[sariahelena]

is this on a test bench case or did you build this yourself?

planning to switch my current asus p8z68 v gen3 to this baby. i don't know if whether this will be a smart(er) choice. let me know people.  switching out my haf 912 for the corsair 400r as well.

[BerriesMcGOO]

what tech bench do you have?

[bbaudrin]

Just installed this board with an i7 2600K, OCZ SSD SATA3 and 8g Corsair Vengeance RAM in a LianLi T60 test bench... love it so far.

Did you install your RAM on 1st 2 slots? If so, you should put them in 1st and 3rd slots or 2nd and 4th to get dual channel.

[DrMescaline]

Sec, this board got 2x16 pci-e that both work x16, that means if I put two 570's it will run it better than, lets say, GA-Z68XP-UD4 ?

[SuperFluidFerroFluid]

@DrMescaline Dual channel PCI-e 2.0 "SLI" runs at 8x on this baord. Only the pci-e 3.0 supports dual channel at 16x

[favici0us]

@SuperFluidFerroFluid SLI on Z68X-UD7 runs at x16/x16 and not x8/x8.

sexy setup

[Peavy262]

any boot looping issues for you? Ordered this board yesterday.

[GHzgr]

@Peavy262 Nope.

[6969razvan]

@Peavy262 thats what im wondering.I just got the ud3h and I'm a little sketched out.Let me know how yours is doing and if you've overclocked yet.

[SuperFluidFerroFluid]

You should had goten a z68xp ud5 instead and invested in a better cpu cooler :/

[GHzgr]

@SuperFluidFerroFluid

I made this video to show the BIOS features (that was my intention) of the motherboard and not to show off... ;-)

[curriaser]

@SuperFluidFerroFluid As you could see in the BIOS that he doesn't have a unlocked chip so he's obviously not doing any overclocking, so what would he need a better cooler for?

[SuperFluidFerroFluid]

@curriaser Dear Curriaser,.. A z68 ud7 motherbaord with a locked cpu and a stock cpu cooler? Doesnt it just sound all wrong,. or did he just want to tell us what the bios looked like then i could understand why he's not using a better cooler, or why he just put his ramsticks in port 1 and 2 instead of 1 and 3 for dualchannel :-/

[curriaser]

@SuperFluidFerroFluid why does he need an unlocked cpu for Z68? maybe he doesnt do cpu extensive tasks of overclocking isnt his thing.. if he doesnt overclock why the hell does he need anything other than a stock cooler?... he could be using Z68 for the Intel Smart Response Technology.. who knows who cares.

[SuperFluidFerroFluid]

@curriaser Because the main purpose of the UD7 board is extensive tasks, it was designed for overclocking dude,Read the product spec. both of you guys dont know nothing about computer parts and its performance it seems, Even the UD3 board supports Intel SRT "smart response tech,.This is like geting a fucking Gau-8 cannon to hunt chickens with,plain stupidity in other words, but that is just my opinion. I watch reviews to see how products perform, not to watch some nubcake abuse quality stuff.

[TheFirm34]

Dude you used way too much cooling paste! That's gonna give you way worse temps.

[GHzgr]

@TheFirm34 it is just fine... ;-)

[FightingNavyman]

how much $ was worth the whole thing?

[didiln]

Tool - Jambi



[FightingNavyman]

what song is it?

[Spartan117A1]

@FightingNavyman It's Tool.

Can't remember the name for some reason though.

@jlebesis Hello!!!

[stefanoskls]

Έχω μια ερώτηση.Το open air κουτί από που το έχετε αγοράσει...Με ενδιαφέρει πολύ....Παρακαλώ πείτε μου ....Έχω την g1 assassin και θα ήθελα να την βάλω σε testbench!

[stefanoskls]

@stefanoskls apantiste r paidia!

[GHzgr]

@stefanoskls

Δυστυχώς δεν υπάρχει στην αγορά το συγκεκριμένο. Προέρχεται από έκθεση (εταιρείες τοποθετούν προϊόντα τους σε τέτοια "tables" για να παρουσιάσουν κάρτες γραφικών, motherboards κ.α.). Δεν μπορώ να σε βοηθήσω λοιπόν. Πιθανόν να βρεις από την Cooler Master κάτι παρόμοιο και φυσικά στην DimasTech...

[GHzgr]

@stefanoskls Δεν το έχω αγοράσει. Ήταν δώρο μίας εταιρείας όταν βρέθηκα σε μία έκθεση υπολογιστών.

[deathtristania123]

kai gamo ta koutia re file den exeis idea pou mporo na bro kati tetio?

[TonyJaaMxO]

Θα ηθελα την βοηθεια σου!Μιας και απεκτησα το ιδιο motherboard.Εκανα installation Win7 και οταν εκανε boot προσεξα οτι η μνημη ειναι 1333Mhz.Ενω εχω 2133Mhz!!Μπορω να το διορθωσω αυτο καπως?

[GHzgr]

@TonyJaaMxO

Ενεργοποίησε το Intel XMP για αρχή (Intel eXtreme Memory Profile) στο BIOS... αλλιώς, όρισε την συχνότητα χειροκίνητα.

[Blahdabbadoo]

I think I'm more thankful for the track you added to this video. I've never heard of Tool, but album reviews mention all the greats as influences; Metallica, Rush, King Crimson and that they have at least 4 years to write each album, which is a rare thing to be afforded by your record label. He sounds a lil' like the Rush singer too.

I think I may yet buy a Tool album, but where to begin?

Btw I especially love the guitar solo 4min in, guitarist sounds like an alien from War of the Worlds xD

[crezzlin]

can you run trifire and still acess the bottom usb sockets and power button pins.. ta

[GHzgr]

@GRxXGEORGEXxGR

H άποψη μου είναι Z68X

[drefrem]

Nice overall review tou board kai na pw oti apo mousiki skizoume, kapapliktiko singkrotima oi Tool.

[EliteComputerBuilds]

[GHzgr]

@EliteComputerBuilds

Supports Hybrid EFI BIOS and TouchBIOS (you can make every possible change in BIOS settings through at Windows)...
