    Setup help needed Maximus VI Extreme

    Hey all! So I upgraded from the Z77 to Z87 board and upgraded my everything with it so I am wondering... I am running 2 GTX 770 superclocked cards.. should I use the EZ Plug? Also, using the i7 4770k should I use the 24, 8 and 4 pin connectors since I have them? It can't hurt can it? :P

    In another subject... AI Suite 3.. yea or nay? It looks so awesome and a lot of the top people seem to be using it but a lot of people are denouncing it too.. Are these just haters from the previous generations of the software or does it actually suck still? Thanks and cheers!

    1.) EZ Plug is really only needed if running more than two GPU's.
    2.) The 24-pin motherboard and 8-pin CPU are required, the extra 4-pin CPU is only for extreme oc'ing.
    3.) Al Suite is personal preference, I recommend not using it for oc'ing, do that through the bios only.
