Don't get me wrong the computer runs good and the benchmarks are average to above average my highest score so far in FireStrike being 27076. It is just an annoying little bug that is bothersome. I just want EVGA to acknowledge it's a issue or give a technical reason why it is performing at x8 !?!

My x99 setup has been working just fine without any issues.


 
Like I said many times already in few threads. X99 is pretty much only good at running multiple VGAs (even if Classy is not exactly trouble free for quite few folks). Once again will repeat also that the more workstation/server you go misery is piling up at alarming rate. X99 (as a platform because it's not only Classy problem and supposedly WS-E from Asus is even more annoying) has huge problems with RAID AICs (except really old ones with more primitive logic). You would be depressed if your old setup refused to work outright on X99. Not mentioning the cost where one card often cost over 1000$. It screwed up whole my plans for X99. With a lot of unnecessary additional spending to circumvent the issue of primary array library (at least 8 drives was a must to keep working). I sincerely miss the stability of X58 or 79.... Its not only gamers out there. :)

Still no comment from EVGA on this matter... Kind of dissappointing !
