Help choosing motherboard and features

michael · May 5, 2013

I might just buy Extreme motherboard if I have to pay only $100 than that of V Formula/Thunderfx.
As Extreme also do support Intel® HD Graphics, InTru™ 3D, Quick Sync Video, Clear Video HD Technology, Insider™
and only thing extreme MB misses is Sound Card for which I will my one of High End Asus Xonar.

By the way which Xeon processor can carry 20 VMs. would someone please comment on this, the name of processor?

Thanks,

Thanks,

the ThunderFX version about 35USD more expensive then the Extreme in my country.

but why not buy LGA2011 with Xeon processor if u wanna run VM?

Guys,

I just came across Intel Xeon E3-1245 V2 processor which also has all i7 3770k features, mote over it also has integrated graphics and Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d).

Does anyone know more about this Xeon Processor ?
:confused:

Nope, But You Can Simply Research It A Bit If You Go To Intel Website

What is difference between
Corsair Vengeance DDR3 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) PC RAM (CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10)
Key Features of Corsair Vengeance DDR3 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) PC RAM (CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10)
240-pin Configuration
10-10-10-27 CAS Latency
DIMM Memory Module
DDR3 1600/PC3 12800
1 x 8 GB DRAM Structure
http://www.flipkart.com/corsair-ven...18f48&srno=t_2&otracker=from-search&query=ram

AND

Corsair Vengeance DDR3 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) PC RAM (CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10R)
Key Features of Corsair Vengeance DDR3 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) PC RAM (CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10R)
DIMM Memory Module
2 x 8 GB DRAM Structure

Can these both RAM type support i7 3770k and Asus Maximus V Formula Motherbord?
Please suggest me which one to buy?
Whose latency is better?
Please guide... :respect:

1 x 8gb

2 x 8gb (looser timings due to one more stick)

Difference is obvious? They're the same thing.

What ??

Then why CAs Latency is different ?

Different quality of memory IC, or even completely different IC itself.

Probably completely different sticks

C10R at the end is hints that that kit is kind of designed to overclock. All the red vengeance kis should offer some clocking that the black/white/blue ones do not. Note that the new 3000 MHz sticks from Corsair are Red Vengeance sticks...red = overclocking.

Differences between those sticks, when run at XMP settings, will be pretty similar.

Not necessarily. It's possible the cas latency is a little lower due to it being a single stick and less load on the IMC. I'd like to see a 2 stick set of that red stuff to know for sure.

*Found a 16gb kit (2 sticks) of the red stuff and timings are a bit lower, so yeah possible different IC's.

Either way, don't just buy a single stick.

I will buy Red one 16 GB for my i7 3770k and Formula V ThundeerFX.

I am going to buy
Samsung 840 Series 250 GB SSD Internal Hard Drive (MZ-7TD250BW) than
Samsung 840 Pro Series 256 GB SSD

I don't see there is noticeable difference in speed among these two drives.

MxPhenom 216 · May 14, 2013

the pro is much faster, especially in write speeds. also has MLC nand rather then TLC.

All depends on if you want a drive for your O/S or something to store games, etc. on.

Guys,
I have one question please answer me,
Suppose If I have installed one of the best (dual band) Advanced Wireless N PCI Adapter , then will I be able to stream HD 1080P videos from my CPU to my (Samasung Galaxy Note) mobile wirelessly WITHOUT INTERNET CONNETION ? or it depends on how much MBPS internet speed I have?
I am really don't know about this.

Will this card help me achieve this "TP-Link 300Mbps Advanced Wireless N PCI Adapter [TL-WN951N]"

http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Netw...ss+N+PCI+Adapter+[TL-WN951N]+?productId=44408

Would you please suggest me any other better card than this?

Please please advise me. :respect:

michael · May 17, 2013

No one replying......? :cool:

If both pc and mobile are connected to your home router wirelessly, then yeah, i dont see why not.

that means I would require internet to stream :confused:

But then how come Segate satellite 500Gb stream HD videos to mobiles and tabs?: :twitch:

Wireless n standard has enough bandwidth for that so it should work fine, mine works ok but I can't actually remember the highest quality ive watched.

Ok, but thats why I have asked particularly about 1080P, i dont wanna watch 480p or 580p videos.

so my question still remains can we stream 1080p video without internet connection in home from PC to Mobile/tablets ??

what is best cpu fan speed controller device which i can put in drive rack ? please name some

there is not a single best fan controller. just search for a few that function how you want with enough Watts per channel to control your fans. Lamptron controllers are solid.

Hi Guys,
Please tell me which board has best Audio Vgene or V formula, I am reading in some review that V gene has better sound output than V formula.

Don't choose the board based on audio. If you really care that much you should get a separate audio card anyways. The Gene is a micro-atx board, so it's small. The Formula is a full ATX board with more expansion opportunities. I would personally go with the Formula and if the audio bothers you, then upgrade. The difference between the two shouldn't be a deciding factor on which motherboard you want to get.

Also according to your picture they both have the same thing, so are you really asking a question?

Choose the smaller one if you need a small board, or the Formula if you need a big board. Done.

Thanks a lot for your replies , I am really gaining a whole lot of information from you guys.
Yes there is difference in V gene it has Creative sound software.

But Yes I agree that separate sound card is better. :rockout:

My other question is:-
I am going to buy Samsung 840 Pro Series 256 GB SSD Internal Hard Drive (MZ-7PD256BW), so should I buy another say 60GB mstat drive for caching SSD,
First of all, will 60GB msata drive work as cache memory to my 256 GB SSD ?
