It doesn't appear to work that way, a monitor has to be plugged in for the local X session to come up. And to add insult to injury I can't change settings related to that X session in real time if I remote into the PC as I would then be in a separate X session.

Freedom WSGF Edition Ultimate Desk Stand v2, I'm probably not allowed to link to the store so you might have to Google it.

I ended up going for the U2515H in the end, simply because I don't think I could have made the 27" fit! Stepped up from a 2407WFP but there's still a lot more screen real estate as you can see :p

Hi everyone, I am trying to overclock a pair of GTX 960s under Debian Linux, the catch is that I need the machine to run 'headless' and it seems that without a running X session you can't set the necessary parameters to enable overclocking. Are there any Linux experts out there who can...

I was just wondering if it actually makes a difference against say the best SATA III SSD? NVMe seems to have been bigged up quite a bit but I haven't really heard much from people with first hand experience.

Hmm, that'll do I guess ;) What's the boot time like? Does it respond noticeably faster than SATA-based SSDs? For actual day-to-day use I'm still using an Intel X25-M so I'm a little behind the times...

Very nice! Be sure to let us know how the install/use goes!

Mine's been waiting in Florida for a couple of weeks, I'm going to pick it up at the end of the month, worked out at £315.70 for the 400GB add-in card :D

An update! After continuing to pester Asus they have confirmed that the Hyperkit (the means to connect the 750 series 2.5 drive to an M.2 slot) will also be sold separately, available as a component in its own right without having to buy it bundled with a motherboard. The Hyperkit will...

Are you able to try to source come M.2 to SFF-8643 adaptors? I've been hassling Asus trying to get them to ship them as an aftermarket component with little success...

The advice from Intel is that you should have a X99 or Z97 motherboard with UEFI version 2.3.1, Windows Server 2012 R2, 7, 8 or 8.1, and ideally your motherboard manufacturer should have an updated BIOS that explicitly states that it supports NVMe (check change revision notes). Apparently...

I have got some updates, LordBarrass you might be interested in this! The 2.5" variants of these drives come bundled with the mini-SAS (SFF-8643) to SFF-8639 cable, the cable comes in the box with the drive! All we need now is an after-market adaptor, I'm currently working on sourcing this too.

Correct, this adaptor is for drives using SFF-8639 to enable them to connect to the motherboard. I made a bit of a mistake though, this Asus "Hyperkit" presents a mini-SAS connector so you would need a mini-SAS (SFF-8643) to SFF-8639 cable in order to connect a 750 series 2.5" SSD.

It's okay, copy and pasting the link works. I will admit to being rather jealous! When you get it installed and running could you tell us your motherboard model and BIOS revision? Also benchmarks if you have the time please.

Sweeet, I've been waiting so long for these drives! What's the ETA on actually getting them in stock? The only consumer option I can find that's on the horizon for the 2.5" drives is the Asus Hyperkit, which turns an M.2 slot into an NVMe-ready SFF-8639 port, then you just need the SFF-8639...

April 1st was yesterday ;) Seriously though, pics or it didn't happen.

Welp, Intels timer here is at zero: http://www.intelgamingpromo.com/intel15b/ssd/notice ...and there's a whole bunch of silence surrounding the release. Not seen anything on any web site yet, no products/prices/specifications. It's a bit of an anticlimax :(

Heya LordBarrass, any word on pricing/availability today? :)

Awesome, thanks DustyMiller & hawky525. Any issues with backlight bleed or the capacitive menu/power buttons?

I was wondering if one of you U2715H owners would be kind enough to measure the width of the bezel on the monitor please? I'm considering getting some of these for a 3x1 configuration so considering how it will all look!
