Down to 8GB RAM and things seem to be a bit quicker............ |

https://rog.asus.com/forum/showthrea...r-Overclocking In that guide there two essential settings that most definitely need to change for OCing, make sure you disable both the PCIe and CPU Spread Spectrum settings. Read through all the stuff in there and come back with questions and I can help a little (others could probably help more). But it really comes down to trial and error in finding the best settings for your system. |

I've almost fried my motherboard a few times, because of the multiple restarts it's done. I actually did fry two external mechanical drives because of that problem, which had all of my kid's baby pictures. Call it laziness, but it would be more of a pain in the ass to remove it than to just leave it in and deal with the daily reposting. One thing I can tell you is that I'll NEVER get another Rosewill again. Once I start my new build soon, I'll finally swap it out for something more reliable.
Spoiler!

Another thing I wanted to try was perhaps taking out the m.2 drive and silverstone PCIE adaptor card and reinstalling windows 10 on a normal SSD just to eliminate this side of things. If i cant find this bug (which i am starting to think its the motherboard) looking at new board/cpu - was considering the ASUS ROG Maximus XI Extreme with i7 8700k and a ASUS Strix 2070. I have 32GB Corsair DDR4 RAM from another PC already and was going to reuse my SSD and m.2 drive and CPU cooler and case any thoughts on this combination ? - I manly game and do some video editing. Currently I have the RAMPAGE IV Black edition 32GB Corsair DDR3, i7 4930k CPU and GTX 980 graphics card Down to 8GB RAM and things seem to be a bit quicker............ |

Gorgeous  I'm quite looking forward to blowing my first few paychecks @ this new gig on another dream machine. It's about time. This 9700k & 1080ti is one of the most disappointing upgrades I've ever made. NVLink titans, x299, etc
