I let the latest version of Memtest86 (7.3) running for 14 hours and I had 0 errors. It is weird. How is it possible to have your CPU in its registered speed (3300) and have errors, while the overclocked run (4000) is without an error whatsoever.

Hi. I built a new system around a Gigabyte X99 Ultra Gaming with a 5820K CPU and 64GB 2400 C14 Memory Kit that is in the QVL (supported/tested list) of the motherboard. I tested the system with Memtest86 v7.2 Free and got these (weird) results: (read carefully to understand) CPU clock / Memory...

What does this note means from Gigabyte's Manual ? When installing the memory, make sure to begin with the first socket of each channel, such as DDR4_1_1A, DDR4_3_1B, DDR4_5_1C, and DDR4_7_1D. I can't understand it. I'm seeing the configuration table for 1,2,4,6,8 modules (I'm planning to...

So, as I see it my options for my 5820K and 8X8GB Corsair RAM are: - No Asrock because aren't guaranteed to work with 8 RAM modules according to their site (it is considered ..overclocking to have 8 modules of RAM if you can believe it). - Possibly No Asus, since I bought (and return) an Asus...

Thank you Colif. For a moment I was worried.

I was checking for a motherboard for my 5820K and in the compatibility list I saw 2 variants of the cpu. 1. Core i7-5820K(3.3G,140W,L3:15M,6C,HT) 2. Core i7-5820K (3.3GHz, L3:15M, 6C, HT, 140W, rev.R2) Never heard of that before. Is it a thing? I might have the first one that isn't compatible...

Hi to all. I built a system around an Asus X99-A II last weekend and initially I thought that everything was fine, but during stress tests I had "Hardware failure" messages. After I updated the firmware from 1201 to 1401, the motherboard failed to see all my 8 modules of RAM and only saw 6. I...
