ALL of gigabyte's z690 and z790 boards have been trash with ddr5 ram compatibility for the past 3 years. Not to mention the numerous audio issues that they still haven't fixed on their gaming X motherboards. People should avoid any motherboard made by gigabyte.

All of Gigabyte's boards? Does that Include the ones you've not used and thus have zero data on? Either way, this being my opinion on the Tachyon X. How is yours where audio is concerned?

I want the Dark Hero... Does SA not have any stock. I did purchase this but It was forced. I couldn't get the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 DARK HERO Intel Z790. Im so pissed coz my whole build i spent on is 132k and the Encore is all i could get
@TheOverclockerMagazine16 сағат бұрын
Sucks dude. Yeah not sure why so many ROG boards are out of stock. That said, in many ways the Encore is a better board certainly for high performance where DRAM is concerned.. However if you care not for any of that, the Dark Hero is most certianly a better board especially for a R132K rig. That's an eye watering price for a machine. Incredible 💪🏾

PSUs are normally an after thought for most PC builders, yet it is the one device your entire rig relies on to work. It's sad that most people become penny wise but pound foolish when selecting a PSU seeing as it will determine the lifespan of all the other expensive parts in the rig.

Hello brother. I'm thinking about getting this motherboard, but the thing is that I already have a pair of RAM sticks wich I need to fit into it and I can't find the QVL for this motherboard. The ram I have is the Kingston Fury Renegade 96Gb (KF564C32RSAK2-96). Do you think I would run into any trouble with pairing these ram sticks with that motherboard? Thanks in advance.

Hi. QVL is always on the board vendors website on the specific board web page. - rog.asus.com/uk/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-x670e-e-gaming-wifi-model/helpdesk_qvl_memory/ The memory is in the QVL it'll be fine 👌

With an AIO I'm still clock in temps of around 95' celcius. When I try undervolting, I get the temps down 10 degrees. However it becomes unstable and Win11 crashes. I've tried -0.03 and -0.02 and -0.01V and still unstable. If anyone's been able to successfully undervolt to keep the temps down please do let us know! :) Cheers!
