The LLC works perfectly on the Hero and other ROG series including the Extreme.
I always used Level 8 LLC and it shows minimum vdroop during load vs idle.
I have never tried other levels though.

Agreed on that bro.

PSC kit, it wont run 2666 8-12-8 like I did on other boards
best is 2500 like I posted above in this review.

Hynix-CFR kit, needed 1.85v for 2933 11-14-14. Other boards just needed 1.68-1.7v.

Samsung kit, worked perfectly like others. 2800 9-12-12 at 2.1v.

BBSE kit, same like other boards too.

Something wrong with the BIOS.

Have you tried on latest 0804 bios?
