    HI Atom80, I thought I would let you know about a very minor issue with the X7Pro so that you can feed it back to the team in Taiwan: Since I upgraded to Windows 10 I have noticed that the keyboard backlight only illuminates after you have entered your password to log in to Windows. Obviously...

    Thanks for the input everyone. Not too long to see what Santa might bring :)

    Best Upgrade to 5850s in Crossfire

    Thanks. That is probably a bit over budget though. Would it be a worthwhile upgrade to any of the latest cards in the £100 to £150 range?

    Best Upgrade to 5850s in Crossfire

    What would readers recommend, and how much of a budget would I need to get a noticeable increase in performance from an existing rig with two stock 5850s in Crossfire? I know I'd be saving something in electricity bills at least....

    **TELL AORUS YOUR WEAPON OF CHOICE**

    Were you planning to sell it as a package with the guns and knives? Might restrict you to selling it only to customers in the United States. Does anyone else think it is about time they got a handle on their crazy gun laws?

    **TELL AORUS YOUR WEAPON OF CHOICE**

    I think one of the appeals of the Aorus brand is that it offers the performance without the bling. Talk softly and carry a big stick kind of thing. May be this will appeal to some, but it would not be my taste. In terms of what we would like to see from the Aorus brand, I think your killer...

    I already installed a third SSD and configured it on the RAID 0 array. It was straight-forward to do this in the Intel Storage Manager. Once the hardware was installed I formatted and made the partition active then expanded the active boot partition to include the third disk. The only slight...

    Just for clarification, the laptop was working fine after the Windows update, but Aorus driver update application showed that a lot of drivers now needed updating, despite all of them being up to dste with Win 8.1 installed.It makes sense really as the Taiwanese website suggests that there are...

    I let WIndows update the drivers initially then used the Aorus driver update after Windows 10 had finished installing. There were no problems, just a lot to download and multiple reboots, hence the long time.

    Good luck with that. Mine upgraded without any real problems, just a long time downloading the updated drivers. I am pleased that I made the jump and the power issue is a very minor niggle. It might be something simple, I just have not had time to look at it in detail yet. Hope it goes well...

    Has anyone else got any feedback on their upgrade to Windows 10 on the Aorus X7? I would be very interested to hear if others are having issues with suspend / resume, particularly if someone has found a fix. Thanks

    I finally took the plunge and updated my X7 Pro to Windows 10. I looked on the Taiwan website and it seemed that there were a full set of supported drivers, so I guessed that was enough official support. The automatic upgrade went without any obvious hitches. It took about 15 minutes, then...

    Hi Atom80, Do we have any update yet on whether we can go ahead with the upgrade to Windows 10? Thanks, Chuffbaby

    By the way, do we have any information on when we will be officially sanctioned to upgrade to Windows 10? There was an interesting video on Youtube by Aorus which seemed to suggest that laptops are now shipping with this OS

    If anyone is interested I updated my X7 Pro with a third mSATA drive. The physical installation was very easy and after I had booted into Windows, I just used the Intel Rapid Storage Technology application to expand the C drive across. The only compromise I had to make was to delete the backup...

    Windows 10 on RAID 0 and Eyefinity

    Well I went ahead and took the plunge and everything seems to have gone smoothly. Windows 10 downloaded the latest AMD driver as part of the upgrade. It only took a little while for me to realise that it had configured the screens as three side-by-side rather than Eyefinity as the desktop...

    Windows 10 on RAID 0 and Eyefinity

    I was wondering if anyone has any experience with upgrading (currently Windows 7 Pro 64bit) when the system disk is a SSD RAID 0. I am using a Gigabyte Z97X Gaming GT motherboard. I also have a triple monitor Eyefinity setup with two Radeon R9 290s in Crossfire, nice and stable at the moment...
