    OLOy 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3200 $99.99

    I tried 3333 with my z370 & 9700k: prime95 crashed in seconds then bsod; intel burn test failed 2nd iteration. I'm still not sure this ram is stable at 3200 (prime95 returns an error after ~10 minutes).

    Asus Z370-G win 7, no problems

    Hi all, good experience with this board / drivers; Asus has win7 drivers posted on their website. Currently running win7 with an 8th gen Celeron while waiting for my 9700k to be shipped. I downloaded latest chipset and usb3.0 drivers directly from intel.com prior to swapping the board and cpu -...

    IBM 1391472 spacesaver. Not shown: circa 2008? MS sidewinder gaming mouse. Also in the rotation: CM Storm Quickfire Rapid with green switches, side printed keys (very happy with this; I like it better than the filco 10keyless).

    Creative Sound Blaster Z $80.39

    Titanium HD has better S/N and swappable op-amps. I had one, really liked it, but it's on ebay now. I wanted the option for 5.1 sound, this will certainly be "good enough"! I'll post here when I get my card. I'm using AD-700 phones. The Z can drive up to 600 ohm headphones, which is another + vs...

    If you bothered to click your own google image url (http://personalaudio.ru/detail/foto_kart_sound_blaster_z_i_zxr_iznutri/) you'd find out that's a pict of the ZxR board. The only difference between the Z and the Zx is the inclusion of the volume knob / microphone port accessory. They have the...

    Don't worry. I also got a free tube of IC diamond to test, and replaced my shin etsu install; no difference.

    Anyone ever order a retail 920 and get...

    You are the one avoiding the issues Kyle. Newegg likely can't say they are counterfeit until Intel tells them in writing that they are (caveat: I am not a lawyer). And it looks like this has been done recently. To say anything else would open them up to legal exposure from the supplier. Is...

    Anyone ever order a retail 920 and get...

    It's not a big deal. Newegg is taking care of their customers. I don't see why Newegg should be criticized by [H]. The front page story even mentions that the supplier is threatening legal action to [H] so what do you think they are telling Newegg they will do if Newegg claims they are anything...

    WTB Quality 30" gaming lcd

    3007 refurb from dell. Mine was $6xx (with coupons), I think it's $700-$800 w/o coupons or other discounts. 3 year warranty, mine appeared to be brand new, can't beat it for the money. IPS, no scalar (very low input lag)

    Intel 34nm SSD will have a 60% reduction in price!

    I agree with Griff805 100%. Intel released a drive that worked great from Day 1, with no OS tweaks needed. When an issue was identified they released firmware for it, and the firmware update was a lot less painful than updates on drives from other manufacturers (OCZ) *and* it fully addressed the...

    They didn't use crappy metal. Everyone else gets the same thing. Solder and leads simply won't oxidize in free air in that timeframe. I agree with the above poster, it got wet somehow. If you lived by the ocean you would see uniform corrosion, but it's limited to specific areas. I'm sorry but I...

    Do I just need a videocard upgrade?

    Xigmatek dark night is by far the most cost effective / highest performing cooler ($40 free ship + tax @ newegg). And it comes with both a bolt kit and a 1366 bracket so you can recycle it later when you go i7. TRUE is only a degree or so better, and costs 2x more. Before you do this OC the cpu...

    No, I have this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231225 I'm currently at 2:8 (ddr 14xx), 3.6 ghz, 1.1000V, temps went way down. The ram is at 9-9-9-24, 1.5V; try 2:8 first and work up if you must (you gain very little). PS you probably should not be hotlinking that...

    Wow nice ram. I have the F3-12800CL9T-6GBNQ (ddr3-1600). I am running it at 2:8 (1066). Try that first, and work up from there. I'm currently at 3.2 GHz, everything is stock (except for ram, which is currently at 1200). I just got the system up today, I haven't had a chance to play with it yet...

    Reliable place to purchase an i7 920 with D0 stepping?

    I got mine on ebay from this guy, 12% off w/ live cash. Fast shipping! But, the W3520 on newegg also looks very tempting.

    Because I ordered a D0 920 and the board won't boot up with this stepping unless it has been flashed with a more recent bios.

    ASUS Rampage II X58 mATX ETA ...

    Hi everyone, I just picked up a newegg open box. Unfortunately it was OEM, so no accessories. Question: what are the chances that it will boot up a D0 920? Asus wants $15 to mail me a flashed bios, or I can send them my flash and a return envelope w/ postage.

    Quick Poll on Rampage 2 GENE memory...

    If I get 1333 ram and run a divider, even at 4 GHz (I'd be happy with that OC) the ram would be at 1200. Would the system be stable / happy at DDR3 1200 vs DDR3 1600? thanks!
