MSI Z97 Gaming 7-can't use integrated GPU alongside dedicated for quicksync OBS

Hello, I've encountered a problem with my new MSI motherboard (I hope). I can no longer select the option to use the secondary virtual display with the integrated GPU. This was not a problem with my old Gigabyte Z87-D3H motherboard. I have enabled the iGPU in bios with the multi-monitor support turned on, re installed both Intel graphics and nVidia drivers but I still don't get the option. In device manager and Display Driver Uninstaller utility the HD 4600 shows up, which appears normal.
I am running a single monitor, MSI GTX 970, Intel i5 4670k.

What's your driver version?
GeForce 344.75 ?
Yes, it's updated to the latest version.
In OBS the Quicksync option can be enabled, however the CPU usage stays the same while streaming and the iGPU usage always stays at around 15%.

Can I control 3-pin fan with MSI Z97 gaming 5?

Hello, I want to know if I can control 3-pin fan plug into 4-pin header with MSI z97 gaming 5 mobo
Thanks
PS: Sorry my poor english

I own an MSI Z87-GD65, im assuming your Z97gaming5 is similar, mine can control 4pin PWM fans on the CPU_FAN1 and CPU_FAN2 headers, and can control 3pin fans on SYS_FAN 1,2,3, all of this on bios fan control (i dont like nor use the Control center). The limitations of my bios is that on 4pin fans on CPU_FAN1 i can go to 12.5% pwm (as long as the fan can reach this low), while on the 3pin con SYS_FAN i can only drop them down to 50% (thats if you fan can start at that voltage, had one that needed 60%), the fan can be ran at a steady % = rpms or can be dynamically ramp up with the CPU temp, thats also selected on the bios.
Here is a run that i did last weekend on a Silverstone AP182 connected on SYS_FAN3 on pure bios, you can see there the different % and rpms, and in the bottom you can see prime95 run where it did ramp the fans with the cpu temp.

Msi z97 gaming 5 bios update help

Hello I recently purchased the msi z97 gaming 5 motherboard. It was working fine it came with bios version 1.0 and I wanted to update it. I downloaded the latest 1.5 bios from msi website copied to usb flash drive and flashed it using mflash. Computer powers on but black screen wont do nothing. I cleared cmos and battery and still nothing so I am pretty sure its bricked. I am going to store to exchange it for another one but I want to be able to safely update the bios without bricking again. I usually dont update bios unless needed but i need at least 1.2 bios to fully support the devils canyon cpu. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I read about the usb flashing tool in forum but also read that bios+me need to be flashed and I don't know if that program is up to date and will flash both files? I really appreciate it if someone helped thanks in advance.

Also does anyone know if it is dangerous to update the bios with a 4690k devils canyon cpu since it is not officially supported until 1.2? Is that why my first bios flash was bricked? I would hate to go and borrow another cpu just to update the bios but if I have to I will. Sorry for all the questions but I need to get my bios updated and I will not update it until I am sure of all these things. Thanks to anyone who answers these questions.

Crash by gaming with MSI z97 Gaming 9 AC/ MSI 980GTX

Dear MSI Form
The last couple of weeks I have a very bad crash,
This is my system:
Windows 8.1 64
Mother board: MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC
GPU: MSI GTX 980
CPU: Intel core i7 4790K 4 GHz
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Nepton 240M
Memory: 16GB 4x4 Corsair vengeance pro

Case: Cooler Master CM Storm Trooper Window
Fans: 9X Be quiet! Shadow wings + Fan controller
I use my pc mostly for gaming,
I bought en build my pc on September 2015 but now and then I get a very bad crash, the crash shuts down my pc (no blue screen / no Error) just a black screen with a pc that won’t respond on anything. The lights are on at my motherboard cpu cooler and GPU, but no respond. To turn my pc on again I have to shut down the main power switch. After 10 seconds I can start up my pc again.
I get the following windows event: id 41 kernel power
Scenario:
This began when I played Dragon age 3 in December, I got the crash twice in like 100 hours. (not a big deal) than I got the same crash once when I played GTA V with 60 hours more or less. But now when I playing the Witcher 3 wild hunt I get it every 5 minutes.
What did I try to fix it but won’t work:
- Memtest run x10 no error
- Drivers up to date
- The temps under full load are great CPU they won’t go over 51 degrease / GPU 68 degrees / the rest won’t go over 45 degrees.
- I got no virus.
- Everything is connected just fine.
I hope you guys can help me out.
Kind regards,
Tijs Dragtsma from the Netherlands

May be your PSU being too weak or going bad (I doubt though). Although you have 9 fans.. maybe try disconnecting case fans and leave only CPU cooler ones to work?

DIMM 1/2 stopped working on MSI Z97 Gaming 5, help!

Hello again!
Today I was trying out a different cooler for my i7 4790K, I mounted it and everything worked fine, but results were bad, so I decided to mount previous cooler again...
And here were the problem starts. After I mounted everything back (exactly following guide like before, thermal paste etc all done) my PC would not start the system nor BIOS.
I wondered what could cause it, so just to check a possibility, I unplugged one RAM module from DIMM 2 (they used to work in dual-channel at 2/4 DIMMs) and it suddenly started BIOS and system up normally.
Following this tip, I unmounted cooler's fan, because it covers DIMM 1 to check if it would work, and doesn't matter what memory I plug in DIMM 1 or 2, it won't work Doesn't work with any combination, so I can't actually use dual-channel right now, as only DIMM 3 and 4 work at the moment (both or alone). Any module plugged in 1/2 slots doesn't work.
All I see is that temperature monitor on my MSI Z97 Gaming 5 shows 10-55, 10-55 all the time, jumpy temps, everything works, but nothing loads. Just black screen, nothing. I work with 3/4 slots in single channel right now.
What the hell could happen? Please help me with this!
Edit: Is that possible I could move a CPU from a proper pin so it doesn't connect properly with DIMM 1 and 2? My cooler moved a bit before I mounted it properly. That's only thing that comes to my mind right now.

MSI Z97 Gaming 7 PWM Fan setting question

Hello, right now I'm using Z87 motherboard from others vendor (as***k), and now I want to change my motherboard to MSI Z97 Gaming 7. But there's something that I want to ask first. When I'm using still using Z77 motherboard which is MSI Z77A-G45, I can set the PWM fan to change it speed automatically by change the CPU fan to auto in the UEFI. But in the Z87 I currently use I have to customize it in the UEFI, so that my PWM CPU fan change its speed as the CPU temperature changes, it can't be set to auto and I don't like it at all. Now that I want to change my motherboard to MSI Z97 Gaming 7, I'm searching the review first. And I'm seeing that it have similar fan setting with the Z87 motherboard that I currently use
I want to ask, is it possible that I can set the CPU fan setting to auto just like the Z77A-G45 I used to have?

Quote from: Abula on 19-May-14, 08:22:10
What you are seeing is mulitple breakpoints of temperature, as you do on your AsRock.
I own a Z87GD65, and in mine i only have 1 true breakpoints, which is the temperature in which you want the fans to speed up, according to the temperature of the cpu. I als did a build for a friend on a Z77GD43 and it was similar just didnt had the graph, as it has on the Z87GD65 nor the new one that you posted on the Z97 Gaming7, but what i see is more customization on the new motherboard, with 4 different breaking points, i see the same restrictions on the PWM %, increments of 12.5% as it is on my GD65, weather its worth it, personally i dont care, one is good enough for me, i usually just spin down my fans to the lowest i can, and set the breakpoints for the temperature i want my fans to spin up, if the temperature is reach they will increase gradually, defined by the max PWM % and max temperature, this two variables (that you can change) will make the graph with more or less inclination. In the new Z97 Gaming 7, seems the same just multiple breakpoints, meaning you can have different inclinations into how the fans react depending on the temperature, weather its worth it or not.... depends on the level of customization you want to the fan control, personally im fine with a single, but i can see people that could like having depending on their needs, personally what i would have loved though, is to give me 10% increments instead of 12.5%, or 5% would been better, but 12.5% just seems odd number imo.
Remember, MSI only has 2 true PWM fan headers, CPU_FAN1 and CPU_FAN2, even though all are 4pin physically the SYS_FAN are not true pwm fan headers, they are voltage controlled and have much higher restrictions than the real PWM fan headers. And remember that if you plug 3pin fans on PWM fan headers they will spin at 12V that its the voltage that its handled by PWM fans, so be careful what fan you plug into where to have control on them.
Hmn, so since Z87 MSI use that breakpoint system to control PWM fan, just like my asrock Z87. So there's no auto setting on your Z87GD65?

Microphone issue with MSI Z97 GAMING 5

Hi there!.

1.) Vbios versions vary with-in models. This is due to different variations and improvements made in time. In order for us to be able to get you the right VBIOS. We need your serial number. The serial number can be found on a sticker on the bottom of your card or on the box in which it came.

a copy of the current vbios saved to file (use a system where card works, save to file, upload to some file hoster and add link here)

3.) If we need to check if thier is a more recent version. We can check your Vbios in one of two ways.
A.) Upload a copy of your current vbios somewhere and give us a link. You can save a copy of your vbios using >>GPU-Z<<.
B.) You can also just use NVFLASH >>Download NVFLASH for windows<<
Syntax:
nvflash /v >rep.txt [ENTER]
This will copy all of the information we need into a txt file you will fine in the folder in which you placed nvflash.

-Try to straighten it yourself using needle, magnifying glass and bright light
-Ask local jeweler if they can straighten it up for you.

Overclocking DRAM on MSI Z97 Gaming 5

Hello again
Since I am pretty new to overclocking, I'm having some fun adjusting clocks of my hardwares, this time my Kingston HyperX modules which were reviewed as having a good OC capability. I performed some tests using AIDA64 Extreme software: memory read, memory write and memory waiting time. I tested stock 1866 MHz frequency and then I overclocked it to 2400 MHz. Here are my results:
Kingston HyperX 2x4GB 1866 MHz 10-11-10-30-1T
Memory read: 26.981 MB/s, 26.994 MB/s, 26.966 MB/s
Memory write: 27.234 MB/s, 27.270 MB/s, 27.346 MB/s
Waiting time: 52.9 ns, 53.1 ns, 52.6 ns
Kingston HyperX 2x4GB 2400 MHz 13-15-13-39-2T
Memory read: 32.800 MB/s, 32.899 MB/s, 33.127 MB/s
Memory write: 33.778 MB/s, 34.439 MB/s, 34.124 MB/s
Waiting time: 51.3 ns, 52.0 ns, 51.1 ns
Seems like adjusting memory clock to 2400 MHz frequency indeed improved memory's read, write and waiting times. Voltage increased from 1.5V to 1.68V.
I also tried with 2600 MHz, but the results in AIDA64 were worse then on 2400 MHz and even worse then on 1866 MHz.
-According to this, I believe 2400 MHz memory frequency is a maximum that my kits can be pushed, if higher frequency caused performance drop? Perhaps I could adjust higher voltage manually? Motherboard changed timings and voltages automatically.
-Are these results good? I have never overclocked memory before.
-I guess even though results show higher values of reads and writes, there won't be any difference I can actually feel?
-And last question: how do I check if memory runs stable on adjusted frequency?
MSI Z97 Gaming 5 makes DRAM overclocking totally easy as it seems!
Thanks in advance

I can see the description of my RAMs, on the package, it says 1866 MHz, it already was 1866 MHz out of the box when I firstly plugged them.
Otherwise there wouldn't be 1333/1600/1866 MHz variants right?
Anyway, is that a good overclock?

MSI Z97 MPOWER MAX AC vs MSI Z97 GAMING 9 AC

I can't decide which motherboard to purchase.
MSI Z97 MPOWER MAX AC = 20 Phase, 1x Intel I218-V Gigabit LAN controller
MSI Z97 GAMING 9 AC = 16 Phase, 1x Killer E2205 Gigabit LAN controller
I'll be gaming, and having a play with overclocking, which is the best do you reckon, they seem practically the same otherwise?
Which one would you choose?

Cheers for the replies guys, I appreciate everyones opinions.
Been digging for some more info...

MSI Also Launches its Z97 Gaming Series / Z97 OC Series Motherboards
The Z97 MPower MAX AC is a notch below the Z97 XPower AC. It offers a milder 12-phase VRM to power the CPU, but one that draws power from a combination of 8-pin EPS and 4-pin CPU power connectors, and featuring a coolant channel through the VRM heatsinks. There's no PCIe bridge chip, but the board still offers three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots (x8/x4/x4 when all three are populated). Storage connectivity on this board includes eight SATA 6 Gb/s, and one M.2 slot. The rest of its connectivity includes ten USB 3.0 ports, 802.11 ac WLAN, Bluetooth 4.0, gigabit Ethernet, and AudioBoost audio with headphones amp and ground-layer isolation. The Z97 MPower MAX is the most "affordable" of the lot, at under $200. Its feature-set is more or less identical to that of the Z97 MPower MAX AC, except it lacks 802.11 ac WLAN, Bluetooth 4.0, liquid-cooled VRM heatsinks, and onboard OC fine-tuning buttons.
The Z97 Gaming 9 draws power from a combination of 24-pin ATX, 8-pin EPS connectors, and uses a 16-phase VRM to condition power for the CPU, which is wired to four DDR3 DIMM slots, and three PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slots (x8/x4/x4 when all three are populated, x8/x8/x0 when two are, and x16/x0/x0 when one is. 3-way SLI and CrossFire are supported. An EMI shield covers the rear-panel I/O, while another shields the entire onboard audio circuitry, and the NICs. Audio is care of a 100+ dBA SNR DAC, which an external headphone amp circuit, ground-layer isolation, audio-grade capacitors, and EMI shielding. Wired connectivity is handled by Broadcom's newer Killer E2205 gigabit NIC. Wireless connectivity is handled by an Intel-made chipset that offers 802.11 ac WLAN, and Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity. Storage connectivity is devoid of SATA-Express, but features eight SATA 6 Gb/s, and an M.2 slot. Overclocking features include voltage measurement points, and POST LED display. Expect this one to go for over US $200.
The Z97 Gaming 7 and Z97 Gaming GD65 are two different beasts, although they're in the same price bracket (around $180). The Gaming 7 features an all-PCIe expansion area with modern M.2 slot, while the GD65 features dated mSATA 6 Gb/s. The rest of their feature-sets are identical, even if their PCBs are not. You get a 12-phase CPU VRM, three PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slots (x8/x4/x4 when all are populated), eight SATA 6 Gb/s ports, AudioBoost audio, and Killer E2200 NIC. The story repeats itself with the Z97 Gaming 5 and Z97-G45 Gaming.
Barring the milder 8-phase CPU VRM, both are similar in features to the more expensive Gaming 7 and GD65, with the exception of two fewer SATA 6 Gb/s ports. At the entry level are the Z97 Gaming 3 and Z97-G43 Gaming. The two are designed for gaming builds with no more than two graphics cards, and offer some legacy PCI slots. The two offer AudioBoost and Killer E2200, but skimp out on the CPU VRM, featuring just a 6-phase one. Storage connectivity is consistent with those of the Gaming 5 and G45.

Is there any Logitech firmware update or software?
If it remains sluggish or unresponsive then I would contact both Logitech and MSI technical to attend to it to see if there is either a firmware update or BIOS update that can be done to resolve the matter.

MSI Z97 Gaming 7 - USB Device Over Current

Hi everyone,
I just made my first gaming PC, using an MSI Z97 Gaming 7. Everything went well, all the wires are connected correctly, but when I boot the PC, and try the setup (by typing the F1 button), this message appears:
USB device over current status detected
and the PC shuts down after 15 seconds.
I tried to unplug the USBs ports of the Case, tried to unplug the battery for 15 seconds, tried to boot again but the problem was still there. I also inspected all the USB ports, and I don't see anything strange.
Is it possible that the mainboard is faulty? Is there anything I can do about it?
These are the specs, if they are usefull:
MSI Z97 Gaming 7
Intel i5-4460 @3.20
Gigabyte GTX 970
PSU XFX 650W XXX Edition
RAM 8GB HyperX Predator
1TB WD Black
256GB HyperX SSD
CM Hyper T4
I hope someone can help me

sounds like something is shorted,
USB ports damaged?
have you tried rear USB ports and different USB ports?

have you unpluged mouse and keyboard too? assume they are USB one too
else take out mainboard out of PC case and place it over non conductive surface, like wooden table
then retest
and do you have a different PSU to try too?
