Hi, um, I know you said a cloth mouse pad is not ideal, but have you tried the Gigabyte one (gigabyte MP8000) it was actually designed with your mouse in mind, it's a relatively good size and I find it works well for me (I do have a much...

quick update, I got the 990fx pro (fatal1ty) board, everything seems to be in order (once I figured out the correct settings for the memory to post my board). My issue seems to be resolved, so I guess you were right on the money with the...

Thanks for the suggestions, however, I've noticed the asrock fata1ity 990fx boards have recently dropped in price (presumably since extreme9 release). also 12+2 phases. Anybody had bad experience with this board?

yes, I see now, it's really hot to the touch. maybe this board is not going to be good for the new CPU's then, It was good for 3.8Ghz with the phenom 965, but thinking the 4+1 phases just aren't going to cut it anymore lol. well.......

I use the zalman z9u3 case, and have 4 120mm fans installed, 2 front intake, 1 bottom intake and 1 top exhaust, plus the corsair H70 as an exhaust... There is a space for another top fan above the H70 radiator, but it would have to be...

Hi all, I have an 8350, which I was going to OC. However, I was going to test performance first using LinX, but when the CPU is at 100% load, and reaches around 42*c, all cores underclock to 1.4Ghz? Is there a BIOS setting that can stop...

I have an issue with this also, its out with the cpu, like 500mhz or so (stock fx 8350) and shows my ram to be at 667mhz (vengeance 1600). CPUz shows the correct info though.

I am having a very similar issue here. fx 6100 underclocks to 3Ghz upon starting LinX test. also, cpu-nb is set to 2000mhz even though bios is set to 2200mhz? I can't find the APM setting on this motherboard at all, but CnQ is disabled,...

I have a system with an athlon II x2 245 and that struggles with ram anywhere above 1450mhz, however this is on a cheap asrock n68-s motherboard (AM2+ platform, lowers HT to 1000Mhz) . All chips are different tho and coupled with the...
