ASUS P9X79 LE LGA 2011 Intel X79 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with USB BIOS
ASUS P9X79 Pro Motherboard Review
|
OK, just to start; this is a brand new motherboard, as well as the rest of the hardware components. I already have had this up an running, with zero issues and Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit installed; played Battlefield 3 max settings, 1080p, 64 player online perfectly - just as an example. So this is NOT a hardware issue - everything is brand new out of the box. The only reason why I'm running into boot issues now is due to my own mistake, (probably from being way too tired).
First thing is first.. I made a very big, and stupid mistake. When I went to ASUS's website to download the newest bios version for my ASUS P9X79 Pro Motherboard BIOS so I have enhanced capability for overclocking my CPU and GPU. The 2002 version to be exact. The problem, I misread something entirely and ignored the fact that I actually need the converter ROM file because of my BIOS version being older. It was version 0806 as the PROM code states on the Motherboard.

Motherboards taken to the extreme ...
If the Intel Sandy Bridge-E processor series is going to do anything, then it's igniting a series of hardware upgrades amongst the hardcore hardware aficionado's of you. That's right, the X79 chipset based motherboards have arrived and there's okay, good, better and best (it works vice versa for your wallet btw). As such it's now time to cover one of the most high-end enthusiast X79 motherboards we could lay our hands on, it's the ASUS Rampage IV Extreme.
