    Question Asrock Z790 PG-itx memory controller and compatibility ?

    Hi all, I want to use the Asrock z790 pg-itx board, but I've already purchased this memory. It's hynix a-die rated at 7600mhz. Will it be possible or is the memory controller on the board simply not capable of those speeds? Thanks

    [SOLVED] Memory Timings not sync 100% to exact value and have decimals.

    I've used DRam Ryzen Calculator with my DDR4-4000MHz CL16 (F4-4000C16D-32GTRS ). Max with that software is at frequency of 3866MHz. Running at stock DOCP 4000MHz, RAM works fine, but 5900x CPU's FClock won't play nice in my case if i set to 2000MHz (1:1) ratio. System will always have CRITICAL...

    [SOLVED] Can any processor use any type of RAM as long as the motherboard supports it?

    Can any processor use any type of RAM (DDR, DDR2, DDR3, DDR4, DDR5) as long as the motherboard has the correct socket for the type of RAM? Or is it dependent on the memory controller in the CPU?

    After moving, windows 7 rig unable to boot with disc.

    Okay, I'm a bit of a novice so I'll try to explain the best I can. I've currently been moving for the past 8-10 months so I've had my computer in storage. I had it in with my clothes in a plastic container, anyway. Finally moved, internet hooked up. I went to turn it on and I get Windows Boot...

    Just Cause 3 Bad Performance..

    Hello. I've got an R9 270x 2gb GPU and an i5 4690k but the game stutters a lot. Even with low settings at 720p. I see that the game isn't even utilizing much more than 70% of my CPU and 60% of the GPU. What's the problem? - Sam
