My previous PT rig was based around a gigabyte mb.
My current PT rig is based around an Asus mb. Both have had their issues but with current PT version I use it works great.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

I just bought a i9-7940x 14 core rig, but I now see my old i7-970 6 core rig has enough power for VI's plugins and all. My old rig only has 12GB memory and since I use quite a few VI's it has been a...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

That doesn't sound right. Shouldn't your new i9-7980XE boot much faster and perform much better than your old i7 rig?
It does to me. My Windows 10 boot time is under half of what it was on my...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

You mean overclocking?

Not yet. I don't have any fancy water cooling so I'm a bit cautious about overclocking. But I'll let you know.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

So the conclusion from your previos post is to get a motherboard with PCI Express 3.0 x4 (NVMe) to get the full speed of an m.2 nvme drive?
