Asrock P67 Extreme4 UEFI & Drivers thread [Extreme6 & Pro3 owners welcome]

[pythonse]

so if u guys dont mind me asking....if someone were to build a new rig for gaming and wanted to "future proof"..is the extreme 6 worth the extra money over the extreme 4? thank you

I had already bought the motherboard, havn bought the processor yet..

Hmmm.. wait , i go see whether I can squeeze in more cash into the budget to buy at least a 2500K.

anything else I need to look out for ?

but I wont be overclocking that high... at most 4ghz should be enough for me. which processor is suitable for me.. new to this kind of processor.

If you only want 4GHz, the 2400 will let you have that easily.

Anybody here experienced a debug 45 code? I can't seem to run my gskills in dual channel now. If I put them in the black ram slots the pc just hangs and displays code 45. This is after installing a venomous x but I haven't even used the pressure plates yet! What gives?

Black DIMM slots? The Extreme boards have white and blue DIMM slots..

Does anyone know or has already tried to run an Intel Xeon E3 (for example 1230 or 1240) on an Asrock P67 mainboard??

On some H67 boards it does run but I would be interested to run it on my Extreme4....

No idea, if you already have it, try it

Extreme 4 will give you everything you need. Only reason to get the Extreme 6 would be for the 2 extra SATA ports, and e-peen rights if you just want to say you have a 16-phase mobo. Do remember if you opt for the Extreme 6 you can't use a full length PCI-E card in the top PCI-E slot (which is why I went for the Extreme 4)

okay... thanks.. if that the case, i will go buy either 2400 or 2500 instead.

will only overclock if I find that it is slow ... will be using this rig until the Z77 release in next year...
