just brought this mobo already having faulst with it...

1. have to reset pc from idle period of 10 mins as screen dont come back on.
2. bluetooth dont work.. all drivers installed. & its active.
3. microsoft / reclusa keyboard dont always work.

confused about which sltos to put ram sticks in. on the mobo it says 2 & 4 first... thought commong pratice was 1 & 3 first.. no indication in the maunal either soo ... ???

other than that it dont seem to bad, ram rating of 7.8 @1600 my old 1066 ram used to return a 7.8 also..
 
I been using the Auto OC for a couple weeks now, cause i just wanted my PC up and running and start using it, I now want to OC it manually. I done this before but I'm unsure on what settings to use in the BIOS. Anybody got a image or guide to what settings to use?

Once i know what to use i can start adjusting the voltage to OC :)

Thanks!
 
Got this board last week after my gigabyte gave up the ghost and it is already 10 times better, much better overclock with lower volts, and it helps that it looks a lot better too.
 
can anyone tell me what features need to be enabled/disabled to manually overclock a i5 3570k on this motherboard.
I havent overclocked in a while (last cpu was a Q9450 on a NF790i MB) so i bit confused by the new UEFI layout and options
