![]() ![]() I would get a crosshair if I was keeping it long term but early next year I'm going to use this board, CPU and ram in my 2nd PC in my room with the h60 on it and going for the asus maximus vii formula and 4790k hopefully. I also found pegging the ram back from 2133mhz to 1600mhz and 1.5v from 1.6v helped a lot too. Interestingly I can play bf3 or 4 np without the 120mm or 40mm fans pointing at it and it never throttles. When running stability tests I have to cable tie a 120mm fan pointing directly at them and then it's fine. I fitted 3 40mm fans above the vrm and nb heatsink and it did nothing. Even at 4.5ghz after 7m of prime 95 the CPU is nowhere near max temp yet it drops the multiplier down to 7 from 22.5. I've since fitted a custom loop so instead of having push pull fans right next to the vrm heatsink there's now only a sp120 quiet corsair fan at the rear with a 240mm rad in the roof. If it's the same cooler as I was using it has a bracket that has two screws with a kind of looped end that hook onto the original plastic bits either side of the socket and then you do up both threads until tight.Īnd can also now add some more to the op of this thread. In the spec list it says it fits am3 but not am3+ yet it fitted straight on. I just used the amd bracket that comes with it. ![]()
