6950X and 16gb Corsair Dominator Platinum 3200mhz.

I was going to try the 3400mhz memory but after reading reviews I don't think the 6950X IMC is up to it.

I'll be going the same way. Hopefully we'll get an ETA soon.

I like the full speed M.2 even if populating the pci lanes. Just saw the price though eek! I'll have to stick with my X99 Sabertooth.

There's a quirk with the current board (in my signature) that reduces the M.2 speed if the memory runs faster than 2400Hz.

Have you seen any reviews on this board yet? As that's what I am waiting on.

Nothing so far, we've not even had a date for when it's being released.

Very expensive for a mobo - but what a mobo it is, I just could not resist, and so I have pre orderd. I am in the queue - yay.

Looking forward to a play with this.

Someone in another place has their hands on one which came in a plain white box!

We can only hope so. You getting a new chip also Kaap?

Quick question for you chaps and chapesses who are currently running the Ramage V, whats the on board audio like? As I am wondering if its worth keeping the Creative Sound Blaster Zx as I am looking at the other options as well.

ok so ive just seen the price on OcUK

524.99

seriosuly is this a sick joke or an inflated pre-order price

Would like one of the ten core monsters myself to play with, but I don't like the asking price - too rich for my blood. Still I do have an 8Pack 5960X

This is MSRP.

The board is working great in my testing.

The IMC is not strong at all on BW-E neither is Cache clocking. I prepared stuff for a review of the CPUs on this board prior to computex will try get it up tomorrow.

Is the above similar to Haswell E or worse ?

Are you getting new memory?

I am leaving my other 5960X systems alone.

I will be upgrading an old 3930k based PC and using the same type of memory as my other X99 systems.

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/corsair-dominator-platinum-16gb-4x4gb-ddr4-pc4-25600c16-3200mhz-quad-channel-kit-cmd16gx4m4b3200c-my-411-cs.html

I was hoping the IMC on the 6950X was going to be better but it does not look that way. Once the PC is up and running I will test out the IMC and see if it is worth trying something like 3400mhz DDR4.
