thanks Hilbert for the awesome review! Oh man, the rampage looks so badass and the new bios layout looks pretty cool too, tho im not overly impressed with the benchmarks, doesn't seem like big upgrade coming from a 4960x. I do wonder how far these new chips can be overclocked tho!

great job on your 5x-combo Hilbert, thank you. I'm already on track upgrading to 4790k and Maximus VII Formula, the last of last gen's processors, rams and boards. until I upgrade again only God knows what technology will be in offer.

i believe the rear usb2.0 ports are black where you've said red, sir.
Which article and page was that ?

Page 2 of the MSI X99S Gaming 9 AC Motherboard Review.
The I/O back panel reveals two USB 2.0 ports (red) with another eight USB 3.0 ports.
Nice review by the way.

games in 2015 -2016 will wreak havoc on z87 /z97, with this you're more future-proof. (haswell-e)
I don't believe this is true.

.. so lame. Thanks for the review Hilbert! Been waiting for this one, let me tell you. Im surprised to see the pricing vs performance of the 5930k as I really thought that it would be the one to get, but seems like its not so. Also, nice to see the performance increase with the OC.. I can now say though that I will skip this and wait until Skylake.. although this new chipset and cpu lineup would crush my 2600k, the gains are not enough to justify dropping 1k plus on a new chip and mobo. And so, I will wait 🙂

Now to decide which to get, that 389$ for the 6 core is cheap

Hilbert can you test the 5920/30k on OC? Not a single review out there that does it..

I still feel like my choice to upgrade from my Q6600 to my 4790K was a better choice than waiting for this. Thanks for the awesome review as always.

Im with you on this one, still a very detailed review, thanks :thumbup: EDIT: I might even swap mine for a 4790k that does 4.9ghz @ 1.370v, http://i.imgur.com/ou0Sk2J.png will see how that goes.. The one who wants my 4770k is really interested in it for LN2 lol 🤓

I guess I won't be upgrading from my 4960X anytime soon. Those FPS gains from the 5960X are barely noticeable. And the Read/Write difference is about 10% so nothing to write home about there either.
