Cross Blade Ranger

Nice motherboard looks great.has a ton of features. So far so good. Paired it with 7850K and its playing nice so far. I would recommend. Using as a HTPC/ Gaming rig.

Not fully utilizing my Trident X ram at 2400mhz even though it states as compatible. It errors out. the highest I can go is 2133mhz. Still speedy though.

Not Working Currently

Looks Good

Currently not working

I bought this along with a Corsair CX430, Mushkin 2133 Ram and a A10-7850K. APU arrived today. Unfortunately it seems that the current BIOS does not support the APU as it does not POST. I don't have another compatible processor to update the BIOS so I'm stuck. I've tried putting the 1003 BIOS on a FAT formatted USB in .ZIP and .CAP format and booting but still no luck. Guess I'll have to return this board.
