    Question Asus Pro WS X299 SAGE II - is it any good.

    Hi All I've decided to build a PC which represents the last hurrah of the "High End DeskTop" (HEDT) platforms. I also believe this kind of PC would still be a beast and I plan to use it for my main PC for a long time. I plan to use all new components for the build, and I of course know that...

    Is it OK to install graphics cadrs next to each other if there are fans blowing in the gaps between?

    Hi All I'm planning to build a computer with four 2-slot graphics cards. Installing them right next to each other would leave a minimal gap between them, which is of course unacceptable. The cards can't work normally like that no question about it. However I thought if I install an array of...

    ASUS X99-E WS Problem with RAM.

    UPDATE: Well, OK a way too late update... Anyway, I did RMA both mobos I had and the memory too. After that I bought a new X99-E WS plus two kits of G.Skill RipJaws 4 2133 memory, total of 8 DIMMs. That memory IS listed in the "Qualified Vendor List"! The system works fine ever since. About...

    Logitech Z906 Surround System, rear speakers too low.

    Hi all It's me again. Due to the large amount of reads this thread received I though I should amend my writings, now that I've spend some time using the Z906, because I feel like I wasn't fair to it. Firstly to summarize the whole ordeal with the optical cable was caused solely by the...

    My computer can only run virtual machines with 32-bit guest OSes.

    Hi All I found what the problem was! Hyper V was not uninstalled successfully, although windows does not indicate that. I was kind of shocked after launching hyper v successfully after it was supposed to be uninstalled. In "Turn windows features on or off" the checkbox was unchecked and since...

    My computer can only run virtual machines with 32-bit guest OSes.

    Hi All :) I have a PC, based on Core i7 5930K and ASUS X99-E WS. Some time ago I had various different virtual machine softwares installed and everything worked fine on windows 7 x64 and Kubuntu x64. However I reinstalled and now I run windows 10 x64. I didn't need virtual machines for some...

    Wake on LAN stopped working after a long time with no problems.

    Hi bill001g Unfortunately the 'reset CMOS' didn't help. I'm staring to think there's something broken in my board. I'm going to use the other method to turn on my computer... But thanks for you suggestion anyway.

    Wake on LAN stopped working after a long time with no problems.

    Hi All I tried everything I could think of, and I couldn't find anyone on the net who had my specific problem. Let me first describe my setup: The WOL target PC has WOL capable motherboard where WOL is enabled by default (no setting in the BIOS). It's running Windows 10 and Ubuntu which I...

    Logitech Z906 Surround System, rear speakers too low.

    Hi nitinvaid20 It turns out that my speakers were too far back, also I think it's a weakness in the Logitech Z906 it self, to be honest I'm not very happy it. The sound is clear but as it something is missing. To me it sounds like sound with no bass plus a really really low rumble, which is...

    Logitech Z906 Surround System, rear speakers too low.

    Hi All I need some help with my new Z906 I recently bought. Everything is connected correctly and the hardware sound test passes fine, I can hear loud white noise from every speaker (including the rear ones) and low rumble from the sub-woofer. Since during the test an LED on the console lights...
