I have a e5-2696 v3 that I had in a gigabyte ga-x99-ud5 and wanted to be able to have more ram for my vms and truenas. So, I switched to an asus x99-e ws 10g. I got everything swapped and popped my ram back in.

Before I swapped everything over, I ran passmark on my windows vm and got 22,000 multi and 2100 single. Then, I tried the same test on the new board and got like 20,000 multi but only like 1550 single. WTF?

Anyone got any clues to what I may be missing?
