    Z97 extreme6/ac driver installs are unresponsive/locking up pc

    The image for the OS. I think I worked it out using ASRock update. Instead downloading the drivers from the website I downloaded them using the updater I downloaded via the UEFI onto a flash drive. Hopefully I don't get the stalls with other programs being installed later and or when...

    Z97 extreme6/ac driver installs are unresponsive/locking up pc

    Yes. The first image on the first board was off the z87-a. Reimaged 2 times on the first extreme6 then on the second image waited for this board. Attempted to uninstall drivers and reinstall them but stalled/crashed on that image. Reimaged once earlier and attempted to install drivers using the...

    Z97 extreme6/ac driver installs are unresponsive/locking up pc

    Yes I had done that. Even after getting them installed I tried to uninstall something on a fresh boot and the exe stopped responding.

    Z97 extreme6/ac driver installs are unresponsive/locking up pc

    All hardware worked fine on my z87-a but I had bent pins which were causing some problems with my i7 and POST's after reboots so I upgraded to a z97 extreme6/ac. I connected everything and it post'ed/restarted fine. Within the os the system ran fine but when I attempted to install any drivers...

    PC won't pass POST after restarts

    PC won't POST after a restart from OS and or from UEFI if any chances are made. The screen goes into sleep and all fans in the system run at full power. It will however startup if shut down. When in the OS nothing seems to be running out of the ordinary either (no crashes or lag). Build is as...

    Instability with 4670k OC

    I was bit by the OC bug when I first OC'ed my thuban just over 1.1ghz with an EVO 212. If it weren't for the haswell's temps and my h80i I'd easily push for 4.8ish. Going to def delid this further down the line so I don't void it right off the bat. Will be back with results later. Thanks for the...

    Instability with 4670k OC

    I resat the heatsink and bent 2 pins in the process earlier (I nearly soiled myself haha). That dropped temps down a bit under load. Where I'd see high 80's I now see low 60's. Currently trying to see if I can get 4.4 without bumping voltage up too high. I'm on 1.225 right now w/ input voltage...

    Instability with 4670k OC

    Picked up a 4670k, Z87-A and H80i the other day to upgrade my old system. I've been trying to OC it the past few days but I am confused at this point. Here are my relevant specs CPU: 4670k Mobo: Z87-A RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 1333 (F3-10666CL7D-8GBRH) CPU Cooling: H80i...

    Overclocking RAM for higher CPU OC

    I was wondering if OCing my RAM would help increase my CPU OC much for gaming since it's stock speeds are at 2.6ghz. I have OC'ed the CPU to 3.6ghz and would like to see how much higher I can get if I OC the RAM as well. The build is below and the games I will be playing are BF4, GW2 and Total...
