I have looked at your case, I dont' see a mount for the h100 rad any place, are you sure it will fit?

Rebooting and testing. I thought all it needed was 2 120mm fan slots. On the left panel it can hold 6

that is your access panel, you will have dismount and remount it every time you touch the thing.
that sounds like a bunch of work just to reset the cmos or change some ram.

Theres space up top but i think the mid screws are too spaced out. Depends on hose length i guess. I hardly open my case unless to blow it out once every few weeks and when i do i scoot the panel over while leaving the fan plugged in... hm... well crap

test done

ok, lets save that to the next profile and try for the magic 4.5, thats a full ghz over stock.

I wonder if theres a way to make sure if itd fit?

 

[caddi daddi]

[RaverFOX209]

take 2 120mm fans and set them side by side, touching, that is the mounting.
figure 3 fans thick.

[caddi daddi]

yup, its in the OC profile under tools. Far right tab in BIOS this is the 4.5 setup.
Maybe Prime95 isnt set right? Because i dont know much, but i figured itd of failed by now when you said it 2 or 3 settings ago itd happen lol

 

[caddi daddi]

you got a very good cpu and board, a problem we all would like to have.
and from the looks of it enough brains to bring in enough airflow from the get-go. congrats!!!

lets get a few things clear.
you know how to reset the bios to bios default?
you know how to clear the cmos/rtc?
you know that overclocking can break your gear?
you know that i am not responsible for your choice to break your gear?

 

[RaverFOX209]

1. Yes. Down at the bottom there is a "reset to default" option. and Taking out the battery works too.

2 no.

3. Yes thus why im not trying to overclock to anything extreme

4. Of course. Everything thus far has been by choice and I know you wouldnt intentionally lead me to death of my CPU... unless of course its some cruel initiation of new members here?? lmao
