Going to dnld that app for tuning the Asus bios and overclocking via bluetooth using an Android or iPhone, it sounds cool, at least worth a try.



It's called ROG iDirect from the app store.

We may not have much right now gentlemen, but at least we have hope and a cool video:


“yet again we’re the only ones.”

Talk to you again on Wednesday, maybe we can work out a better format, something that can complement the simple tech support with personal experience and therefore a broader knowledge base.


Thanks for stopping by Frost you're amazing man!

Was looking over at the ROG Exchange overclocking profiles, none for the Formula or the Extreme yet, thinking of creating a few this week, its about time I stopped relying on CPU level up and learned the ins and outs of overclocking, how hard can it be? Going to create a profile for an ultra silent rig with low air flow and around 4.2Ghz o/c, so temps will remain low. The CPU levels ups are nice and easy but the Vcore volts are high. Gonna try to tweak the volts down as low as possible and maintain the 4.2.

Be great if other club members can also create some ROG EXchange profiles for the Formula and Extreme and share them here and on the ROG Exchange Database for other ROGers to try out. We should make sure they are Prime 95 stable before posting them and letting everyone know your cooling and CPU/mobo thermals would also be beneficial.

That sounds awesome Bruce! Getting those Vcore volts down would be very beneficial. Now concerning proc temps, 1mm can be a world of difference of said temps. And as my research has previously indicated, having your proc's lid/heat sink assembled in Malay makes a difference too. But we always want more... so might I gingerly suggest 2 alternatives if one can't get the desired o/c with lower volts. Lapping and/or delidding the proc 🙂

I'm sure once you post a "seed" o/c profile many others will follow/post theirs for the Formula and Extreme boards, although I was thinking that maybe Asus hasn't yet allowed the postings because... there's none there. So your-hopefully-success with the profile upload is greatly anticipated. And should you be able to upload, then why in the heck haven't the professionals posted any of theirs seeing that we just made another world record, Mmm...

I'm not sure if the first paragraph is directly related/appropriate to our boards/this forum and if not, I apologize in advance. All the best of luck MeanBruce and any others that take on this endeavor! May Asus live long and prosper!

from what i remember, i dont think that profile thingy is up and rurning yet.
i think they had some problems whit it.

look at the sticky in this tread : http://rog.asus.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?152-ROG-Exchange

I believe your right kkn, from what I heard they had some problem with the BIOS/UEFI code and we have to wait until that is sorted out 😞
