I have changed my order to the K7 and bought a Noctua cooler for the time being,

still not heard anything from NZXT what a joke.

Did you pre-order with OCUK or another retailer?

Thanks for the quick responses.

To clarify, you're telling me the cooler won't fit if I don't buy this, correct?

I think you should have got that in the box with your H110. If you cant find it then yes you would need one of those.

OCUK and another retailer as well

Ah, fair enough. Best to play it safe and cancel whoever doesn't come in first

Vakas · 9 Mar 2017 at 19:12

in the bios oe there will be a number printed on the board itself and on the box too it has it on Gigabyte ones

Loque · 10 Mar 2017 at 14:15

it's written on the board under the graphics card where it says CROSSHAIR VI HERO

Marvelous, I'll be feeding that into my computer tonight.
Strange numbering system for the BIOSes. It started with three digits, then there were two four digit BIOSes (the second one of those not on the main ASUS product site) and now it's back to three digits again.

Good luck guys still no k7 why is there such a shortage

Zhuni · 10 Mar 2017 at 17:53

Glad they got new bios out! good luck guys!

Well lost the memory OC of 3200mhz and back on 2666 now, otherwise that seems like it so far. Its running the mem in 2T though which is ...weird?

~edit~

few people reporting both losing 3200 and 2T command line on the overclock site so I'm not the only one.

Probably worth it in the meantime for no bricking though.

Yaayuh! · 10 Mar 2017 at 19:00

Indeed, I can confirm that also.

I can't get above 2666MHz and the Command Rate is set at 2T now.

There's also something strange with teh temperatures still. Idle and browsing the net the temperature was between 38c and 60c. I played BF1 for a whole round and apparently got to 62c....
No idea what's going on.

Loque · 10 Mar 2017 at 19:32

I might hold off on updating until those memory issues are addressed then.

Weird. I've got normal behaviour but small reductions in idle/browsing.
