Yep! That's the one. Are there any guides on what I should be doing to double check everything? Most importantly with results that I should be comparing to?

GSkill Trident DDR3-2400s. It's showing as 16gb now. DRAM Freq @1199.8. Says dual channel too!

ASUS Maximus VI Hero. I got the RAM working, I think. I had to enable XMP. My temperatures seem to be at around 40 with my 4770k @ stock with a Noctua NH D14 basically idle. From what I can google, this seems high. I think I might have screwed up the paste.

Any advice on what's wrong and how to fix it? My first PC I have made in 10 years. It booted up first try and haven't had any issues (aside from things not working correctly). Seems like there's definitely a problem with RAM detection, but I'm not sure about the rest...

I don't really have any local store I can go to for purchases. Also, I'm not sure if this is against the rules to talk about or not, but is there any downside to purchasing a BizSpark key? If this is not allowed, I will edit it out.

I'm just putting together my new PC now. I'd like to try Win8. I should be going for 8.1 Pro, and it will perform approximately the same as Win7 for my gaming needs? Also, I haven't bought my copy yet but would like to download it now. Am I able to download it without a key? My bandwidth is...

Thanks! The first one is great. I read that before, I just really, really wish it has the Maximus VI hero in it too!

Are there really no good reviews that compare these MoBos? I could find one with some, but missing key ones like the GD6 and VI Hero.

Hi! My current setup: i7 4770k Gigabyte 780 Ti WF3 2x8gb Gskill Trident DDR3-2400 Antec 750W HCG Seagate Barracuda 3TB Samsung 840 EVO 250 I am trying to figure out which MoBo I should be grabbing. I have heard countless recommendations on the Maximus VI Hero but it`s never on...

Thanks guys! I bought it (Gigabyte 780Ti WF3). My first time ever in 15 years getting an nVidia card and my first time ever going with Gigabyte. Now..to pick a MoBo!

I figured as much!

Thanks. Last question before I hit the purchase button. There are no 290x non-references out yet, correct? Those should be out later this month? Are they expected to be comparable to this card? I don't really have any brand loyalty but I'd rather not go Radeon. It won't be a big enough...

Thanks! I've done a bunch of googling but come up short =) My guess is there's just none really out there yet that compare them all?

Just read the review given to me which pretty much convinced me to just pull the trigger. I see it comparing to other setups but why is it not compared at all to any other 780 Ti cards?

Thanks. I can definitely wait a little longer. I am just worried the price will rise (for some reason this card is the exact same price in Canada as the States, something that never happens). I really want to try out NVidia since I had such a bad experience with my XFX 5970. I guess I...
