Rampage VI Extreme (LGA2066, Intel X299) - info, experience, BIOSes etc.

I arranged that for the product pages. We've been seeding people with early run boards for some time. Heck, we had es boards for the helium event with Intel back at computex. Just imagine that, we had boards on display at computex and sampled a few. We even wrote an article showing results from the event, and oddly enough it mentioned the board was indeed a rampage vi apex. What a revelation.

Well just imagine that ... I sense some sarcasm

You are a sharp one, bro!

thanks guys for great word and when I said I don't know about OC, I know how to OC, my 7820x run at 4.7Mhz for day to day use and can go higher than 4.9
I tried over 5.0 but the temp of the cpu go exponentially to high , just run it a 5.0 for less than 3 minutes (I'm waiting for delid my CPU and Heatkiller VRM waterblock from Watercool.de
I said that because I cant recommend, answer question or do a guide for the Apex, some have WAY better expertise and knowledge than me to do that, ex: Raja

Sorry didn't mean to offend I just saw the following post over on overclock.net

"because I'm a noob and don't see any guide to overclock a X299, I use your exact setting on my 7820x and its very stable
now I will try to push it a bit higher and delid it

for now temp after 30 minutes of realbench
80c

around 65c in any game

mine is also is not delided,
Asus Rampage VI Apex
32 Gb Apacer 3200mhz
GTX1080Ti FE

im too noob in OC to explain or to know if its good or not

Did anyone else buy the Delid Die Mate X by Der8uaer?

I've got everything else ready to delid the 7900x, just waiting on this device to arrive.

[Raja@ASUS]

He bought one with him when he came to hq. Was an early sample that needed some revisions, but should be good now.

Just an FYI, I just finished a chat with an Asus rep through Newegg. I asked about retail availability for the Rampage VI Extreme for any retailer and this was the verbatim reply, "I am sorry. Unfortunately the board has not been fully released yet and we currently do not have any information on when it will be available". This was 5 minutes ago. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but this was directly from an Asus chat rep. Doesn't look like retail availability will be anytime soon.

Too bad Asus will not bundle a delid kit with their Extreme board. Because...why not?

My 7900X seems to be so bad that it's not even worth delidding and could use a tuning plan. Around 1.24V for P95 26.6 era stability when all cores at 4.5 GHz.

I think that is their standard reply. I was told the same earlier this week when I called them about an order I placed. It doesn't mean much other than they don't know (at least at the level of the front line person).

Another day closer I suppose. It seems like many things are released on Friday's was hoping for today.

not offended mate, I'm a noob in term of OC, I know some base no more , in fact you was right,
most of people know more than me :P

I used these settings, they gave a base for starting, like didn't know witch seeting for AVX , now I know loll
that's why I'm a noob OC'er hahaha
if my system was in good hand , for sure he will able to pull a lot more than me

but I learn a bit more every time
