Just wondering as saw a review on here drop this morning, but has anyone on here got there's yet?
Have this on pre-order and planned to use it as a coding/design/blender/gaming station for the lounge whilst the girlfriend is watching her crap soaps. Watching the early videos on Youtube...
Hi, I work as a freelance artist/designer for mobile games & I've been looking to upgrade my desktop rig for quite a while now as it's starting to be a little long in the tooth & hoping for a little advice.

Awesome thanks, and yeah just the cpu is overclocked, with the ram settings as posted. Have them installed now so will see how it goes, think I had to modify the original settings a little anyway with some 8Pack suggested tweaks so fingers crossed it beds in ok.
Yep this! I work as a...
Hi all, been running this kit well for a few years now with the OC set to 4.5Ghz as per the guide, but wanting to up the ram. The 2x8gb sticks I got with mine were 3200Mhz Corsair Vengeance, will I be ok just buying a matching pair & will I need to tweak the OC in anyway? Cheers!
Hey all, Ive been running my rig now for a few years which is built on this kit I bought. https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/our-first-8-pack-approved-oc-bundle-overclocked-discounted-elite-tier-very-fast.18692676/

I've been having a similar problem ^^ see above (not sure if you have found a fix?) With me, system can be running all day fine, reboots when it's running now are rare that I notice but it definitely has happened a few times. Problem for me usually happens at cold boot or when shutting it down...
Thanks, looks like the RAM isn't supported at 3200 going by the manual (only lists 4x4GB as supported), really hoping the guide could be updated https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?p=29985283#post29985283 as the guaranteed overclock isn't stable on the later kit that was sold :(...
Really hoping someone maybe able to help with this. I am unable to run the kit stable at anything other than stock. I have the later kit with the 3200 RAM but cannot get either the overclock or stock (with XMP) to remain stable (random restarts, boots bios into safe mode and dials the RAM back...
Ok so was stable for a couple of weeks on XMP (new record!) then a boot failure and back to 2133Mhz on the RAM :( Bit frustrated atm as I've bought the gear to OC but can't even get it stable with just stock & XMP!
Have noticed there have been another couple of BIOS updates from ASUS since I...
So far it's managed to stick at the 1600Mhz but not sure if totally stable. May have had one random reboot (or a power cut) came back from dinner and was logged out (not lock screen as everything loaded back up).
Only other issues I've noticed today is that at one point my cursor lagged...
Ok, I've taken out the RAM, given the contacts a slight air clean, and swapped them over. Cleared CMOS, rebooted with defaults, then applied XMP profile 1 again (everything else at stock). Now back at 3200Mhz (for now)...
No QCodes only operating at "A0"
I'm pretty sure I enabled XMP shortly after the initial build and I was satisfied everything was ok. It may have been possible it had crashed on reboot or without me noticing at one point, and the frequencies had been lowered previously. Stability was fine though until I attempted the OC...
It was at stock with XMP on, so at 4.2 GHz like it is again now. It's since I tried to get 4.5Ghz out of it as per the guide that the random restarts and memory problems started. I never normally do over clock, but figured since I've paid extra for the OC gear I might as well get the most out...
Cheers thanks, will have a read through! Only other thing I had done was flash the BIOS to 1902 (previous to the OC) strange one it's only happening now. May try and reseat the modules.
Hi all, I've got a Desktop system I built a few months back with this kit https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18692676
A couple of days ago, I finally got around to following the guide and overclocking it to 4.5. Everything went fine, checked all the settings - ran for the day...
Strange..
Maybe completely unrelated but AI Suite won't open either, have just tried a uninstall > reinstall but just the same. After the reboot have noticed that the Core Speed and Multiplier seem stable now at 4200 and x42, and not ramping down like on the last boot.
It's like Gremlins...
Memory unstable?
Overclocked this build for the first time yesterday, (sorry n00b here so go steady xD).
Ran through all the settings as the first post, worked like a treat, checked CPU-Z everything as it should be, RAM Frequency at 1600Mhz (Using the Vengeance 3200 16GB Kit).
This morning...
Had a capture card to add over the weekend, so redid the thermal paste, thought I had put a little too much on the last time, wow temps dropped by around 5-8c :) Went from a decent pea size down to grain of rice.
Idles of around 20c or below, general use at 25-30c Battlefield peaked at around...
