I did manage to install it though I had to extract the cab using winrar, the installer needed .inf file. Anyway, i got it up to date, still doesn't work.

Greetings. I have a problem with my sound. I own a MSI Z270 SLI PLUS(https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/Z270-SLI-PLUS.html#down-driver) and after I install the driver from the website there is nothing in Device Manager. I do have nvidia drivers installed and I can see the nvidia audio...

It's sitting at 3.8 in idle or load? Usually there is a lower range, 8 for example for me, that's the lowest the CPU clock will go in idle. I just finished OC 7600k on an MSI and all I did was change the multiplier and the voltage. I own a Z97 Expert with a G3258 and the same solution for...

Hey guys. I got a 7600k and Z270 yesterday and since this morning I'm overclocking. I found a stable one at 5.1GHz @1.35V and LLC4@1.36V AVX -4 The temps are very good at 5.1GHz in nonAVX tests. In small FFT(constant) or IBT(spikes) one core goes over 90*. If I test a more forgiving AVX ( AIDA...

It's not from a retail seller. It's from a guy. He says it's sealed, box and with a 3year warranty at a national seller. I can inspect it on arrival anyway, so if I see used marks I can decline the purchase. It was more expensive, but the ad is up for 3 weeks now, I guess he wants to sell it...

Greetings. I am building a new system for myself, the CPU is the only one left. I know a lot of people don't recommend 7350k because price and have to have Z mobo, but I already have Z mobo so that point is moot. I was aiming for 7600k and keep it for years to come, but I did read Coffee MIGHT...

Thanks, but from all of those above? Anyone using them or can recommend one?

R9 280x, but would like to change it soon, maybe a GTX 1060/980ti(might be a stretch for ti)

550W Gold Seasonic OEM and Arctic Liquid Freezer 240. I should be alright, unless the CPU sucks major ass....

Thanks for the reply. Well all the MSI boards(except SLI I think) in their tests had a 7700k OC-d at 5 GHz. I think the M3 had a comment from a tester saying his 7600k reached 5.2 GHz with ease. Granted silicon lottery, but still, 8+2 power phases should be enough, no? Thing is, most of the...

Greetings. As the title says, I'm going to upgrade my Haswell CPU to a 7600k. My "dream" is to reach 5GHz and I don't want SLI. I started with Z170 and coming from Asus experience, I found Asus Z170 Pro Gaming at a decent price. But I searched for Z270, the only Asus in my budget is the TUF...
