![]() About the blown up hero boards, buildzoid seems to think that the failed boards has a capacitor mounted in the wrong direction. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VkO4wiEAY4 |

![]() If it has the inverted capacitor, shut the machine down and contact ASUS. I'd imagine we'll see RMAs from this. |

![]() Just got my wife to stick her phone in there and snap a pic. Bit fuzzy, but pretty sure it's in the right orientation. |

![]() ![]() Wife's vagine is fine! I think I got lucky with this one. The mb I mean. I can definitely make out the 6.3V marking on my chip and it is facing the right way. Will need official confirmation hopefully this week from ASUS confirming this is infact the problem. What a nightmare this must be to people though. Burning stuff next to your precious ddr5 ram that one probably paid good money to a scalper can't be good. I'd also hate to rip everything apart again to do a motherboard rma. GPU fails, no problem, it pops in and out. MB? **** that. Took me the whole morning to install. lol... |

![]() ASUS just put out a statement. Preliminary assessment seems to be the reversed capacitor issue being the culprit. They are going to work with relevant government agencies on a replacement program. Whatever that means. https://m.facebook.com/groups/ASUSPC...3559936060389/ Can't copy paste Facebook on my phone for some reason. |

![]() I ran Cinebench23 with 1.36v DRAM, SA 1.2, power limits off and XMP 1, moved from 22412 to 22689 score. Temps picked up on the cores as expected, averaging high 70s with max temp hitting 88. Mid way through the bench I realized I could open up the front of the case ![]() For now I'm going to revert it to XMP 2 with power limits off for testing purposes and see how it goes as I haven't spent any time on this to see how games perform. Right now, the PC is sweet. Everything just runs silky smooth with RT enabled. Whether the $$$ for the upgrade was worth it…..well….who cares, you only live once. But yes, it was worth it. |

![]() CB23 is not going to test your IMC for you. Play the games you crashed in. Stress tests are not a be-all-end-all for stability anymore, not since Comet Lake. |

![]() Yeah I know I just want to test gaming in XMP 2 as is since I haven’t done much gaming then move to XMP 1, test, see what up and then determine how to proceed from there. Then when a new BIOS come out I want to see if the volts have changed. I’ll then bump the memory back up for maximum performance. Part of the learning curve. |

![]() I was having trouble with the XMP 2 using only 1.35v. This 12700K and memory combination needs 1.36 for stability.
