    Z97 + i5-4670K boot loop

    Kinda weird because the store technician tested the board with my i5-4670K and G.Skill rams, but they used their own FSP branded PSU and it boots normally

    Z97 + i5-4670K boot loop

    I recently received an MSI Z97 Gaming 3 motherboard as a warranty replacement. Whenever I insert my RAMs into DIMM slot 2 and 4 for dual channeling mode, it boot loops. But when I insert the memory modules into DIMM slot 1 and 2, it boots properly. I went back to the store with my i5-4670K and...

    I had a warranty replacement for my MSI Z87 G45-Gaming, and MSI replaced it with MSI Z97 Gaming 3 motherboard. Will there be any issues pairing Z97 with i5-4670K?

    PhysX Card / GPU PSU requirement

    I recently upgraded my gpu to MSI GTX 760 OC. Since my friend doesn't have the money yet to buy my old GTX 550Ti, I'm planning to use it as a physx card with my new GTX 760. The question is, does my Cooler Master V650S psu have enough power for these two cards?

    Fan Speeds for i5-4670K

    I just OC'ed my processor using OC Genie and had it cranked up to 4.0GHz. Should I max out the fans of my Cooler Master Seidon 120M manually in the bios? The fans still have a minimum rpm in the settings and temps reach 45 degrees.

    MSI Z87 G45 Drivers

    Update: I wasn't able to update the bios since the motherboard can't also read the bootable CD that contains the latest bios.

    MSI vs GIGABYTE

    Yup it's all in Windows. I used Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, installed in in the SSD using DVD drive. I wanted to have it installed as a bootable USB flashdrive, but right off the bat the mobo doesnt detect it. I'm pretty sure that I selected the correct boot order and not the UEFI USB. Once...

    MSI vs GIGABYTE

    I had regrets buying an MSI Z87 - G45 gaming motherboard yesterday. Fresh from the box, it can't detect USB flashdrives, onboard audio doesn't work properly and it doesn't allow me to install the ethernet drivers. If updating the bios can't fix this, I'll switch to Gigabyte.
