    i bought this board off here some time ago now, never tried it out until the last few days, it was a full box rex with everything there, was told it was never tested as the guy had 5 of them, was wondering if anyone has come across this before in their Rex ? the HDD yellow just behind the 1-2 sata ports flashes on and off in sequence with the LED HDD light on the front panel connector constantly, once the hdd is recognised both should go out, unless the hdd is under operation then the hdd LED light should flash itermittently as per its usage as i understand it to be but feel the yellow HDD light on the board should not be on also it wont recognise an external us…

    Well it looks like I owe you all an apology for being an idiot. I was doing some testing on my 7700k for hd graphics 630 to try to get some vindication and was getting really confused why my apex could only do about 1450 mhz on the igpu core when my soc was running "1926" mhz just fine. So I swapped back to the POS z270 soc. Boot at 1500 mhz multiplier just fine and I decide to double check clocks with gpu-z. To my surprise it read 1150! So as it turns out igpu multiplier is completely broken on the z270 soc, add that to the list of things that don't work right next to 1t cr. So I did the math for the bclk I was running with the multiplier I was actually running and it co…

    Hey guys, so i bought a ss unit and cannot find settings to make my 7700k a good bencher over 1.45v . So far what i managed to obtain on Apex 9 and 1.43v it’s only 5700 mhz cb15 stable. Can you share what voltages/settings you use to maximize your freq as from this point doesn’t scale anymore even if i push 1.6v in it.

  7. Hi lads, Hope this critism will be taken positively and somehow turned to add-value instead of just going in defensive. I've been an extreme overclocker in the past, yet, its been forever since playing with LN2, in the past couple of months all I've done with OC is some 7700K and setting records with 1060 3GB - nothing spectacular, so, do I even have a saying? I went to Computex with 5 other media guys, the team of 6 were covering Computex 2017 for the biggest online IT media of Denmark, not with focus on overclocking, yet, they were asking me a bit now and then considering the amazing show by G.Skill and GALAX. So here is my 3 observations with sadness for t…

  13. Hi Just a quick question about the user profile page for HWBOT. Under the 'Customize your profile' page there is an option for 'Banner:' that asks for the 'URL of banner image'. I have attempted to link images here to customize my profile page, but nothing seems to work. The space always ends up displaying a broken image link labeled 'Team banner' above my profile image. This is ugly, no one likes dead links at the top of their page! So... Is there some specific format or file type that must be used here? Also... I am unable to remove the dead link by emptying the URL on the 'Customize your profile' page. It does not seem to save an empty field. Is…

    In the old HWBOT discussion forum, there used to be a part for the Open Benchtable. I cannot find it in this new forum. Does anyone knows where it is now? In the OBT webpage for 'Community' (https://openbenchtable.com/community/) , clicking the link listed for 'Forum' leads to nowhere.

    Some things didn't happened to me and i did my best to do all my transactions pleasant for both parties. Lately i have problems with a user,i payed the goods 4 months ago and he still didn't ship them,postponing to infinite. Basically the one on which i am praying every day to send the things i bought is @kicsipapucs , sorry for this but it was time to go further as you show no sign to even try to resolve this.

  20. Just noticed my Kaspersky will alert me whenever browsing the forum that the coinhive java plugin for Monero mining was blocked. Was it implemented on purpose to mine some revenue for the forums / hwbot or what's up with that?
