because of those kind of videos i was able to try a dual x99 Chinese board myself and build with some dual xeons a 40core, 32GB monster server water cooled and with nvme drives for under 500€! The board and the entire server works as a VM station now for 5 months non stop! loving it! Thanks again
@@AdrianSimiOFFICIAL late reply but if anyone considers this to install windows then install pro version of win 10 or 11 because other versions don’t support dual processors
Just built a single CPU X99 system myself, but with much more average specs. Love playing with all those threads. -Xeon E5 2670 v3 12C/24T Haswell-EP w/Cooler Master Hyper 212 BE -32GB 2133MHz DDR4 Registered ECC RAM (4x 8GB quad channel) -Machinist RS9 X99 mATX motherboard -Gigabyte GTX 1650 Super OC 4GB GDDR6 -EVGA 500w 80 Plus PSU -WD Black SN750 500GB PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSD (windows, apps, virtual machines) -WD Black 4TB 7200rpm 3.5" SATA HDD (mass storage) -3x 120mm intake & 3x 120mm exhaust fans (Arctic) -Cooler Master Q500L ATX case
Those Snowman M-X6 coolers are fantastic. I use one on my Xeon 1680V2 (8c/16t) and even with a 4.5GHz overclock the cooler manages to keep the CPU in check, which I really did not expect! Granted, this was at a locked 100% fan speed and on an open testbench, but I was absolutely impressed by the little snowman.
hey man, i live in the netherlands and we have this thing around christmas time called "surprise". its basically where you make a present for someone else of the group you do it with (chosen at random). i have my dad and im making a GIANT beer bottle and i wanted to ask you what beers you whould reccomend. my dad drinks a lot of special Belgian beers. i would like to get some weird beers and i have already chosen a few like a beer with a taste of a cake thing we eat here a lot, "caramel fudge stout", and "christmas ale". thanks already!!!
I'm no beer expert, but I'd say it would kind of depend on the types of beer he prefers. If he likes IPA's I'd recommend Mannenliefde made by Oedipus, it's a Dutch beer and it looks rather weird, though taste wise it's one of my personal favourites.
May be good for a 720-1080p multi-gamer streaming setup on low to med settings depending on the games but you listed all the reasons I stopped bothering with the old 2011 socket platforms or anything from that era. I had a ThinkStation P700 with dual E5-2670 V3's and tested it against my gaming rig at the time which had a R5 3600. The 3600 stomped all over the system in every aspect. It was so disappointing. That's the problem with these 5+ yr old platforms. Even with double the cores and threads or triple them, they have a hard time competing on any level and usually run way more power hungry to boot.
Damn, imagine an old DUAL SOCKET, SERVER platform being bad for gaming. Simply surreal how that could be the case. I mean how could LOW CLOCKSPEEDS paired with OLDER CORES be worse than a MODERN CPU with HIGHER CLOCKSPEEDS and LESS CORES. It's not like most games can only really capitalize on at most 4-8 cores, amazing how a bad use case can result in bad performance, who woulda thunk.
Be interesting to see if shrouding those coolers in a tunnel config like that makes any difference to airflow/cooling - its pretty much the classic rotor-stator-rotor-stator config generally used to build pressure. (to be clear - mostly as an academic exercise - i know it wouldnt be a meaningful diff)
17:30 Lord Hobo Brewing...i literally just drove by there a couple hours ago. only 25min from my house; will have to try it some time. thanks for the review 🍺
Hey Jeff, To add a pair of cents of mine: I own the Asus relative of this motherboard since many years, it's been my homelab mule (Z10PED16). I managed to make an Asus Hyper x16 board work by manually editing the AMI bios. The weird thing, which might be related either to the BIOS itself or to the chipset, is that only some slots support bifurcation. I had no opportunity to expose the dropdown in the BIOS itself, but I was able to turn one of such slots into x4x4x4x4 mode almost-flawlessly. Looking for the string "x4x4" helped a lot... Also: one of the slots related to the same CPU started being a bit unstable after the BIOS mod. A BIOS flashback cured it, so it shouldn't be a definitive damage! Definitely one of my favourite platforms, on which I learned a lot, even tho now I'd pay for a TR Pro to replace all of them!
I built something similar about 2 years ago with 2x E5-2640v3 cpus that were from decommissioned dell servers. 32 core NAS machine ftw, cheap as chips to build. Only downside is power usage, but hey, I’m gone all solar so at least the carbon footprint isn’t as bad as it could be all things considered.
Hi! 13:30 surprisingly cold temperature for processors. I was also initially happy about this when the temperature of two xeon e5 2680 v4 did not exceed 45 degrees Celsius. But I was very upset when I noticed that the power consumption of the processors is within 65-75 watts. Is there a way to increase the consumption to the base indicators of 120 watts as stated for e5 2680 v4?
It makes sense to have the front panel connectors at the top, considering basically every case in the last decade has all the connectivity at the top of the case. I guess the downside is though it becomes more complex having to do traces down to the bottom of the board to the chipset for USB and audio.
Interesting. I ran a Tt P5 for a few years, my takeaway from that experience was a Dustbunny breeding center. Fairly recently, I build me a TrueNAS system based around one of those chinesium "Dual X79" boards, I stuck it in an old Coolermaster Cosmos2 case and glad of it; turns out that board was actually SSI-CEB sized.. barely any of the standoffs aligned but _FINALLY_; that case looks like it's properly filled. Props to your cooler alignment, that turbine-like assembly looks almost purposefully designed.
I love working with the Chinese "x79" boards, haven't had a bad experience with any of the 4 systems I built. Still running an e5-2689 with an nvme ssd, quad channel ram and a 5600 xt as my main rig.
If this board fits in a 4U Rosewill rack mount chassis, it would make a good dedicated injest and encode rig. I still rip blurays (yes I admitted that in public) and run the large files through handbrake before adding them to my emby server.
2:13 - im sad some motherboards have removed the ps/2 combo port even.. I guess its probably time to make some modern PCB replacements for my old keyboards.
@@p_serdiuk Agree. My cheap blue triangle plug in ones work fine with anything I connect to it but my branded Belkin one leads to stuck keys and laggy mouse. The Monoprice adapter seems to be the cheapest on Amazon now and I would tend to trust that brand.
New sub here, long time lurker. Do you think something like the Qemu version of running OS X would work with a single or dual PCI-e GPU? I thought this might be a nice test bench for running Mac OS X via Linux with Qemu or a hypervisor.
I'm curious about the overclocking mod you used. Is it possible to slightly undervolt to get around TDP? I have a boatload of these xeons. Nice video btw.
i have a dual x79 chinese board running inside my 2012 Raidmax Agusta case, i had to modify the case slightly by putting 3 inch wide from top to bottom behind the motherboard
According to this wiki page E-ATX is 12 × 13 in (305 × 330 mm). Screw holes not completely compatible with some ATX cases. Designed for dual CPUs, and quad double slot video cards. That is the "claimed" dimensions on the mobo's website
why would a homelaber by one of these vs a user dell r730 (or the like). per ebay, it seems this motherboard by itself goes for $300ish shipped, while one can get an r730(even xd) for around $500 shipped, and that comes with a chasis, backplane, power supplies and what not. The primary advantage I can see is more control over thermal solution (and hence noise level). another advantage might be able to provide more power to videocards, am I missing anything else?
the only difference is the all Turbo clock bios mod for the china mobos. But i agree with you. I have a HP z840 with dual xeons. came with 1100w PSU, 64 GB of ram, 2 Raid/NAS controllers, 2 NAS server HDs sold all that stuff individually and made back half the cost of the PC.
i picked up a different x99 Chinese board that had 1x pcie8 and 1x pcie16. perfect little compute node. i put 10gbe in the 16 and a NVIDIA GT 730 in the 1x. in the future i might flip that for a 2.5gb x1 and an x16 gpu of some sort. you have to be careful though about processors. lga2011-0 or v1 and lga2011-3 or v3 are different. hmm now that im thinking of it, that might have been an x79 problem. i ended up with several of both. there good boards to build with a specific purpose in mind. ill note: the lga2011-v3 boards are capable of pci passthrough. the lga2011v0 are not. and you dont really have to turn anything on in the bios for the v3 moterboards, its built into the processors since they have iommu built in.
I tested a very similar board which is currently my main PC, the USB all shares one root hub, the BIOS isnt great for much, but around a year later its still working and makes for a good workstation on the cheap, even runs 11 if you bypass the tpm requirement
Jeff I have aa knock off X99 dual CPU motherboard and was wondwering if you could tell me where you got the 8 pin cable for the second CPU as well a couple of screebshots of the Bios set up, Regards Scott
I went down this route for my editing build but went with that green f8 board with a e5-2699v3 and a 64gb 4x16 kit I got on Amazon for £245. I was going to try a duel CPU board but ended up stuck on duel CPU rail connection. Now you said it's bad performance I am glad I stuck to a single CPU system. I can always go v4 when the price drops enough. I was wonder if the titan z was worth it for rendering v 1080ti. I can live with h264 only.
I've been running a Huanazhi dual socket board like this for the last few years, it's ace, has no trouble with anything I throw at it from video editing to gaming. Apparently they're very popular in Russian regions and there's a lot of bios info on russian forums :)
@@goldeneagle8259 if its updated to latest bios then all v4 chips should be fine. 120w chips are fine, but you'll need a big cooler or an aio for them. I use 2x 6 pipe coolers with 3 arctic fans each and I still hit 80c under full load so worth checking your thermal max for them chips.
You should investigate and test everything, personally i run a stock clock E5-2620V3 so this x99 stuff gets me more interested. By the way the all core bios mod pushes it to the max single core? I thought it just naturaly maxes out the cpus at 32x or 33x. You should try to edit the bios like you done on the other x99 board and the 1660V3 maybe if you will have voltage control you could see a higher clock
Hi, A great build. Could you please throw some light on the dual 8x connectors on the motherboard. My 700W PSU has only one 8 pin connector. Is it mandatory to populate both these connectors on the motherboard? Additionally, should I be populating both connectors even if I am using only one processor. Thanks
maybe a but outside of your usual, but I'd love to see your take on the itx x79 board machinist sells on aliexpress (though it's really dtx, but they wouldn't tell you)
Love all I've seen from you. Can you do a how to turn your old iPone/Android/Tablet in to a multimeadia NAS server? Maybe even with a micro sdhc/x card???
Check out the e5 2666 e3 if you get a chance. It’s not on intel ark but you can pick them up on eBay for $60 a piece. They were a one off for AWS. It’s a binned e5 2660 v3 with higher base and boost.
Interesting seeing this mobo here. Was looking into getting it last month but also ran into the issue of it just being too big for a standard 19inch server case. Ended up getting a Asus Z10PE-D8 WS instead.
how is the Z10PE-D8 WS as I’m also considering it? Also, will it support turbo boost unlock on a dual cpu configuration and have all the features that this Jingyue board has?
Hi, hope you are all well. Does anyone know more about this board or PC technology. I have purchased this board with dual Xeons 2011-3 2680V4 CPU’s. MB works with only 1 CPU, no bent pins on CPU slot no 2. Power supply is 750 watt dual 12 v rails with 2 x EPS 8 pin connectors. Ram is not ECC but DDR4. Any jumpers to get 2nd CPU to work or is ECC Ram required. Code showing on MB LCD is 79.Waited a few minutes but PC stays on with no boot to Bios. All Ram and both CPU’s work. Any help appreciated.
4:30- who builds a duel xeon pc to play games? Besides me of course :) my main rig is running duel xeon 2640s... I've thought about upgrading but it isn't worth it in my opinion because the ones I have are more than good enough for me
Brilliant build. I'm trying to cool pair of Turbo OC'd E5-2667-V2's on Patsburg C602:. ASUS Z9PE-D8 WS. Using Noctua MH-D9DX i4 U3 2 fan but outgrew it for 3.8-4Ghz. I heard good about that Snowman so I wanna give them a go. Are these the most performance in smaller footprint for us Dually users? I can pair U12A in 2x fan if need but covers RAM if using my current upward flow orientation
Hi, I have an exactly motherboard jginyue x99 dual cpus. Can you recommend me any best pc cases to fit this motherboard beside Thermaltake P6? Thank you.
I'm no Chinese but I speculate its a Jin-Whey, Cool as heck but im a sucker for super micro's boards from the time period. The way they modernize old server grade equipment for home use is noble.
So you are saying that there is not enough memory with 128 GB on board to run Cities Skylines..... :) Awesome video thanks for the ride along on the build and for all the time it takes to make, edit and UL these for us mere mortals to watch... :P
it feels that manufacturer just randomly slapped server on the box as I won consider this motherboard to be server in any way (except 2x xeon support), no bmc, audio (why audio on server), no vga so need discrete gpu to display, does it support ecc rdimms?
It anyone needs a budget CPU fan that fits in a standard 4u chassis, assuming in-spec motherboard standoffs, the [Thermaltake ContacSilent 12] will almost always work. I did a bunch of research before building my first Chinese Salvage-board server, and this is the best I was able to find. Since then, I have built 4 more (for others =( None that I kept) and I only had a problem once. That single time, it looked like a minor manufacturing defect, and I was able to solve it with some very careful [CENSORED] with a hammer and [CENSORED] in a press. NOTES: - It is a VERY tight fit. There are just a few mills clearance above the "nubs" of the heat-pipes. Yes mills(thousandths of an inch), not millimeters. If you are going to REST something on the chassis, be careful. I can flex even the beefiest case enough to tap it against the cooler. It hasn't been an issue, even with 3chassis in a stack (not on rails), but some people do dumb things. You have been warned. - It is only rated to 150 Watts TDP. However, I haven't had any issues loading it FAR beyond that. I built and tested 2x160w CPUs + 1070Ti + 15x HDDs in the same enclosure. The 'hot' CPU stayed cool enough to avoid thermal throttle, even with all that extra case heat. But YMMV of course. - They were ~$30 when I got them. They still are at the time of writing, more than a year later. Not too bad for a 120mm cooler from a "real" brand that actually comes with a fan.
Hi Jeff! First of all, thank you for letting me live vicariously through you. Second, Ive been running unRAID for several years on an older Intel S5520HC motherboard with two Xeon 5670's and 24gb of DDR3 1333. I'm running several Dockers and 2 VMs. One being a Windows VM I use as a machine for work, and another as my pFsense firewall. But the main function of the server is running my Plex server from docker. Do you think this board would be a worthy upgrade while sticking to a budget, or would you recommend another route? I'm starting to hit some limits of the hardware I have right now, plus it's quite power hungry. Especially when running some dedicated game servers through docker. Do you have an ultimate unRAID best bang for the buck server build video? Again thank you for the hours of entertainment and knowledge you have provided.
The real question is if he can get it working on that specific board. I run a supermicro X10DRi board with dual e5-2680 v4 CPUs, the platform definitely supports bifurcation, passthrough, and vfio, but that board specifically might not
Very cool setup, I wanted to build the dual 2690v2 as it was enough power for me and less expensive, alas, I am too poor and have kids. Very nice and subbed.😉
Is it a good idea to keep them at 3.5ghz at all times? i mean, they have that boost for a reason. 48 cores on my desktop seems a bit much. they are pretty hungry for power so unless u go over 3.5 (and i guess u cant) i think its useless.
could we get a vid on the cpu temps? you could show us the temps related to the socket. maybe swap the coolers and swap their directions aswell. also if possible rotate 90° to see if this helps or makes temps worse. this could be a great video (even though the making is pretty tedious)
Wall mount dual X99 server to run.... something
Minecraft and a pile of other game servers.
because of those kind of videos i was able to try a dual x99 Chinese board myself and build with some dual xeons a 40core, 32GB monster server water cooled and with nvme drives for under 500€! The board and the entire server works as a VM station now for 5 months non stop! loving it! Thanks again

There's something about these dual x99 mobo is that it looks badass in a case
I went down this route for my editing build but went with that green f8 board with a e5-2699v3 and a 64gb 4x16 kit I got on Amazon for £245. I was going to try a duel CPU board but ended up stuck on duel CPU rail connection. Now you said it's bad performance I am glad I stuck to a single CPU system. I can always go v4 when the price drops enough. I was wonder if the titan z was worth it for rendering v 1080ti. I can live with h264 only.
3:50 missed opportunity to Segway to a seasonic ad
I've been running a Huanazhi dual socket board like this for the last few years, it's ace, has no trouble with anything I throw at it from video editing to gaming. Apparently they're very popular in Russian regions and there's a lot of bios info on russian forums :)
Will Huananzhi X99-F8D work alright with dual E5 2682 V4, which are 120W each.
@@goldeneagle8259 if its updated to latest bios then all v4 chips should be fine. 120w chips are fine, but you'll need a big cooler or an aio for them. I use 2x 6 pipe coolers with 3 arctic fans each and I still hit 80c under full load so worth checking your thermal max for them chips.
I feel like Ron Jeremy is going to come walking out with the build montage music 😂
You should investigate and test everything, personally i run a stock clock E5-2620V3 so this x99 stuff gets me more interested. By the way the all core bios mod pushes it to the max single core? I thought it just naturaly maxes out the cpus at 32x or 33x.
You should try to edit the bios like you done on the other x99 board and the 1660V3 maybe if you will have voltage control you could see a higher clock
I have an x99 dual mobo. 2x 2697 v3 and 64 ddr4 ecc reg at 3200mhz. Awesome performance.
Was there ever a vid on the multigamer setup?
Hi, A great build. Could you please throw some light on the dual 8x connectors on the motherboard. My 700W PSU has only one 8 pin connector. Is it mandatory to populate both these connectors on the motherboard? Additionally, should I be populating both connectors even if I am using only one processor. Thanks
Nice video, there is a updated version of this motherboard the Jginyue X99-8D4. If your looking for a new video, this might be a good proposition.
Hi Jeff - I've got a dual X99 Jingsha board coming - do you think I can get by cheap with an EVGA 850BQ BQ (110-BQ-0850-V1) power supply?
I love the CE mark and ROHS on the box!
Rogue! Are you in Oregon my man?
I believe he is.
I love all the features but really want VT-d for pci passthrough. Does anyone know of a similar board with VT-d ?
Thank you for introducing me to DiabloGato the band
Two hearts! So this video shows Jeff building a Timelord....
That really is a good looking case :) Interesting project
Aw, I was hoping to see the power cable setup
maybe a but outside of your usual, but I'd love to see your take on the itx x79 board machinist sells on aliexpress (though it's really dtx, but they wouldn't tell you)
It might just fit in my old Gateway 2000 Tower Case, if I were to manage to find one.
Love all I've seen from you. Can you do a how to turn your old iPone/Android/Tablet in to a multimeadia NAS server? Maybe even with a micro sdhc/x card???
Check out the e5 2666 e3 if you get a chance. It’s not on intel ark but you can pick them up on eBay for $60 a piece. They were a one off for AWS. It’s a binned e5 2660 v3 with higher base and boost.
I have a HP Z840 with dual E5-2637 v3s, been researching cpus to upgrade and never came across this one. Thx man.
Love the shirt, dude!
Interesting seeing this mobo here. Was looking into getting it last month but also ran into the issue of it just being too big for a standard 19inch server case. Ended up getting a Asus Z10PE-D8 WS instead.
how is the Z10PE-D8 WS as I’m also considering it? Also, will it support turbo boost unlock on a dual cpu configuration and have all the features that this Jingyue board has?
Those are the vids i subbed for 😁😁
Hi, hope you are all well.
Does anyone know more about this board or PC technology.
I have purchased this board with dual Xeons 2011-3 2680V4 CPU’s. MB works with only 1 CPU, no bent pins on CPU slot no 2. Power supply is 750 watt dual 12 v rails with 2 x EPS 8 pin connectors. Ram is not ECC but DDR4. Any jumpers to get 2nd CPU to work or is ECC Ram required. Code showing on MB LCD is 79.Waited a few minutes but PC stays on with no boot to Bios. All Ram and both CPU’s work.
Any help appreciated.
4:30- who builds a duel xeon pc to play games? Besides me of course :) my main rig is running duel xeon 2640s... I've thought about upgrading but it isn't worth it in my opinion because the ones I have are more than good enough for me
Brilliant build. I'm trying to cool pair of Turbo OC'd E5-2667-V2's on Patsburg C602:. ASUS Z9PE-D8 WS. Using Noctua MH-D9DX i4 U3 2 fan but outgrew it for 3.8-4Ghz. I heard good about that Snowman so I wanna give them a go. Are these the most performance in smaller footprint for us Dually users? I can pair U12A in 2x fan if need but covers RAM if using my current upward flow orientation
That first beer looks delicious!
Hi, I have an exactly motherboard jginyue x99 dual cpus. Can you recommend me any best pc cases to fit this motherboard beside Thermaltake P6?
Thank you.
I'm no Chinese but I speculate its a Jin-Whey, Cool as heck but im a sucker for super micro's boards from the time period. The way they modernize old server grade equipment for home use is noble.
I run two of these for rendering and storage using a couple Tesla cars for CUDA apps, I love them!!
"Don't forget to tune in at 7pm for nightly news!"
So you are saying that there is not enough memory with 128 GB on board to run Cities Skylines..... :) Awesome video thanks for the ride along on the build and for all the time it takes to make, edit and UL these for us mere mortals to watch... :P
love the fancy b-roll there!
it feels that manufacturer just randomly slapped server on the box as I won consider this motherboard to be server in any way (except 2x xeon support), no bmc, audio (why audio on server), no vga so need discrete gpu to display, does it support ecc rdimms?
I just upgraded to x99 with a single e5-2690v4. Did you notice the cpu price increase after the Alder lake release?
I was looking at this board too. Interesting results
Is the ram used in this build ECC? Or Non-ECC. The X99 is listed as ECC. Thx for the vid!
It anyone needs a budget CPU fan that fits in a standard 4u chassis, assuming in-spec motherboard standoffs, the [Thermaltake ContacSilent 12] will almost always work.
I did a bunch of research before building my first Chinese Salvage-board server, and this is the best I was able to find.
Since then, I have built 4 more (for others =( None that I kept) and I only had a problem once. That single time, it looked like a minor manufacturing defect, and I was able to solve it with some very careful [CENSORED] with a hammer and [CENSORED] in a press.
NOTES:
- It is a VERY tight fit. There are just a few mills clearance above the "nubs" of the heat-pipes. Yes mills(thousandths of an inch), not millimeters. If you are going to REST something on the chassis, be careful. I can flex even the beefiest case enough to tap it against the cooler. It hasn't been an issue, even with 3chassis in a stack (not on rails), but some people do dumb things. You have been warned.
- It is only rated to 150 Watts TDP. However, I haven't had any issues loading it FAR beyond that. I built and tested 2x160w CPUs + 1070Ti + 15x HDDs in the same enclosure. The 'hot' CPU stayed cool enough to avoid thermal throttle, even with all that extra case heat. But YMMV of course.
- They were ~$30 when I got them. They still are at the time of writing, more than a year later. Not too bad for a 120mm cooler from a "real" brand that actually comes with a fan.
Hi Jeff! First of all, thank you for letting me live vicariously through you.
Second, Ive been running unRAID for several years on an older Intel S5520HC motherboard with two Xeon 5670's and 24gb of DDR3 1333. I'm running several Dockers and 2 VMs. One being a Windows VM I use as a machine for work, and another as my pFsense firewall. But the main function of the server is running my Plex server from docker. Do you think this board would be a worthy upgrade while sticking to a budget, or would you recommend another route? I'm starting to hit some limits of the hardware I have right now, plus it's quite power hungry. Especially when running some dedicated game servers through docker.
Do you have an ultimate unRAID best bang for the buck server build video?
Again thank you for the hours of entertainment and knowledge you have provided.
EATX is not actually a standard, it just means “bigger than ATX”.
I've run both SR-IOV and PCI-E GPU passthrough for a VFIO workstation /server on X99 with a 5820k. Ran like this for like 5 years
The real question is if he can get it working on that specific board.
I run a supermicro X10DRi board with dual e5-2680 v4 CPUs, the platform definitely supports bifurcation, passthrough, and vfio, but that board specifically might not
Very cool setup, I wanted to build the dual 2690v2 as it was enough power for me and less expensive, alas, I am too poor and have kids. Very nice and subbed.😉
Is it necessary to fill all ram slots? Or are there certain slots to fill to make it boot?
Hi, thanks for the video, how much does this motherboard weigh in the box?
'be interested in how a pair of E5-2667 or E5-2643s would run/OC...... V4s with a higher Memory clock?
Nice video, Makes me want to build another computer, just because I can. Did I miss what video card you used?
i have this motherboard and E5-2695 with Turbo rated at 3.3GZ, but my turbo max in reality is only 2.7GZ. any suggestions why ?
Wonder if you can Coreboot one of these with the auto port script
I thought the second CPU would cook with the chain gang cooler configuration, in open plan, I'd have faced it opposite
Is it a good idea to keep them at 3.5ghz at all times? i mean, they have that boost for a reason. 48 cores on my desktop seems a bit much. they are pretty hungry for power so unless u go over 3.5 (and i guess u cant) i think its useless.
Thanks for the review i bought the sime pc with a rtx 3060 the best pc 😀
could we get a vid on the cpu temps? you could show us the temps related to the socket. maybe swap the coolers and swap their directions aswell. also if possible rotate 90° to see if this helps or makes temps worse. this could be a great video (even though the making is pretty tedious)
I’d love to see a budget focused multi-gamer setup
I recently purchased this motherboard I'm pairing it with intel xeon e5-2699 v3 18 core cpus can i put non ecc ram
