Hello all! Idk if this is the right section to post this in, but here it goes. I am building my friend his first PC with a few extra parts I had lying around. These parts include an i7-5930k cpu, an x99 Sabertooth motherboard, and a Samsung 960 evo m.2 sata. In theory these parts should be able to work together no problem, but the m.2 isn't showing up in the BIOS. I have tried to update drivers using a HDD I have lying around, but still no cigar. I attempted to read the manual for the x99 to best understand why I was have such difficulty and, in the expansion slot section, it shows that 28-lane cpus have access to the m.2 slot, but did not specify for 40-lane ones like the 5930k. Can someone please offer some guidance; is this configuration a lost cause, or is it possible to use my m.2 in this build, and if so how?

I bought a motherboard and processor together. It's an Asus z170s sabertooth, the arctic camo, I have been attempting to get this to post for over a week now. Tried multiple ram speeds, tried them individually and together. The power led comes on and stays on on start up the cpu led blinks once and turns off, the dram led blinks once and turns off but that's as far as it goes. The VGA led doesn't come on and neither does the boot led. I tried to update the bios with a usb and the bios button on the mobo however i can't tell if its doing anything because i can't get it to post to get into the bios. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, recently purchased an RTX 2070. Quickly found out that my poor old FX8320 isn't quite cutting it anymore, so it's time to upgrade to Ryzen 2nd gen for a stop gap until Ryzen 3rd gen comes out. I currently have a ASUS Sabertooth R2.0 mobo, looking for suggestions on an AM4 board that has same/better features as my current one? Not really up-to-date on AMD boards, I know Ryzen needs a lot of RAM, so 4 DIMM slots are a must have, as is USB 3.x. I've had a look on Amazon, and wondering if the Strix boards are any good? Not quite sold on the Crosshair platform, as I had an AM3 Crosshair V board and it died within 2 weeks of ownership without overclocking, but maybe I should give it another chance? Any help is much appreciated!

I cannot for the life of me get 3 sticks of Corsair vengeance 4gb to run, when put in slots 1,2,3 bios reports 8gb, slots 1,3,6 system reports 4gb. I have never been able to get this board to post 12gb regardless of what I do. I've tested each stick and they all work separately so the sticks aren't bad, the cpu is seated fine and has no bent socket pins. It is driving me insane.. I would be deeply greatful for any help in a solution to this problem.

From the title itself, it's seem unfair to compare Enermax T40Fit (dual fan) vs Cryorig R1 Ultimate. These 2 parts are from different tier according to this tier list, T40Fit is in tier 6 and R1 Ultimate in tier 2. And the price of R1 Ultimate is more than twice of T40F. Here in Indonesia, best price for T40fit is around 35 USD, and R1 Ultimate is around 82 USD (1 USD = 14481.75 IDR). Anyway here I just want to share what I got by upgrading T40Fit to R1 Ultimate. Maybe this is useful for somebody out there. My build for this comparison: i7-6900K RAM Corsair LPX DDR4-2400 32GB (4x8GB) ASUS X99 Sabertooth MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X 8G PSU Corsair HX750i Case: Corsair Carbide 400C Fan: 3x12cm at front (pull), 1x14cm at top (push), 1x12cm at back (push) Thermal paste: Arctic MX-4 Test condition: Tested using AIDA64, stress on CPU+FPU+cache+GPU for ~30 mins Temperature read from AIDA64 on CPU Package Hyperthreading: OFF Inter Turbo Boost 3.0: ENABLED Tested each in 2 freq: stock (auto freq, XMP: OFF) and overclocked (at 4.2 GHz, XMP: ON) Tested each in 2 time: after midnight (room temp 25-26 C) and afternoon (room temp 30-32 C) Room temp measured using desk digital clock+temperature+humidity, put in front of case (the manufacture said temp accuracy is 1 C). Sorry, no air conditioner in my room... All fan curve tuned by AI Suite 3 (thermal tuning). That's the point, right? I don't want to run them in constant full speed, because it's not the real condition when I use it for work and gaming. Result: Discussion: Yes, your cooler performance is very dependent to your room temperature. As other electronic products in this planet, twice the price doesn't mean twice the performance. If you work in controlled room temp, and you can maintain it below ~30 C, Enermax T40Fit dual-fan is "enough" even if you overclocked it to 4.2 GHz, as long you can provide enough air from inflow/intake fan. Maybe you need to upgrade to tier 1 or 2 air cooling products if you want to overclock more, or if you are working in slightly hot room. Not temperature-controlled room, usually have more dust. Air cooling is better option since it easy to clean, assemble and disassemble, troubleshoot, etc.

So, I have a Phenom II 1090T and its socketed into a Asus 990FX Sabertooth R2.0 and soon with have 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 2400mhz CAS 11-13-13-31 G.Skill Sniper kit of ram. I have a 1000w Corsair RM1000X and a EVGA Geforce GTX 780 (soon to be water cooled) and the 1090T is cooled with a H110i GTX. Currently, its clocked at 4.0Ghz. I had it at 4.25Ghz but one of my ram dimms died so I had to dial back down to 4.0Ghz while using mixed OCZ and Samsung ram clocked at 1066mhz (the samsung dimm is slower than the OCZ kit). I was wondering if I could break past 4.3ghz, which seems to be about as high as a good 1090T can go. My voltage is currently sitting at 1.4v to the core and everything else is set to auto. Temps underload (Prime95) are sitting between 36C and 40C (Using Arctic Silver 5, will be swapping to liquid metal soon). I'll be doing a mix of BLCK ocing and multiplier adjustment to get my results. I'm hoping the faster ram will help with system stability and I'll be able to get a bit more from Hyper Transport. I was only able to get ~2.2Ghz out of HT due to my OCZ kit only being 1333mhz and I didn't want to push past that. Anyone have any tips about OCing 1090Ts that'd be helpful?

Hi guys, I pretend to build a new pc using an Intel Core i7 7700K with an Asus Sabertooth Z170 Mark1 motherboard, but I really don't know if there will be any issues because of the architecture, and since I'm ordering the stuff online it would really be a problem if I have to return it, it has to be perfect on the first try. Also, I checked on Pc Part Picker and it says that I might need to update the bios using an older CPU, but that's not really an option for me. Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you very much for your time.

I know the 9590 runs hot since it has a 220w tdp but taming the heat is not in an issue atleast til i swaped my motherboard, my original board was a msi 990fxa gaming but it cant compleatley handel the 9590's power needs, so i went and bought a new asus sabertooth 990fx r3.0 of which i had seen good things about. But with the asus board my cpu temps skyrocket when doing anything and it ends up doing a thermal shutdown. So far ive tried re seating and re applying new thermal compound (mx4) and adding fans to the vrm and radiator of my h100i aio but to no avail. Just to make shure i was not going crazy i swaped the msi board back in and everything was fine with decent temps even with a stress test running. Please can someone shed some light on this situation My build Amd 9590fx black edition Msi 990fxa gaming (old motherboard) Asus sabertooth 990fx r3.0 (new mobo) Corsair h100i aio water cooler 2x gtx 980 32gb corsair vengence Rosewill quark 1200w psu Nanoxia ds6 case And dor the record im happy with what my machine can do, and im not looking to start from scratch, so i ask please dont tell me to get anything differnt processor wise, i will take suggestions on a mobo in the 250 buck range if it comea down to it though

Hi everybody, Looking to upgrade my graphics card, I have an R9 390 paired with an FX 8350 at the moment with a 850W Platinium PSU. Any advice on whether I should: (a) Sell the R9 390 and get a new card. (b) Get a second R9 390. (c) Get new CPU and wait for GPU upgrade. I have a Sabertooth 990fx R2.0 motherboard if that makes a difference.

Hello LTT community, First of all, sorry for my bad English (it is not native for me) and my apologies if similar topics were already discussed before. Few months ago I have decided to bring my old gaming rig to new life and after viewing dozen of videos and reading several articles, I decided not to go with purchase of new platform, but only do upgrade of my graphics card. My old gaming rig: Core i7-2600k @stock ASUS Sabertooth Z77 Crucial 16GB KIT DDR3 1600MHz CL9 Ballistix Sport (CR306f) (2x8) Gainward GTX680 After researching dozen of articles, I did overclock my processor to 4.4GHz @1.335V. I wasn't very lucky with chip, to reach stable 4.5GHz I had to use 1.550V, so I've decided to keep it at 4.4GHz @1.335V, and temps now are not reaching 80C under constant full load. In addition to this, I did replaced my old graphics card with recently released Gigabyte GTX1070 Xtreme Gaming edition (overclocked to 2107Mhz) and managed to get ROG Swift PG278Q monitor (don't ask, I was just very lucky to get it very cheap). I'm pretty fine playing modern games at 1440p with high/ultra settings, even when FPS falls under 60 G-Sync does his job very good. Question I'm trying to address is about my RAM. Currently it works at 1600MHz which was auto-configured by XMP. I found many articles in internet about this, in some people claims that overclocking RAM have significant improvement over gaming experience, in others is stated that there will be no difference. Guys, would you please guide me, does it make sense for me to overclock my RAM to 2133MHz and if so, would you please guide me how to do it with my MB and RAM? Many thanks!

Hey forum. have any of you had any experience with X79 chipset and new NVMe SSD drives? I want windows to boot from it but Bios does not recognize the drive. In W10 the drive works fine after I boot up from my old SSD. I installed latest BIOS which was Beta, but no cigar. Still did not recognize. my current mb and cpu are fine, so I am not planning on upgrading these, but still I would like to boot from that NVMe drive. After some googleing I found some Bios modding worked, but does any of you have any experience or tips, before I start messing around and probably bricking my motherboard?

Okay so this is stressing me out. Is what the CPU doing normal for Skylake? http://imgur.com/a/3QhFz I ran a 3770K previously and I dont remember the utilization chart to be so... jittery when idle. CPU speeds seem to vary wildly from 1.24 GHz to 4 GHz. Again, this is during idle. Something is up and it's driving me nuts

I'm gonna build a new Gaming rig soon (and mild editing.) I will repurpose my old GTX 960, and i'll buy a 6600K and some RAM. What i'm wondering is, should i get the Sabertooth for it's warranty and cooling, or the Hero for it's overclocking? (keep in mind i'm not a fantastic overclocker) The other specs are below V.

So I bought some used parts from a trusted friend - Motherboard ASUS Sabertooth 990, AMD FX 8150 and 16 gigs of Corsair DDR. To make all that work I bought a NZXT 550W 80+ Bronze power supply, and a 1TB WD caviar blue drive where I installed Windows 10. I already had an MSI GTX 950 from a previous computer, so I used that. After setting it all up in the case (NZXT S340), the system was working fine. I also replaced the CMOS battery so all settings went to default. Entered BIOS and set up optimized values. My friend told me he used to work with it on the "performance" EZ bios setting, which sets the processor to 3900 mhz, which is the turbo boost value, all the time. So I went in and clicked that setting. Other than that, it has a couple 120 mm fans, a PCI WiFi card from TPLink (which I am aware of, is not very good), USB mouse and keyboard. Downloaded latest drivers directly from nVidia, and to test the system I downloaded World of Tanks. I was playing normally, great performance all around, not dipping under 60fps, and then all of the suddenly after maybe an hour, the screen and sound froze and my heart dropped... I hate these kinds of problems with very vague symptoms and no error messages. I cursed and then rebooted, started playing again, and this time it happened in less time than before. Third time, I barely got through one single match. Gave up on playing the game altogether and ran FurBench, checked my components temperatures with HWMonitor. The GFX card is not going over 65º C. Then ran Prime95 to torture mode, the CPU is not going over 40, 45... so it's very likely it's not a thermal issue. Ran both stress tests at the same time for a little while and the computer is not freezing up like it did in game! Nevertheless I started changing things up in BIOS, I didn't actually overclock the CPU or memory before hand, just tried the Performance mode like my buddy suggested. My suspicions lie on the power supply. Is 550W not enough for this system? The graphics card is not a power hog, it even has a 6 pin connector going to it. I also doubt the card is bad, it ran without problems for a year on that previous PC. Anyway I would like to hear opinions/steps to try/suggestions on this.

I'm putting together a build with a Intel-Core-i7-6700K and a Asus SABERTOOTH Z170 S . I am looking to use a G.Skill Trident Z 32GB 8X4 3600 kit for ram, but am unsure if there will be complications or not. Looking at the Asus QVL(PDF) list, it is not listed. Has anyone used these components together or know if there will be problems? Thanks!

Hi guys, This is my first build that I did for myself. Its got a couple issues I'm working out, but it works wonderfully and I'm incredibly impressed by the performance so far. However, the plan when buying the chip and board, was to overclock to 4.0-4.2GHz. So I tried to overclock the chip. No matter what I do it absolutely refuses to overclock. It reaches 3.8GHz and simply sits there. The multiplier is still set to 42 at the moment and I've had the voltage turned up past 1.3V. My system never crashed and never seemed unstable. It thermal throttled once because the Noctua fan wasn't spinning on the radiator but I fixed that and again it absolutely refuses. I've looked through motherboard settings and tried to figure it out, but I simply can't find out why it won't break 3.8. I made sure that I have the current BIOS and I did out of the box. I haven't had any issues with the system at all actually, but it simply refuses and its pissing me off. I'm opening it up to put in the 850 pros this weekend and to redo all my fan headers so if I need to crack it open it'd be nice to know sooner rather than later. All and any help at all is greatly appreciated. Build is posted in the link below for full parts list.
