the noise is less than before, i will see what it is like in the case, i think it is down to the air in the loop, if i shake the rad it goes momentarily!
I had the same problem for the Antec KÜHLER bracket
The other gripe I have is the MSATA slot is SATA - 300, not SATA - 600; I'd have happily paid a little extra
I still rate the Z77 E-ITX over the Asus P8Z77-I Deluxe however hands down
I still rate the Z77 E-ITX over the Asus P8Z77-I Deluxe however hands down
in what way?
Of the three Z77 ITX boards currently available -
- Asus P8Z77-I Deluxe
- ASRock Z77 E-ITX
- Zotac Z77ITX-A-E
The ASRock Z77 E-ITX is the cheapest offering if you shop about first and foremost (£35-£40 cheaper than the Asus P8Z77-I Deluxe ), I also believe it offers the best layout of the three and it is simply an amazing overclocker.
What isn't there to like?
doesnt the socket being so close to the pci-e slot limit the usage of somewhat larger heatsinks?
granted the use of all-in-ones negates this point to a degree, but the problems that some are having with the pumps etc are...horrendous? and kinda offputting? lol
