Are you running 2 or 4 sticks? And, your buddy with the same motherboard? Here is why I ask...

I have Corsair DDR4-4000 (4*8GB) and since the "upgrade" to BIOS 1602 my system is totally unstable...

There is a fair bit of learning and a lot of trial and error to find out what your silicon likes the best based on its bin quality. Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple.

Here is a good...

After flashing the latest BIOS my Maximus X Hero (WI-FI AC) is no longer usuable with four sticks of the same DDR4-4000 that worked flawlessly before. It still works flawlessly with only two of those...

Very nice. Great job. Looks really good.

Looks great.

So, there is no way to submit scores to ASUS or HWBOT? I have tried both versions. ASUS site seems closed and the HWBOT version closes as soon as I enter my user name and password. Uploading the save...

Thank you.

That would be a cool wall-mount mod.

Weird. Maybe there is something different with an AMD system than Intel.

BIOS Flashback refuses to read from FAT32 for me. The Flashback button flashes three times and then turns steady blue and...

Thanks for all of the input guys. See responses below.

I've already tried using Flashback and it works fine EXCEPT that doing that does not downgrade the ME version. This is why I suspect the ME...

Anyone that doesn't have a 9900K yet should think twice about flashing this new BIOS. It has new micro-code and an updated Intel ME that is messing things up for my 8700K. I've already RMA'd the...

I have a similar glitch with the fans, although possibly less annoying that what you describe. What mine will sometimes do is speed up and slow down in a cyclical pattern, but never full blast or...

Nice. You did a great job on that. Mine is not nearly as fancy as your digital playground. I think you have good reason to be proud of it. Having a nice environment to work or play makes life more...

Nice rig :)

In case it helps anyone that is trying to use BIOS Flashback and find it is not working, I struggled with this as well. The documentation is not very clear. It failed every time I tried it.

What I...

Hi again. Sorry to hear of the struggle. The documentation is not very clear and I struggled with it previously as well. You have to use a 4GB USB 2.0 stick formatted in FAT (aka FAT16). FAT32 and...

Have you tried doing BIOS flashback from USB?

Thanks. It's a lot of fun benching it. With the silicon lottery taking no prisoners, a certain element is luck of the draw. This is my third 8700K. The first one had issues and was a piece of junk,...

Well, I guess the above post will be my feedback. It seems the survey is now closed.

Thanks, bro. I appreciate the compliment. Since you already mentioned it in the survey they should know that is an important must-have for this tool to be a success for overclockers. They also need...

Heck, I'm using 8700K on Z170 with my Clevo P870DM-G. Works fine. No drawbacks other than I had to make it work through firmware and hardware mods. Would have made a lot more sense for Intel to just...

Has anyone figured out how to get the voltage control tool to work correctly? It looks like I can only go up to 1.100V (versus 1.200V) and I do not see a way to lock it there like I can with...

I'll grab this for testing and provide some feedback.

Some nice looking rigs in this thread. Good stuff. Here's mine.

Hey. New here. Long time notebook overclocker. Finally fed up with crippled filth and moved to desktop in November. Some of you may know me from HWBOT, Notebook Review Forums or Overclock.net by the...

Thanks. Sorry about all of the mess. I cleaned it up. Not sure what happened.
