Posted January 24, 20223 yr Looking for ASUS Rampage V Edition 10 Must be in an unmodified condition (no missing or repaired socket pins). Preferrably with I/O shield. I'm located in the Netherlands. Edited February 6, 20223 yr by czolgista778
January 24, 20223 yr Hi, i think i still have my x99 Asrock Oc Formula, ES, the version with 4 dimms, 2 on each side. Pm if interested.
January 25, 20223 yr I would not take MSI as well in that case. I fried 3 motherboards (or was it 4) in a year while still running on air. The Asus "did it all" and never died (never fried a cpu as well by the way). MSI is nice to have for a daily while not overclocking. Edited January 25, 20223 yr by Sparks.nl
January 25, 20223 yr Author Well, now I'm puzzled...I thought at least MSI was a safe bet, however they also use that 'OC socket' thing. I've had my adventures with ASUS's X99 offerings and wouldn't like to gamble anymore on a board. I think pretty much any X99 will max out a 6950X on AIO/ambient if the VRM is kept cool enough? I've played with X99 back when it came out and remember 6950 being a stubborn chip, 4.3-4.4GHz is all they did without having to pump big volts into it. Edited January 25, 20223 yr by czolgista778
February 6, 20223 yr Author Played with Asrock but it acts weird. I found out roughly why Asus damages X99 CPU's - it's overvolting way too high by itself. Therefore I'm willing to give the ASUS Rampage V Edition 10 a shot. Edited February 6, 20223 yr by czolgista778
February 6, 20223 yr I never had a single issue with Asus, but then again I control all settings and write all down every run I make.
