That was a good review Zac. I especially liked the LLC testing you did. I'm sure your findings apply across all the Asus X79 offerings. Although higher LLC is good for benchmark runs, I don't run LLC above Medium for 24/7 duty.Quote:

Full analysis
So i want my money back from this board. Have RMA'ed once and it just never works correctly, not happy with any aspect of it. I work in an IT shop so i have replaced every other component in the system. I hate this board. ASUS has 1 and 1 chance only to make this right......
Who do i talk to?
only one vdroop!Quote:

If you are based in North America send me a PM with a full system config and a systematic description of the issues. If there is a problem with the board then we can have a tech pre-test one for you. If you are located outside NA then you will need to contact support in your region.

With me the display gets stuck on 30, but the RIVE never fails to wake up with a stable overclock (BIOS 901, 1005, 1101). It's quite common for systems to hang or stay blank after waking up when there's a memory prob. If it's not that I don't have any other ideas in addition to what's been mentioned.Quote:

Are there stability advantages (my main concern) for enabling this option, and what are those specifically? Below is some info on my system:
Mobo: P9X79 Deluxe BIOS 0906
IRSTe: 3.0.0.3011 (from 3.0.0.3022 install)
Mode: RAID
6G_1: Vertex 3/MAX IOPS SSD
3G_3: WD Caviar Black (in mirror set with 3G_4)
3G_4: WD Caviar Black (in mirror set with 3G_3)
3G_5: Plextor Blueray
Thanks
Help!!
Just installed R4E and 3960.. but while I seem to be able to adjust the Multiplier Ok in bios and shows changed during start up ,, I always end up with a 12 multiplier / 1500mhz.. when in wondows
I did not do a fresh Windows installation.. could that be a reason.. I have even tried the cpu level up .. and when in windows a splash says its successful, but CPU Z and AIDA64 clearly show I seem to be stuck at 12multiplier. I am running the 006 bois now, but same with older one..
Perhaps I am missing something in the bios.. ?
I hope its human error not board/CPU.. strange .
Disable C1E and EIST in BIOS (CPU Performance Setting).
Tried that..thanks disabled both but still not budging from the 12 multiplier.. I am at a loss ...
Sounds like SpeedStep for sure. 12 is low multiplier used for idle state.
With CPU-Z open, if you load the system with Prime95 or LinX do you see the CPU frequency go back to full multiplier??
What are your basic BIOS settings? Take some screen captures and post them. Just what you have in Extreme Tweaker menu and CPU Settings under the Advanced menu.
Are you running your strap at 125?? (12 x 125 = 1500)
I am currently using the 125 strap and yes 1500mhz.. I did try and check cpu z under linx load.. same deal sticking at 12 multiplier. I will check to see if any templates I can use on the settings .. but to be honest think there is something else wrong..
In order to get the wrinkles out of your set up, try setting your strap back to 100, base clock at 100, and make sure you are setting your multiplier adjust for "All Cores."
Check and see if you are getting the correct speeds this way. Once you iron it out this way, you can go back and play with the strap and multipliers.
sounds like your LN2 Mode Jumper is @ Enabled position (BIOS shows ln2 mode ENable) & your Slow Mode Switch is flipped to ON
Wow!!... thats exactly the problem.. 1 minute.. fix.. multiplier running sweet now.Quote:

Mine stuck at 1200 & 1500 using fast setting, for 3 weeks. Tried every thing under the Sun. Last week I did a search again, (funny thing - when I clicked a link too this forum) throttling started working. Few days later I installed a revo 3 x2 with win7 64, still working great.
NOTE; I called Intel about this issue and found out they are having fits with the (memory-controller), plus I got signed up for a replacement when it becomes available. I also over-heard this was caused by disabling of the VT crap just before its release. I do not know if it includes the (X) series, I have the 3930K series.
I will have to add this one to my play book of answers.Quote:

I plan on actually building an open case system on a slide out tray on my desk. So I like the idea of the voltage headers on the Extreme. I notice the points are there on the Formula and the Gene, kind of. The solder point is there, and maybe a resistor? on the Forumula, but only the solder/test points on the Gene. Just wondering if it those are OK to use... I really just don't need all the extra slots or the cost they bring.
I wish they just added the plugs to all of them :(
You should never miss an opportunity to admit you are an idiot. Its good for the ego. The first computer I built... 486SX... I screwed the Mobo directly to the tray. Stand offs are stupid, what purpose could they serve. I had never had an electricity class. Yet.Quote:

the solder points are ok to use for the G/F
Rampage-IV-Gene BIOS 1103 is out.
Raja@ASUS - Check your PM again, still waiting on a reply/answer. Thank you.
