I wonder what that MemOK thing is. Asus + saying all memory is OK...interesting.

Case: Corsair 750D Airflow Edition

SSD: Micron 1100 2TB, Samsung 860 Evo 1tb
HDD: WD SE 2TB, WD Black 1tb 3 platter with over 10 years of power-on time
memory is A-ok? what does that mean?
and this pwm is sad... just sad...
i was laughing a while ago joking with a friend that next we will be 32phase pwm and then 48 and etc... and now it seems this might really happen

hello over9000 phase CPU power.
my gosh.

That mem. OK is a feature to alleviate RAM compatibility problems with the mobo.
Seriously, that 32ph PWM looks like tiny heatsinks to me.

How lame are phase wars? ASUS and Gigabyte please, for the love of god...
Any news on USB 3.0 implementation? The two ports that looked it (in leaked shots) are obscured on purpose here so either they are jerking us on or they've decided the third party controllers (NEC, Fujitsu) suck and have finally given up.
It's 2 indutors per phase from the looks of it - ASUS will probably brand it like their other '16' phase boards (multiplexed 8).
Hahahaha. ASUS owns, totally. Beat Gigabyte at pwms? Hilarious.
a single 8 phase digital pwm designed well will destroy all these crappy phases and likely be cheaper too.
Yes, the Volterra solution using their bigger slave IC's (45 amps each), blows holes in this stuff. Asus use a very low base switching frequency of 250KHz to keep efficiency figures high (to combat Gigiabyte's DES). There is nothing extreme about these multiplexed designs at all.
That's 8/16 phase pwm circuit for the cores.

What's next? A daughter board riser that plugs into a slot next to the CPU that has 64 or 128 phases?
32phase
and its not even highend talk about leaving i7 owners out in the cold.

these pwms look like as if someone tried to build a frame with lego bricks and then ran out of pieces

Why doesn't a Premium board can use a digital PWM? Hilarious 32 analog phase design, if it's suposed to be a premium hardware motherboard, use digital PWM and do not start a crazy marketing race against Gigabyte...
I've used MemOK on a CrosshairIII. It did the job but couldn't get Reaper DDR3 running at 1600MHz! Basically it runs a memory test algorithm at a variety of settings to give you stable memory. Its good for getting mismatched RAM working together but doesn't do XMP speeds.

I've seen too much marketing on this board to stay away from it....
I've always been a fan of the good old, reliable 4+1 phase!
