[OFFICIAL] Asus Strix/Maximus Z690 Owners Thread

question of the day.

one year passed (more or less) and Asus is still not able to make Alder Lake work on their Z690 boards.
do you think that your stupidly expensive Asus Z690 board will ever be able to run Raptor Lake?

I think the dark I just purchased is going to be fun to play with when it gets here.

Mine's here on Thursday along with a kit of Fury Beast 6000C40. Will be able to bin and maybe see which kit does 7200. The Dark ended up being $650 with shipping and customs to here so I hope it will be worth it.

Thinking of switching out my Team Group 6200 for Kingston Renegade 6400 (surprisingly cheap btw), the Team Group modules is to wide for my RAM cooler so mainly thats the reason.

Is the Hynix A-Die out yet? should i wait for these?

Asus and Corsair acknoledged the RGB problem on the Z690 Extreme when paired with Corsair Dominator.

Asus Z690 Extreme hangs on boot due to iCue.

forum.corsair.com

still no fix.

What bios were you on before, didn't you say before you were stuck at 3867, was that gear2?

Yeah that was my gear 2 profile on Bios 1304.

I'm testing higher frequencies on gear 2 now, 3900 seems to be stable at the moment

As I said before whoever is having big issues with his/her board - sell it ASAP, you'll be completely out of luck when Z790 arrives.

If I bought a motherboard means that I need it, I can't sell it now since I'm using it.

有人用 hynix a die on apex 測試了 7000+ 的穩定性嗎？

無法讓我的套件在頂點上穩定，而在黑暗和 ux 上，做 7400-7466 穩定沒問題

當我發送給我的時候，我會測試一個穩定性。目前，只有一個會先玩。

Oh sorry for the misunderstanding. If it is not too much to ask and if you have the time to make one for the hero it would be perfect. As I'm not serene about making one myself and dealing with a failed attempt.

All have problems, even EVGA, you have been plagued with a few

, but that does not mean its not working my system only had problems with more Overclock and using corsair dominator 5600 (did not have any issues with RGB like you) but after changed for the Tforce 6400 dont have dificulty (cant say problems) every case is not unique, but yes Asus are dropping the ball on alot of products the lastest power supply 1600W is a joke from the video i posted few pages back the motherboards are not 100% QC and tested proprely, and bios releases or cleary a hit and miss on testing just halfbaked iam using 1701 beta and its fine, but no every one uses this forum.....

once more iam sorry to hear you still have problems, you should buy the new Z790 and after sell your Z690 extreme, iam staying on my Z690 extreme and upgrading my KS for the new 13900k

cheers

EVGA has different problems, also the BIOS interface and available options are very crude compared to ASUS...like it's a budget board, not even fan step up/down delay available.

Can we expect Hynix A-Die to start coming out in the marked for the different brands in near future, or will the availability mainly be the "regular" M-Die?

Considering the really stellar prices that have been going on lately on Hynix M-Die, I have a feeling A-Die will be rolling out relatively sooner in mainstream sets.

Thank you for taking the time to make one for the Hero. And for doing it so quickly.

I was anything but quick, but you're welcome nevertheless.

Well you had no obligation to do it. You used your own time to help and so i would say that was still quick.

Basically you just remove the crap microcode and add in 18 or 15 (KS/K).

Could you explain how to do it?
