I can't decide between these two boards. Asus is seen as a more reputable motherboard manufacturer but there is no reviews out for their Prime A. AsRock is seen as a lesser manufacturer since they're a lower division owned by Asus, however their board has some good reviews as seen below. Do I go with the more reputable manufacturer or the board that is tried and tested?

>lower division owned by Asus
They are owned by Pegatron which have split off from Asustek.
Asus no longer ask Pegatron to make their motherboards, but instead ECS.
Asrock have been gaining their reputation for reliability lately, so there is little problems going with either board.
If you are focused on overclocking, you will have to wait on forum threads discussing Z270 motherboard VRMs(last time I checked there were none), and then decide. The Asrock have more phases but it does not necessarily mean the VRM in general is better(My guess would be 12 for Asrock and 8+2 for Asus), since the quality of the MOSFETs, Inductors and capacitors are crucial too.

I decided on the AsRock board. Can't find any reviews that show overclocking on the Asus board. Many review sites have tried the AsRock board already and are hitting 5 GHz no problem so I'm gonna go with that.

Been using PC for the past 2 decades and I didn't even know about this.
Thanks anon.

Mine's pretty basic and stock
Can someone suggest a large comprehensive icon pack? It triggers me when an icon pack is missing some icons or recolors them wrongly.

Keep this threads off of this board. There already is a dedicated board.

So basically Intel admits it doesn't have good engineers to make something better than the bolted on Pentium Pro core they've been using til now?

Another decade on the same fucking core? No, fuck you.

There's no way they can respond to ARM with this kind of attitude.

I recently purchased a second 7870 myst from ebay to crossfire with another myst I purchased new years ago. Unfortunately this ebay card has an overactive fan and is pushing 3800+ rpm constantly, even after using radeon settings to slow it down. The gpu fan stays the same at 3800 rmp. I have replaced the thermal paste and got lower temps instantly, but it still wont quiet down. My first myst is usually spinning at about 1100, so why is this one spinning faster? Could the fan or card be going out? The card is working fine and crossfire works well but I cant get over the jet engine noise.

Fan controller's busted. Get a refund.
>>
FYI, you're mileage will EXTREMELY very on a 2 card setup.
And also your cards can have different firmwares that could have different fan speed settings. See if there is any settings you can manually define in your drivers, or just could plain be the fact that you have now more heat in your case so they're going to be revving up more.
>>
>>58580005
Manually changing the fan speed on radeon settings didn't do anything. Im running the ebay card by itself with the side panel off and its still at 3800+ rpm. The fan controller might be the reason then. If I cant figure anything out ill just contact the seller for a refund.
/g/, what is the best system configuration for you?
Points for:
- design - up to 50
- performance - up to 50
- user friendliness - up to 30
- security - up to 20

I've started using CentOS due to work and I've grown to like it quite a lot. I've been using Debian for many years prior to this and never actually tried Fedora or CentOS as I was pretty happy with Debian.
Is it worth transitioning to Fedora?

Fedoras font rendering is absolute shit that can't be fixed. But yeah it's mostly worth it if you can get past that.
>>
just installed fedora on my MEMEPAD so far so good. everything except audio worked on first boot but my speakers might actually be fucked so no big deal
>>
If you use CentOS/RHEL at work then Fedora is absolutely a sane choice if you intend to work with it.
current rhel/centos version is repackaged fedora 19. The administrative tools are the same.
Most importantly you get to use all the development tools for centos ootb
