Tbh mate, unless you encode a fair bit or use your computer for any CPU intensive tasks I wouldn't bother. Gaming at any res at 1080p and above will be minimal improvement

How does the 5820K compare to say the i7-4790K? Haven't really read up much about it but it could be a possible alternative upgrade? Although I guess it would mean buying DDR4 RAM (I have no idea if DDR3 works on the X99?)

 

[Bart_Hunt]

It doesn't.
If it's for gaming only, it's mostly an e-peen boost
For other applications, photo/video editing, might be worth looking at.

And the white Avexir were getting designed and soon to be white led version too.

Now that's the kind thing I like to read here.

Here is something a little special...

The Asus X99-S board is for system integrators only, as such it can't be sold online as a retail product...

This is out way around the issue

"Steamroller Asus X99" - Intel Core i7 Haswell-E DDR4 Configurable Bundle

Your bundle has a key feature that is missing two cores.

I have a few holidays to pay for first, but I've been waiting for these, so is it possible to order one without the overclock? (I need performance thanks to using CS6 etc., but I'm also more interested in long-term 24/7 reliability than a few MHz).

PS - I'd rather someone else fit the CPU and cooler which is why I'm interested in the bundle.

Small number of Rampage V Extreme in on Monday!

Will the Rampage V Extreme be arriving tomorrow?

 

[Captain]

Fingers crossed!

 

[Cosimo]

Fingers crossed!

Toes next!

Any movement on the RVE boards. Still hoping their shipping today, but it's not looking good.

Berserker: you still need to fit the cpu/cooler etc, they don't ship it built and it's more likely to be damaged.

Mine's been shipped.
