  1. I have same configuration (3080ti & S90C) and it works fine on 4k HDR VRR 144hz 10bit. Just make sure you are using the right cable (I'm using HDMI cable that came with PS5) HDMI-HDMI. Also, make sure game mode is enabled from TV.
  2. First of all apologies if I am writing something doesn't make sense or not clear as English is not my first language but I'll do my best. I need help with two problems. The first one happens when I turn on my PC. The colors look very bad (looks like if contrast is VERY high) but when I go to windows settings and turn off HDR then turn it back on the problem is solved. This is annoying as I have to do it almost every time I turn on my PC. Below are some info that might help: WIN 10 64bit (19041,208) CPU: I7 6800K GPU: GTX 1080 founder's edition (drivers updated) System is connected to AV receiver (SONY STR-DN-1080) via HDMI then to Sony TV (KD-55X7000D) also via HDMI cable. My NVIDIA control panel settings: 4k, 60hrz, RGB, 8bit, Full, HDR is turned on from windows settings. Second problem is that when I play some non HDR games such as Dying light and Resident Evil Revelations 2, the colors look weird, too much red color like if there is a filter on the game. (check the attachment). What makes it even more weird is that when I go border-less window while playing Dying Light, the problem is gone!!! Attachment 1 pic while full screen Attachment 2 pic while borderless window (colors are correct) Note: Tried to take screenshot but when I paste the screenshot the colors are fine! when I go back full screen problem happens again! I am doubting HDR settings, is it possible to make two NVIDIA color profiles, one profile for HDR games and one profile for non HDR games? or what do you think the problem is? Thank you شكراً جزيلاً
  3. Thank you all for your inputs. This video helped me soooooo much. I was worried about the PCI bandwidth if I add an additional graphics card. Thanks to this guy .. now I can see that there's almost no difference between 28-lane and 40-lane CPUs for up to three cards build. so this is my build: CPU: Intel Core i7-6800K 3.4GHz 6-Core CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i 77.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler Motherboard: Asus ROG STRIX X99 GAMING ATX LGA2011-3 Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 - 8GB (GDDR5X) Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR4-2400 Storage: 2X Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive Samsung 950 PRO 256GB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive Case: Corsair 780T ATX Full Tower black Power Supply: EVGA 850W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply Any compatibility issues? or any suggestions?
  4. Thank you for your reply but all those motherboards are for LGA 1151 CPUs, 6800K is 2011-v3 regarding the RAM, how do you know that the CPU supports only 4 sticks? It supports 4 channels which can be 8 sticks (2 sticks per channel). One thing I'm not sure of is which config. is better 4*16 or 8*8 sticks of RAM.
  5. I don't care about the color ?. Yes I might add additional video card in the future. For now, I think one will be enough.
  6. Not sure if it does directly, but I can get it anyway through Aramex Shop and Ship service.
  7. getting all parts from Amazon and Newegg so I don't think it matters to which country but to answer your question it's Saudi Arabia
  8. I am planning to build a gaming pc with the following parts: CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-6800K Processor (6x 3.40GHz/15MB L3 Cache) 2011-v3 GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 - 8GB (GDDR5X) Memory: CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 64GB (8 x 8GB) DDR4 2400 Storage: Samsung 950 PRO Series - 256GB PCIe NVMe - M.2 Internal SSD (bootable for Windows) + (2X) Samsung 850 EVO 250GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD (put them in raid0) + any mechanical harddrive for more storage so I'm looking for a motherboard that supports bootable m.2X4 SSD << at full speed + raid0 for my other two SSDs (SATAIII) + DDR4 at 2400 Quad channels (up to 128GB) I've been reading in motherboard's specs but I couldn't decide because I don't understand some details such as PCI x16 x8 x4 this is an example: 2 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x8 (PCIE_3/PCIE_4). Only AHCI mode is supported when an M.2 PCIe SSD or a SATA Express device is installed. (M2_10G, SATA Express, and SATA3 4/5 connectors can only be used one at a time. The SATA3 4/5 connectors will become unavailable when an M.2 SSD is installed in the M2_10G connector.) Chipset: 4 x SATA 6Gb/s connectors (sSATA3 0~3), supporting IDE and AHCI modes only (An operating system installed on the SATA3 0~5 connectors cannot be used on the sSATA3 0~3 connectors.) <<< WHAAAAT does that mean???. Those details make me unable to decide which motherboard is the best for my build. One more thing .. the CPU supports Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 . Is it for the overclocking? Is it important to be supported by the motherboard? for the budget, up to 600$ for the motherboard. I just wanna get the best for my parts and configuration and good for future upgrades (maybe one more graphics card MAX or add more storage) thanks
