Got it up to 3800Mhz but unfortunately it still says it's way below average. Should quad channel be hitting 70GB/s rather than 30?

That's what the sticks are rated for, as it's 3800Mhz RAM. Not too loose really for those speeds. 3000Mhz would be down to 15,15,15, for example.

It's slotted into the A1 C1 and B1 D1 (what the manual suggests) With you saying it's normal, the problem is that it doesn't know what RAM I'm using. It's just 4x 16, and if you compare it to the results at 2400mhz for example it actually performs worse.

Hi everyone! Just trying to sort out an X299 rig and I'm not sure if something is up with the memory performance, as I'm not really reaching quad channel speeds. I've attached a picture of the User Benchmark score, and it seems to be pretty low for a quad channel setup. The RAM currently is 4x 16GB 3800Mhz (though I have it set to 3600Mhz in the bios as stability isn't great for some reason). Manually keyed in the timings - 19,19,19,39 and made sure that the voltage is 1.35. That said, this might be totally normal... but honestly I wouldn't have thought a FAST memory kit in QUAD CHANNEL mode would score 'below potential'. I've tested the memory bandwidth with a different benchmark tool and it's similar... any thoughts? Motherboard is an Asrock Professional Gaming i9 Cheers!

I'd be interested in a ZBOX because I could strap it to the back of a monitor and have an all in one PC

Anybody?

Hi all, I use Sony Vegas for video editing and it supports GPU acceleration through OpenCL. Unfortunately this isn't supported very well by nVidia Geforce cards (Quadro being a different story) so would crash regularly. This was fixed by adding an AMD R9 270x to my comp, which I use only for Vegas, with my nVidia card running the display and games etc (would prefer to stick to nVidia due to power efficiency, and also 3D Vision, G-Sync etc). Literally no problems in this config... except that I have to have the nVidia in the primary PCI-E 16x slot for the mobo to select it as the primary card for display. Due to wanting to make a custom case, I need to have the card on the second PCI-E slot right on the edge of the board (Asus ROG Maximus IV Gene). Works fine if the nVidia card is plugged in by itself, but adding the AMD card to the primary slot messes things up and takes over as the main display card. So, my question is: is there any way to change which PCI-E slot on the motherboard is treated as the primary slot for graphics? Either in the BIOS, or in Windows?
