Pls, if you can, put in 9800GX2/GTX295 and/or GTX590 too. Those did not work on X299 already, hopefully Z390 is not the last system to run them.

okie will see if I got any alive and will give it a try (295/9800gx2)

Btw, haven't tested other drivers yet but the usb ones for xp will work as soon as you install via device manager and disable digital signature.

you mean you dont have to solder on a ps2 connector lulz?

Anybody tried A0/1 bdie yet even just for fun? What did you get?

Yes, about same as before. Waza passes 10-20mhz higher

Yupp, my best A0 kit does 4260-70 12-11 wazza  compared to max 4240 on z270/370/390 but geekbench is lower for some reason, guess more threads means more memory to use, from 4350 12-11 on z370/90 went to 4300 12-11....

9800GX2 seems to post as well even tho the card is dead (artifacts) :D

Also, posted alternative USB drivers on main post with instructions for win7.
Should work fine but will verify myself tomorrow.

I finally got my CPU from a german online shop, I7 bc boxed i9 is paid but not in stock until x-mas obviously :P

In general handling was easy at board level, despite having zero experience with coffeelake R aka 9900k, oc was easy and reliable, I saw improvment on LLC-handling and I am quite impressed. A few results for the start

Impressively low voltage for 5400...but the efficiency seems low for R15 from the other point of view ...9900 exceeds 2400pts with ~5400MHz

What kind of memory oc problems encountered with ucode removal?

 

 

Would the ucode removal provide a small boost on other benchmarks such as cinebench or 3dmark?

You get limited memory frequency of around 3800 if you don't use the legacy overclocking option without ucode.

 

You need to test but cinebench benefits from having the ucode included

R15 needs micro code delete bios. -70 to 80 on 10900k here.

what does legacy memory oc mode change?

 

curious to learn beforehand since I still don't have my system setup

 

 

 

what benchmarks, if any, benefit from the ucode delete?
