When I first got this board I quickly got an M.2 Sata SSD and installed it into the only M.2 slot I could see (not realising there are 2). This slot is just above the top PCIE lane and is actually marked as the 2nd slot, however I couldn't do anything for the system to recognise anything was...
Hello. I was wondering if someone a lot smarter than me could help me understand as google has thus far turned up nothing I can grasp.
A while back i bought a Samsung 970 EVO Plus Polaris 500GB M.2 2280 PCI-e 3.0 x4 NVMe Solid State Drive to insert into one of 3 m.2 slots on my Z370 AORUS...
So this is the first time I've overclocked but I think I get all the basic premises, but had a question for people with experience with Load Line Calibration.
Firstly do LLC voltage spikes display in software or are they only viewable by using a multimeter? Because I'm trying to get an...
I've read the thousands of variations on this argument but I cant find a specific answer to this specific dilemma.
I have an Asus ROG Z370f and want to buy a 2nd hand i7 8700k or i7 9700k but from what I can tell the performance is almost identical if you overclock the 8700k to 5gz which would...
When I moved back from a 1700X to an 8700K I blindly bought the CPU and literally the cheapest motherboard I could find which was an Asus Prime Z370-P.
If I try to even modestly overclock it (x47 all core)
Whilst it "tells" me it is running the multiplier at x47 it very rarely manages to make...
Hi,
Not so long ago, I purchased the i7-8700K and was looking forward to a new high-end build. Unbelievably, the CPU has bent on one side after installing the Corsair H115i Pro RGB. I didn't use any excess force, installed the processor using the standard cross formation and I can't believe a...
Hi,
I recently got the ASRock Z370 Gaming K6 and encountering an issue. Annoyingly, the motherboard won't power on at all, the connected fans don't work and of course, it fails to post. I checked the PSU when pressing the power button and the fan doesn't spin despite manually disabling eco...
Hi all,
Just finished building my new Z370 system and the only thing which is acting weird is the motherboard's HDMI port. When plugging in the cable it's all fine and posts a perfect image. However, the screen flashes black every so often. It's quite random and doesn't seem to be a result of...
Paging @GIGA-Man.
I've taken a chance on the Z370 in the hope it will have sufficient space to cope with my Nofan CR-95 cooler and my two GPUs. The motherboard has arrived and with it a utility CD. I can't find my optical drive right now and I'm looking at the support download page: am I...
This PC is becoming too flakey and it's time for an upgrade anyway.
The main uses are (not in any order) gaming, browsing, and MS Office. I will not be overclocking.
I'm thinking of Z370 / i5-8400. I may indulge in an 8700. As I game at 4K with two Maxwell Titan X cards I need SLI support. I...
I'm looking at getting a Z370 motherboard from ASRock as they appear to have excellent components for the money. Just wondering if the warranty is for 3 years and efficient compared to Gigabyte who i usually go for.
Hi All, I'm looking at getting a Z370 motherboard and can spend between £120-£230. The Hero is at a decent price at the moment but it's still far from cheap. I've heard the ASRock has great VRMs although it's lacking a post code and other overclocking extras. Do you think the ASUS motherboard is...
Guys im a bit lost on whats going on with this, I've just upgraded from the z97x gaming 5 with 4790k platform and I used this drive as my boot windows drive no issues.
installed all the new stuff and installed the m.2, Updated the mobo Bios to the F7 ver straight away as i couldn't see the m.2...
Hi,
Recently, my i7 5820K stopped posting and has been tested on several motherboards. It's just under warranty with Intel so I could get it replaced. Saying that, the X99 motherboards are difficult to find and models such as the Strix X99 Gaming can cost around £250, which seems a bad...
Hi All,
Im looking for some advice about RAM.
I have the Z370 Aorus Gaming 5 and an Intel 8700K CPU. I was originally looking at the
8Pack TEAM GROUP DARK PRO " EDITION" 16GB 3200MHZ RAM to go with this.
Now the CPU page only states that the "Supported" RAM it goes up to is DDR4-2666 and...
Just starting this project now and collecting parts. I have not water cooled a PC since 2002, not sure why I am doing it now but here goes. Also building a Threadripper server but I will post a new log for that.
Parts so far:
Enthoo Evolv TG mATX Silver
Asus ROG STRIX Z370-G GAMING (WI-FI AC)...
Hi all,
Looking at Z370 Asus boards. What is the difference between TUF and ROG?
I realise that the ROG is the better board but why is it? Does TUF have the same quality components as the ROG? I know that the lower end Z370-A doesn't have the same quality components as the ROG.
I ask because...
