Thanks for the image posting help!

Hi All, below is my current system, finally finished for now (going to upgrade the CPU and video cards eventually). This is only used for 3D motion design and graphics (Cinema 4D, Nuke, After Effects, Houdini). Let me know what you think. Sorry the pics are so crappy! - Intel Core i7-6850K...

Thanks everyone. Guess I was worried for nothing.

Hi all. So i checked the Vcore and it's reading 1.103v. CPU input voltage is reading 1.776v. I've let the system run for about 20min and the temp has reached a pretty stable 33c. From what i can tell, this isn't too bad?

The CPU temp never went above 31c. ASRock finally returned my email today. This is what they said: Thank you for contacting ASRock support. The voltage 1.7v is CPU input voltage. This technology is started from Haswell CPU called (FIVR). The actual voltage should be checked on Vcore. I'm...

Thanks all. Coming from an MSI board, this is a bummer. Clicking on the XMP profile stopped the bios freeze, and all the ram is showing up, running at 2400. However, now the CPU voltage is back up to 1.76v. Not sure what to do about that. I already tried an adjustment in the bios and it...

Man, I hope it's not the board. What a pain. The bios is the latest version (v1.4) based on ASrock's website. Not sure about the RAM voltage settings as I haven't made any adjustments. Do you know what the correct voltage should be?

To be honest, I did try that last night with varying degrees of success: - one stick would not post. Black screen only. - Two sticks would freeze after pressing the Delete button to go into the bios - four sticks would not post. Black screen only. Or freeze before going into the bios - Eight...

Also, I haven't installed an OS or drivers yet. This is a fresh build with all the above happening in the bios only. I haven't attempted any other installs.

Thanks for the advise. Unfortunately, because the bios screen freezes, I can't get a reading for longer than 30 seconds or so. However for that first 30 seconds, the CPU temp doesn't rise above 30 degrees C.

Hi all, I recently built a new system and am having a few issues up front. Need some help. I recently put together a system with the following pertinent main components: - ASRock Fatal1ty X99 Professional Gaming i7 LGA 2011-v3 Motherboard (bios v1.4) - Intel Core i7-6850K Broadwell-E 6-Core 3.6...

Sorry, forgot to mention, my power supply is the following: - CORSAIR HXi Series HX1000i 1000W 80 PLUS PLATINUM PSU Thanks, Anthony

Hi all, I built a system last year, and I've noticed some issues and was wondering if I could get some help from the community. I'm wondering if there's some settings or optimization I can do to fix the below. I'm not much of a software guy, so most system settings haven't been touched. The...

Thanks for the input. Guess I'm just a little paranoid.

I ran the "Intel Burn Test" and received the following temps: Standard = 76c High = 79c Very High = 81c From what I've heard, the temps are doable, so unless I notice something out of the ordinary, I've decided to work with what I have. I'm not sure what else I can do to bring the temps down.
