  2. The younger generation on the internet instantly and aggressively shouts down anything they don't take part in or don't understand. I blame the teachers and educational institutions as a whole
  3. Everything. NICs, sata ports, S.M.A.R.T., boot from USB, multiple devices selected in boot order.
  4. The more complicated the board/chipset, the longer it will take to post. Go into the BIOS and disable everything you're not using.
  5. Z97's M.2 slot is slow.. nvme drives won't run anywhere near their rated speed. Most mainstream platform boards don't have 7 pcie slots because of available pcie lanes, even my Z97 Classified with PLX chip for 4-way SLI/Crossfire only has 6. The only one I know of is the ASUS WS board and not all of those are full x16 size slots.
  6. Lol my dudes, my Kingpin CPU pot was $110. We get it, you think overclocking is lame but video games are awesome.
  7. Used E5-2683 v3 (OEM/Retail) is the best deal IMO.
  8. Its 2 E5-2699 v3 Edit: damn.
  9. Would you spend more than $150 on a board that was decked out with quality features but styled after the signature styles of time periods in the past?
  10. Ah that's why then. They were really good back in the day. For non-benching I think I'd save and wait for a deal on a ASUS X58 Supercomputer. Best board if not overclocking and benching. EDIT: Not the asrock the ASUS x58 p6t7 ws supercomputer.
  11. I've been seeing EVGA X58 Classifieds on ebay lately for around $100. Dumb luck or what they go for I'm not sure.
  12. @NumLock21 reminds me of my Abit boards. Looking for a IC7 MAX3 if anyone has one.
  13. Back when the mobo was just as important as the CPU for overclocking. Legit OC.
  14. They'd probably be low-end or ultimate baller so possibly practrical The best are the NB sinks on the EP45 and EP45T Extreme. A mans board
  15. Am I the only one that would by vintage looking boards from manufacturers past styles? The Gigabyte EPYC board is very nostalgic for me, I loved those X58 boards and it's a spitting image of them. If ASUS did a throwback to the X48 REX/P45 Max II Formula/X58 REX II I'd bust a nut and buy 2 or 3 lol, it's the most attractive board ever, esp with red RAM

    Yeah that's a sick OC. I'm tapped for cash at the moment but for sure on the chips. Have feelers out for so much hardware there's a backlog of people holding stuff.
