use some effect for the mobo (like breathing) that needs to be synched. With my case I can set the strip as breathing from the front panel button, but it will never light...

Ok, so you are using the right one.
Do you have any other monitoring software installed? Or did you install some new software along with the 3004 BIOS?
In my system I had the same issue and finally...

Which software do you use to monitor if the cores go to sleep?

Baio

Did you connect the case strip's header to the mobo?
If so, open AURA and config a strip with 28 leds, than sync whatever effect you prefer anid finally push the upper front case button untill the...

I can't really think of any other test to do… the strangest thing I've ever heard about this mobo…
Sorry, I we keep monitoring this thread hoping the solution will come.
Meanwhile, if I were in...

Ok, trying a different drive is quite equal to testing the same drive in another pc...
If I don't read bad, you have overcloked you CPU: can you make a test without OC?
I see you have plenty of HDD...

Sorry for the misunderstanding… you are the first user I read of to have the inverse problem.
Maybe a full list of your configuration may help, but for sure M.2_1 does not share anything with the...

I can confirm that USB15 can fully handle also an USB pendrive. I tried and works perfectly.

Baio

Ok, maybe I got the point.. Asus states that this motherboard has only 3 USB 2.0 ports onboard (and that is really a ridicolous thing). What USB15 and ROG_EXT headers share is half of USB pins, as...

Hi,
Asus made a little mess with this board* as they called the upper slot (the nearest to the CPU socket) M.2_2 and the bottom one M.2_1 (which is not so intuitive as the PCIEX slots are numbered...

Hi, thanks for your replay.
But I can't understand what you mean with "power only"...
Can you explain it like I was 4 years old? :o

Baio

Hi there,
I'm experiencing a very strange problem with my mainboard and onboard USB ports called USB1112 and USB15 in the manual.

If I connect a Corsair Commander Pro to USB1112, it works fine....

GDM stands for Gear Down Mode?
If so, I used to keep it on Disable when I set the RAM @3600 CAS 14.
Now with the D.O.C.P. profile I didn't touch it, so I assume it's on Auto.

Baio

Hi there, just want to know if someone else has problems with CH7H and BIOS 3004 when awakening the system from sleep.
If I set my ram @3600 CAS 14 (100% stable under any memory stress test), the...

No problema man! ;-)

I still don't understand the reason why Asus enumerates PCIex slots starting from the bottom to the lower… and the opposite for nVme slots!!
When I first build up my rig, I...

What is indicated in the manual ("Support") for M.2_2 slot probably means the nVme will simply work but no speed is guaranteed.

Baio

What software are you using to state that?
Try with GPU-Z.

Baio

The images you posted from the manual show Asus called M.2_1 the bottom slot and M.2_2 the upper one (the nearest to the CPU).
According to the manual, the bottom slot is the only that can allow for...
