seems I'm having some issues loading some picks will fix a bit laterZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Today the NDA is lifted Thank GOD!!!! So lets get busy.....
Working with the Gigabyte Z77 UD3H and a 3770K on Dice
I want to say that Gigabyte has come full circle, the bottom line Z77 series board preformed flawless With the 3770K on Dice I did run into a minor cold bug at temps below -68c. Once booted and running however no issues going colder just dont freeze up and have to reboot, this was a issue for my chip I would have to wait for the temps to drop down a bit before I could get going again or start from stock and work up, other than that the 3770K ran very well with a noted improvement over the SB. The chip does seem to get very hot at upper speeds so I recomed good cooling for high end Overclocking unless you have a very good chip!
The Gigabyte board I cant say enough about as all the past bugs have been delt with and I see them emerging as a top player again without issues, the board overclocks easy and all you need in adjusments including to go to 3600MHz memory. I recomend this board as it is priced well and any user will overclock very well with it.
Being a bencher time for the show!
