Asus to get a motherboarding

By Sylvie Barak

From personal experience:

All first gen i7's

W35xx Xeon's (3570 needs no introduction fastest i7 ever made)

The rest I have no clue.

P011 is a crap BIOS, be warned.

Have you tried reverting to an different BIOS yet? Are your HDD working correctly?

Is the OS reporting the CPU correctly?

Howdy all, been here a while, watch and read a lot- I dont comment very often.

But now I am pissed off!!!!

I Upgraded an i7 920 CPU to a Xeon W3570 CPU, for Sli reasons, (Basically an extreme...

I wish I would have never made this purchase (Bloodrage), worst support I have ever seen- worse even then Asus- which is saying alot (oddly, Foxconn makes many of the Asus boards- go figure). After a...

Hi guys, long time no see-

need a little help, for some odd reason after a windows update my HDD doesnt load on start up I have to select what I want to load- I can not for the life of me...

Hi Mes,

Please realize I am running at nearly default voltages, and 400Mhz faster then you, with the correct voltage/ampreage stabilties designed into the board this is not an issue, note,...

True Saaya, but subsidiaries of parent Japaneese companies....so....? ;)

Mes, I am running nearly 400Mhz faster then you (memory) - try running the M/B to it's fully advertised potential, it gets...

Mes.... update your audio drivers (the latest) and see what happens......

The audio is a very frustrating problem to me, no sound and my H/T is pretty much useless.

update the intel chip set...

I can not believe this.

As a Foxconn customer I am supposed to "greatful" for a working product?

I am supposed to "beg" "borrow" and "steal" to get a working "performance" PC?

Hmmm...and...

BTW, utnorris, you can never have to much "pure" energy i.e "ampreage", this also allows for better system cooling, for a few obvious reasons. Hence why many people "over buy" for their PSU needs- at...

hello again,

well I was just reading thru the latest and saw several complaints. They very much reminded me of some of my troubles when I began with i7, it is a very picky set up with concern to...

please post memory and spd charts from cpuz.

thank you

Howdy all, been some time since I last came here.

After reading about the "new" BIOS, I do not understand what the need for it was?

P08 or G25 it matters not. P08 is more stable, but both will...

^ oh seriously...come on, the MSI will not match the BR ...that is, if you know what you're doing. But if you prefer "auto over clocking" well then, have fun.

Sounds like frustration from lack of...

web site still "missing". wow, what a great advertising venture- no "apparent" support. and foxconns web site is lack luster at best concerning the BR.

over 2 mos. now, wow.

tell ya what, I...

I am beginning to feel foxconn has quit on us. There is no longer any website for the quantum force produts to my knowledge, and the main system d/l's page is little to no use.

I bought this...

Hi, and :welcome:

To answer, in my experience (so far) uncore should be two times the mem multi- no more no less.

Also, with G25, take all voltages up to the point they are one step before they...

WTH?

Has Foxconn stoped support of these new x58 boards?

Web site is always down, never any updates, what gives? :shrug:

congrats.... however, do not be displeased if you recieve a good co/c1- mine will go to 4.55 on air momentarily- even pass a few tests, but then no go, and mind you heat is not the...

well sorry for the downer guys and gals, but it is my nature to make what can be perfect- be perfect. If you are happy with what you have, well then, worry not of it, if, however you are not, well...

Well in my 14 years of experience I have never had a bad GSKILL product, and this way back when 266mhz was the rig to own. Usually, not always, GSKILL is about 80% of their rating (to the positive...

well I suppose so- if you're having issues that are described in the eratta tables.

However, I am not sure- I personally have the s1 and video issue described in the eratta table- does that mean...

sorry, I found this while doing some reading at Intel's web site. I hope this doesnt stress any of you out too much, but it is good info dont cha' think?

as you can see there are many issues with the i7 that many people are considering mainboard problems, ironically, they are CPU...
