    [SOLVED] Expected performance gain from overclocking CPU by 10%

    It actually shows up on the Asus flash screen when booting up. Of course they want it to look its best, after all, this is after applying their AI Overclock feature. All cores will run 5.0Ghz+, but I currently have it setup for 2 cores to run at 5.4Ghz and the rest around 4.8Ghz. I remember...

    New build: Cannot install Windows: WHEA uncorrectable error" or "machine_check_exception"

    I'm having the exact same issue, but I'm using a different CPU, brand new, and it's also a new build. I've been having this issue for months, and the only thing I've been able to figure out is that it's some kind of incompatibility issue with the Asus USB ports and Windows 10.

    Windows 10 or System issues due to a machine check exception error

    I don't know if you've found a solution for this or not, but I've been experiencing the exact same thing. If I cold boot my PC, it posts. If I'm in Windows 10, install any kind of update, driver, etc which asks to reboot the machine, this is when I get this error. If I turn the power off with...

    Need replacement for Asus Rampage V Extreme *ASAP*

    I'm working on a build, but my MB is bad. I have an Intel i7-5960X with a waterblock, 32GB DDR4 memory, I'm running 2 x Gigabyte 980 Ti Gaming G1 GPUs in SLI, I have waterblocks on the chipset and VRM, and all my tubing is acrylic. I know a lot of boards have come out since this one, but I need...

    i use Kaspersky 2016 total security on windows 10

    Same here. I tried for the longest time to install the most recent Insider's Update, and finally, I decided to uninstall Kapersky to see if it had anything to do with it, and once it was uninstalled, the Windows 10 update installed fine. Now I don't know if I should install it again or not. It...

    SLI watercooling with Acrylic

    Why wouldn't I have room for hardline compression fittings? I have 4 slots, or 80mm, between each GPU. Also, last night I was thinking about possibly using acrylic to connect the water on my MB since they're all pretty close together. I figured it might look more clean to connect the CPU...

    SLI watercooling with Acrylic

    I'm trying to finish upgrading my system, but instead of using an EK-FC Dual Parallel Terminal Block to hookup my SLI GPUs, I want to hook them up in parallel using acrylic tubing. I already know if I buy some pre-cut acrylic tubing for this, I'll need the 4 slot tubing. My question is regarding...

    2 8-pin Connectors for GPU, 1 PSU Cable for GTX 980 ti

    What if it's a multi rail PSU? It won't overload one of the rails?

    1x 850 Pro 500GB or 2x 850 Pro 250 GB?

    Read this article. It's quite lengthy, but I think you'll see that there is a huge speed difference between the 256GB and the 512GB drives. Also, the new Samsung 850 EVO drives use 3D TLC NAND technology, which makes it just as fast as the 850 pros. I ordered 2 850 Pros Friday night to setup in...
