    X570 options after issues with X370-f Strix & iCue

    Hi all, After a bit of advice on motherboard options to swap out my X370-f Strix board. Long story short I have had system crashes which after a long period of fact finding seem to be down to incompatibility between Asus boards and Corsair iCue as well as an odd CPU temperature reading anomaly...

    4x8GB on X370-F & 2700x

    I saw a reddit thread saying a guy had 32gb running stable on hiss 1700 but struggled on the 2700x to get over 2933. Either way the general opinion seems to be 32gb is simply overkill for gaming? I will recheck my bios settings later for how I overclocked the RAM speed as I messed around slot...

    4x8GB on X370-F & 2700x

    Threepwood: Is that particular RAM not well rated then? As far as I know it's been running 3200mhz stable?

    4x8GB on X370-F & 2700x

    After doing a bit more reading it seems my fears were correct and 32gb is just overkill for gaming and not required. Therefore when the RAM arrives Monday I think I will send it back and instead spend the money on upgrading to a 2tb ssd. Chime in if you think I've missed something, cheers.

    4x8GB on X370-F & 2700x

    Evening Gents, Today i saw an OCUK ad for the following memory which I got in my Ryzen bundle and went ahead as I presumed 32GB has got to be better than 16GB:- https://www.overclockers.co.uk/team-group-8pack-edition-16gb-2x8gb-ddr4-pc4-25600c14-3200mhz-dual-channel-kit-black-my-08l-tg.html I...

    Asus Monitor RMA

    Just by the title a few of you will likely know what's coming... So Asus warrantied my monitor and this morning the "replacement" arrived from LetMeRepair UK... It arrived in a unbranded box far too large with some bubble wrap around it despite when calling LetMeRepair UK I was told it would...

    PG278QR backlight bleed / thunder flies!

    So bit of an interesting development and just need some advice from you good folk on where I stand. I contacted Asus RMA directly re the monitor and they have initially rejected the claim as the serial number is not from a UK / Ireland product so have requested proof of purchase as well as...

    PG278QR backlight bleed / thunder flies!

    No dice with OCUK they said that this would be seen as an act of god and any warranty would be rejected by their suppliers but suggested to contact Asus directly. Have a feeling I am going to be left in the lurch with this unless I can work out how to safely strip the monitor to remove the flies!

    PG278QR backlight bleed / thunder flies!

    Evening gents, hope you are all well! Just after a bit of advice as I'm having a couple of issues with my Asus PG278QR... I've had the monitor for around 6 months and whilst I think it's a great screen I've ran into a couple of problems. First the backlight bleed seems pretty bad when gaming...

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    I have this turned on in the bios, I think it is called quick boot but can certainly try turning it off!

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    Sorry i never replied to this but yes it was RMA'd for a replacement X370-f, the thing is OCUK must have sold enough of these bundles by now to have seen this issue with someone else, I obviously have bad luck but I can't be so unlucky that I had two faulty boards with the exact same issue after...

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    Well its been just under a month without the Aorus software (no Asus suite installed) and was starting to get hopeful but it would appear that it hard crashed again tonight. Wasn't at the PC when it happened this time but came back to it to find it at the windows login screen which must mean...

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    I'm at my wits end with it to be honest. So far I have replaced: CPU Motherboard PSU CPU cooler On top of that I have ticked off so many other random things it might have been but too many to list but include GPU and RAM being tested and many software / cable component removing. I am now...

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    So have been running for 22 and a half hours since last nights hard crash (without aorus engine) but have just noticed this in HWinfo64. It would appear that the anomalous readings do register here but very rarely in comparison to Ryzen Master... not feeling confident.

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    So I was hoping this was put to rest but this evening after booting up my PC and leaving it for a little while on desktop I came back to find that it had hard crashed as before... Only things that have happened / I have done recently are installing the Aorus Software again (after not having it...

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    I was just about to post in here to say that the worst of my two issues (hard crash) seems to now have been resolved with the PSU change so touch wood this now wont come back. However if you are getting the same temp anomalies I would recommend using HWinfo64 for monitoring as I have not once...

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    Don't want to jynx myself but happily the rig ran all last night for just over 9 hours without hard crash. Only odd thing was gpu fans (2 out of the 3) were on this morning which I noticed as fan off light was off but after a quick run of heaven benchmark all 3 kicked off as they should and...

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    Ok so after an evening of running I have not had the hard crash yet but going to leave it running overnight to try and confirm this. Did notice in HWinfo64 however that the GPU shows the following readings:- Performance Limit - Power (Maximum) Yes Performance Limit - Reliability Voltage...

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    Rig rebuilt with RM850x. Oddness so far is one of my mechanical hard drives isn't showing but I did change the SATA cable out so must be a faulty cable or something. That and it took a really long time to actually shut down on the first try which I've never seen before, shut down as normal...

    2700x Temperature Reading Anomaly (-10, -57, +107 & +196)

    Abandoned stripping out the PSU tonight to get the h150i pro in to check cpu and thankfully it looks to have survived unscathed! That had me really worried for a bit!
