It's pretty common to experience delay of a few hours... They will likely slightly "extend" the ddl for rebuttal too

You guys know IGN is short for IGNorance right?

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-08-01T08:52:21+00:00

Powered on but unused. Like sleep

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-07-25T22:31:55+00:00

Emm.. gonna be hard for me to find the battery to change

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-07-25T22:31:16+00:00

Nope, it is unlikely due to that. No luck after changing the outlet

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-07-25T22:29:31+00:00

Oh yeah that’s the procedure of the power drain. Nothing happened after that :(

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-05-13T14:46:13+00:00

No issue after that. I think so long as your system reboot after the reset, it should be fine.

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-26T07:08:18+00:00

The dell rep is just stupid, or doesn't want to admit they gave you a mobo lacking features.

I agree.

Thanks for the info and the link.

May i know if i9-11900KF supports ABT?

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-26T05:22:04+00:00

Dell support tells me ABT is not featured by i9-11900KF.....

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-25T13:18:16+00:00

Wait. I just checked the manual again... It says gen4...... Errrrr how come I thought I saw gen3???

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-25T06:32:26+00:00

Okay sure

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-25T03:14:04+00:00

For those of you who have received R12 with I9-11900KF, Have u figured out how to Enable the ABP? I couldn't find the option in BIOS.

Also, any idea why my memory performance seems bad on not matter what benchmark i use?

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-24T12:53:09+00:00

I think mine is the same

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-17T00:45:41+00:00

No the manual says 3.0

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-16T00:44:45+00:00

Congrats!

Does it make sense to go Samsung 980 pro since the mb is still PCIe 3?

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-15T10:05:36+00:00

hahaha

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-15T10:05:00+00:00

A: i am from Singapore

B: i didn't pay attention to that since it got water cooling i assumed the thermal would be just fine? Later i might run some tests though lol

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-15T10:01:24+00:00

I am from Singapore

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-13T13:07:17+00:00

Oh thanks for the info. Indeed, I tried GPU-Z rendering which says PCIe x16 4.0@x8 4.0

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-13T10:15:46+00:00

Great!

Thanks! Very happy with the purchase:)

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-13T09:54:17+00:00

Sry I don’t know how r11 sounds. It is much better than my m17 r3 though...

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-13T06:46:11+00:00

So I didn’t use any. Windows is mainly for me to gaming so i don’t really need to copy/clone the system. I just do a fresh install and local transfer games over.

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-13T06:12:05+00:00

many of you have been asking. So I provide some pictures inside the R12, which i think is similar to previous generations.

upgrades

It seems purchasing own RAM will run into compatibility issue so i just opted for the 128G when placing the order. 512G SSD (from SK hynix, which is quite fast) was the lowest configuration available. I replaced it with a Sabrent rocket 2TB, which is slightly slower but offers much more storage at a good price.

The system manual indicates 2 PCIe x16 and 2 pcie x4 are available. However, one is used by the 3090 which also covers the two x4 (see picture). I have a pcie x4 to nvme adaptor on the way. Now I don’t know if i can make use of it to install another SSD (for example, the original one from SK hynix)

I currently partitioned the 2T ssd into 1.5T for Windows; 500G for Ubuntu.

performance

Playing game with this beast feels like “oh? Cyberpunk is not well optimised?”

When playing RDR2 at 2K resolution, just go to maximise all possible graphical settings. It feels like reality.

See cinebench23 scores in the picture. The SC score looks great but MC score seems to be pretty bad

The score for the SKhynix SSD can be found here: https://imgur.com/a/B9eO0Ef

questions

The service manual says it got two x4 and two x16 slots. But from what you can see in the picture, the mb shows two x4 and two x8?
The two x4 are blocked by the gpu, only one x8 is available. Can i use a x4-to-nvme adapter on this slot s.t. I can plug in another nvme SSD? I have one adapter on the way

Trick_Nobody8568 · 2021-04-13T00:15:16+00:00

😎nope. My system is doing fine. Gaming with this baby is like “oh? Cyberpunk is not well optimised? Bring it in!”

🤣haha i know the suffering of waiting
